I just recently picked up the Game of the year edition for 10 dollars.

I can't beleive i let this game slip under my radar for so many years. The thing that kept me from buying it years ago was the art style. It seemed like a let down.

But it is actually a unique and fun experience. Going to be busy with this game for a while.

Anyone else consider this a hidden gem?

Defiently going to get part 2 when it comes out.

I wouldn't call Borderlands a hidden gem more than enough people bought it that they're making a sequel. But me personally I didn't like Borderlands it felt boring and tedious. There was nothing there to keep me interested in the game, no story, no interesting characters, most enemies were just copy and pasted. To me it was all flash and no substance. I did try to like it I rented it twice and even played it on the 360 with my brother but I just didn't like it.

I also didn't get to this game for a long time. After playing the 1 hour trial I decided to buy it as it was on sale during the Holidays, and I was surprised with how much I enjoyed the game.

Not exactly a hidden gem, but when I started playing with a few friends I realized just how much fun it can be. If what the devs say will be improved in Borderlands 2 comes true then it'll definitely be a really good game and probably the best console co-op game this gen.

Borderlands is really fun and when the second game comes out you always feel the need to buy the first one to have the full collection (it's also happenning with me with Darksiders).

my favourite game this gen, fun gameplay, awesome loot (sad thing the loot is free for all in MP, always playing long range so never got any loot), nice NPCs (Claptrap, TK Baha), layout of maps let you use diferent strategies and you don't get swarmed like in other FPS

I've ended up owning the game on both HD consoles and the PC just to play with friends, so yeah I've enjoyed it a lot.

Same for me!! I actually hated FPS and FPS/RPG such as Deus Ex or Fallout!! I think it was the first game with such beautiful cel-shading graphics!!
