utterly dull fps, die, shoot , die, shoot .explore, die.
User Rating: 5 | Borderlands X360
role playing first person shoot em up with co-operative mode in which the bad guys can withstand rocket launchers, grenades, harpoons ,shotguns.. well just about anything you can throw at them but you will die with just one shot from their armory. then you can pick up that same gun and by magic it is almost powerless all of a sudden. a poorly weighted game with minimal fun to be had whilst exploring a mainly dull world, full of brown vistas and identical characters, ferrying items around for experience points- did the last 20 years of progress even happen? with gameplay that feels similar to Dizzy from the commodore 64 era (just with more guns and brown) you can ride around in vehicles squashing the bad guys on contact ( yet dynamite bounces off them) but really there is no point, there is very little joy to be had, no unforgettable vistas to behold . no cavalier gun battles to join. all you have to do is stand there in front of the next bad guy and shoot untill you die , then re-spawn and travel all the way back to rejoin the battle and carry-on shooting until you die again. repeat to fade. to sum up then...brown, shoot , die. yawn. a game that feels old, tired and unworthy of purchase.
