   22 Feb 2012 ~ 12:50pm Brian Ambrozy I don't ever pre-order games, but when I do, it's FUCKING BORDERLANDS 2 OMG OMG OMG

   Actually I believe this will be the first game I ever pre-order (for myself. I pre-ordered Ultimate MvC 3 for Perry once).

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 12:56pm CB This trailer makes me feel that the first hing I will be doing when I open Borderlands 2 is muting the music.

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 1:02pm Binh Nguyen If you played the Mad Moxxie DLC, the entire thing was in dub step. It fit right in.

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 1:05pm Nick Mertes My only concern is whether the game uses Steam. If either/both of the preorder versions activates over Steam, then cool. If the game is being offered on Steam but the Amazon or GameStop versions can't be activated on Steam, I'll pass on the pre-order stuff and just get it on Steam.

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 1:34pm DogSoldier Ha! Watching this makes me want to replay Borderlands a third time...

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:03pm ardichoke fuck... now I have to finish playing Borderlands.

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:16pm Nathan Andrews Do the DLC, too (except for Mad Moxxies, that one sucked), it's great stuff.
   
   Edit: Finally got a chance to watch the video. Seriously, just stop talking and take my friggin money already.
   
   Fake Edit: Also loving the wub wub.

   22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:19pm fatcat here's hoping it's $10 by the time Steam's Xmas sale comes around!
   
   $50 the ending becomes the 2nd worst ending ever (2nd to Borderlands ending that is)

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:20pm GotV I liked/hated the amount of guns. Huge selection, but also a huge amount of time in the inventory screen. Now there is an even bigger variety (it looks like there are more than the standard rocket launcher, rifle, pistol, revolver, shotgun, SMG, sniper rifle, alien weapons...ok there were a lot to begin with).

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:24pm midga Here's hoping the PC version will allow for easy 360 controller use.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:31pm primesuspect I'm sure there will be preorder bonuses on Steam too. I'm holding out for that.
13. 
    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:32pm primesuspect Also: DLC is the best ever. Borderlands DLC is the model by which all other DLC should be measured. Each DLC was almost an entirely new game. The Secret Armory of General Knoxx rules.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:32pm Binh Nguyen I am praying for that...

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 2:45pm RahnalH102 I was already sold on this. Now this makes me want to time travel. Can't wait.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 3:26pm Bobby Miller Borderlands 2 AND Guild Wars 2 today?
    
    I can't handle all this trailer. HHNNNNGGGGGG~~~
17. 
    22 Feb 2012 ~ 3:59pm BHHammy I didn't know if I could be even more stoked now than I was when they first released a glimpse of the Gunzerker.
    
    I guess I'm even more hype now than I was before. Somehow. This is my new game to watch out for, this year.
    I am preordering this with the force of 50 comets crashing into a train full of dynamite.
    
    Dunno if STEAM is gonna have exclusive stuff, but if it doesn't beat those other preorder bonuses, then I'll just buy the game at (ugh) Gamestop and activate my key with STEAM.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 4:20pm primesuspect At least get it at Amazon!

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 4:22pm Snarkasm I must be the only person who doesn't understand the Borderlands obsession.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 4:26pm cola K, wasn't excited about this as much as everyone else, then I watched the trailer. Ho mah gahd I'm getting this game.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 8:19pm CannonFodder This trailer is so much win.

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 8:27pm HumerusMeg man... looks great, now I must finish Borderlands...

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 9:11pm Mr TRiot If I pre-order this game it'll be the first one since Ocarina of Time

    22 Feb 2012 ~ 10:32pm Tanner Only game that can pull of dubstep like that.

    23 Feb 2012 ~ 9:03am NLichtman This game looks like it will be worth every cent.

    Do the DLC, too (except for Mad Moxxies, that one sucked), it's great stuff.

    Mad Moxxie's wasn't that bad if you played with friends. Which is how the developers wanted the game to be played anyway I believe.

    23 Feb 2012 ~ 1:01pm AlexDeGruven That's definitely a possibility. I played the whole game, and the other 3 DLC solo and loved every minute of it, but Moxxie's just got on my nerves.

    23 Feb 2012 ~ 1:16pm ardichoke Any friends want to play with me? heh. This is always my problem with games that are meant to be played coop... I can rarely commit to a specific time to play. I just jump on when I have free time, which isn't often.

    23 Feb 2012 ~ 1:23pm Binh Nguyen Mad Moxxie is hella fun when you play it with someone else.

    I can though I think I'll be trying to get through Mass Effect today.

    Add me up on Steam. I need to level my PC-version player hardcore.

    23 Feb 2012 ~ 6:12pm TsumeBones steam add: TsumeBones I usually play from 9-3AM

    Really? Why haven't you gone to BF3?
    
    Also, in for some Borderlands, I've never played it with other people
34. 
    24 Feb 2012 ~ 3:13am Binh Nguyen ^ reason why she hasn't been playing BF3 is because each time she tries to play, it would close on her.
