Junior Smart of Frost Magazine writes 'I do think Borderlands 2 is a great game but not an ‘all out fantastic must buy’; the reason? Well, it’s not something that you won’t have or will play anywhere else – unless you are scratching your neck for your next fix of Modern Warfare or Battlefield, genuinely have too much time on your hands or really have a spare £40 burning a hole in your pocket I would say hold out just a little bit longer as some real gems are just over the horizon and when they come out the price of this will drop like a stone.'
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.

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.

Umm...
Did you even play the game "Junior Smart"? To equate Borderlands to CoD or Battlefield is ridiculous at best, and supremely idiotic as it stands. Both of those games give you ~30 weapons... Borderlands gives you 30 weapons on the first level alone.
To state that BL is "just" an FPS, and not mention anything about the RPG elements is a gigantic oversight in a review.
Yes, it's an acquired taste, but DAMN, it tastes freaking fantastic. I hate that people review games and simply compare/contrast them to games that are only slightly similar in nature. This isn't a BF/CoD/Halo/Killzone-esque game... stop comparing it to those type games.
