The two worlds of RPG and FPS collide in a fantastic and very funky experience that is Borderlands!
In borderlands everytime I see a large number (or a bunch of small ones) pop up above an enemy's head I become giddy with excitement! Damage is of a plenty as you lay waste to numerous foes whose only desire is to either die at your feet or to carve you a new one.
You play as one of four characters, The Berserker(Brick), The Hunter(Mordecai), The Soldier(Roland), or the Siren(Lilith) all of which are well balanced and interesting characters each with their individual base special power and a set of skill trees which allows you to customize your figure to greatness!
As you travel through the vast wasteland that is Pandora, you will notice that there is a plethora of characters whom are ready to greet you in their own special ways, each one as luni as the last. Aside from the diversity in the life you will also come by over three thousand different weapons which you shall use to decimate anything that gets in your way.
To be fully honest I have only two noticable problems in this game, both of which are really a matter of personal opinion. First is that there is very little customization when it comes to the character you play as in terms of looks, it lacks a personalization that I normally desire in games of this type. Second is (Spoiler) the ending of the game, but I'll let you experience that for yourself.
All in all this game appeals to many but doesn't leave out the minority, it is an accomplishment that deserves no quarter but needs none. So please, by all means, come to Pandora and join the fight!
