Just Formatted My PC

i will be installing DA:O But i cant decide what which one to install with it. borderlands or MW2? i have mw2 for PS3. i dont want to install all 3

EDIT I own both games

MW2, borderland isn't too good to be honest.

Neither both fail games :/Shadowhawk000

Having Both Dragon Age and Borderlands may consume abit too much time and be difficult to juggle, I say play Dragon Age and keep MW2 on the side if you need a break from an RPG (during Orzammar, you'll probably need one)

Go for MW2, I have nice time playing it. Besides DAO and Borderlands both have RPG elements, so you might change the game style for a while

Both. Go for Borderlands and get MW2 later. :)NoctisCaelum52

Borderlands, because you won't like MW2 on the PC if you've played it for the PS3.

No matter what anybody in this thread tells you, it's a really subpar game. Can read my review if you want, nothing has changed.

[QUOTE="_Sharpshooter_"] That is a really good advice. Thank you. But the thing is, since I already own both games, (Borderlands on PC and MW2 on the PS3) when that happens, I can go to the MW2 on the PS3 when I need a break from the RPG._Sharpshooter_

[QUOTE="kieranb2000"][QUOTE="matastig"]i dont know man i am an RPG player since the Prime of RPG's name any RPG game you've heard of i've played it all, but this is more like shooter than RPG the atmosphere, gameplay, etc.. and even if they put some of RPG's quantities put the name of shooting will get the upper hand,,and i think you should ask more RPG gamers "the real deal of curse not the new gamers" about Borderlands if they agreed on the RPG thing or not.and on last thing even if gamespot sometimes mix things up but they name it Sci-Fi First-Person you can check it here...

You're right, Gamespot does mix things up. It depends on what your idea of an RPG is... Of course what an RPG is doesn't change depending on your opinion. A game doesn't need to have swords or medieval based stories to be an RPG. (Even the developers call Borderlands a Role-Playing Shooter.) Gamespot does call Borderlands a Sci-Fi Shooter, but that doesn't mean it is one. Several different gaming sites such as Team Xbox see borderlands as an RPG.

You earn XP doing quests and with your killings. You literally select your **** You have an inventory. As much as these are the specs of an RPG, it's also not. There are many games that contain these but they don't turn out to be Rpg's. Nowadays, it's hard to say what is an Rpg and what is not...

1. I'm 18, what does that matter? It is a tad off putting to highlight words 'important' to the conversation at hand, and no mature people don't talk by highlighting words. I was stating my opinion, if you aren't mature enough to understand that some people have different opinions from you then you also have no place to be talking down about other people's maturity.

2. If you look at the Zelda series one thing it is known for is highlighting names and other important things in different colours during exposition. No, it isn't offensive I simply stated it was a little annoying.

3. I wasn't hostile in the slightest, you are the one who has come off as being rather hostile and offended, I think maybe you misread my post or something?

4. I did, I was stating that Borderlands in an RPG in the vein of Diablo, and if you try to say that Borderlands isn't an RPG, you are arguing against all of that sub-genre of games, like Diablo, Sacred 2, etc etc.

5. I haven't kept count, but a lot, mostly older ones though, most RPGs of the past few years have failed to live up to the standards set by the oldies like Baldur's Gate and Fallout.

"please check again what i said and think again before you speak,"

I did check what you said before I posted, I think you need to check what I said though.

"and dont throw people with random words"Every word I used was entirely fitting for the conversation at hand, so I'm not entirely sure what you meant by this."please show some respect ....this is a place of fun right.."This is a place of fun, andtruly I'm sorry if I offended you somehow, but I don't see how questioning my maturity or claiming that I'm being hostile for making a point is showing me any respect?

1.??????,,,2.??????,..3.????? etc

and yours was not friendly to me That's how i felt it when you at the first moment start to criticize my way of writing without even give a chance to ask way but you more interested by showing that you r teased by my highlighting thing even in your next replay you insist on repeating my words to overturn the situation maybe cause you more interested to win than making your self clear, and believe me it is much annoying when we run from work and people to gamespot to have some fun and see that all what you care about is criticizing, maybe i misunderstood you maybe you misunderstood but i going to stop this before it gets annoying to people here so am sorry sharpsgooter for the boring argument and am sorry to you my friend if you felt upset or something .

have a nice day..
