Borderlands 2 - Review @ Gamesmaster

The first review of Borderlands 2 is a magazine review with a hefty score of 95%. As it is a magazine there is little to link to, but the guys from Fancensus have a snapshot.
More information.

So this is how modern gaming magazines look like? It has to be one of lowest text/space ratios I've seen recently. Also, too much placeholder graphics, IMHO.

I wonder if single player was beefed up this time? Playing Borderlands 1 alone was OK but not really great.

To the extent that they beefed up the quests (apparently you can actually make choices in one or two and some missions are failable with consequences), locations, and characters I'd say yes. To the extent that it will still be more fun to play with a friend or two… well I imagine that'll still be the case too. Other than that though I think we'll have to wait for meatier reviews and maybe first hand experience from friends or forum members.

Well, I pre-ordered from GMG - and I'm looking forward to it
