Borderlands is one of those titles that seems to have been around for a long long time. Gearbox, riding a positive wave of critical acclaim, announced the title as a serious sci-fi affair and it remained that way for much of its development. A few months back and the title appeared out of nowhere with a brand new comic book look. Much of what had existed as the games concept appeared to remain intact. An FPS-RPG (or Role Playing Shooter if you like) on a distant planet called Pandora. As a mercenary you set out to find a great treasure in a place known only as the Vault. 4/5
