Gun porn stars

If you are a modern gamer, meaning you have a FPS pedigree, and you’re waxing nostalgic on the loot whoring of Diablo II, then break out the Jergins fire up your gaming device of choice (360, PS3, PC). Borderlands, which I call my severance package, has been keeping me warm through out my negative cash flow months.

The story has as much depth as a children’s pop up book, but that’s not why you are here. You came for the boomsticks, hand cannons, and bullet hoses on the scale of that scene when Keanu says, “We need guns. Lots of guns.” The guns are great. No where near the bazillion as advertised, but enough to where it’ll take you a while to exhaust and find the game’s full inventory of death dealers.

People have compared it to Fall Out 3, but those comparisons stop at the post-apocalyptic type setting. This is a pure shooter. While going at it solo can be entertaining, it goes to a next level when you play with friends. I say friends because public matches are infested with cheaters who have modded or duped guns, plus the match making system is old school. As in PS2 era.

The graphics are stylish with a unique pseudo-cell shading that really makes it seems like you’re playing an animated comic book. The world of Pandora is populated by humorous characters and during intense fire fights, very Battlestar Galactica battle hymns kick in.

DLC

The Zombie Island of Doctor Ned- Want a little Left 4 Dead in your Borderlands? This 2-6 hour romp through a very spooky zombie playground is fun especially if you enjoy literally blowing undead brains out. It follows the wacky escapades of the eccentric Dr. Zed Ned.

Mad Moxxi’s Underdome- The community cried for more challenge and it comes in the form of massive arena battles. The foes are tough and the rules change each round. Definitely needs to be played with friends. Some tourney can last up to 6 hours alone. There is also a bank which enlarges your storage by 42 slots.
