The Verge: "Despite some MMO design quirks and so-so mechanics, some great writing and coherent visual design set Borderlands 2 apart."
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
GF365: "Whether it be style, speed or firepower, these rides are sure to satisfy. Here are our picks for the ten best vehicles in video games."
The Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak from the Gran Turismo series
Nissan Skyline from Need for Speed Underground
Motorcycle Steamroller from Dead Rising 3
And finally a car you never drive but saves your ass over and over : Honey Badger from COD MW2
I was thinking of Mad Max. That V8 felt really good to drive around in, especially with upgrades.
I don't know... It was a strange addition to the game, and the parts of the game where you had to fight in it were tedious. But driving it around Gotham felt brilliant.
GF365: "Sometimes a funny and less stressful game is a welcome change. Here are the best comedic video games that will surely improve your mood."
7.5? You gotta be kidding me
Don't justify the reviewer by clicking.
Buy your pitchforks and torches 'ere! :D :P
'er...rather, your personalized Borderlands weapon to bring justice!
From the article:
"The shooting still lags behind other first-person frontrunners, and combat too often feels like an afterthought in Borderlands 2's enormous world."
"Borderlands 2 is unquestionably a better game than Borderlands. The new emphasis on elemental weapons and dismemberment make for better combat scenarios, and the constant character improvement is a great push forward for players looking for long-term rewards.(--->) But sticking around for those payoffs requires more patience than I'd hoped.(<---)"
"There's a sense of a constant grind. The basic gunplay that underpins Borderlands 2 is adequate to get things done. But it's nowhere near the responsiveness and encounter design of more dedicated shooters. The left-trigger aiming mechanic is paired with very aggressive auto-aim, so hitting things isn't a problem — it's just not very exciting. This makes clearing areas devolve into a same-y sort of job, rather than something fun."

You can turn that off I believe, if not on consoles than I am sorry that something is THAT severe aaand a game is only a (boring) grind when the player doesn't enjoy the content in front of them.
Playing the game now, I seriously get a HUGE wave of nostalgia, but also a sense of everything works flawlessly :) and I'm seeing myself always going "oooh, what's that!?" :P
Is the verge trying to be like egde? just saying.
