I'm liking Borderlands a lot so far. I don't really think it's like Diablo, it's a hybrid shooter game. Same premise as Fallout, hardly any story that I can make out (go here, talk to so and so, kill such and such, level up). Very addicting though, i've already grinded my way up to level 23 and i've only had it a few days. I'm playing as Brick, I like going nuts and punching the crap out of people

I'm level 21 hunter and just drove into New Haven. I heard that there is a level 50 cap, but I don't know how much of the game is left. One of the missions has a glitch in it-the revolver parts-I found all but one. I go to where the waypoint is and I have stood right on the spot but there is nothing there.

I got that revolver. The last piece is in the burnt out car in front of the place the marker is. Drove me nuts too.

Very similar to Fallout and just as addictive. No plot, but lots of funny lines.

I guess it is Diablo esque, just the whole first person view throws me off. When you get it hit me up on live

There are a few times where I wish it was 3rd person... would actually be pretty fun to play it that way (everything is over-the-shoulder except when you zoom in).

Maybe. I like it how it is though, i've got two campaigns running and it's actually pretty impressive how different they play out between characters.
