not shocked. borderlands 2 3rd highest pre-order numbers for Take-Two behind GTA:4 and GTA:SA

Posted by tRuMaN (hello?) (aka Truman) Aug 1 '12, 08:51

take-two is company "releasing" the game via an agreement with Gearbox.

i doubt borderlands 2 will rake in $500mil in its first week like GTA:4 did, but still.

Borderlands!

Responses:

I don't pre-order any games. I will be there to pick it up on the release day. - Krusty Aug 1, 08:55 28
- i like the extra goodies. -- nm - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 08:59 16
  - All those extras aren't worth it and should be given to everyone that pays for the game. - Krusty Aug 1, 09:02 15
    - for borderlands I mostly agree. everyone who has a borderland 1 game save should get the vault hunters stuff. the other freebie is a DLC - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 09:05 6
      - the Amazon deal gives you $10 bucks back plus a Golden Key, a Vault Hunter's Relic, Gearbox Gunpack, and new Mechromancer class -- nm - decline Aug 1, 09:06 5
        
        yeah, that $10 is nice too.. -- nm - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 09:07
        
        I will never order a game through the mail again. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:07 3
        
        i feel the same way about gamestop - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 09:08
        
        heh. it's the only way I buy them -- nm - decline Aug 1, 09:07 1
        
        I do not like logging on to see all my friends playing it, and mine is in limbo somewhere. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:08
    - you can pre-order it a day before release and get the stuff -- nm - decline Aug 1, 09:04 1
      - I won't contribute to the practice and so even for one day I won't do it. It needs to end. - Krusty Aug 1, 09:08
    - then don't complain about my sweet armor setup! nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:04 5
      - Oh, I'll bitch. - Krusty Aug 1, 09:05 4
        
        I do like how you apologize for running into cars on the track..... - Will Hunting Aug 1, 09:07 2
        
        Heh. :-) Would have sucked to lose the race in the last two corners. - Krusty Aug 1, 09:11
        
        if i hadnt messed up that last corner, you would have never caught me though. -- nm - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 09:09
        
        WE KNOW,. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:05
- I'm gonna pre- order Halo 4. I'm just looking for the best deal. -- nm - Mop on Galaxy SIII Aug 1, 08:58 8
  - I already did Halo 4, Borderlands 2 and Black Ops 2. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 08:58 7
    - I might not play any of these games -- nm - Beryllium Aug 1, 09:04 1
      - no B.O.2?????? NM -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:04
    - I am waiting on reviews of Borderlands 2 to see how much of it is busy work. -- nm - Other David Aug 1, 09:02 4
      - Fetch your own damn robot parts! -- nm - Reagen Aug 1, 09:05 2
        
        hopefully they learned from that and the brains quests. -- nm - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 09:07
        
        Collect 50,000 brains? - groiny Aug 1, 09:06
      - It got glowing reviews from the game convention goers. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 09:03
- The extras sometimes make it worth it though -- nm - decline Aug 1, 08:56
- I want the extra goodies. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 08:55
Those developers must be so happy. I dont think anyone from Gearbox ever expected Borderlands to be such a smash hit. -- nm - Jovian Aug 1, 08:54 3
- yeah, Pitchford (the ceo) was surprised by the success of the first game, he has also noted that it was a word of mouth driven game for sales - tRuMaN (hello?) Aug 1, 08:58 2
  - I was interested from the videos I watched but you are the reason I bought the game. :-) - Krusty Aug 1, 09:04
  - yeah, I never heard of it before ST started talking about it. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 1, 08:59
