Benson13 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm picking up Borderlands 2 in a few minutes, will anyone else be playing on the 360? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) I pre-loaded that on my laptop that then died Saturday night... Edited September 18, 2012 by Mommar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benson13 Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 Man, that absolutely sucks. I'm assuming you have more than one computer to play it on though so it shouldn't be a total loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to top it off I ordered a new laptop and paid extra for rush build/delivery and I'm being told parts are on back-order and I have to wait until at least October 1st for the thing to ship.

Sounds like they need to refund your money on the rush/delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tochiro Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Might pick it up on the ps3 (apparently the better of the console versions) to play with some old friends in Taiwan but probably not until it gets discounted at the end of the year.

Benson13 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 I don't have a problem paying full price for any game that all my friends are playing. I'll typically wait for a price cut for any single player games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I just cancelled the order with that place. Wound up paying $300 more but I'll have my new computer Monday (looks like.) I did, however, find out that Borderlands 2 is actually playable on a six year old, buggy desktop with a video card that's only 256MB (their minimum specs are 512mb) but only if you turn everything off and run it in... wait for it, 640x480.

Benson13 Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 So far it's a pretty solid game. I really like the badass point challenges and how they allow you to beef up your character inbetween levels. The humor is fantastic in this game and makes you want to progress the story or sidequests further just to hear what some of the characters have to say.

Mommar Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I guess a minor nitpick, they were never going to able to top that awesome intro from the first game. As much as i like what they tried, and the song they used, not nearly the fun impact of the first. Is it just me or does this second one seem a lot harder? Ammo is not nearly as plentiful. You're pretty much forced to pick up and use lesser weapons... unless the resolution on my game has to be set so low (Friday... but probably Monday to fix that) I can't actually see some of the ammo clips? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radd Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I kinda agree on the intro, tho I still thought it was great. On the other hand, I think more of the "Borderlands personality" shines through the actual game this time. The original Borderlands? Kinda bland outside of the intro cut scene, up until you hit the DLC. This game shines right from the start and stays consistently entertaining. Harder, tho? I thought the start of the game was easier, and otherwise has remained about on-par with the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I seem to run out of ammo faster. But then it's harder to aim on this old crappy substitute I'm playing on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGrave Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 only problem I have so far is the lack of the audio log play back support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeyondTheGrave Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 uh no. was doing a quest that called for me to find audio logs. could barely hear what was said b/c of explosions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benson13 Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 That makes more sense. Once you get 4 players in there and you head into enemy territory things get pretty chaotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Picked it up for xBox 360. Really fun game so far, no complaints from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 My new computer finally arrive Monday and I had time to install the game last night and put it through it's paces. All of the PhysX and particle effects make it really hard to aim/shoot enemies. There's sparks and shards and smoke/fog and bits of cloth getting in front of EVERYTHING all the time.
