Borderlands is the only FPS I still enjoy playing these days.
Everything else is usually COD'd into rubbish.

uptownsoul4000d ago (Edited 4000d ago )

I love the RPG elements, all those weapon variations, and the open world-ness of it.

cleft54000d ago

When the article said Current Gen Only, I was thinking wow that sucks only on PS3 and 360. I really need to get use to thinking that Current Gen is the PS4 and Xbox One already.

Tru_Blu4000d ago

cleft, I was doing the same thing. Got pissed for a minute lol

Hoffmann4000d ago

There are a few exceptions like those Indie FPS which are more focussing on the Doom Labyrinth Type Shooter Era though

Assassingamer1364000d ago

You know you will play Fallout once it comes out :P

KwietStorm_BLM3999d ago

I don't really look at Fallout as a FPS.

ChickenOfTheCaveMan4000d ago

So you missed on The New Order because you put all FPS' in the same basket, your loss.

xxxGEOxxx3999d ago

How about FPS's like Bioshock, Far Cry, Metro games and even Singularity (that I REALLY hope gets a sequel)?

Those are not COD clones and offer light RPG elements (Also, some of my personal favortites).

Borderlands made by the original devs and only on current gen consoles? Now we're talking...

Can't wait to see what they have in store this time.

ironfist924000d ago (Edited 4000d ago )

I dont want MMO, however, a hub like Destiny where you can interact with other players, create a team, then venture off into missions with just the four would be great imo.

That and individual loot. Dont want people stealing all the best guns. And better character development, contextual dialogue from the Vault Hunters.

gangsta_red3999d ago

I hear ya, that sounds cool.

But I disagree with the stealing loot. I played with friends and stealing loot was some of the best times we had in the game.

I hope they have a good amount of characters with impressive skill sets. At least 5 or six off the bat to choose from.

Clown_Syndr0me3999d ago

Individual loot ruins games. Ruined Diablo 3 for me. I like to roll for loot, it's part of the fun!

trywizardo4000d ago

i hope that means a lot of upgrades in the game , since BL have cartoonish graphics that means it won't need any upgrade (maybe a little upgrade though), gives more time for the gameplay elements to be upgraded

Christopher4000d ago

I'm hoping they spend more time on evolving the gameplay and making that story as good as B2 and its DLC. Graphics from B2 on PC are perfectly fine for me on 8th gen consoles.

BitbyDeath4000d ago

More importantly, keep splitscreen.
That should be #1 on the list.

ShellB4000d ago (Edited 4000d ago )

Maybe traveling to different planets? searching for vaults (big , crazy boss fights). I would like that. I would like that very much.

leemo194000d ago

Looking forward to it and the craziness the devs have in-store for it.

FallenRain4000d ago (Edited 4000d ago )

So its not actually confirmed?...

Agheil4000d ago

Exactly.... I really dislike articles that don't have sources.

ironfist924000d ago

Gearbox havent confirmed it. Theyve only said they plan it in the future. 2K acknowledges it exists and is probably in pre-production stages.

So semi-confirmed.

dumahim4000d ago

Randy Pitchford tweeted about seeking talent to work on the next Borderlands, I'd say it's confirmed. How far it is in the process is the only unknown.

Borderlands 3 player count is up 486% as movie gets absolutely destroyed by critics and fans

The new Borderlands has been a huge flop, but it has caused the video games to see a boost in popularity following its release.

Damn, the Fallout tactic but reversed..

Inverno522d ago

I am glad the movie is bombin, can we stop making horrible adaptations now?

ChronoJoe522d ago

There have been some good adaptations recently though. I think the Gran Turismo movie is really good and The Last of Us and Fallout TV shows are great too.

If they're going to try, some of them are going to fall short. That's just inevitable. If anything we should encourage more effort so that they learn more about what makes some of these work, while others don't. Honestly I think Borderlands should have been a hit, but I think it would have been much better as an animated show akin to the League of Legends TV show on Netflix.

Inverno521d ago

Yea but the good to bad ratio still leans more to the bad. All the ones you pointed out have been pretty great, can't wait for season 2 of all those shows. With that said, you can't "fall short" unless it's on purpose, in this case it's Borderlands. These characters, the world, the lore is/are fleshed out, there's a ton of source material, there are 7 games!

Kosic522d ago (Edited 522d ago )

But BL3 is the worst one in the series....should do #2 and experience Handsome Jack

Michiel1989522d ago

there was no actor handsome enough available to play Jack

DustMan522d ago

Nah. Tiny TIna's Wonderland is the worst in my opinion. I enjoyed 3 more than the "pre-sequel" and Tiny Tina's Wonderland.

Dudeson522d ago

Agreed, at least 3 felt like borderlands, gameplay was great, bosses were interesting. Wonderlands was just a turn in the wrong direction, the idea seemed great, but playing through the game just didn't feel like borderlands to me. Also dlc scam.

porkChop522d ago (Edited 522d ago )

My issue with TTW is that it's supposedly a new IP in the Borderlands universe, not just a Borderlands game. Yet it plays and feels just like Borderlands with some magic tacked on. For every cool new idea there's a handful of ideas just rehashed from Borderlands. They really didn't do enough to make it feel like its own thing. It's still just an FPS with guns, except the guns are magical now. Why not focus instead on crazy melee weapons, bows, and magic/spells instead?

Lighter9522d ago

I'd say the pre-sequel because of the low gravity. That was horrible.

porkChop522d ago

In terms of gameplay BL3 is the strongest in the series. It's the narrative that really lets that game down.

ChronoJoe522d ago

Eh...

The story is definitely worse but there's more to these games than that. Gameplay, loot, endgame and build variety is definitely better in 3. I think they did a great job with the game, some of the DLC is fantastic too.

Kosic521d ago

I agree with people are saying. There's sole really good ideas in the games followed by some odd choices. I loved Bl2 , and I liked the presequel because it tries to explain Handsome Jack's downfall (YouTube game theory handsome jack).

Also PreSeq, has this really cool team play where talents could help pick your friends up from bleeding out. Athena throwing her shield if it bounces of a player they are picked up from dying. Head shots Aith the sniper chick etc.

BL3, I cannot get past the annoying social media influences, it's meant to be funny, it's just unbearable. Gameplay feels solid though. But I've not made it past lvl 20 ish on 3 tries. The story does not interest me, the classes are poor and talents feel bland.

gold_drake521d ago

i didnt like 3s sotry villains, like at all.

but i dont think any of the borderlands mainline games were "bad". i nejoyed all of them

but im not part of the community and play them mostly with my friends or alone.

there are worse games rly.

Like they said...a bad publicity is still a publicity

jznrpg522d ago

I totally forgot there was a movie coming out. I’m not a big fan of adaptations mainly because most of them suck and they take away from me playing video games. I didn’t get into Borderlands 3 game. 1 was my favorite 2 was pretty good but a third with more of the same didn’t interest me much to begin with.

If you added Among Us and Borderlands 3 to your library they won’t disappear. Not sure if any others were part of essential or not but if they were and you added them to the library they also will still be in your library

OtterX538d ago

Yea, not really a loss since we got them with the Monthly Games. :)
