Has anyone picked up this game? So far I'm hearing some pretty good things about the co-op mode. Sort of like a cel-shaded Fallout 3 with more emphasis on the FPS side and less on the RPG elements. I'd like a few more opinions before I break down and pick it up.

My friend nathan has it, he loves it!... I'm going to get it when I get the dinero...

Apparently it's like fallout... but as for better/worse I don't know... Nathan likes it though, I'll do a review if I get it in a couple weeks

I know but he has a SH*T LOAD of play throughs. He just gives me something to watch while I'm waiting on ES updates. But your right he is annoying, he told off one of my friends in a message just for trying to ask him his Gamer Score and PSN Trophies.

I know your were joking on the last post, but he explained it in the video "The King of HD Revealed" he hurt his back on the job, so his doctor makes him work no more that a 10 hr work day. He needed a hobby so he started uploading videos. He also went on to explain that half the time what he says on the videos is just for the subscribers( most people like his crude comments), and he didn't target my friend Logan as a person; he just said, " I'm tired of all these people asking me about my f*cking gamer score. I hate gamer score. I play for fun and to make videos not to ruin my life trying to get some points." but I feel bad for the guy. I've seen the way my dad is when he hurt his back.


Back on to Borderlands::
It had a good concept for the game.
It mixed two great genres into one game( RPG & FPS ).
But it was too repetitive.
And it tried to make itself a bit like Fallout( I noticed this a lot).
I give it 7 / 10

It'd be a lot cooler-looking in third-person, I think. Ah, well...

My friends keep pestering me to get this game. They are pretty picky bastards so it must be damn good. Maybe once I've finished some of the games I've picked up recently I will grab this too.
