So I assume a lot have heard about this new fps/rpg Borderlands. The thing is I cant decide if its a good game or a bad game with good concept. Tell me forum...is Borderlands Fail or Win?

Fail-Win is far to binary to be a good poll.

Your poll sucks and i refuse to use it until there are better options.

OT: it is both, it fails at being a single player game with story. But it is so far beyond win in the multi-player shoot'em'up area that it more than makes up for it. In other words, i'm happy i shelled out for it.

Fail and Win are not acceptable. Yes and No are even more open minded than Fail and Win.

I'mma gonna say Win, seeing as that it's the closest this poll has to Yes, with certain faults.

It's Win in Co-op, slightly less win in single player.
So yes in co-op, yes in Single Player, basically.

It's win unless its MP on the compy. Then it fails. Miserably.

I wish there were closed servers hosted by Gearbox or 2K. Now, there's all kind of save editing to get supergunz, and all the P2P hosting issues (which you have to open ports for). :(

Win for the win. I have been playing Sp and it is addictive as hell. I have better games sitting there collecting dust (like DA:O) and I can't pull myself away from it. The DLC makes it an epic win.

It's all so much win. Even on single player, but multi-player local has slightly more win.

It is such epic win. I bought it with gift cards, not expecting much, but I was absolutely blown away.

WIN still playing. Bought it the day it came out and still going back to it, more than I can say for MW2, which sits on my shelf with only a disappointed stare occasionlly gracing it.

Agreed...the poll is unnecessary, BUT I was looking for more or less a discussion on whether to buy the game rather than keep renting it

It's a burst of good fun. Single player is alright, but it's obvious the game is intended for multiple people. Since you didn't specify console or pc, I can't add to the pros "split screen". I think it's win...though I hate that term.

Gee it's either really good to a failure. I mean from the just the bit I played in a store it was quite fun. But not like Best game ever type stuff

If you take it by story, it's fail. The main story was utterly horrible.
The DLC, however (which I just finished) was a complete success. It was hilarious, and I fully enjoyed my time in it.

If you take it by gameplay, it's a win. FPS mixed with the random loot makes it a game I can continue to play long past the point that I've finished any quests, unlike Fallout 3. I am always on the search for an even more better gun to allow me to deal out death with.(Oh, and the money. I surpassed across-the-board-9's a good while ago. I am continuously amazed by how much money I have, though. I can buy ANYTHING and the game will still not show any loss of funds from me. Hell, I've spent 11 mil in one sitting before and still saw no change. Perhaps my old MMO philosophy on loot has payed off a bit too well, neh?)

Your poll sucks and i refuse to use it until there are better options.

OT: it is both, it fails at being a single player game with story. But it is so far beyond win in the multi-player shoot'em'up area that it more than makes up for it. In other words, i'm happy i shelled out for it.
Agreed...the poll is unnecessary, BUT I was looking for more or less a discussion on whether to buy the game rather than keep renting it
Well then, as i said, i am happy to have shelled out for it.
