  • Gun variety and fun coop play,
  • Singleplayer can be repetitive.
  • 2K Games and Gearbox software sent us a review copy of the Xbox 360 version of Borderlands. Does Borderlands successfully combine the grinding of an MMO with the fast paced action of a FPS. Come into the wasteland with us after the break!Full Review:...

  • Abstract:  Borderlands has been the bright spot in an otherwise extremely bad week for me; this wasteland-themed (think Mad Max and Fallout) FPS provided a very fun, accessible co-op game that cheered me up quite well. Borderlands puts you in control of one of fo...

  • Abstract:  There is a tendency amongst the heavy-hitting, magnum opus games to take themselves just a little bit too seriously - to mistake being atmospheric for being just a little bit dour, overly worthy, and earnest....
