Ah yes indeed. phew, I thought you were going to say something like the PC version is bugged or weaker than another version 😉

I don't think there is any specific info on the PC version at the moment, but there's also no reason to assume that it would be somehow inferior to the console versions.

Apparently 'PC Gamer' gave it a good rating, so probably no reason to worry about the PC version.

I got this game just now. It's pretty damn fun so far, but I wish it had higher graphical settings and anti-aliasing support. It doesn't even warm my PC up!

PC Gaming is for losers.

I don't know what kind of losers leave out anti-aliasing support in today's games giljotiini

Great game, just got it.....love it so far.

But......GAMESPY SUCKS ASS!!!!! so much damn connection issues, I am lucky to connect to 1 out of 15 servers I try and connect too. And at times I will still drop out because of a connection issue.

so whats everyones verdict on this title so far?.. must buy? rental?.. wait for platinum hits? lol

Its a 100% buy. Screw MW 2 and their control Nazi server, this is a sleeper hit and game of the year.

GAMESPY SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! though.

Well, I'm enjoying the hell out of Borderlands. It's definitely buy-worthy, in my opinion.

Definately agreed.

Borderlands is making a strong case for being Game of the Year.

But....someone hacked my gamespy account. I changed my PW hopefully it will keep that person out (I seem to have it still). This game seems to be soooo bad on hacks. People have level 100 but max is 50, they have crazy powerful weapons at mid levels.

Umm....its Diablo 2 all over again. I think there is not even a anti cheat program for BL.

I finished the game:

Spoiler:
the ending(at least I assumed it's the ending) was an epic disappointment

I am loving the game although I did have the same problem as AG. It did not bother me so much though as I still love the main gameplay.

On a side note, whats everyones favourite weapons that they have found so far? and their class you are playing ofc.

I play as Brick, the Berserker.

Um, favorite weapon so far is probably my Revolver and my Rocket Launcher, Revolver is bladed, has a good scope, decent rate of fire, and great damage, and the launcher has a leet scope, very high damage, and a surprising rate of fire.

Not progressed to the end of the game I admit, been busy with other stuffs, but I hear the final boss is basically an

Spoiler:
Eldritch Abomination
.

On a side note, has anyone categorized the quality level of items in Borderlands?

I've seen White, Green, Blue, Purple, Yellow and Orange.

I've acquired this lvl 19 Orange revolver(I think the only Orange weapon I encountered in the whole game) and it was still kicking ass by the end of the game.

@TGE, yea the last boss is basically it.

Yes Orange is the best, I use a level 42 orange sniper rifle with x4 elemental fire damage and like over 400 normal damage. Needless to say, one shot can decimate most foes. I use a few good orange, purple, blue and even a green weapon. its surprising how far the level of an item can surpass its rarity when power is concerned. For instance I have found a couple of orange weapons that are simply useless compared to some blue or even green items.

Look closely, those items may have been yellow.

I think I figured it out:
White - Common
Green - Uncommon
Blue - Superior
Purple - Epic
Orange - Legendary

Wait, what?

Where does Yellow fit in, though?

White < Green < Blue < Purple < Light Orange < Orange < Dark Orange

That is the weapon ranking system.

...Are you trying to apply WoW's weapon system with Borderland's?

Thanks.

It's very similar to the WoW ranking system indeed.
