The *Official* I'm Pumped For Borderlands 2 Thread AKA Here's My Wallet, Randy!

Yeah, I know...it's that time again!

Check out why BL2 on PC will be better than any of that silly console stuff:

Oh man, that letter is hilarious! It feels good to know that Gearbox is putting so much effort into the PC version of the game. Haven't been so stoked for a game ever.

This makes Battlefield 3 look like the Hello Kitty MMO!

You can Anti-Alias me any day baby. Multi sample, Super sample, even rub me down in an anisotropic filter for a long distance relationship. My DOF has a FOV wide enough for the both of us. I am still the tease too, you can caress my menus all day with a touchscreen, but you can't play... not just yet.

Why did I write that... uhhhh... I feel all dirty now.

 

[Optix]

Does Claptrap have your digits? I'm sure he'd be interested.

 

[Tharic-Nar]

I don't know, but I'll need to format my skin and defrag my hardware in preparation. Better get a scan too, don't know what I'm carrying anymore, could be viral.

PC pre-orders now available!

[Optix]

Looks like I'll be ordering through Game Stop/EB Games - $59.99 Canadian vs. 59.99 US on Steam. Plus there's no mention of the Creature Slaughter Dome bonus when you order through Steam.

I can't wait to fire up a soldier and then a mechromancer when it launches. This will be the first game that I haven't gone sniper right out of the gate in a very long time.

 

[Rob Williams]

I do believe that the Slaughter Dome might be unique to GameStop, given it claims that. Normally, Steam will have it sown form of bonus, so it's a bit strange that it doesn't, given that the game uses Steamworks. I'm just glad this will be all available as DLC, because I don't want to miss out on one inch of this game.

 

[Optix]

I guess the price isn't so bad considering our dollar is worth a little bit more than the US dollar, but I still like the idea of getting everything all at once (slaughter dome, etc).

 

[Optix]

Yeah, bishes!

 

[Rob Williams]

Did you egg my old place on the way by?

 

[Optix]

No but I still look for the double fans in the window for some reason.

Oh Rob...our love...it can never be!

 

[Tharic-Nar]

Borderlands 2 is the third highest pre-order for Take-Two, only behind GTA series.

[Rob Williams]

That's amazing. I sure hope this is one series with a long life ahead of it.

 

[Kayden]

I am going to get this next month, still in time for the pre-order but damn am I cutting it close.

 

[Optix]

Oh good lord...how did I miss this?

Oh good lord...how did I miss this?

Because it was for the console and you got it for the PC?

 

[Optix]

Con...sole? What means this...console?

 

[Optix]

Come and get me!
