    i made a search for this game in forum but ;

    Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

    Game will be out tonight. middle night i guess. played the beta on both pc and Xbox one. i go for pc this time. looks good. plays fine. but too much thngs r going on screen and visuals r too cartoonish. not my typical liking. but there is not much to play anyway. Doom coming. yeah.

    Yet this game may be good for time to time gaming sessions.

    From what I've read, the game doesn't have much in the way of depth.
    The campaign is pretty short, and the humor can wear thin, specially if you're not into that type of comedy.

    Seems the "best" thing of the game is the amount of characters the player can choose from. But, even then, I've read that some characters are obviously not worth playing as.

    Nothing about this one has caught my interest. Think I would rather Gearbox put this energy into a new Brothers in Arms title instead.

    By the way Battle-born looks like is out.

    I played the Beta and i was done with the game after 2/3 hours never had that before so im not buying it.

    Hoping Borderlands 3 will be better looking, but not looking like this and probally wil buy it, hoping it won't become just a borderland 2.5 they need to make it look better, yet keep their orginal gfx style which will be tricky and offcourse plenty of content, funny, innovating and so on

    I really disliked Borderlands (or any game that involves shooting something in the head with ten thousand rounds watching health pips go down), I doubt this will be any different.

    Looks meh, but even if it didn’t, I wouldn’t give my money to Gearbox (and especially to Randy Pitchford) under any circumstances.

    You guys do realize that Randy is not involved with the actual development of the games these days, right?

    He's a public figure head. He's the face they parade around at conventions to talk up and advertise the game.
    And, yeah, somebody should really remove his ability to post on Twitter. He just drags the whole company down with his crap.


    But yeah, Battleborn looks... just... awful.
    First GBX game in forever I've had no interest in even trying.

    This looks so boring in the gameplay videos I've seen. Just cannot pluck up any enthusiasm for it but it's not really my cup of tea anyway. I am wary of Gearbox as a developer after the travesty that was Aliens: Colonial Marines; really can't forgive them for messing up such an iconic franchise.

    Still, with Uncharted 4 Tuesday and Doom (PC) next Friday, I really would not have the time for it anyway.

    Seemed more like they wanted to hop on the cartoon-ish tf2 style shooter cash cow.

    Kinda weird how with Overwatch suddenly a new small trend starts.

    Personally, Overwatch and Battleborn fall in the same area for me. Completely forgettable. Bland. And just flat out meh.

    Battleborn and paragon are really dull boring and grinding for nothing, borderlands is miles above those two.

    I played it a lot on the testers weekend and its really really meh. Its basically the same principle as every moba with just elements of League's rune system sprinkled on it.

    Just really really average and forgettable.

    Have tried it.
    Tried both. And... found both, Overwatch and Battleborn completely forgettable.
    Sorry, but neither of these will stand the test of time.

    I agree with battleborn and paragon too I doubt we will see either last the year but battleborn will be around a long time and not only because blizzard have money to throw at it, it's a very addictive game with a lot more depth that it first looks.
