GotG Round 1: BioShock Infinite vs. Borderlands

Holy fuck, you motherfuckers. Now here's a choice. This shit is going to be like choosing one of your own children, isn't it? And it's only gunna get worse!

Now, that really should have been borderlands 2 up there. So, I'll go for Infinate.

While Infinite has some pretty large flaws, Borderlands is a bad Serious Sam clone. I really tried with Borderlands, started the game three times, but I just can never see the point to the game. I guess I just don't like loot games.

I would say more care went into the creation of Bioshock: Infinite and that it had a more lasting effect on me than Borderlands. Both are fine games in their own right.

I don't even know why I voted, I don't like either of these games.

Infinite is a great game, but I didn't want more than one game from a franchise in the bracket, so I voted for Borderlands, which I never played. For those saying Infinite is different enough from the original are CRAZY. The combat is the same, the story is similar in tone and they have the same title and creator.

If the first Bioshock wins over Borderlands I would be happy voting Borderlands on this. If not I'd have to go for Infinite. Borderlands was a great concept but man it was hella boring towards the end, and that end boss fight, woof!

Borderlands has a better story.

I would take almost anything over Borderlands, that game was so boring.

These games are both excellent, but for different reasons. Personally, I'll take the simply unforgettable world, narrative, and experience of BioShock Infinite over the better shooting and insane amounts of loot in Borderlands. Which is unusual, because I think in a lot of situations I've voted for mechanics over narrative. But Infinite is something else.

Infinite. Borderlands was pretty barren, I got so bored with it, I can't remember if there was a story at all.

If it was Borderlands vs Bioshock 1, I'd have to go with Bioshock. However, I don't think that Infinite is a more important game than Borderlands.

I played Borderlands 1 two and half times. I even prefer it to the second one. The Bioshock games just don't do it for me.

BioShock for me. Borderlands was a great idea but it never grabbed me.

Both terrible games...

If it was Bioshock vs Borderlands, I would say Bioshock. Since it's Borderlands vs Infinite, I think I have to go with Borderlands. I just have so many awesome memories of playing Borderlands, leveling up my Siren, and teaming with my husband that I can't just ignore all the good stuff it did, even if it was a little rough around the edges. Infinite had a great story and fun gameplay, but it merely iterated on what had come before in Bioshock, and I feel like Borderlands really innovated, even if it wasn't 100% successful.

Borderlands, no contest. BioShock Infinite isn't even the best BioShock game, but even then I'd say I have so much more fondness associated with Borderlands overall than I do any of the BioShocks.

Bioshock Infinite, to me, is WAY better than the first game. Very good.

Bioshock Infinite. Borderlands always felt super boring and empty to me, even with co-op partners.

Bioshock Infinite is a pretty great game, but Borderlands is a lot more bang for your buck and a fantastic experience to boot. I care more about a fourth of the characters in Borderlands than all of the characters in Bioshock Infinite.

Am I just crazy or was Borderlands only 40 bucks when it came out? Because you should also take that into account if it's true.

I've played both and both are pretty fantastic, but Bioshock Infinite is on another level.

And again, why is Bioshock AND Bioshock infinite both in the running when you said no two games from the same series? Not that it matters cause I still had way more fun with Borderlands and I am voting for it despite knowing it has no chance.

If this was Bioshock vs Borderlands Id be ok with the voting so far. But its not and you are all terrible people.

Easy: Borderlands.

Though I don't see why it's Borderlands 1 vs BioShock Infinite and not the original BioShock. Borderlands 2 should be in this pairing which would make it even more obvious. Infinite was a big letdown for me on many levels.

Infinite.

Borderlands is a piece of shit with one of the worst loot systems in any game (not as bad as diablo 3 though)

I wish I would have played Infinite so I can participate in this. Absolutely loved everything about Borderlands though. But since I haven't played both I'm not going to vote.

Why is Borderlands in instead of Borderlands 2? I beat both, but Borderlands 2 is the only one I beat over 7 time across several characters and difficulties including the DLC. Gotta go with Infinite.

While I love the Bioshock games quite a bit I have to give the nod to Borderlands here. I spent well over 60 hours in total with the first Borderlands and I enjoyed the majority of it. Even though I played most of it solo.

BioShock Infinite pushes aside the competition with 65% of the vote and 729 votes cast.
