Borderlands 2 “a no-brainer” [1]
In an interview with vg247, Gearbox’s Creative Director Mike Neumann commented on plans regarding the future of the “Borderlands” franchise:
“Everyone here loves the franchise, and it seems like the public is really coming back with praise and love. So yeah, if everything makes sense, Borderlands 2 seems like a no-brainer to me.”
He also remarks that despite there being some (watercooler) talks about it, “nothing so far is planned”, so don’t count your Skags just yet.
Borderlands’ Zombie Island DLC dated [1]
We hope you haven’t forgetten about “Boderlands” just yet with all this hubbub surrounding “Modern Warfare”, as Gearbox has just announced (via 1UP) that the first DLC, “The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned” will be hitting PSN and Xbox Live on November 24th and it will set you back $/€ 9,99 or 800 Microsoft Points respectively.
No news yet on a PC release. Maybe 1 week later?
We’re hoping for a a raised level cap, ‘Ding! Champion’ is so close I can almost feel it.
GTTV shows tons new BioShock 2 footage [2]
Geoff Keighley has taken it upon himself to ruin every game for you 2 months in advance, and he’s trying his darnest to do the same for “BioShock 2″. Unsuccessfully, of course, but the resulting footage is surprisingly impressive and will probably rekindle everyone’s dwindling excitement for the sequel to 2007’s game of the year.
BBFC: The Ballad of Gay Tony Features Strong Sex [1]
If you were wondering, what Rockstar is going to do in “The Ballad of Gay Tony” to shock moms, little girls and grandmothers, the BBFC has the answer:
The game includes some sex scenes. The sex is quite strong, but always masked and the characters concerned are invariably fully clothed (no nudity).
Fully clothed sex is well scandalous. Thanks to Eurogamer for diggin this up.
Gearbox working on resolving Borderlands PS3 issues [1]
PlayStation 3 gamers who have picked up Gearbox’ “Borderlands” might be in for quite a surprise, nay, shocker: There’s some connectivity problems with the game. To be more exact, it seems that for now, there is no way to invite your PSN friends to your game. But worry not, as the guys at Gearbox are hard at work rolling out a solution that will alleviate these issues. Scott Velasquez on the official Gearbox forum:
“We’ve identified the problem and are working on a fix. Believe it or not, the friends feature was heavily tested by Gearbox and 2K. However, this particular issue we found could have never manifested itself in our or 2K’s test environments.”
While it is probably very upsetting, it is good to know that Gearbox are aware and working on the fix. We will update you once the patch goes live. (via G4)
Pitchford: “Borderlands selling out everywhere” [Comments Off]
It seems the industry and gamers in general are playing a game of inverse-Simon-Says with Michael Pachter, as Randy Pitchford, CEO and president of Gearbox, was happy to report via Twitter that “Borderlands” is doing pretty well:
Getting reports from everywhere that Borderlands is selling out. If you want a copy, grab one fast. Supply and demand.
It damn better be. It’s quite good.
Review: Borderlands [Comments Off]
A massively co-op 4 player class based First Person Shooter/Role Playing game whets a lot of people’s appetites — is “Borderlands” a juicy steak or a Pavlov’ish exercise in salivation? Read our review to find out. Bring a snack! continue reading →
Pachter: Borderlands Sent to Die [16]
Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities, famed video-game industry analyst, predicts a bleak future for 2K & Gearbox’s baby “Borderlands”: on yesterday’s episode of the Bonus Round, the ‘Pac-Man’ had some harsh words for the innovative roleplaying shooter hybrid:
Sent to die. I think “Borderlands” is the definition of a game that should have had it’s own window and not be up against all this stuff. It’s absolutely the same audience. I don’t think it’s as much an RPG as they would like us to believe. If it’s an RPG, “Dragon Age” is going to kick its butt; and if it’s a shooter, “Call of Duty” or something else is going to kick its butt.
Looks like Randy Pitchford is in for a couple of sleepless nights before October’s NPDs hit… in November. We’re not analysts here at wearetheinternetz, but we love what we played so far, not unconditionally, mind you, it’s not like we’re its parents. Expect our review tomorrow!
