Borderlands!

I know this game has been out since about October 09 but no ones really said too much on it!

But i have to say this is the Co-op game for pure fun, Me and Swann started playing this and then Mike also bought it, we've been playing a bit together over the past week or so and are raping this game! Jumping in the cars and leaving someone to walk is always good fun lol! Or stealing the great stuff out of their crates lol!

Its just a game of killing everything, making money, upgrades and free roaming over differents parts of what seems to be an endless map!

If any of you thought Fallout 3 was amazing, buy this (about £25 now) its less intense but much more fun, but i fully advise playing with people, i only play on my own to rank updoing little side missions!
You can choose 1 of 4 characters,

Beserker - Big dude, built to take anything, expert in explosives and his special ability = uses his fists to fight, takes no damage and regains health.

Soldier - Expert with Shotguns and Combat Rifles, Carries more health and ammo than the others, Special Ability = Auto Turret with a shield.

Hunter - Expert Sniper and knife wielder, Special Ability = Sends his hawk into battle for him

Lilith - Sexy Red Head, expert with Elemental weapons (corrosive, electric and fire), Special Ability = Turns invisible and causes and explosion from behind the enemy!

Some of the DLC's look amazing too, looked at one in which you kill a General and afterwards you can raid his armoury with a a 3min time limit, but theres a glitch to stop it, and i mean he has the most powerful and expensive mods and weapons (this part is mainly aimed at those that play this game)

Swann, Mike catch you on there later! O and im buying the General Knoxx DLC with the money left over after buying the Mw2 Map Pack!!!

Nice review, good shout comparing it to fallout three it has a similar feel but doest get bogged down with a huge story and has a lot more shooting. We will have to catch swann up cos i get my arse kicked when playing at swanns level

Might join you on getting the DLC after I finish the game or if you fancy getting that one and sharing it with me, I’ll get one of the other ones and share it with you?

sounds good, i'll buy it and give you my details so you can download it,

good thinking, was telling swann earlier i found out theres a secret chest with a weapon which should be designed for the person opening the crate, so i'll show you on multiplayer and then we can all open it on single player, that way we all get a specialist weapon, yours is a Machine Gun, mine a Rocket Launcher and Swann's a Sniper, but their worth £300,000 each, so if ya don't like it flog it lol

Sounds good, there is a mini glitch in the game as well if you start a co-op and go to one of the auto save points, walk away from it and one persons dump all there guns, shields etc. for the other player to pick up and sell or keep, you then kick the person from the co-op and it doesn’t save again so when you come back into the co-op the other player has all your guns and you get all yours back.

Was going to suggest doing it last night just before you went, so you can get the shotgun I have as it’s a beast. it’s the one Swann uses as well

i wish i had borderlands sounds really good

y aye its a classic game, really fun, me + jake are upto a difficult part of da game in Old Haven with these bad guys with big fuk off shields n thy throw grenades at ya, il get u upto the same part mikey so me u n jake can progress together, oh n il warn u mike thrs a BIG rakk hive wer its spurts rakks at ya like kamakazee rakks tht blow up in ur face - its a real pain in the arsd killing tht hive thing n u will soon find out

oh n jake i like ur plan bout the map packs - both mw2's n BL's

i nw have thumb cramp 4 using ps3 controller, OUCH lol

it sounds good. i have fallout 3 and hopefully they put co-op in New Vegas cos it looks amazing and i would love to play it with friends.

fallout 3 was a great game but really pissed me off after a while. this game sounds cool ill check out some videos.

Finished this last night and it was a good show, not the most challenging of games just one you can chill out playing, plus you can play it again and still enjoy it, well worth £25.

I'd give it 7 out of 10

Was it just me or did the final boss look like the Blue waffle???

Yeah it did, i thought we'd get to go into the Vault and rape the fuck outta some Weapons Crates!!!!

Will pm you later Mike with the details of my 2nd account so you can get the DLC's!

Also Mike i think if you play the 2nd Playthrough the game starts on the level you finished at.

so say your level 35 all those skags and bandits at the beginning will be too, i think the loot is 10x better too!

ohh nice cheers mate, what’s it like?


I was playing with bud last night, think I’m level 36 he was level three, I was looking at the bad guys and they died from fear and he was struggling with them lol, he got excited when he found a shield at 105 then cried a little when I told him mine was 716

lol i got a shield of over 1000 capacity lol

Yeah the map packs are fun, just fully completed the zombie one and just started the General Knoxx Pack!

Got a new vehicle, its a beast!

i have borderlands but it seems mine doesnt work maybe because my connection is shit or my game is faulty i do not know , it seems no one else has ever had this problem as i searched in google and it says nout about it, it lets me play the game but doesnt let me go in private game or see my friends or hear anyone on the mic , bad buy for me i feel so im going to take it back to game as soon as possible

i'll come on in a bit adam an invite you to a game

mikey i carnt accept invites lol it says im online but doesnt show that i have friends online

strange might be just the disk

if nothing else is wrong with game, others games, or the console, then just bring it back and swap it, its a dud :/

adam try re-installing the game again, it may work

Just finished the first DLC the Island of Dr Ned thought it was a bit short as I finished it in a couple of hours last night, the Brains mission was a pain as it was the last one I found so if you get this DLC go straight to hollows end and its on the bottom left hand side of it and start it asap as you can do it while doing the other missions, top tip of the day for the zombies make sure you have a good gun with a fire element multiplier, them zombie buggers don’t like it when there on fire.

Just started the General Knoxx last night I’ll let you know what it’s like when I’m finished

Swann/Psycho I have the last map pack as well let me know when you’re ready for it and ill send you the details

Cheers Mike!

Let us know when your on the last DLC and we'll jump on with ya!
And if you need any help with Knoxx DLC give us a shout!

No Problem mate i'll have another blast at it tonight and try and catch you up

What level are you now?

41 I think and I see what you mean about getting 2 experience for killing huge things, my gun turret is amazing now gives health, ammo, two rounds per shot and fires rockets every 7 seconds. in the we tunnel you have to go through to get to Dr Ned at the lumber yard were loads of zombies come at you I just dropped it and it took about 20 out by its self including the big frankinzombie

O nice, i don't use my guys skill!
Only when i'm surrounded with no health lol

but i've upgraded all his Rocket Launcher abilities, i now produce 4 rockets a minute lol
