New Borderlands Interview With Randy Pitchford. Also, Amazon Gold Box Sale Tomorrow!
VWGTI | 8:59 AM on 08.27.2009 12 comments


I'm pretty excited about Borderlands and each time I hear Randy Pitchford talk about the game my excitement reaches new heights. In his latest interview at Gamescom he talks about the drop-in and out feature in co-op, dueling your friends, and how the game scales depending on the number of players and the players levels. He also talks briefly about single-player. Very awesome stuff.



Also, for those unaware, Amazon will will have a video games Gold Box sale starting tomorrow. Here are the details:

* At 12:01 AM PST the first deal will be the Gold Box Deal of the Day. Its special discounted price will be available all day only on Friday, August 28 (or until we run out.)
* Starting at 6:00 AM PST, the second deal will be featured as a Lightning Deal.
* Each of the remaining deals will also be Lightning Deals.
* Discounts on each deal will be available only while supplies last.

I'm interested in seeing if there will be anything worth buying.

I just learned about the dueling the other day. Not sure how I had missed those details before. Sounds fantastic. I seriously cannot wait for this one.

HOLY SHIT! This is gonna be even better than I had expected! And I was already really looking forward to it. Damn! That duel-mode is gonna be awesome.

Thanks for sharing this Jon! Shits gonna be on in October!

I just pre-ordered Borderlands...figured I might as well do it now in case they do some sort of bonus for it. The more I see of the game, the more it excites me.

Also...I kinda hope Amazon doesn't put up anything worthwhile. The past few weeks have been a buy-a-poolaza in the game department. I need a break. Ah, crap. Muramasa comes out next week...and then Scribblenauts. Dammit.

lol @ zombiekiller13's frustration. I feel you, man. So many games to buy.

@ Takeshi

I'm glad you guys are getting the game only three days after the US. FNF + Borderlands = HEAD EXPLODES FROM AWESOME

I'm getting more excited for Borderlands with each new tidbit of information that I see. Lookin' good.
kami's Destructoid Blog
Yes! I can't wait! Definitely my most anticipated game of this year. Takeshi, we are definitely rocking this! Finally we can fight together rather than destroying each other in CoD4.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
Only 3 days later!

Man, PSN cards are coming for us and games are getting more or less the same release dates. Is Europe finally getting the full attention it so deserves?
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
OK, I'll stop screaming but it keeps getting better and better. The game is gonna be only 50 Euro's instead of 60 to 65 for me. If I pre-order it now that is.

Done!

An Ode To Wiisucks:

Hi! My name is Jack Klassen.! I'm a completely ordinary teenage boy from San Diego, California. My interests include soccer, surfing, writing poetry, and luge. I am homeschooled by my father who fought in the Korean War and was exposed to nerve gas. He is kind of crazy but I still love him. We got the Internet two years ago and I started making new friends on Yahoo! messenger. Surprisingly, most of these new friends were older men who wanted to have illegal, underage sex with me. Needless to say, I got a boner like a rocketship and cybersex quickly became my favorite thing in the entire world. Wait, did I say boner like a rocketship? I meant my vagina got as wet as Lake Titicaca. I started saving all of the hot chat sessions I was having with the Pakistanis, lesbians, child molesters and other monsters who were instant messaging me all day and all night, and I decided to put them up here on this website so you can see exactly how disgusting the entire human race is. Since then, I have been in a waterskiing accident that mangled my genitals beyond repair, been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, brain cancer, and Crohn's disease, learned to speak Urdu and French, covered my naked body in superglue, went to French lesbian camp, made a Hindu eat a roast beef sandwich out of my vagina, and ruined perfectly good cybersex for at least one hundred people.
