I'm of course referring to Borderlands. This game hadn't enticed me until yesterday when I watched a few in game movies of sniper rifles, dual wieldiing maniacs going loose and huge monsters getting the asses whopped by RPG fire - and then of course the most important features today - listen kiddies!
1. No Games For Windows Live!
2. No DRM other then STEAM's system for the STEAM version.

Two good reasons sans the games own features of course. That you can have up to 3 or 4 pals joing in on your game whenever you like to is well... a bonus, an added value...? That I don't think will rock the boat too much. It feels a bit like Sacred 2 - oh yeah and I was how interested in that game? Probably as much as I would be of ice in the antarctics...

Borderland has one feature more that I like - the cartoonish appearance. I like this step and think that it is a good idea since it could mean that the graphics won't look dated too quickly. also, it means you can get away with some graphic absurdities that will look a bit silly when you strive for realism.

also, I wanted to mention that I love the work a guy called WESP - his patch for Vampire The Masquerade - Bloodlines made the Steam version playable. Hopefully it can keep me occupied and see me to the end this time of the vampire saga. Too sad that this is Troika's game. Troika had some brilliant minds - but the department dealing with publishers and time estimations weren't any geniuses...
