New Borderlands Screenshots Released - Polidicks

This game is either going to be fucking AMAZING. Or fucking AVERAGE. I really doubt it will be bad.

"You got Fallout in my TF2!" "You got TF2 in my Fallout!" The black outline kindof irks me but otherwise it looks like an interesting title.

God I hope my computer can run this

[QUOTE=Zips;16834833]What I gathered from some posts here is the following simple "fact." Graphics make the game, despite how the actual gameplay may be.[/QUOTE] big difference between art direction and graphics dearie

[QUOTE=hunter_killah;16831861]Fucking awesome![img]http://www.facepunch.com/forumdisplay.php?do=markread[/img][/QUOTE] awesome but not deadly like pot.

[QUOTE=Detective P;16839940]Hi, cartoony weeaboo Fallout![/QUOTE] [img]http://smoothfewfilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/facepalm2ly3.jpg[/img] Really, people?

[QUOTE=BricknHead;16839822]big difference between art direction and graphics dearie[/QUOTE] Really? You don't say! My point is: When people mindlessly bash a game not for its gameplay (that they haven't experienced) but for it's graphics in a few screenshots, there is something fundamentally wrong with that.

[QUOTE=RichyZ;16839715]Fallout didn't invent the post apocalyptic art style Tf2 didn't invent the cartoony style. [/QUOTE] I wasn't implying that they did. It was a small joke touching upon the game's art style having similarities with those two titles.

Looks like a comic book. :D

Wait i just noticed, look at her thumb, then look at the rest of her fingers.

[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;16831186]Looks awesome imo[/QUOTE] I love the look.

Looks badass

rule 34 on borderlands. You heard here first, gentlemen.

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;16843497]Wait i just noticed, look at her thumb, then look at the rest of her fingers.[/QUOTE] Cel shading applies to the silhouetted outline of a character. The thumb is outside the silhouette and therefore is outlined, while the rest of her hand is inside, and is not outlined.

I think the idea of an anarchistic post-apoc storyscape inspired by animated film is a great idea, but there's something about the way they're doing it that I don't like. Maybe the cartoon-like look feels tacked on, maybe the characters are too exaggerated and cheesy, maybe the characters don't look original or even cohesive. I dunno, and I hope I'm wrong about this, but I just don't get the feeling that's there's any substance beneath the screens.

I think 2k is going for a new type of game. The games like CoD 4-5, Halo 3 and ODST, Fallout (especially that one) are getting old. Even though I love those games, it'll be nice to have something new to look. That's just an my opinion. I too was a little disappointed with Cel-Shaded change, but I grew to like it.
