Borderlands anyone?

Just because of the graphics? You should never not play a Game just because you don't like the Graphics. I don't really like the graphics much either but that doesn't change the fact the game is a blast to play. You should at least rent it.

I agree..never judge a game by it's graphics. Tetris is old 2d graphics but I still play it all the time. No different for 3D games.

You're better off judging by the game play - I mean, that's why you get games right? To have fun? I've never bought a game for its graphics, graphics are just a plus.

And I don't think Borderlands has bad graphics, I think it's pretty good. Cartoonish sure..but isn't every game a cartoon? :)

true true and true i dont usually buy games for graphics i buy games for gameplay sure but i dont buy games due to graphics lol

btw starting new thread on box art please join in discussion

Almost lvl 30....haven't played it in a while due to Dragon Age: O.........

The best way I can some this game up in comparison to Fallout3 is this.

Fallout 3 is an RPG first, and a FPS second.

Borderlands is an FPS first, and an RPG second.

There are levels, experience points, and 3 unique skill trees per character (total of 12 for game). The advertisements of over 6,000,000,000 guns is about accurate. There are about 12 similar weapon types....shotguns, revolvers, sniper rifles, but as far as their stats and special abilities go there is quite a lot of dynamic weapons. The guns are NOT customizable as you might think, but there are enough randomly pooped out that you don't have to worry about it.

Sure the graphics are cell-shaded but for the mad-core gamers out there, shouldn't be a problem. Also ONLINE play is a LOT better than single player since experience, loot, and difficulty goes up with each friend that joins.

Definetly a pick-up if you like MMO fetch-quests but want to shoot em up instead of using magic-missile

Yeah, I'm the same .. for me gameplay comes first (it's % of fun) .. the graphics generally come second. However, although it was a bit weird at first playing borderlands, I'm kinda used to it now, and in fact like it a lot. I hear the Island of Dr Ned stretches the look a bit further, although I'm not sure how that's possible.

Yeah, still no word on when and if that DLC is coming to the PC.
It better, and soon.
