We’ve discovered a new psychological condition: Gun Envy. It begins with a peek at another player’s weapon stats. Sleepless nights follow. You begin by coveting: opening crates, killing everyone, frantically searching for a bigger, better penis. We mean gun. You end up peeking jealously out of the corner of your eye at your partner’s gleaming Caustic Gamble revolver. You’ll feel inadequate. Less of a man. ...

With a change of art direction, this looks more original than its 'Fallout 3 Western' tag

The voice of Gearbox’s founder Randy Pitchford cuts through the air: “These players were coming up to the crest of a hill and this wall of flame shot up. Some dude emerged and had an Alien-style flamethrower under his arm, and I was like: ‘What the f**k’s that?’” ...   » Read Full Borderlands preview
Four things you need to know about Borderlands
There's a little bit of Wall-E and a whole lot of loot hiding in this hybrid RPG- shooter
Jul 30, 2009
Borderlands’ concept is easy to get excited about: take first-person shooting, add role-playing elements, customizable vehicles and potentially millions of weapons, and our brains could very well hemorrhage. We recently had a chance to stop the bleeding by playing a bit of the game’s single-player and co-op modes, an experience that revealed four important facts - one for each of the game’s playable classes - about the wildly ambitous Borderlands. ...   » Read Full Borderlands preview
Borderlands
Fightin’ on the fringes
Sep 26, 2008
What makes Han Solo cool? Why does Mad Max excite us? What is it about Firefly that makes us want to sign up for the interplanetary mercenary lifestyle? It’s hard to say for sure, but the pull of a wild frontier, danger, excellent toys, and rich rewards make for irresistible TV, movies, and games. ...   » Read Full Borderlands preview
Borderlands
More guns than you can shake a barren planet at
Jan 24, 2008
The most exciting thing about Borderlands is that its very similar to the ‘80s space western cartoon BraveStarr. In fact, apart from the notable absence of Confederate little people in smocks and sentient, anthropomorphic robot horses, Borderlands is just like it - but with more extreme violence. The second most exciting thing about it is that its a little bit like the ill-fated Firefly TV series as well. With that in mind, let us ...   » Read Full Borderlands preview

Guns for hire, for sale, and for rent
Dec 19, 2007
Dec 19, 2007 Guns: lots and lots of guns. Millions of them, in fact. Thats the banner feature of Borderlands thats going to embarrass all those other first-person shooters. Borderlands is a mix of open desert buggy-driving and fast-paced shooting thats coming in 2008. You and three friends bomb around a ruined landscape in souped-up dune buggies, chased by angry mercenaries while protecting threatened colonies from cracked-rhino-hide aliens - the Kraytt. You do so with this: an epic selection ...   » Read Full Borderlands preview
