Borderlands - A Sci-Fi shooter with RPG elements and a lot of guns - Games

[QUOTE=jlj1;17974742]What are the reasons for having staggered release dates? If there is no changes.[/QUOTE] They claimed they had on oh shit moment on the PC version and had to do some last minute optimization. Some say it was to force massive sales of the console version by pissed off PC gamers, no one really knows. If there is no day one patch, then it was all a lie.

Poor Gearbox, sounds like they're just powerless. 2K really fucked them over here, especially on such a reported blockbuster title. I interpreted from the letter saying that they do have control over it, but would rather screw the small majority versus pirates.

[QUOTE=DaDillsta;17974729]See that pisses every PC gamer off. There are more than likely no "optimizations" and holding it back until Monday just means they are holding the pirates back until Monday then it will be released to torrents anyways, good game 2K.[/QUOTE] What Pisses me off is that now its being unlocked Monday at 12am. What the fucking hell, it's like they ewre trying to release the game at a time that would totally fuck up anyone who has a job or is in college, or school. I mean REALLY? Fucking bullshit.

I called Gamestop and they told me the 27th so they can blow it out their ass because I'm not waiting until the 27th to buy it I had a LAN party planned on Monday.

Comparison between PS3 and 360: [url]http://www.gametrailers.com/video/console-comparison-borderlands/58079[/url] Would be better if it compared them with PC too, I'd get a good laugh. [editline]05:41PM[/editline] And I personally think that it looked a bit better on PS3, but it was negligible. The only big difference was the loading time of the textures at the beginning.

Man, near the end of this game is where it gets amazingly epic. Anyway, last night, I found 5 legendary weapons and 4 alien weapons, and I must say, one of the legendary weapons I found, get this, is a rocket launcher that fires rockets. Sounds boring eh? Well then, the rockets that it fires SPAWNS MORE ROCKETS AS IT FLIES, therefore, creating this giant barrage of rape.

Well PS3/Xbox360 users can play early if they got the game, but PC users are not allowed to. Pure out and out racism. [/quote][/url] Jesus fucking Christ...

I'm not even looking forward to this game anymore as much as I was last week

[b]The only big difference was the loading time of the textures at the beginning.[b][/QUOTE] Seriously. Other than the texture pop-in during the loading on the 360, they look identical. I still don't know about this game. It looks fun but... Eh. I'll keep waiting for a discount.

i hate the graphics style but i like the idea of the game

Every time my dad tries to buy this, it says the card is invalid or is on hold or whatever. It's not. Help?

[QUOTE=Kondor;17975364]I'm not even looking forward to this game anymore as much as I was last week[/QUOTE] I'm managing to keep my level of enthusiasm for it up, but having it released on monday is bringing it down. Why? Because like most people weekdays are the most busy times of the week for me. So I most likely won't be able to play it at all.

[QUOTE=Kondor;17975364]I'm not even looking forward to this game anymore as much as I was last week[/QUOTE] KONDOR, it's really fucking good, I just finished the training levels and killed the first "tough guy" LOOT EVERYWHERE.

The 360 version looks kinda muddy and tiring to look at imo

[QUOTE=RichyZ;17975401]I like the graphics, it's good on the eyes.[/QUOTE] I agree, it's pretty calming to the eyes.

[QUOTE=Mislumz;17975739]I agree, it's pretty calming to the eyes.[/QUOTE] Haha, not when you've been playing it for 7 hours straight.

Well I believed I wouldn't find two exact copies of the same weapon in a short period of time, but it happened. I opened a weapon chest and I saw two rifles. Same stats, same name, manufacturer, price point, and color. I was like 'whaaaaaaat?'

[QUOTE=Sh33p;17975870]Haha, not when you've been playing it for 7 hours straight.[/QUOTE] 7 hours is a bit much to be playing straight (one game, at least)

[QUOTE=BricknHead;17976295]7 hours is a bit much to be playing straight (one game, at least)[/QUOTE] Really? I could play it longer.

[QUOTE=DaDillsta;17974729]See that pisses every PC gamer off.

The game will be available for download tomorrow to pirates and unhappy customers.

[QUOTE=BricknHead;17976295]7 hours is a bit much to be playing straight (one game, at least)[/QUOTE] Yeah, just a little. I can't believe people are whining about not being able to play the game before it's released.

NUKES! Also I'll probably get this sometime. Seems like alot of fun.

Sucks that it's not out on Steam yet

Yes because it is hilarious that a company lied to it's fanbase and then bitched about piracy when it was pirated on 360 weeks before release and is still torrented like crazy.
