Arrived on time, well packaged. Loading times are so much faster in the PS4 remake, beyond that it's exactly what i wanted. Full disclosure, Borderlands is one of my favorite games, so i can't provide a totally unbiased review, lol.

Borderlands is a stylized cell-shaded RPG FPS or RPFPS. This means while FPS is part of the play element pointing and shooting are not the only factors in determining a hit, so some hardcore CoD:MW or Battlefield players may be some what frustrated at the RP combination to what they believe to be a shooty game. So be aware of this when considering the type of game play you like.

You play one of four classes Beserker (tank/bruiser), Solider (dps/tank), Siren (dps/controller), or Hunter (sniper/dps). Now you can't customized the character you play beyond some color schemes however while you can't change the superficial you can definitely make your character all your own by choosing particular skills from the skill trees as you level and by what type, brand, and model weapons you choose to use.

The Single player game doesn't have a great and engaging story in a nutshell "your here, there is a macguffin out there, find it" however the quests, characters, and funny tidbits along the way definitely paint a colorful world full of flavor and spirit. The real gem of the game is the four player Co-op. In the Xbox version you can do this online with 4 buddies, or find 4 random people. This increases the difficulty of the creatures in the world and yields better items from vendors and loot drops.

If you have some pals willing to invest in a solid title pick this up. If you don't mind random people pick it up yourself. If you just like shooting things and having a laugh, pick it up.

I never played the original one, but recently worked my way through to the last level on this one. Overall I think it's a pretty sweet game. I love how you can customize the character to your liking in the game to fit the mission. However, the one thing I think that the developer missed on was the playability. Generally speaking, once you get to know the controls - you are good... But if you are used to something like Call of Duty 4 or World at War, I think you'll probably be a little disappointed. But again, once you get used to the movements - you're good. I would categorize the playability of this game just below Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway.

I'm not sure why some people are knocking this game because it "didn't have characters" and was full of "mechanical puzzles". Both are very common for the adventure game genre and Outcry is one of the most creative and interesting adventures I've played in a long time. Certain images from it will stay with me forever and although it doesn't provide that much guidance in terms of objectives, I still found it intuitive for the most part. If you love games chock-full of style, mood and atmosphere, Outcry is a game you'll enjoy.

Excellent. Just Excellent. Waiting to jump on the Borderlands bandwagon because I wasn't sure exactly how the shooting mechanics were. They're awesome. This game is awesome. I played this game for about 2.5 years with my cousin every time we met, working through the DLC and what not. Play it. Then move on to Borderlands 2.

I don't think an in-depth review is necessary as the game itself is not very in-depth.  This is basically a run and gun game where blasting animals is nearly nonstop and gratuitous.  They have thrown in quite a bit of items to find and "collect" which I figure is there to slow the pace down a bit.  There's also a couple of boss fights which is always a plus in my books.

Then there are the shooting galeries which are actually really well done.  I felt kind of out of place using the controller so I was glad to get my hands on a cheap Move controller and hope this makes a difference in my scores.

A warning though.  When I fired up this game, I could NOT get the game to recognize any button inputs.  Right from 'Press Start' the game wouldn't react to my controller.  My first reaction was that the game was a Move game only which is NOT the case.  What it turned out to be was that I was using the original Sixaxis controller (without rumble) that had come with my 40gb PS3 back in the day.  As soon as I switched to my newer controller (with rumble) everything worked fine.  So I put this on my review in case anyone else has this problem or only has one of those original controllers as playing this game could potentially mean buying a second controller.

I can't get enough of the Borderland games.  Adding Claptrap as a playable character is pure genius.

i have been playing the fallout games fo a while now i fell in love with the gameplay and how long the games can take to finish. Fallout New Vegas is no exception and my favorite in the franchise. I bought this version for the DLC benifits and am yet to get to them but even without them this game is well woth it. I do advise this game is not for everyone i babysitt a 12year old kid and he finds it incredibly boring due to the lack of benifets for mindless killing.

Video Games are like movies, in the sense that some stand out among all others, we refer to these types as Classics. Movies have there classics and so do Video Games.
Borderlands is a game that can be enjoyed by all gamers, no matter what style or genres of video games you normally like to play.
  Borderlands has combined everything you like about video games, with a touch of
 "old style" games, thrown in with it's semi-animated world. The unique artistic way they brought this "3D" world to life, is something that has to be appreciated.
  If your a Video Game enthusiast, then this is a game that you would love to add to your game library, it's a must have!

For a game that's still selling at near-retail pretty much everywhere else, this is a fantastic deal! Borderlands and its sequel have been some of the most enjoyable games I've played in the last 6 years: there's so much to do even before adding in the various DLCs (which each contain an additional 5-20 hours of gameplay and many unique items etc). I don't think you'll be able to find a deal that beats this, ever.

The games come as 3 codes (BL1 GOTY; BL2; BL2 Season Pass), all of which are instantly redeemable on Steam, and BL1 can be downloaded directly from Amazon if you prefer. If you already own a game, codes themselves can be gifted to others if you don't redeem them yourself, as each of the three games has a separate activation code.

I like most of Ubisoft games, of course not ALL of the Ubisoft games. I think they *get* it, when making games. I only gave 4 stars coz I haven't played the entire game yet; but, what I saw so far, I liked.

I have played the other Assassin games so I know what I am getting into, when I bought the game. I am not disappointed, yet.

Borderlands 2 is one of the best games of the decade and the DLC is overall very good in quality. Sir Hamerlock was a bit weak but overall it's as good if not better than the original game.

I have only really played around with this for a day, but I LOVE the PS Vita, a combination of touch controls, analog control sticks, and buttons/triggers really works well together.  Borderlands 2 plays EXACTLY as I would expect!  Highly recommend this!

I overall like the game, however, I am having an issue where after a game is saved, when you go back to it later, all of the missions are gone or the game play is messed up in one way or another so that you cannot play a mission. I plan to do some research and see what I can find out.
I do like the idea that each character has its own game and the other characters to add on are a reasonable price too.

I love all Sonic the Hedgehog games. Even the ones I know are bad... so my review is very biased.

I really want to like this game, but  there's just something about it that feels like it's missing. Not only did it give me no small amount of trouble with my PC in simply trying to get it installed properly, but everything from the subpar gameplay, to the glitches, and even the advertisements in-game make it feel like Ubisoft really got lazy when making the PC version of this game.
Aside from my own experience, I've also heard no small amount of complaints from other gamers and their endless troubles and disappointments with the story and its shortcomings.
All in all, it has potential, and there are several winning points, (some of the missions are actually fun), and there is never any shortage of things to do. So, if you can see past its low points, you may be able to immerse yourself long enough to enjoy it.
