About Borderlands:

Borderlands is an original role-playing shooter from 2K Games and
Gearbox Software that combines the intuitive reward systems of action
role-playing games and the frantic-paced combat of first-person
shooters. The game features a groundbreaking content generation
system allowing for a near-endless variety of weapons and item drops.
Borderlands allows up to four players to share the same game
experience simultaneously online in co-op gameplay. Players can
freely join or leave each other's games at any time, or choose to
play in the full single-player mode. These features, along with a
rich and deep fiction that touches upon the mysteries buried beneath
the surface of a danger-filled planet, combine to form a breakthrough
experience that challenges the conventions of modern shooters. For
