    well it's an RPG, and for an RPG I don't think it looks that bad.

    It seems like a good kind of messy to me, the kind that doens't obstruct your view to much but still keeps things interesting.

    If I had to make a prediction, I bet this and Dragon Age are going to be the biggest disappointments of 2009.

    What makes you say that?
     
    Although the shooting looks better, but now the guns sound a little flimsy.

    Personally I see Dragon Age falling a little flat on its face because of a cliched storyline and generic abilities. Borderlands, on the other hand, seems like it'll be a fun, light RPG/Shooter. I never expected something revolutionary, so maybe that's why I don't think it will be a huge disappointment, but I doubt it will be awful or anything near to it.

    Believe me with a game like Dragon age alot of it doesn't lie in the story line, it's mainly in the gameplay, i thought the story line to Icewind dale 2 was pretty bad, but I love the pause and play combat. The generic abilities are what's calling my name.
     
    Also does anyone know Dragon age is based on any kind of rule set?

    I don't believe it is based on any ruleset, no.

    Still not sold on this game, weapon firing seems lackluster.

    I bet there is some way to turn parts of the hud off, or all of it.

    im loving this game, the cinematic trailer was awesome and i cant wait to get it, im considering buying a new PC just for it, but that trailer smells of dissapointment to me. i feared that it might be just running in circles pumping shellls into your enemeis fell over, which that trailer was. howvever, really what else can it be, and there were some bits where guys were downed in three shots, which is what i was hoping for. afterall, its an RPG, so all in all, still sold. the vehicular combat from that looks shocking though, hopeuflly it was just in a bad light

    Just another trailer proving this game will be sex on a stick.
