Borderlands from Gearbox

See I don't get this. Aren't UKMail simply "downstream access providers" (I think that's the term) like TNT and Business Post - they collect and collate mail, but then still give it to Royal Mail to deliver.

Courier delivered mine at 3pm next day when I bought off them.

Really happy to see all these good reviews rolling in. It definitely has a charm to it and even though I completed it and leveled up to around L34 or so all in single player, I'd be up for doing it again now online with some friends all over again.

Roughly how many hours of gameplay do you reckon it's got in it? I'm hoping it lasts me a long time, and then the DLC comes and keeps me hooked.

Looking forward to trying this. Any high street date breakers as of yet? Granger Games are known for it around here (North East England) but of course there is always the possibility of a supermarket sweep, but I think they may be saving up the loss for MW2 (we live but in hope).

I've heard 30 hours put around, though if you get into it I suspect you can at least double that. Don't worry about being burned out before the DLC comes along though, the first of it has been announced to coincide with Halloween ( they're not even pretending to care about consumer feelings anymore ).

In its review, GT quoted around thirty hours. Obviously more should you pace it.

[dogsout]

Cheers, lads, that sounds good.

In the U.S., Wal Mart is doing Borderlands (360) for $39.95 in another loss leader promotion.

Let Mr Tesco know and who knows what might happen..

Let Mr Tesco know and who knows what might happen..

We'll get it for £37.99

[moosegrinder]

I've just realised I have a Green Day ticket to pay for so this has gone on hold Unless I can finish something to trade, but I haven't got time at the mo.

[PeteJ]

My zavvi order still hasn't shipped, might just have to try the one remaining independant store and see what I get.

Green day are fucking shit etc......... ( © Predictable Corleth music comments INC. )

[moosegrinder]

I know, which is why I'm not happy about paying £40 for a fucking ticket I committed to it though, and he's me best mate so it's done.

Ordered from Zavvi on Monday, it arrived yesterday and last night a 5 minute quick go turned into 4 hours.

I think it looks great and plays really nicely. The thing it reminds me the most of is Phantasy Star Online although I've yet to experience the co-op. I'm really looking forward to that, it should be ace.

[donpeartree]

2 zavvi orders on the same day and they only sent one of them - the wrong one.

[Massive Invisible Dog]

I ordered from Zavvi on Monday as well. It still says "Awaiting dispatch", but I've been charged for it

[dogsout]

Same here. Won't be using them again.

[Massive Invisible Dog]

They've been pretty good for me recently. I got Batman and ODST quickly.

[Rudi von Starnberg]

I've heard quite a few horror stories about Zavvi recently from friends. Games taking upwards of 2 weeks to arrive despite '5 working days' being their line on delivery.

[Ferine]

I ordered from them last Friday and have yet to have my copy dispatched, although the money for it was taken 2 days ago. Guess I won't see it until next week now, which is annoying.

[murray]

The Zavvi store in Leeds has stopped selling games, which is worrying. Worrying for the state of their online game ordering, I mean.

[The Mighty Ash]

Separate companies I think.

[murray]

Oh yeah, you're right; the store is now called Head.

[lovemonkey uk]

Just got mine through the post about 20 minutes ago! Post hasnt been too efficent, but i dont mind was expecting it tomrrow, not today. Nice surprise eh?

[SteveH]

Forgive me if it has been mentioned. But for those that have it, can you switch on and off components of the HUD. Or even better, fade it out as much as possible. Looks far too busy for my liking. Cheers

No to both, though in my opinion all the stuff showing on the UI is pretty useful.

[Dave White]

I really like the look of this, but I hate the whole Grind aspect to Rpg's is this really heavy, or because of the fps aspect is it not so bad?

[fatoy.japa]

I've caved and traded a few old favourites in so that I can pick this up on Friday. I haven't Diablo'd since Dungeon Siege, if that makes a lick of sense. Doing so in the Crackdown visual mode and with a shooting component that apparently resembles a mix of Call of Duty and Fallout 3 sounds like as good an excuse as any.

[Guest]

Any reviews from someone who's actually played it?

[Kryptonian]

Does the guy who does the voice for HK-47 in KoToR do any voices in this, thought I heard him or someone similar
