Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford has said that the studio's upcoming action RPG Borderlands will be "less boring" than Fallout 3, in an interview in the latest issue of OXM.

He was talking about Borderlands' action focus, which he thinks will attract an audience who don't have the patience for Bethesda's opus.

"I understand why we do those games [like Fallout 3] but I don't know - do we want that? I think that game could have been much better if it didn't have a single dialogue tree. Honestly. And if it was more action-orientated, and if the shooting was better."

7-Eleven Cuts Game Prices - Stopping Game Sales?

PS3 News from N4G | Fallout 3

PS3 - Fallout 3 - 7-Eleven Cuts Game Prices - Stopping Game Sales?

Gamervision reports: 7-Eleven's gaming experience started with Halo 3, where they staged midnight openings all around the United States and forced gallons of Slurpees into unsuspecting fans' bellies (needed to get those collector's cups!). Since then, they've remained on the scene, breaking occasional street dates thanks to employees who don't give a damn about gaming. Thanks for that copy of Gears of War 2, guys. Well, the saga might be coming to an end... or ramping up for a big holiday push. We're not sure. All we know is that the 7-Eleven near us, and many others around the country, are cutting game prices to 50% off, as the awesome camera phone shot above confirms.
