Borderlands was so much fun. Can’t wait for the sequel.

Hopefully there’s a little more story than the half-assed one the first had. Still excited to see a sequel for a game that sucked up a good chuck of my life

One of their number one bullet points for Boarderlands 2 is focus on a strong narrative.

What they should do this time tho is let us buy blank slate guns and then find a bazillion fucking parts to upgrade them with instead of guns being random drops. Then I can have guns that handle the way i like and choose to keep them or discard them for something new instead of being forced to drop a gun I like cuz it’s not cutting the mustard anymore.

I saw a ninja. I’m playing that guy.

this trailer is awesome

Hope it’s not locked to 30fps. That made the first game suck and you couldn’t turn it off.

I’ll probably start out using the Siren again.

Anyone else thought the fat chick was lilith for a sec?
