Any Borderlands fans here? It was announced some time ago but a leaked gameplay video was surfaced and it looks AMAZING. If only for the new colors. 4 new characters are set to explore Pandora 5 years after the events of the first game. Hyperion has a new CEO who is trying to take over Pandora, that's the story thus far So far only two characters have been revealed - Salvador, a gunzerker with the special ability to dual wield any weapon in the game (shotgun and revolver, etc)
- Maya, a Siren with a different, yet to be revealed, power than Lilith
There is a supermega info thread hereAnd the leaked gameplay footage is here

I loved the first one to death and this looks way cooler with the weapons acting differently and the environment interactivity. Can't wait!!!

I was weary of it at first as I'm not a fan of shooters but I'm slowly warming to the genre (I doubt I'll ever play COD or those war games) thanks to Borderlands and Fallout. I really like the new UI. The first one was terrible. I love what I'm seeing so far but what I really want is a more prominent story. I know most people don't pay attention to the story in the game but I do. Hell, thats why I play games!! The original 4 Vault Hunters had a story (Lilith was looking for another Siren, Brick was looking for his sister, etc) but it didn't matter past the character selection screen. I hope they change that in BL2 The people at PAX were lucky. The 900 people who attended their panel got a FREE copy of the gameLucky bastards

So they already finished it or is it a demo of sorts? Or early download before launch when it's done?

Once the game drops they'll get a free download for a system of their choice

That's a cool gesture...if it wasn't for the fact that the game is more than a year away, and that's assuming it doesn't see any delays. However, knowing Gearbox it almost certainly will.

True, it's a year out but a free copy is a free copy

As previously reported all 4 of the original Vault Hunters will return in the sequel. Lilith (and possibly the others) will be live action like Guardian Angel in the original. Rlease date still 2012 Lilith Live Casting

There's one way to boost my interest, put swords in a shooter.

I wonder if there'll b pickups for it or its just his special move.
Now that all 4 classes have been revealed I was kinda hoping that it woulda been all new classes but we have 2 old and 2 new so that ain't all bad

IGN has loads of new details on the new characters. The best news for me is that, while each class may excel at a particular weapon, it's been drastically reduced from BL1. Basically, every class will be able to use all weapon classes effectively. Meet The AssassinMeet The GunzerkerMeet The SirenMeet The CommandoAfter reading the Assassin preview I'm even more excited for Zer0. I dunno, the Commando doesn't interest me. I only played as Roland in BL1 for the trophy, same as Brick; I just stuck with Lilith.
