Borderlands Review

http://www.thehardcast.com/?p=768
Gearboxs new IP is finally here. Just in time for the holidays and guess what, it seriously kicks ass! A first person shooter with a significant amount of RPG elements. You could call it an RPS (Role-Playing-Shooter). Probably the most successful fusion of those two genres thus far. Snazzy visuals, massive assortment of firepower, and insanely fun 4 player co-op.

The first thing that jumps out at you when you see Borderlands in action are the cel shaded (hand drawn) comic book style graphics. An attempt on the developers part to stand out from the crowd and I think they managed to achieve that goal. As far as the RPG elements are concerned, theres leveling up, 4 unique character classes, proficiency improvements, ability mods, and skill trees. Theres also a great deal of variety in the firepower that is littered throughout Pandora. The most guns (boomsticks) youve ever seen in any game, period! The 4 player Co-Op is a blast and the true way this game was meant to be played. Definitely a worthy title to throw on your x-mas wish-list and one of the biggest surprise hits of the year.

Catch a ride with The Hard Cast as we go vault hunting across Pandoras treacherous and chaos ridden wasteland. Just remember to share the loot and stay away from Scooters mom!

P.S. We cant wait for the DLC coming out Nov. 24th!
