However, once I let go of needing that serious angle and settled into Borderlands on its own it has grown on me and been a very enjoyable ride for me and my wife. I'd still like to see a game that has the serious immersion of a Bethesda Softworks type game, but with the multiplayer component that Borderlands provides, but this is still fun.
The only other flaw I'm having with the game is that there is no split screen with network. I have to choose between playing with my wife, or an old friend, and not both at the same time. If that feature was present then the game would get a 5 out of 5 for me, right now it's a 4 out of 5.
Gamertag: Harrimus Primal
The seemingly endless weapon choices, available $$$, and perks/upgrades keep you continually tuned in to what's best for your particular gaming style and current objective. And the totally wild assortment of bad guys and creatures, in addition to being extremely challenging as you progress and/or have friends fighting by your side, are just waaaay to fun & funny all at the same time (I've killed tons of those little midget zombies but still laugh every time I do!)
Needless to say, I've gotten very little sleep the past few days... ;-)
