You Want to Hear a Story? About Treasure Hunters? "Marcus"

User Rating: 10 | Borderlands PC
Borderlands, this game has definitely deserved the title as 2009 Game of the Year. Combining Both RPG Elements and FPS shooter Elements, to make the first Role Playing Shooter.

Borderlands Starts of by a man named Marcus telling us a story of a Vault that would open every 200 years on Pandora. Who ever opens the vault will obtain alien technology, infinite wealth, power, fame, women.

We start off on a deserted runway, then next thing you know it, a Skag gets run over, besides all that you are greeted with 4 of the Vault Hunters.

Mocerdoni the Hunter
This is the best class with Sniper Rifles and Revolvers. His pet, Bloodwing is his special ability which can deal massive damage. when his stats have been upgraded, he can deal real powerful damage, but not good health nor shield

Lilith the Siren
This is the best Class with any Elemental Weapon. She is 1 of the 6 sirens in the Universe, her power is to go into Phasewalk, which can be great to get out of trouble. When her Stats have been Fully Upgraded, Her Shield is has a massive capacity and good fire rate on all weapons.

Roland The Solider
My favorite class which is the Best with Combat Rifles and Shotguns. Beyond becoming a SGT. of the Crimson Lance, his ability is to spawn a Scorpio Turrent, now this can be good for ammo Regen, Damage and getting out of trouble. When his stats have been upgraded, Roland is the best for Quickly Regenerating Health, Shield and Armour, and Deals Quick Damage.

Brick as Himself The Berserker
Brick is one big guy, killing anything in his way. Efficent with any explosive weapons, he has an ability which will turn him berserk which will do massive Melee Damage. Brick is the Best for Melee Damage and Massive Health.

When choosing 1 of the 4 vault hunters, you be dropped at fyrestone and a Legendary Woman Named, the Guardian Angel will appear to help you, but only you can see her. And a Robot called Claptrap. I'm not going to tell what happens next cause that is a surprise.

Over the Years Gearbox has made 4 expansions, these include:
Dr. Ned Zombies
Which involves you trying to solve a mystery of the Zombies
Mad Moxxi's Underdome
Survival of the Fittest
General Knoxx Armoury
Level Cap increase, More Loot and more story.
Claptrap Robultion
Hyperion's Ninja Assassins

The Game
Graphics
Yeah they may not be great, but who honestly cares about Graphics?
Multi-player
Absolutely Addictive with the 4 Player CO-OP.
Weaponary
Can you count? over "87 Bazzilion" Guns "Claptrap"

The Verdict
+ Addictive
+ Elements of FPS and RPG

+ GUNS, GUNS & GUNS!
- Pricey Expansions
- Boring after Playthrough 2
9.5/10
