NZ Herald Review - Borderlands: Not much of a story but a killer game

How can a game with virtually no story be so much fun?

Borderlands (Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Gearbox/2K R18+) has elements of both a first person shooter action and a role-playing game.

It's not complex, it's easy to play and heaps of shooting fun. It purposely sacrifices high-end next-gen graphics for a cartoon feel to add to the fun, and sacrifices much of a plot so you're not distracted from focusing on the characters and gameplay.
