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

Borderlands 2 review: Huge scale and loot addiction papers over the cracks
Light on story and heavy on guns. Borderlands 2 is saved from XP strip-mining by a sharp sense of humour and a slick, destructive multiplayer.
Pros:
- Lots and lots and lots of guns
- Utterly compelling
- can't-stop-yourself loot collecting
- Great world
- backed by some razor-sharp wit
- Co-op is laser-focused and smart
Cons:
- Story never feels like it's driving the game
- Easy to get ground down by the grind

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)...
