IGN: Borderlands 2 Review in Progress

Anthony Gallegos: It's just about time to kill some skags, hoard guns and earn heaps of experience. To get you in the mood to read our upcoming Borderlands 2 review, we're running a series of articles leading up to our verdict, coming this Thursday, 9/14 at 12:01 A.M. PST. We'll cover topics like the loot system, the story and more, giving you a taste of how I'm feeling about each along the way. -

[HebrewHammer]

I've got $10 on a 9.5+

Who's over? Who's under?

[FoxHound_]

I see it getting a 9.5

[scotchmouth]

9.5

Ign liked the first go around and there is nothing but improvements here

[Surfaced]

Hell no, I'll be taking your $10 then.

It's a 9, at best. Probably the infamous 8.5 though.

[OMEGAZONE]

10/10

[antz1104]

9.5, hands down

[SilentNegotiator]

A gazillion to 1 on it being 9/10 or higher, like most games reviewed by IGN.

What a pointless article. I reported it as lame and hope you guys do, too.

[lonesoul65]

9.2

[Gordon_Shumway]

So, is this a review preview?

[aviator189]

That's IGN for you..

[paydayp]

i think its a preview of the review version of the game

[Armyless]

And of course this exciting news ends up on the N4G front page. I'm really beginning to find N4G a waste of time.

[JellyJelly]

I think this is a good thing. It means they are probably spending the required amount of time with the game in order to give it a fair score.

Better than spending 3-4 hours with a game that takes maybe 30 to finish and giving it some random score imo.

[Darkspade]

This game will get good scores, got IGN gets paid to give good Reviews..

[LOGICWINS]

Not disagreeing with you, but do you have actual proof? If it's true, it should be brought to light.

[PockyKing]

He won't have any proof, just like all the other people on the internet who make baseless claims all the time. Just like Call of Duty, IGN is the thing to hate sometimes. Not saying I agree with all their reviews etc, but hey it's their opinion, who cares.

[RustedMan]

why did you capitalize the word, "reviews"?

[Kurt Russell]

To give evidence of his mental capacity.

[NonApplicable]

@Darkspade

your an idiot...

[Sev]

You're*

[Darkspade]

Classic

[NonApplicable]

You guys realize being a grammar nazi on the internet is one of the most futile things you can do right? How bowt u korect all mi txt messages 2.

[SovereignSnaKe]

9.2

[snowman2149]

they dont give scores like that anymore. Its 8,8.5,9,etc

[cpayne93]

Why did you get disagrees? It's true, they go by .5s now.

[aviator189]

I'm going to say it'll get a solid 9.0.

[magtuse16]

I think Ign is going to make remarks about the story so 9.5

[LividAss]

Why are they crying that dressing up the characters isn't that deep? Does anyone give a shit about the clothes as there are millions of guns in this game with tons of variety and you get people moaning that they can't wear a blue hat. It baffles me but I guess they probably just added it in for girls. You can't even see a different colour of clothes anyway because it's an fps. Gearbox should of ignored these idiots demands for different appearances and made more enemy variety or something.

[paydayp]

i dont care about the score my mind is already made up i want it NOW

[pandaboy]

6/10 if they have any standards.

[Blastoise]

I'm calling a 9. But I doubt it will be as good as that

[Excalibur]

Wait wait wait...Am I to understand that this is a preview to a review? really?

Must be a slow news day.....

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Knowing IGN I'll say a 9.00 with a possibility of a 9.5

A 9.00 is more realistic score coming from IGN. They like to go high, but they barely do "near perfect" (which would be a 9.5)

[GTRrocker666]

What a pointless article ha
