    Borderlands 2! 96.5% AWIMAWEHAWIMAWEH

    http://kotaku.com/5827241/borderland...ds-2-is-coming
    Post-apocalyptic shooter Borderlands is getting a sequel. It's called Borderlands 2.

    Currently in development, the title is being created by Gearbox Software, who developed the first title (above). Like the previous title, the game is slated for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

    "Combining invention and evolution, Borderlands 2 features all-new characters, skills, environments, enemies, weapons and equipment, which come together in an ambitiously crafted story," said publisher 2K Games in an official statement. "Players will reveal secrets, and escalate mysteries of the Borderlands universe as they adventure across the unexplored new areas of Pandora."

    Borderlands 2 is scheduled to be released between April 2012 and spring 2013. More information about the game can be found in the latest issue of Game Informer
    wish it was sooner, but still, FUCKYEAH

    New characters? Hope they bring back the old 4 as well, I put in countless hours playing the first one, such an awesome game.

    More confirmation: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/20...nfirmed-source

    Borderlands 2 is in development at Gearbox Software, Eurogamer understands.

    We've heard an announcement from publisher 2K Games will be made soon.

    A source close to the game told Eurogamer the Gearbox-developed shooter will release on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next year.

    Borderlands 2 has been rumoured for months now. In April Borderlands 2 was spotted on a game developer's online CV – sparking speculation that the sequel will be announced at E3 in June.

    Following that revelation, Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford told Eurogamer the Duke Nukem Forever developer had every intention of revisiting the Borderlands franchise at some point in the future.

    "I can tell you that myself and everyone at Gearbox LOVES Borderlands and we have been absolutely thrilled at the reception it's gotten from our customers and the fact that it's sold over four million units now," he said.

    "So you can see that we supported the game like mad with lots of great DLC and you can imagine that we're going to want to do a lot of things with Borderlands in the future.

    "But we've only announced what we've announced. If we haven't announced it, it doesn't exist.

    "Plans and efforts towards the future always exist with a forward looking studio like Gearbox, of course," he continued, "but brainstorming and blue sky research and development should never be allowed to be construed into a customer promise.

    "A customer promise should not be made until that promise becomes sufficiently clear and ready and the commitment is there to deliver upon the promise."

    The 2009 co-op fuelled shooter was a hit with critics and gamers, and publisher 2K Games has described a sequel as "a no-brainer". Eurogamer's Borderlands review looted an 8/10.

    2K had not responded to Eurogamer at the time of publication.
    Definitely looking forward to this, even now Borderlands is still occasionally addictive.

    Wasn't the early name Borderworlds? I think the plan was to leave Pandora for this one.

    Just picked up/beat this game a few weeks ago (because my brother had it).

    And yes, I am ready for a second, and Mirror Vrumpt's statement.

    Looking forward to this, played this game on all 3 platforms, hopefully the second will have a much better story, the ending was terrible.

    hope they do something so there are less hacked weapons online. machine gun rocket launcher pretty much froze my 360 when someone started using that

    Happy to hear this, grabbed the PS+ sale version a few weeks back, and I've largely enjoyed it.
    The RPG system helps compensate for the fact that I suck at FPS.

    Your Title matches your Avatar a little. I thought it was funny.

    I'm curious how Firefall will compare to this, the two could end up being alike. Though it's always possible the similarities may end at graphics/fps basics.

    Really looking forward to this, the first one was one of the best coop experiences. All they need to do is tweak elemental damage, make most orange weapons actually better than purples, and fix hacked weapons and the game will be perfect.

    I'm just hoping for scenery that isn't 100% non-stop heaps of scrap metal and dust.

    I was really expecting them to visit another planet in the Borderlands universe too, kinda seems like a cop-out to just keep it on Pandora. Don't get me wrong, I loved Borderlands but I they really need to do a better job of adding a story, rather than just the little text bubbles you get when you accept quests.
