The official Gearbox Forums are keeping tab on some of the issues plaguing Borderlands players in terms of bugs and glitches.  The full list currently sits at two solved issues, eight open issues, and ten under investigation.  

It's a good idea to head over there if you are experiencing any problems to see if it's a known issue, and whether or not there's a work around.   The most serious glitch affects 360 and PS3 gamers, and it appears to be save file corruption.  Nobody likes losing a character they put 20+ hours into.

The battle is truly on for your fall gaming dollar as Amazon has unleashed a killer deal for gamers.  While normally they offer a $5 or $10 credit for preordering titles through their site, this deal trumps them all.

Borderlands (PC) - Borderlands hits the PC with four player online co-op TODAY. Millions of weapons, four character classes, and a boatload of quest await you in this beautiful RPS. 

DJ Hero (360, PS3, Wii, PS2) - Our first foray outside of the world of comfortable plastic guitars, DJ Hero invites players to work their DJ-ing skills on a plastic turntable through almost 100 remixed songs.  10 of the songs are co-op-able with the aforementioned plastic guitar, and others works with two turntables.

Sent to die you say?  Nay - we say sent to be free and prosper!  According to Gearbox the Borderlands is selling well, extremely well, so much in fact that a lot of people are finding the game sold out.

"Yes, Borderlands copies of the Xbox 360 SKU have run out in a few regions, especially the east coast," Gearbox VP of Marketing Steve Gibson told IGN. "We are aware of this and are working with production and distribution at ramping up to catch up with demand." 

"There will be more copies of Borderlands available on shelves as early as Thursday or Friday at many retailers," he added. "The PlayStation 3 SKU issues on the west coast are mostly regional and can be addressed by reallocation. We are confident that will happen quickly." 

Has anybody had any trouble finding the game?  If so you might want to check the site early next week...we may just have a copy to give away!  

The Co-Op Revolution grows strong.
