Steam is running their 50% off Borderlands deal right now, and I am debating if I should pick it up or not. I know pretty much none of you play this on PC, but do you think it's worth the purchase anyhow? Is it a game I can jump online with random players and enjoy or no?

Well, NM. I got my brother to go in with me on the 4 pack so I'm getting it for super cheap. Downloading it now!

I hope it supports mods. That'd be awesome.

Well, I've got about 5 hours in and I'm loving the game. Anyone else play the PC version and want to join me sometime? If you don't own it head over to the contest page and enter my contest for a chance to win it! The game is probably very similar to the XBOX version with the exception that you could cheat extremely easy on the PC version. Pretty much 0 protection against it as far as I can tell, but that's not a problem for a coop game with friends.

Let me know if anyone wants to set a time and play.

and it doesn't look like it takes much of a computer to play it:

• OS: Windows XP/Vista
• Processor: 2.4 Ghz or equivalent processor with SSE2 support
• Memory: 1GB System RAM (2GB recommended with Vista)
• Graphics: 256mb video ram or better (GeForce 7 series or higher/Radeon HD3000 series or higher)
• Hard Drive: 8 GB or more free space
• Sound: Windows compatible sound card

Are those the minimum or the recommended requirements? Because that my be doable on my desktop.

I'm pretty sure those are minimums.

I would get it if it would run on my laptop too, but I am quite positive that won't happen.

Win7 - Unsure if compatible

Intel® Core™ i7-720QM Quad Core Processor 1.6GHz (2.8GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache) - Unsure, but I think it's suitable

4GB - Check

ATI Mobility RADEON® HD 4670 – 1GB - Check

500GB - Check

Soundblaster X-Fi Hi Def Audio - Check

I have a Dell XPS16. Are my specs good enough, Dat? I'm not 100% sure. Mostly concerned about the OS. Thanks.

borderlands streaming

jtv Cast over.

chats not wanting to work for me. I'll be playing soon though, and I'll be on steam.

JTV's broke right now, man. Like seriously bad. Chat's won't load, games page and profiles won't load, either.

I'm still trying to get into your stream, but it's taking forever.

"Whowantssomeyummycupcakes has entered the channedl".

LOL

I got the video to load but the chatbox will not.

Pro tip: Do NOT click the full window option on any embedded video on Gamercide. I had to restart my laptop. It locked up like mad. lol

Thanks for watching everyone! I'll get my streaming channel setup in the right forum now that we have one the next time I play!

Steam is running deals on Borderlands and the DLC. Which DLC should I get first?

Secret Armory of General Knoxx for sure. I haven't played any of the other ones, but SAoGK expands the level cap and adds a lot of new weapons, and even some new vehicles.

I'd pass on Moxxi altogether, unless you want the storage. Otherwise, the only other perk, is two extra skill points.

Ned was funny and pretty fun, but sort of short. Knoxx is the crown jewel, though. Definitely pick that one up.
