Description
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 it 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

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)

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

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

Another fantastic game, one that you will definitely enjoy and spend well over 65 hours in. With literally over a billion different guns to use, you'll find a bunch that fit your play style. Humor is hilarious and doesnt feel forced or generic. Characters have great individual personalities. Storyline is pretty long, plus there are well over 100 side missions to complete as well. The more players (up to 4 in one lobby), the better this game gets. A few moments can be a bit of a pain when it comes to difficulty, but again, the more players, the better.

I picked this game up for $11.99 with Deal of the Day. I originally had been waiting for it to fall to $19.99 but I got lucky. This game would've been worth the retail value. It is extremely fun, has a great story along with very awesome side quests that reference a lot of pop movie culture, and what I love most are the great characters and gameplay.
I can only compare this to Dead Island since that is the last first person RPG that I've played and I really enjoy this a lot more. This is primarily a first person shooter where as Dead Island focused more on melee. This game had more fun factor, due to it's lighter tone and fun references to pop movie culture (ex: TMNT, Batman, Fistful of Dollars, etc). Dead Island, of course, had a much more serious tone, but this had more rounded characters, and the dialogue is funny as hell!
I would definitely recommend this game and I'm surprised I had never heard of the first one. The opening theme song is "Short Change Hero" which is the theme song for one of my favorite shows, Strike Back, so that's another plus! Still in the middle of playing it on single player, while my other 3 characters level up on multiplayer (it's much more fun and faster to level up when playing with others).

This game is great, it is a change of pace from the call of duty series. The story line is very well written. I was also extremely excited about all the different weapons throughout the game. The Bullymongs are very interesting enemies and also a blast to kill.

I had never actually played the first BL, and wasn't really going to give this one the time of day either.
Then all my co-workers had raved so much about it, that I decided curiosity was overwhelming.
This game did not disappoint, in fact, it surpassed any pre-conceived notions I may have had in the first place.
It is quite a blast playing either single or multi-player in this outrageously colorful world full of guns, puns and buns....(well, mostly the first two....)
