Review:
Borderlands
by: Mickael Giroux
Developed by Gearbox Software, out on XBOX 360, PS3,
and PC, Borderlands is a game packed with action and something for
everybody. Borderlands has received many good ratings, a 8.8 out of 10 from
IGN.com, and has even been compared to a great game that came out a few
years back, Blizzard’s Diablo. Being a action RPG game, this game is loaded
with blood and gore, which explains its Rating M for mature.
Gamers are thrown in a world of thievery and treasure hunting with rusty
guns, deciding from 4 different classes with very different abilities and
stats. Choose from a heavy hard to kill guy or just be your average stay
back and shoot type. Gearbox has done a good job of incorporating plenty of
quests to do and mixing in vehicular combat along with melee combat. So with
all these different ways to smash and have fun, you never get bored.
Many people have argued that Gearbox should have included more abilities to
the classes, but most people get past that and realize that the game is more
about getting large guns, or guns that shoot fire!
I give this game a 9.5. This game has yet to fail me and I haven’t once
thought to put down the controller while playing Borderlands. Yes, I do not
like the fact that the classes only get one special ability but I quickly
got over that when I got my lightning shotgun. Big thumbs up for Gearbox’s
Borderlands!
