The link to the vid is broken. Kept getting 404's.

XD Yay. I was wonderin' when Yahtzee would do this.

I agree, Borderlands is meh alone, but it gets better in co-op.

I just happen to hold a better opinion of it.

EDIT: It's probably already been mentioned, but you can compare weapons on the ground without opening the menu. The little arrows next to the damages, ROF, etc. tell you, do they not?

 

[wooville]

lol- I was hoping this would come soon

 

[Domitianus]

first

Somebody is getting a ban...

 

[Warachia]

I figured he wouldn't really like the four player co-op, too bad people will whine about it anyway, looking forward to the extra punctaution.

 

[MasterOfHisOwnDomain]

I loved the nagging about distance and internet connection, those things wind me up no end.

 

[The Cheezy One]

haha
yeah i played it one player, and it did seam a bit plain

 

[Lost In The Void]

Greeat Episode, I was hoping you would tear this game a new one. I am looking forward to your Mass Effect 2 Review, because I actually care about that game and want to see your take on it.

I figured he wouldn't really like the four player co-op, too bad people will whine about it anyway, looking forward too the extra punctaution.

 

[The Great JT]

I sense another Mailbag Showdown.

 

[Tharticus]

Yesh, I never expected Mr. Croshaw to be pissed when his fans bother him to review Borderlands.

But eventually, somebody is going to bother him to review FF XIII. Oh hilarity ensures Mr. Croshaw.

Man. I think we should stop telling Yahtzee to do reviews of certain games. I was surprised he didn't get a heart attack half way through the review. Never played this game, though I had interest in trying it. I don't multiplayer that much, so might give it a try.

 

[Jory]

They did seem to be pretty minor complaints. But for someone who hates the MMORPG grindy set up it's hardly surprising he hated it

 

[BlueInkAlchemist]

If you do manage to shut those whiny stupid tossers up, please don't hoard your secret. Being able to nailgun metal plates over the faces of retarded fanboys aching to hear what is sure to be glowing praise for a shitty game is an ability critics the world over have been dreaming of since the first cave drawing was pissed on by someone who thought the antelopes were not colored properly.

 

[Hobo Joe]

Very funny video; while I agree with all the complaints he made they never stopped Borderlands from being fun for me.

 

[GameGoddess101]

I'm going to have to agree with Yahtzee here and just say that games that require four-player co-op for the "good stuff" is just lazy game design. Remember those days when you bought a game and the single player campaign had to stand up on it's own? Yeah, what the fuck happened to this!?!

Anyway, this was hysterical Yahtzee. Keep up the good work.

 

[HauntedQuiche]

I think thats his angriest review in quite a while.
