Poll: Mass Effect 2 or Borderlands

[overfiend_87]

Ok, well is borderlands worth £21.97? Because I played it for a while at a friend's house, but I don't know how long it is.

Totally worth it.
I've been sitting for 30+ hours, and no Vault in sight

Vault? I knew it! It is a Fallout rip off!

I'm just yanking your chain I know that the vault on there is meant to keep some kind of treasure, but you have to admit from the glances I have had of this game it does look a lot like a comic style fallout 3.

From what I've played, the shooting aspect is way better, and is about skill more than stats (sorta), whereas fallout is way different.

Yeah, but really Pandora isn't a post apocalyptic wasteland like the Wasteland in Fallout 3.

To be honest, take one look at the gameplay and it's pretty obvious that Borderlands is much more action oriented.

By this point nothing could beat Mass Effect 2. For me, anyways. I mean, all the stuff I've read about it point to it being beyond epic.

And that is when exactly....?

July 13th...

Oh good, I could get borderlands for my birthday and play with you then (my birthday is a few days before yours).

 

[Chipperz]

Borderlands. As much as I love BioWare, Borderlands is better than anything they've ever done, so get that.

Yeah I admit it definantly looks more action orientated, but the area still looked like a wasteland. I'm not bashing the game for looking similar to fallout 3, especially since they have a different story and set up as well as it's meant to be on some kind of alien planet too, but really I don't have that much info. I try not to get hyped on games so most games I go in blind so when I played Rachet & Clank: Tools of destruction (never played the ones before) I loved it, however it meant when I came across the Conan game I was really pissed off.

Vault
Wasteland
Even the money looks like the "Pre-War Money" from Fallout
It's still fun as hell though

yeah I bet it is and it's on my "to buy and play" list next to mass effect and various others, though I have a massive pile of games to play through and trade in. I decided to save spave and traded in loads of games I'll never play again, but I still have some old games like FF7 and FF9.

Borderlands is fun for a week.
I still play Mass Effect.

 

[EgoDeusEst]

Borderlands:
- No fun when you play by yourself.
++ A lot of fun when you play splitscreen with a friend. It's always fun to haggle over weapons with your friend, trying to decide who get's the new awesome-tastic gun you just found.
- Art direction: Enviroments look boring, bland and shitty.
+ Art direction: Characters look cool.
- Story: Shit.
- Replay value: You can have two playthroughs on each character you have. But only two. After that? Who knows what happens to your character.
- DLC: Though the DLC-packs offer a few extra hours to dick around in new areas and new enemies, they don't raise the level cap, which is a problem.
++ SPLITSCREEN! More games need this feature.

mass effect 2 it will be awsome

 

[katsabas]

I do not own a 360, but I am inclined to say Mass Effect 2. It reminds me of Fallout 3(moral choices, shooting) and fuckin love that game. N7!

 

[Kavachi]

When I saw this I immediatly clicked mass effect 2, but I didn't read what you said. Well, the whole mate thing changes it. Mass effect is brilliant, but just fucking around with some mates in borderlands is much fun 2, however you will be depended on them. But it is your choice, and you should get a job.

 

[Dommyboy]

Mass Effect 2 of course! Borderlands becomes a repetitive trudge after a while, while ME2 stays fresh with so many options.

 

[DND Judgement]

borderlands is good but it's not 1 of those games that i keep playing over and over like i have done with mass effect 1...

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

Mass Effect 2, but I do only say that having played Mass Effect 1 and loved it, and nevr played Borderlands.

 

[Outlaw Torn]

Borderlands because it has more guns than Trinity's armpits.

 

[era81]

Well it comes down what do you like in Borderlands there is action in Mass Effect the elevater music. I'm kidding I like ME and they say they fixed that anyway but it sounds like you can buy Borderlands while still finishing ME.

 

[Cpu46]

I haven't played mass effect at all (The first one) but i have played borderlands.

The weapons you get in that game are EPIC!

Gonna start my second playthrough sometime soon

 

[Lemon Of Life]

ME 2 all the way. Borderlands was a pile of unrefined crap. In my opinion, of course.
