There were a lot of things that made Borderlands such a great game when it came out three years ago: the hardscrabble planet, the oddball characters, the hostile creatures, the diverse missions, the abundant loot, the powerful skill trees, and the novelty of all these things combined in a...

A ton of great mission writing and dialogue; Enticing loot and experience rewards; Intriguing skill trees; Rich; inviting gameworld

Spoken messages sometimes interrupt each other; One character ability is not substantially different from the core gunplay; Inelegant split-screen save system

Borderlands 2

Keeping a repetitious action invigorating for the average FPS length takes skill. For one claiming - and delivering - sixty hours worth of gameplay keeping things fresh sounds more the work of a miracle than design.

Borderlands 2 review

A great FPS / RPG hybrid, Borderlands 2 is a hilarious, fantastic co-op experience.

New depth; A storyline that's goofy; but good; Grandiose encounters

Disconnect between online co-op and your campaign; Feels artificially long and bloated; Side quests are uneven

Sweet game.

This game offers a new variety of weapons borderlands™ did not offer, as well as a larger variety of more sophisticated AI. Borderlands 2™ will allow the best customisation so you can really take advantage of your weapons and their elements.
