Ok, first off if you want a game you and your friends can play for hours here you go. I've beat the entire game multiple times, and every DLC, but Mad Moxxi. So this is not a quick and easy game to beat in a couple of hours. The first thing you notice in this game is that the creators reallly REALLY put alot of time and effort into this game. Such as the loot system people were dreading was changed, and now if your teammate picks up money, you get it also, but it's not shared money. The same goes for EXP, but if a level 12 kills an easy enemy he gets around 5 EXP, and a level 2 would get 10 or more EXP. Also when you unlock vehicles you can use the turrent even if no one is in it, which is VERY handy. Every new location you unlock is a change of the environment. The first one is a bit cramped, then the 2nd one is REAL big, and to walk it would take forever, I'm not sure how many there are, but I'm sure there is atleast 1 or 2 more. The guns in this game are amazing, because there are thousands, and they are randomly dropped, so it's like a mini christmas. Then there are mods that can be used to effect the characters power/ gun upgrades/grenade upgrades, etc, and I know at some point and time you can unlock mods for vehicles. OH and SAVING is great! It saves before you leave, and randomly saves during game play.
Now for the negitive...
After you reach level 10 or so the game becomes almost immpossible on single player, though it is possible you'll most likley have broke the game by then.(different missions have different difficulty, and honestly though it's good to see a game that isn't trivial) People can be greedy with really cool guns and then your mad you don't get it, it's a far system, and makes perfect since, just people overreact. The higher level you are the more money it costs to die, yea you pay money to die. (but otherwise it would be to easy I mean die and respawn full health, too easy.) The vehicles seems to randomly get stuck here and there in dumb places, but they can easily be moved...it's just annoying.
Here's a tip, play with people you know. it makes it less frusterating when you want to get something done.
The negitives are VERY minor and if you don't wana buy it...atleast bum it off a friend, because this is my new favorite game.
