I think you've got it the wrong way around. It's one of the only shooters that actually tries to do something DIFFERENT with the art direction, rather than just using the generic photorealism style that's in, like, every single other shooter. It uses a cel-shaded style that in some ways looks like a next-gen evolution of Dragon Quest 8's art style. But if a unique art style isn't your thing and you just want all your games to look exactly the same, well I guess that's a personal problem.

To be honest i prefer graphics to be the way they are in borderlands for most of the games I play because they make the game feel unrealistic and that's what games should feel like. P.S. this is my personal opinion

The graphics in Borderlands are great, it has almost spoiled games that try to look realistic for me, although I don't think graphics really matter all that much. The online videos don't really do the game justice.

Jesus, some of you guys are extremely angsty. I personally love Borderlands' graphics. Youtube videos really don't do this game it's justice. You seriously need to at least give this game a rent.

The art style seems to be a pretty good fit for Borderlands, actually. If you're not particularly fond of it, you shouldn't let that sway your decision because it's actually really fun to play. I say give it at least a rent.

the game is all about the gameplay, but the artstyle is nice, different, and fits the game like a glove.

You can say you dont like the graphics, but you know what? Maybe we dont like the graphics of Forza or MW2(not saying there bad) Just becuase YOU dont like them does not me EVERYONE hates them. If you think its that big of a problem dont play the game? As for me I have'nt stoped playing the game, and I cant wait for the DLC.

I typically side with Cougar for most arguments. In this case I agree, but for some reason graphics are very important when they shouldn't be.

The art style is cool. Cel shaded look but with polygons. Could be a little more crisp, but whatever.

Only real problem is slowdown. Still a great game.
