    ~~~BORDERLAND~~~

From what it says, looks like an RPG-style game. You level up in a similar way to Diablo. There are 800,000+ Weapons (Probably the same, just different colors/dammage) and Vehicular combat.It is for the PC, Xbox360, And PS3. It comes out Feb. 2, 2009

Online is 4 player co-op and additional modes. If somoeone dies, you can pick up anything he/she was wearing/using. I hope you don't lose it forever though =(.
There are 3 different playable characters each with their own unique abillities.
Some of the Screenshots look pretty damn good also.

Some neat things and i quote:
"We saw a ridiculous amount of guns, but perhaps the strangest was a revolver that fired shotgun shells. Gearbox is constantly surprised with what the system comes up with. They've seen rifles shoot everything from homing darts to rockets. 'One of the guns tracks onto something and locks, and after three seconds, [the target] suddenly explodes,' director Matthew Armstrong says."

Another quote:
The features of the maps will also be randomly generated. While towns, and the general paths connecting them will remain the same, Borderlands features a system that randomly instances the surrounding landscape, with randomly placed things such as bunkers, towers, caves, enemies, and exploding cacti. All of this is done without a loading screen. Gearbox plans that the player will not see a loading screen after they boot up the game

Aye. Google Images- "Borderland game" and see if you can find pic of guns. I found some plasma guns, assault rifle, magnums, smgs, and a badass rocket-launcher-shooting-shotgun.

Cool, so it's like a weapon generator?


SURPRISE SURPRISE! It's not for Wii! Nothing good is for Wii :(
