Is the game worth it at this price or should I wait till it drops further ?

Pretty sure in Consoles forum (relating to the MW2 thread) the whole competitor naming rules has been reclarified...

May want to report my post to see if this extends to the PC section too (presume it does)...

Its good fun. Unfortunately the singleplayer does seem to be a bit lacking sometimes with the first playthrough being almost entirely a walk in the park with a very, very warped difficulty curve. The second playthrough you actually get to take on the big boys and you will probably have to try tactics other than what my Soldier spent half the game doing (Equip rapid fire LMG, equip Ammo Regenaration Class Mod, Spray and Pray).

Its a good game, worth £17 i have no doubt.

Lots of people on that site saying that its an awful game with poor DRM.

Might pick it up on the cheap and give it away when im finished with it if its that poor.

I got it through Steam, so cannot comment on the the DRM, but the game itself is good fun, provided you enjoy THAT TIME OF GAME.

The idiot comparing it to FO3 doesn't realise that they are very different games, and shouldn't be judged against eachother.

For the record, I've actually enjoyed Borderlands more than I did the 70ish hours of play FO3 got out of me.

I did play a bit of borderlands at the eurogamer expo but was the 360 version and wasnt that impressed but sayin that I have loved other gearbox games so could be worth a look.

Can get it with dragon age origins for £41 for the two so tempted by that lol

big river people huh? what a USELESS thread for someone who doesn't know what that means (like me)... and those who know, probably know that already/got the same email etc. GG.

Stupid people don't deserve good deals

Great price for this game. If you can find someone else to play with even better.

Even more epic for the amount of fail.

Zaire no longer exists, there is no border between Zimbabwe and the DRC (Zaire's not so new name). And neither country touches the Nile!

Look Ma, I corrected a post which was not in anyway meant as a factual statement!

Do I winz the interwebs?

Yes first prize! Thanks for putting me in my place - my gcse geography teacher would be so ashamed!
