all i know is im getting pretty pissed that i cant kill one of those lvl 11 blockheads or brickheads whatever their names are when my son and i are both a lvl 9 hunter and siren.

Had some comments about it; some are identical to others.

Liked:
- Really liked the feel of the weapons and the special skills of the characters.
- Really liked that you could take a Class and really change the way it plays by putting pts into a different path.
- Enjoyed the instances where you are playing online with a good group, having cool firefights with tough enemies.
- Liked the mad looting and improving of your gear.
- Liked the MMO option to go somewhere you should'nt and try to fight enemies much harder than yourself.

Didn't like:
- Seemed like towards the end of the game I had somehow gotten too powerful and all my missions were pushover and labeled as "Trivial". I may have messed this up for myself by wandering around and hunting things.
- Some of the bosses and supposed climaxes were boring.
- I second that the Eridian weapons were very 'tacked on' feeling. I was also annoyed by some of those Eridian enemies and their strange total-immunity to most of my weapons.
- Would have like to have seen more interesting interior locations, like the Safe House.

I am really enjoying the game and definately recommend at least trying it out, especially online with people you like to game with.

Borderlands is really fun! Been playing it over the past week and I love it. It has over 1 million different and unique guns!

SPOILER!!!

Yesterday I got the 1110100101001 Cannon (Its and alien weapon kinda looks eldar-ish to me) and it description just says 110100010101 which means O M G in binary code.

My friend and I are about to beat the game with a Soldier-Hunter combo. for my other characters, I've got an all brawler Brick and a gunslinger hunter.

I never thought I would, but I absolutely LOVE the gunslinger stuff in the Hunter tree, especially now that I found an awesome Jacobs revolver.

Also, about the Iridium weapons, apparently the binary code tells you what kind of effects they have.

Edit: Also, to kill the iridum enemies, you need to use shock. Their shields are super-resistant to all types of damage, shock is about the only way to beat down their shield...but once the shield is down they are pretty soft.

The ending was terrible.

yeah I wans't happy about the ending either..

I just finished the story and yeah, the ending was a little anticlimactic after the rest of the game... though I do want to see the new Claptrap in action

There's an add on pack due next week with a new area and loads of new quests... with zombies. Why does everything have zombies?

I was playing this game literally all last night. Reached about level 19 with a soldier, my friend a hunter.

Love the look and the atmosphere. Hate the forgivingness. Massively fun overall.

Played on a different profile at my friend's so I'll have to start again at home. Curses!
