Have you actually played it?

Also JrK you could've had better mousing in Borderlands 1 as well, you just needed the fan-made "Borderlands config tool" or whatever it was called. Let you adjust FOV (Since added to BL2), fine tune the graphics (Mostly added to BL2), and disable the horrible mouse smoothing (Seemingly not even in BL2 or disabled by default). Only thing that program did that BL2 didn't was let me disable the black outlines. Could probably disable that if I wanted to dig around in ini files but I've been too lazy to do so since it's mostly just a minor taste issue for me. I thought the original looked a bit better and cleaner without 'em.
yes, when it was out, but the only memorable thing about it is that i vaguely recall it being too scripted for my taste.Have you actually played it?
Good thing I checked The Codex before getting this game. This will save me a lot of time and money.level scaled damage

in fact, now that i think about it, wasn't half-life the game that started the whole cinematic shooter bullshit?
i'm not saying it's bad, but i do think it is directly responsible for the trend to more and more scripted in-game events, much like diablo wasn't a bad action-rpg, but caused a lot of decline in the genre.
Oops.The UK artist Olly Moss – most well-known in video game circles for his haunting box art and promo campaign paintings for Resistance 3 – has admitted he’s somewhat taken aback by similarities in the artwork for Borderlands 2 with one of his most well-known pieces of art.
This is the image, as first brought to Moss’ attention by Twitter user Miles Joliffe:
Moss reacted by tweeting “I’m a huge Gearbox fan so I was really disappointed to see this image inside the Borderlands 2 box.”
The reason he’s disappointed becomes clearer when you head over to this page on Moss’ site which shows his original artwork based on The Empire Strikes Back.
Initially Moss was “Not angry, just disappointed. One of my favourite developers. Would have jumped at the opportunity to work with them. Oh well.” and in further tweets noted his surprise and that it “just feels weird coming from such a great dev.”
However Moss then pointed out that “they actually lifted elements straight out of my thing, which I hadn’t noticed…” and posted the following image for comparison:
Moss’ biggest frustration at the rather blatant “homage” to his original work was that “if they’d called I would have just made them something new.”
Except the clouds are pretty much copy pasted. Looks like he forgot to remove a layer or something cause it doesn't even add to the composition.Eh, it's vaguely similar. Pretty sure I've seen that style of foreground/borderline/shadow imaging before in many many pieces of art, commercial or otherwise.
Blasted the dust out of my machine, it was a horror show. Didn't make a MASSIVE difference, but my half-assed testing before cleaning the case out showed the CPU getting up to 80C and my half-assed testing after cleaning the case showed 77-78C, so it made a slight difference. As long as it's cool enough that it doesn't turn itself off while I'm playing I'm happy.
The zig-zag line seems ctrl+c'd.Eh, it's vaguely similar. Pretty sure I've seen that style of foreground/borderline/shadow imaging before in many many pieces of art, commercial or otherwise.
I just have to ask opinions before I order anything from there, seems too good to be true.http://www.cdkeyport.com/borderlands-2-cd-key.html

I'm surprised you're still on socket 775 MHC, seeing as you're quite fond of the new shit.
Even though FPS was smooth, I would occasionally get freezes lasting everything between half a second to 3 seconds before the game resumed. After setting physx to low, the problems seems to be resolved. Kind of annoying, I'm going to try medium later, and see if I can play without hiccups.high phsyx

Doesn't Valve go after key-selling sites like that and disable the keys users bought, because usually they are stolen etc.? Just wondering if you could end up with a game that doesn't work in a few weeks.Haven't used it but people are confirming that it works here.
Possible but highly unlikely. Most key sites send you a photo of the box to show that it's linked to a physical product. I'm sure there's a clause somewhere that enables them to remove games for whatever reason but I can't think of a credible instance of games from key sellers being disabled, and Steam is generally quite fair with discretionary matters so it's not something I would worry about. This coming from someone with a Steam account of not insubstantial value.Doesn't Valve go after key-selling sites like that and disable the keys users bought, because usually they are stolen etc.?
