Borderlands is a new form of FPS, it combines the longevity and upgrade based formula of MMO games with that of a cooperative FPS. The game takes around 25-35 hours to complete, and is very fun to play with friends. The price on Amazon was unbeatable, and my only complaint is the shipping. From the time the game was officially released to when I received it was 14 days, this is not normal for Amazon free shipping. Other than that, 5 stars all around.

For anyone who loves Diablo2 & Call of Duty: ModernWarfare2, this is a must-buy ..combines 3D shooter action & RPG to create a great hybrid.. and the humor & graphic novel works together to make a unique play environment!

got bored after about 4 hours of multiplayer with friends, shoot enemys in the face 30 times with rpgs till they die cause the rpg you have has low hit points or some crap, lots of numbers flashing on the screen all the time.

Borderlands is a mixed bag, with a generally fun game being interspersed with a number of questionable or half-finished decisions that really hamper the overall product from being something really great.
The PC version of the game suffers from being a direct port of its console brethren, such as configuration options only being accessible by editing an .ini file rather than in game menus and the menus that are in game not properly supporting the mouse wheel. The keyboard control is awkward for menus because of this, as they're obviously designed for a controller; even adding multiple ways of scrolling text or entering/exiting menus would have been fine, but it's not there. The field of vision is limited, making it a little hard to see around you well; it can be edited through the .ini files, again, but it distorts the video and makes it a little nauseating to use. On occasion, the FOV can make it a pain to examine the stats of an item prior to picking it up.
The game itself is fun enough for its action components, but the MMO-style quests are poorly implemented and the story is almost non-existent. Quests tend to have you running back and forth across wide swaths of land in order to talk to one person, or pick up one item, and can often lead to pixel hunts while you search through areas of terrain for that one item that's glowing the proper color and is interactable... they're more or less pointless aside from getting some xp and maybe an item, and the quest text is completely forgettable if not outright annoying.
Borderlands is fine for just an arcade-type experience, running and shooting and looting, but I was hoping for more depth than that and it just isn't to be found here.
