Borderlands 2 Previews

" After all the screenshot leaks and naughty pre-announced announcement that sent Gearbox's Randy Pitchford’s head into a spin, Borderlands 2 has finally been unveiled at Gamescom. About damn time. The demo kicks off in an arctic tundra as snow flakes gently land on the screen and melt downwards. We immediately notice the graphical polish of the surrounding icy wastelands but there's no time for standing around in admiration, because no sooner has the Gunzerker - an evolution of Borderlands’ Berzerker - stepped forward than he's set upon by an Arctic Bullymong. What the hell's an Arctic Bullymong? Click on and find out. ..."

"Stellar writing and a host of small improvements help Borderlands 2 stand tall on the shoulders of its predecessor. "

"We take a look at Gearbox and 2K's Borderlands 2. While overall a solid co-op experience, Borderlands 2 is not without its flaws."

"We check out "Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty", a Borderlands 2 side-story that captures all of the original title's high points, and many of its flaws as well."

"Borderlands 2 is a very good game that, at worst, one could say requires more polish, but even then this polish is the kind that may not even be recognized as needed before launch. Thus is one of the challenges of game development and a healthy thing to keep in mind when getting a game on its release day. Of course I do believe a game should not have these minor issues when it releases, but I respect the fact that for every minor issue we see, there was at least one major issue we will never experience."
