A bit like Fallout 3..

From the look of the trailer of Borderlands it looks like to me a bit like Fallout 3...should i buy this game???

Actually, its more like Diablo than anything else if you ask me.

The story lines are kinda similar, but the two games are really nothing alike. I still think Fallout 3 is the better game, but, yes, you should absolutely buy this game. It is well worth your money.

Perhaps you may want to...mabye?

if this game is like Diablo or Fallout then awesome lol

I love the use of CoD controls in it. I heard Fallout 3 was more of an RPG than a shooter. Borderlands has a healthy amount of shooter in it, but enough role playing to keep it interesting. I didn't play Diablo much, but I think that probably is a better comparison-only this shooting is much more satisfying than clicking.

Love someWRPGs (Mass Effect, KOTOR) but this game is definitely a cool mix of shooter and RPG.

This is basically a FPS Diablo II. The story isn't really there, but the basic premise of the game is to join a room and level with other people. The guns, action, and social play are really what makes this game fun.

It's not perfect by any means, but it is unique and fun. Rent it to see if its something you enjoy, and then definitely buy, because you can put a lot of hours into this. If you don't have XBL Gold, you might like it if you enjoy grinding out levels.

It's really not any more similar to Fallout 3 than Mass Effect is to Halo. They have the same kind of general setting, and that's it.

I actually find this game better than Fallout 3.The story isnt as good but the gunplay and the overall feel of the game is great.xxxCr00k3dxxx

Grif-yes

The only thing remotely like Diablo in Borderlands is the allocation of skills. Which you do in Fallout 3 as well. Borderlands is post-apocolyptic and has that Road Warrior/Mad Max feel, as does Fallout 3. Its an FPS/RPG, as is Fallout. Theres ever groups of enemies with a leader that had green glowing on him in Borderlands, not unlike the Glowing Ones in Fallout 3. Saying that Borderlands is more like Diablo than Fallout 3is a major oversight.

This basically sums it up. It has Call of Duty 4 controls, World of Warcraft like quest and leveling, Diablo II loot, and Halo's or Left 4 Dead's action. Its the best mixture of all my favorite games I've ever seen. Every gamer should pick up this game.
