Just got an email inviting me to make the short drive to Plano to join a Gearbox Software playtesting session next week. Of course the sessions are in the middle of the week, in the middle of the day. No problem, I sent in my notice to my boss that I'd be taking a half day the moment I saw the email.
God, I hope we get to play Borderlands. Even if it's something totally crappy, just spending the afternoon at a game development house will be awesome.
Have any of you gotten the chance to do this before with a dev house?
OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE
I was talking to them about it and they decided I can't do it cause I "work" for Dtoid. But they did say how the majority of the public testings will be for Borderlands...probably cause they realize majority of people would want to play Aliens.
Good luck buddy.
It was awesome. They had a dev stand behind you while you played and took note of all your reactions, when you made them and why.
Enjoy the playtest man. :)
