Synopsis

Synopsis
Borderlands 2 furthers the distinct blending of First-Person Shooter and Role-Playing genres to create the true evolution of the Role-Playing Shooter. Team up with up to three other players for four-player online goodness or go old-school with two-player, split-screen, couch-sharing mayhem as you spend hours leveling up your character and equipping them with one of the millions of weapons. Borderlands 2 features a new visually stunning array of procedurally generated guns, shields, grenades, artifacts, enemies and more. Choose one of the four new character classes to be taken through a carefully crafted and connected story to all-new and surprising environments across the living planet of Pandora. Make new friends, arm them to the teeth and fight alongside them on your relentless quest for revenge and redemption.

Features

  • Gunzerker Leads a Cast of All-New Characters and All-New Classes: Step into the role of the Gunzerker, whose highly deadly skills allow him to dual-wield any two weapons found in the game
  • Not only that, you will build on that skill to do more things with two guns than you ever imagined possible
  • Dual machine guns? Cool. Dual rocket launchers? Of course. Dual Sniper Rifles? Sure, if that's your thing. Want to try other styles? More tactical perhaps? There are multiple classes to choose from
  • Dynamic Co-op online, split-screen and LAN: Share your adventures with friends both online and via LAN
  • Borderlands 2 features a seamless system enabling you to drop in and drop out of a campaign without ever having to restart the game. On top of that you can even take your new gear from any game to any other
  • World Connected Story: You will find yourself left for dead in the frozen tundra of Pandora as you begin your quest of revenge and redemption
  • Expose the evil surrounding the Hyperion Corporation and take on the perpetrator of a universe-wide grand deception — the nefarious Hyperion CEO, Handsome Jack (Oh, also: he's stolen credit for the opening of the Vault)
  • New Gun System: An entirely new take on the groundbreaking procedural system means millions upon millions of possible weapons
  • The variety and style of guns in Borderlands 2 is staggering, and you'll see tons of new and innovative ways to engage foes on Pandora
  • Fire, electricity, corrosive acid, and much more will all be at your disposal as you fight your way through the Hyperion Corporation's forces
  • 87 Bazillion...Everything: In addition to the new gun system, you will lust after procedurally generated shields, grenades, Alien Artifacts, class mods and much, much more. And you thought the original Borderlands had a ton of loot
  • Brand new environments on Pandora: Hunt through entirely brand new areas of Pandora that are more alive than ever
  • From the arctic tundra, through the dangerous grasslands, past the mysterious corrosive caverns to beyond, you'll be surprised by the unpredictable world of Pandora at every turn
  • Brand new enemies: A whole slew of new enemies are out there to kill you in Borderlands 2
  • Hulking, gorilla-like Bullymongs, vicious predatory Stalkers and the Hyperion mechanical army, run by Handsome Jack, are just some of the new enemies you will be facing off against on Pandora
  • New strategies will need to be created for every fight, as enemies now interact and aid each other to ensure you don't get far in the world of Pandora

A lot more borderlands
4
Posted by: from Salt Lake City, UT on 05/06/2013I quite enjoyed my time with Borderlands 2, but I'll admit I was glad when it was over. Borderlands is an action-oriented FPS with tons of places to explore and tons of treasures to loot and baddies to kill. I really enjoy the Borderlands series, with its crazy stories and insane amount of weapons. My one critique of this game is that it felt too much like the original to me. While I loved the original, I would have liked to see a few more innovations in the gameplay for this sequel. There are a lot of people that can play Borderlands for 100's of hours, but I'm not one of them. After I finished my first playthrough of around 40 hours, I was done. It's a great game, but I felt myself getting burnt out by the end.

Good game could be better

Posted by: from on 04/27/2013Great story line, lots of weapons but you die too easily. Your shields are gone in one shot. It seems like they want to you use the "Second Wind" function or have a teammate revive you. If they fix it so that you don't die in 2-3 shots, it would be a great game.

You kill lots and lots of guys...

Posted by: from on 04/15/2013This is a really fun game, particularly if you're playing it with other people. Lots of shooting, lots of looting - not much else. I have to say, that after beating the game on normal and true vault hunter, here isn't a ton to do. Killing bosses over and over again to get the best weapons is alright... Although the rewards are few and far between. Now that the new mode is released, I might just have to revisit this game.

Great sequel
5
Posted by: from on 04/15/2013It's still got some awesome characters (Tiny Tina!) and some of the best humor. A great sequel to the series, but it still has some of the same issues with inventory management and item pickup weapon switching is horrible. Mechromancer DLC makes up for it all though. So much fun.

Enjoyable FPS, teamplay, and customization
4
Posted by: from North Carolina on 04/07/2013Very enjoyable first person shooter gameplay and replay value. There are so many items to "loot" in the game and part of the replay value is collecting the best weapons possible. Working as a 4 person team in co-op play is a lot of fun and the enemies level up to make gameplay more challenging. Single player is great and will most likely draw in players to play through the game multiple times. The game shines in multiplayer though, as teamwork is needed to make it through and the rewards are much better. The DLC adds to the replay value and there are more playable characters that are added.

Best game ever!
5
Posted by: from Portland,Oregon on 04/05/2013Better than any other game I've played, love the fact that I can trade weapons with friends. Dueling friends to test out guns is awesome. Many game modes to play. For each one there is a higher difficulty and you get better loot.

Best Co-op game I have played for a while
5
Posted by: from Florida on 03/10/2013I have played the story a few times on co-op and me and my friend are still entertained with it. Usually after a play through or two, we move on to something else. This game has managed to keep us interested for a few play through's and I see a 4th in the near future. You spend your time leveling up, gaining xp, going on missions. You get to upgrade your armor, weapons, etc.. as you go. The co-op is setup to allow you and your friend to always remain at the same point. Example: if you turn in a mission your friend also gets the turn in, same works for you when they turn it in. The best part is the different weapons and pick ups as the guns get pretty insane the higher level you get. I would suggest picking this up if you are looking for a good co-op with the a high replay value.
