    Default Borderlands

    The player versus player in it, is it common ground ? Also, online wise how hard is it to get that kind of gameplay ? I'm a pure online gamer and I'm down between MW2 and this. The features in Borderlands makes it seem so god dam appelaing however MW2 has amzaing online play.

    I normally hate realistic games but as do some of my friends and they're having a blast w/ it so I realy am blind here.

    Overall I think I'm going with boarderlands, seems like it's just a more complete game.

    Borderlands PvP is just duels (started by meleeing eachother) and arena, 1v1 or 2v2 (since its only 4 player coop) But the coop itself is amazing and the reasn to get it, MW2 blows, overhyped shooter. Same ol same ol. Borderlands is something new and youll prolly get more playtime from it if youve got some friends to coop with

    go get a MW2, borderlands may be cool but MW2 is great, I agree they've messed the game up with this IWnet but MP itself is amazing, if I was you however I wouldn't even consider getting borderlands over MW2

    Now im not trying to start a flame war or anything.. But you SERIOUSLY think MW2 is great? Your kidding right..? Its the Biggest overhyped piece of crap ever. Yes I have played it, and sure, its cool and all.. but its FAAAAAR From great, online is buggy as hell and everything has been done before. Borderlands is something new and intresting, not same ol same ol.

    hehe yea me and million other people think it's great, just look at xfire site, it's on the 3rd place of most played games, borderlands is ok but it's not that great, once you finish the game it's over... but you can always play MW2 online, and I don't think it's buggy at all

    borderlands is soo freaking awesome if u can get a good group together arround the same level

    but the host needs to kick lvl50's (unless its 2nd playtrough game) and all people that use modified weapons for the game to stay fun. kids lately like to showoff their 99999999damage guns and think they are pro this way. but actually they are the biggest noobs ruining the game without them even realising it.

    also be sure to pick up the Dr. ned zombie island and Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot DLCs. and soon The Secret Armory of General Knoxx will be out and thats gonna OWN! lol, heres some info about it http://www.gearboxity.com/content/view/556/33/

    Im not saying its not great or thats its horrible or anything.. but seriously, its been done before, i enjoy borderlands due to the fact is something new, and its not over if youve got friends, ive put hundreds of hours into borderlands with friends, but cant stand to even play MW2 anymore, it got old fast (Just my opinion, to each their own)

    And Oh Em Gee, Hello Kitty!!! *goes to download* I mean Uhh.... T_T

    I played Borderlands on my xbox 360 for about 2-3 weeks, got the best gear, beat the first expansion etc.. If you're looking for a serious first person shooter than go with MW2. Borderlands IS a blast, but it's kind of a screw around game and EVENTUALLY gets pretty dull. So.. I suggest you *cough* Borderlands and then buy MW2.

    Borderlands: Modded weapons = win (If you don't get it, people mod the damage of their guns, giving it a crazy dmg output)

    MW2 Online: Let's just say they made this game so easy that it requires no skill. What does that mean to you? Well it means that you get killed by the lamest things.

    On a side note: *hardcore HKO player*

    Yeah Borderlands ftw.. MW2 is all about camping, getting angry, raging, then repeating.

    Got to 4th prestige and I have to agree with you. Though I disagree about that Borderlands FTW part. The online part is pretty much a mess with all the modding and duping going on.

    Borderlands PVP is a complete afterthought. The game wasn't built around PVP, it was build around cooperative PVE.

    So unless you don't mind a game where all you can do is duel and those are over in a second because a berzerking brick can one shot you, Borderlands isn't a PVP game you'd enjoy.

    Online co-op is a mess right now. Modded guns are rampant.
    Made a public lobby, a level 70 hunter joined and 1 shotted The Destroyer on PT2.

    So sadly, I'd rather be playing MW2 right now.
