Que?

I can't remember if it was a pic from last year's game or the year before but I thought the absolute bile being used as Tags on the pic was funny.

I came in thinking it would be a mountain of Skip Bayless disses but The Internet surprised me.

Picked up Borderlands today after work. Figured it's finally time to test the water after hearing everybody say how awesome it is.

Which version? I'm done with the 360 version but I'm all about the PS3 version. You get the GotY?

Speaking of GotY, after playing through most of the co-op campaign and just a smidge of the solo, at this point Portal 2 is in the lead. Amazing game.

Dead Space Extraction....worse demo ever. Shit is nothing but an interactive movie. Character moves on his own all you do is move a cursor around to *grab and shoot? Fuck outta here.

Driver multiplayer demo is sweet.

I renewed last month, and saw one of those deals on the dashboard, it was $9 for 3 months. I usually get a year, but couldn't really pass that one up.

I'm pretty sure it's just a light gun shooter in the vein of Time Crisis and other such arcade games...

Originally came out for Wii, which is why it's like that. For a Wii game, it was reviewed very well

DS: Extraction is a rail shooter. It's ok with the DualShock 3, but I'd imagine it plays better with a Move controller.
