As many of the guys out there (and ladies!) I enjoy playing the occasional video game. By occasional, I mean I spend way too much time playing video games when I should be doing something else. Anyway, the Borderlands 2 launch date trailer was put out yesterday and it looks great. Despite the horrid dubstep action (not a fan… whatever) it is a very well made trailer… and I am sure that it will be a great game, of course. The game will be out September 18 in the US and on the 21 internationally. It is already available for pre-order – which is a great deal because by September the price of games will probably have increased again. Enough with the chatter, check out the trailer.
Pre-order the game and gain access to the Borderlands 2 Premiere Club which allows you to download awesome in-game items. To pre-order please click here.
If you haven’t checked out the original Borderlands game, I highly recommend you do that. You can click here to pick it up for $29.99.
Borderlands 2 is a hybrid First-Person Shooter, RPG game focused on over-the-top co-op play, and set in the open-world game environment of the planet Pandora. The second game in the game series, Borderlands 2 raises the ‘loot and shoot’ action of the original game with an even larger and more detailed world to explore, an updated gun system, a new cast of characters and character classes, and integration of storyline with action.
Borderlands 2, sequel to the critically acclaimed and best selling role-playing-shooter hybrid, once again delivers its unique flavor, characters and addictive nonstop collaborative loot-shoot gameplay. As in the original game, Borderlands 2 features an openworld game environment, but this time around the world players experience is larger and packed with more depth at all levels. The game features an all-new cast of characters, skills, environments, enemies, weapons, and equipment that come together in a carefully crafted and connected story. Make new friends, arm them to the teeth and fight alongside them on a relentless quest for revenge and redemption through the undiscovered and unpredictable living world of Pandora.
- All-New Characters and Classes – Choose from all new characters and classes including the Gunzerker, who can dual-wield any two weapons in the game. Dual machine guns? Cool. Dual rocket launchers? Of course. Dual sniper rifles? sure, if that’s your thing.
- Play Online with Friends – Share your adventures with friends both online and via LAN through a seamless system enabling you to drop in and drop out of a campaign without ever having to restart the game.
- World Connected Story – Left for dead in the frozen tundra of Pandora, begin your quest of revenge and redemption as the story drives you closer to the Hyperion Corporation and its evil founder, handsome Jack.
- New Badass Gun System – Millions upon millions of possible weapons means tons of new and innovative ways to engage foes on Pandora. Fire, electricity, corrosive acid, and more will all be at your disposal.
- 87 Bazillion…Everything – It’s not just guns on Pandora, you will lust after procedurally generated shields, grenades, alien artifacts, class mods and much, much more.
- Brand-new Environments – From the arctic tundra, through the dangerous grasslands, past the mysterious corrosive caverns to beyond, discover more of the unpredictable world of Pandora at every turn.
- Brand-new Enemies – 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 face.
merchandise or even a private acoustic show for your money-giving fans, you have to offer up some good rewards to get people to fund your project. If you offer up the right things, people will give you money. (Remember… the rewards have to be good and equivalent to the amount you are asking.)
