No worries, anytime.

I can see where you're coming from (perfect example is the GTA games) but one week? Come on.

Blizzard and Valve will also disagree with you re: PC gaming dying.

Question

I can't understand why this title seems to be flying under the radar. Thus far, all information on the game looks sweet!

Probably because it's not going to push our hardware.

Maybe... look passed hardware guys! This looks to be a promising game. Remember when games used to be fun, regardless of whether they pushed the limits of technology?

Nope, because they have always pushed the limits of technology as far as I can see. But I agree, as I am playing Gothic 2 at the moment. It looks like ass, but its much more enjoyable than the prettier Gothic 3.

Australia has refused classification for Borderlands.

Same problem with LFD2

That explains it Adarti

Didn't know the Australian Government had started to endorse piracy.

Gearbox: Borderlands on PC will be superior to 360, PS3 versions

Gamers will be able to export item cards as .jpeg files. That may not sound like much, but when you consider that the game will feature millions upon millions of randomised firearms, these weapon info cards may be the only way to convince your friends you got a derringer that shoots beavers.

Other PC-only features will be timedemo benchmark software, and proper mouse support (which isn't always a given, in these dark days of haphazard console ports).

Will definitely be keeping an eye on this game
