Why I’ll Empty My Pockets for Borderlands 2 instead of Black Ops 2

Just like every other year, this fall will be loaded with blockbuster releases, most of which are sequels such as Halo 4, Assassin’s Creed III, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. Each of these games will continue to be over-hyped, release an unnecessary amount of trailers, and offer merchandiser-specific pre-order bonuses. Being someone that fits the poor college student stereotype, Chris from the D Pad D Bags only have so much money for gaming and Chris has already decided where that money is going: Borderlands 2.

Who the heck cares what you or others wil be buying or not....

[Aeon]

If you don't care then why did you click on it?

[_LarZen_]

The same reason I reply to you, I hate smart asses that tels me and others what they think.

[sllshrm]

Its called "Opinion" for a reason...

[spike]

You made an article about this. You must not have a life. Who the F#ck cares what game you are getting.

[Reverent]

You, obviously.

I wish they would spread the releases out more. They got like 6 games or more that I want coming out in October and the first week or two in November.
Halo 4
Borderlands 2
Black ops 2
Assassins creed 3
And some more I can't think of right now plus the vita versions and Pokemon black version 2 comes out October 17th also. Jeeze so many all cramed together.

I'm not buying another CoD game any time soon.
I've given up on all franchises that have annual releases, that means CoD, AC, EA Sports Games (which tend to suck though) and many others.
When a franchise becomes annual that often means that the publisher is VERY greedy and most of the time there's nothing in the previous game that can't be patched to make it have the features the new one has, if any.
It's ok to release every 2 years, or 3, to update graphics, but annual is just plain greedy.

If the game progressively get better I don't see any reason why they can't release annually. I for one think Assassin's Creed has gotten better with each new game they release. CoD however just keeps getting worse imo. I am really looking forward to Boarderlands 2 loved the first one a lot.

Why I’ll Empty My Pockets for Both!

[0neShot]

WTF? This is game news? Who the fck cares if a nobody buys a game of his choice?

[chanmasta]

Cool story bro.

[JBSleek]

I never understood why people compare two separate games of different caliber and then decide on the two.

Why not just buy both of them and judging games on leaked information is clearly the logical thing to do right? Right.

1.........2.......

Loot Box edition for me!

[jagstatboy]

If someone put a gun to your head and said you can only choose one then I agree with the author, Borderlands 2 it is.

For me the rest of this year is all about Borderlands 2, Assassins Creed 3, Halo 4 , Far Cry 3 , Hitman Absolution and (fingers Crossed for a 2012 release) Lego LOTR.
