@praxus07 - considering there is no official release date and ppl are generally saying Borderlands 2 could release sometime in 2013...4-5 years from now for a $20 price drop could very well be around the time it happens.

I understand where you're coming from though, there's plenty of games that I want to play but don't need to play day one. Especially after seeing how the price game is lately I wait for a lot of games to drop in price as well. I still haven't bought Starcraft 2 WoL...but I will when I'm finally done playing Diablo 3.

A rare day-one for me, I just hope the ending isn't as ludicrously unsatisfying as the first one.

...someone said it right before, Borderlands is about the journey not the destination. I'm not crazy about a lot of great games I've beaten, but I enjoyed the heck out of the gameplay up to that point.

also looking at the teaser video, it looks like there are "characters" with a story vs. a character you can create. i.e. there doesn't seem like there will be an option to choose fe/male etc.

Hopefully the Claptrap figure NECA announced back in October 2010 will be out by the time Borderlands 2 releases.

Lots more screenshots of a whole bunch of enemies and what looks like another class, the Siren.

Wow! Looking great, and I am liking the new Siren.

According a Gearbox dev on their forums, the new Siren's name is Maya and she will have a different special ability than Lilith's phasewalking.

Man those look gorgeous and so awesome.

Cannot wait for Borderlands 2. First one is one of my favorite games I have ever played.

I seriously can't wait for Borderlands 2, played a bloody load of the first one with my buddies

Some good info about the game and interviews with Gearbox. The Gunzerker didn't sound too appealing to me at first but they revealed a couple of his skills and he sounds more appealing now.

Divergent Likeness - If you’re dual-wielding two weapons of the same type, you’ll deal bonus damage. Dual-wield weapons of differing types, and your accuracy goes up. Down, Not Out - In the first Borderlands, no action ability was able to be used when you were on the brink of death. If you have this bonus activated in Salvador’s skill tree, however, he can dual-wield in his final moments. Overheat - No matter what gun you’re using, its rate of fire will continue to increase as long as you hold down the trigger.

Down, Not Out sounds fantastic! I hope they have something like that for each of the classes! There were so many times that I was downed and the Action Skill would've been a huge help to me.

Overheat sounds good too. I am so stoked for this game.

Overheat sounds awesome in close quarters, I'd imagine the recoil and accuracy goes out the door once your finger melts and fuses to the trigger.

Overheat, eh?

He's throwing the gun itself. You get a more powerful explosion based on how much ammo is still in the clip. Then you get a magical New-U copy of the same gun back. That's only for Tediore guns though.

ah, thanks for the clarification. I'm at work and this computer doesn't have speakers.

sweeeeeet
