Borderlands 2

Things are about to get badass...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Borderlands is a first-person shoot 'em up multi-player game. 

It's full of endless enemies and phat loots -- perfect for endless hours of gameplay with your friends!

The main enemy here is Handsome Jack - the tyrant of hyperion.

He makes it his mission to open up the vault -- a treasure cache seemed to hold unbridled power and wealth.

To ensure the treasure as his own, he makes an effort to destroy any particular threats. This is where the main classes of the game come into play.

The game features 4 character classes each with completely different special abilities and talents at level 5.

Maya - The Siren: The mage class of the group. Her special move raises enemies into a sphere where they float helplessly in the air taking constant damage.

Zero - The Assassin: Can either be close quarters, or a mile away. Zero can replicate himself as a clone in order to sneak away, or get behind a target and do some serious damage.

Axton - The Commando: A tech-loving commander who focuses more on using automatic assault weaponry. Axton's special ability allows him to throw down a turret that targets and annihilates enemies. 

(probably my favorite c:  )

Salvador - The Gunzerker: Salvador walks into the room dual wielding guns practically invincible if played correctly. His special ability is what allows him to dual wield weapons, but he also regenerates health and somehow ammunition as well -- all while taking reduced damage of course.

With the seemingly endless upgrades and levels, the game can lasts as long as you make it!

I strongly suggest playing the game among friends, as any other game is more fun with more people.

Happy gaming! And be sure to avoid claptrap....
