Game-Debate writes: "Borderlands was rather hastily compared to everything from Fallout 3 to Diablo 2 in the months before its release, but the recent slew of trailers featuring foul-mouthed robots and psychotic bandits, along with the colourful and controversial cover art, suggested a wicked sense of humour more akin to the Oddworld games or even Grand Theft Auto. Now that the finished product is here, it's obvious that Borderlands has indeed borrowed elements from a number of different games but combined them into a stylish and memorable first-person RPG." 8.5/10
