Borderlands Launch Trailer is Too Cool Not to Watch Again

Alright, so I know I linked to this yesterday, but I can’t help but feature it again on the site today, because I’ve been looking forward to this game for too damn long.
Even past Mass Effect 3 (currently being butchered by launch day DLC and other such EA nonsense), I’m awaiting the arrival of Borderlands 2. The original game is the best co-op title to hit shelves for consoles in years, and I can’t wait to see just how much the game has evolved.
The trailer features a hell of a lot of dubstep (and subsequent Claptrap dancing), but more importantly introduces us to the major characters and wicked looking guns the new story offers. It’s all rather fantastic, and I hope it lives up to the crazily idealized picture of it that’s now firmly entrenched in my mind.
I really loved the first one and spent hell of a time with it. The second one looks even greater (I prefer the new playable characters), Thanks for sharing the trailer!
I’m really hoping that there’s a compelling story in this one, and a little character development couldn’t hurt either. Those were the only things that I felt the first game was lacking.
I’ve been a huge fan of this game ever since I got it for Xbox shortly after release (and subsequently bought it again on PC for easier co-op). It’s such a refreshing view on the FPS genre, and I was honestly glad to see a game that put more effort into the gameplay and missions instead of making the game look as realistic (read: shades of brown and grey) as possible. The cel-shaded look works awesome for the mood that they set with this game.
This and Guild Wars are what I’m really looking forward. Halo’s my series but I’m worn out by it.
hate to be all nitpicky, but…
S’not dubstep. Just really dirty house.
The more you know, right?
Anton’s right, this actually almost sounded like music; can’t be considered DUBSTEP.
Is it me or does Axton look like a roided up Seth Green?
