Borderlands is really promising just stop once you get to the mountain and never ever play it again

Those of you that have played that game, please fill in the blank:

"If you dug _________ , you will probably like Borderlands."
Only dicked around with it once, but I got drunk and the small font mission text gave me the spins while trying to read it, so my contribution is a bit narfed, but I'd say:

"If you dig the idea of a First Person Shooter in the vein of Diablo, you will probably like Borderlands."

The game seems like a lot of grinding, rudimentary grinding. I'm afraid Skyriim may of ass-fucked any chance I have of liking this.

I hated the ending so fucking much that I hated the game itself for over a year and and promised no more money to that piece of shit so no I didn't play any DLC

i think it took them at least 3 games to figure out how to map the controls to the dual analog sticks properly

if theres ever one perfect iteration that works the sticks properly and has zillions of parts i'll probably buy it

I'm not sure if I've already mentioned it, but if you guys haven't at least rented Saints Row 3 and had a few beers, you are missing out.
Game is fucking stupidly fun.

It's doesn't have the tightest controls...or the best graphics...or best voice acting. But starts out a blast and never really lets up.

Dishonored and Max Payne 3 are at the top of my 2012 hype list.

Prey 2 has the potential to be really awesome. Bounty hunter going after alien criminals in a Blade Runner styled open world.

I remember holding him up the first time I played, don't remember how difficult it was.
Think I used the mic on him, or maybe used the contra code.

Really need to get that HD pack, along w/ Ico and SotC.

i don't want to spoil the good vibes of the skyrim thread, but somehow at about 40 hours it just became completely uninteresting to me. don't know why. hopefully i'll get the desire to return to it at some point :?

anyone played trine 2, demo or full game? it has to be one of the most beautiful games EVER. music is awesome too. if you like 2D platformers at all it's worth checking out.

Other than a 3D camera...aren't the controls pretty much the same for all the games??
I'm assuming the HD pack gives all the games a 3D camera? ...I hope?

I checked out the demo last night. When I selected it for download, I was like "Let's see what this gay shit is about". And then when I hit play, I was like "OOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooo.....preeeeeetty."

Amazing environments. Fun little puzzles. I'll probably actually buy it the next drought that I come across.
