Forum:Are you still really into Borderlands?

I havent been on hear in awhile, this was do to my xbox getting RROD and me not wanting to dish out 100bucks for the repair. I traded my Wii for an xbox on craigslist 2 weeks ago and found my self falling right back into my lovingly addictive game of Borderlands. Sadly it seems this forum is barely active anymore, so I wonder if there are still any BL heads out there?

I can honestly say, there has not been a game I have played continuously for this long in my life. For me, its all about the hunt for weapons. It's IMO like a pokemon (go ahead and flame me for being 24 and still playing pokemon, I love it) FPS, in that I feel the need to collect the most powerful versions of weapons and sheilds.

I also have started doing challenges for myself, challenges like only using 1 type of weapon throughout the whole game. ex: Mordacai: pistols only/Lilith: SMG's only or in 1 case using only one weapon that the character has no advantage with. I only really get to play co-op with my nephews or my brother, but its very hard to get them to do "the challenge", and they usually bitch its too hard and give up and go back to other weapons.

Borderlands is really the only game I play anymore, I occasionally will play RE5 or Reach co-op with someone, but I tend to get so bored with them very fast. I feel like borderland has changed me in what I look for in a game. I'm not satisfied anymore with a Halo or Gears with characters that dont level, or a handfull of unchanging weapons.

I'm sitting here at work right now, planning what I'm gonna do on Borderlands went I get home tonight.

So basically this thread is to find out if there are any more BL heads out there, still playing BL on nearly a daily basis, still loving this game and playing it above other/newer games, anyone sitting at work/school with the itch to get home and play...And also to find out what keeps you playing, and any playstyle's challenges you want to share to give another BL head yet another thing to try in this awesome game.
