A fun game by yourself, but an excellent game with your friends
There seems to be this trend going around of mixing the shooter with the RPG genre as of late. Before this game came Fallout 3 and the Mass Effect series by Bioware. Luckily, it proves to be a great combination and Bor... Read Full Review

I NEVER liked RPGs BUT this is the first RPG, I am absolutely in love with!
- First of all.. I NEVER in my whole entire life liked any RPG game. I sort of gave up on RPGs, I was always bored with them. But a friend of mine was telling me how great the game is. So.. one day I came over to his pl... Read Full Review

Who need plot when you have guns? Lots and lots of guns....
I really want to like this game, but i can't fully buy into it. First, The Cons: Lack of plot: I played through the game, there is little to no connection to the npcs around you and little motivation to actually com... Read Full Review

Repetitive. No other way to put it really. Nice style and plenty of potential... but repetitive. Best played with others
Let me start off the good: * Great art style, something a little different and cooky which is excellent * Shear number of guns is amazing, random gun generator is neat * Some enemies are also cool to look at and hav... Read Full Review

Very fun to play!! Excellent upgrading system, play it just to listen to the robot, it's hilarious!

Top-notch mission-based enjoyment in an alien frontier based setting that is just a hoot!
This is nothing less than sheer enjoyment. The setting is a perfect combination of wild west frontier and off-world alien planet. It sets the scene for a myriad of goal based missions that though essentially based on the... Read Full Review

With lame RPG-lite gameplay and heavily flawed game design issues, Borderlands is a disappointment.
***EDIT: I would like to confirm that Gearbox HAS fixed the performance issues as of 2012. Nevertheless, I stand by my verdict: Borderlands 1 is a disappointing, mediocre RPG that's only fun when you play Co-op. HOWEVER,... Read Full Review

Quite possibly the worst game ever made.
I really can't think of anything good to say about this game. It's fundamentally flawed and isn't the least bit enjoyable. Games are meant to entertain and amuse, and Borderlands is neither entertaining nor amusin... Read Full Review

A fun game that fuses two genres and throws in Diablo-style looting, cel-shaded graphics, and a quirky sense of humor...
Introduction Borderlands is a first-person shooter/role-playing game hybrid that features cel-shaded graphics, a Diablo-inspired loot system, 4 player co-op, and a refreshing sense of humor. You play as one of four merc... Read Full Review
