Borderlands 2 Review
In an ideal world, a sequel should build on the original, but still create an experience that's new, yet immediately recognisable. It's a fine balancing act that not many sequels or prequels can achieve.
Pros:
- Colourful cell-shaded graphics
- Excellent writing
- Incredible voice acting
Cons:
- Lack of a group loot management system
- Limited avatar customisation options (cosmetic
- Minor graphical issues
- Occasional bugs (enemies and boss characters becoming unresponsive

Borderlands 2: Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep
Just when it was starting to seem like there's only so much you can do to keep Borderlands 2 's brand of shoot-and-loot compelling, Gearbox rolled a 20. Indeed, it's hard to label Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep anything but a labor of love.
Pros:
- , + Five to seven hours of content
- widely varied new settings
- puzzles
- many fantasy references
Cons:
- - Few fantasy-themed weapons or skins
- experience sags somewhat when Tina's silent, ?

Borderlands 2 nearly perfects the blend of shooter and role-playing game (review)
Borderlands 2 is everything fans of the original could have hoped for. No, it doesn't mess with a formula that already proved itself. Instead it supports the framework for a great role-playing game with a bigger world, while offering more customization options for its players.
Pros:
- Borderlands 2 is a huge game
- Completing the story while doing only a fraction of the side quests takes about 30 hours
- Now, add to that all of those extra missions, and you have an even longer experience.
Cons:
- While plenty of Borderlands 2's side quests send you to interesting and new locations, too many require you to transverse large dungeons that you've already cleared
- These levels are fun the first time, but it's annoying and tedious to play through them again, with little (sometimes very little)...

Borderlands 2 Review
It's always awesome to see the growth of a brand beyond "risk" to utterly "backable". This is the case with Gearbox Software's Borderlands IP, a game that sprung up out of nowhere and pitched the ludicrous idea of marrying RPGs (and a bit of the MMORPG) with first-person shooters.

Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 deserves at least a nomination for Game of the Year 2012. First, let's get one thing out of the way. It's a lot-an awful lot-like the first game. The overall gameplay, character synergy, loot system, controls, and humor are nigh identical. Nighdentical.
Pros:
- 87 billion guns mean the way you play the game is constantly changing
- An improved story and even more over-the-top characters and jokes
- Tailored to a rich
- rewarding multiplayer experience that's entirely unique
Cons:
- So much like the first game
- you might end up calling it "Borderlands 1-and-a-half.

More Than Just Hardcore XXX Gun Pr0n.
Hark at this, look: I'm a Borderlands addict. Maybe not as much as you are, you gaming freak, but it's still my favourite FPS. A bold statement, I know, but I'll take the original Borderlands over Half Life or Stalker any day of the week.
Pros:
- Excellent sequel
- Massively pretty
- Guns are fun
Cons:
- Odd jumping mechanics

Borderlands 2
The original Borderlands was a game that shone with potential but in reality turned out to be more brown and boring than its in-game environments. Guilty on so many levels of simply underachieving for rather easily fixed reasons, has Borderlands 2 done the work and made for an impressive come back?
Pros:
- Great gameplay
- interesting story
- colourful and varied game world
Cons:
- A tad buggy
- multiplayer could be more diverse
