For the last 3 years I have only been able to find my ff7 disc 3. Im on vacation back home in FL atm and found the first two discs. I still got the old ps1 here as well, and have been fighting the urge to Cloud it up as of late, knowing I'll get to the third disc and start fiending like a crackhead. WHAT DO I DO!

Since my move to Montreal, I have not owned a television. Having no television means I have not played any console games in a rather long time (I miss my xbox360). Therefore, I have to divert my gaming needs to my laptop. One favourite website of mine - for over a couple of months now - has been Play Fun Multiplayer Games Free At OMGPOP.
This website is basically a domain for multiplayer games of all variations. Once you have created an account you can customize your profile with perks, which are purchased with 'coins' that you earn when you win a match etc. They have a variety of games from a pictionary-esque game, a game called "balloono-pop" (I believe), and a handful of other fun multiplayer games. I highly recommend this site for anyone with some spare times on their hands, who do not want to spend any money.b |

^ don't worry, the awesomeness of Borderlands subsides after about 2 weeks max. it's unfortunate, the potential was awesome, but by the end of it, it's over. there's just too little story to draw you in and the characters are so hollow that you never really give a crap about accomplishing anything aside from getting (hopefully) good loot.

I haven't played that game but your criticisms really annoys me.
1. The story and character development isn't that deep, who f*cking cares? It's a video game. 2. WHY is a short game a bad game? A lot of my favorite games can be beaten in a day. Does Super Mario Bros have enough content to keep you hooked for 2 weeks straight? No. But it's better than a lot of games that fall into that category. Uusually the best games are short little experiences, like orgasms, which can then be revisited whenever you want. When RPGs lose their luster and you've fully powered up, well you can always start over again. It's ridiculous that a game can have a month's worth of replay value and still be considered too short, I never complained in the day when games only lasted an hour, no one did, because they're fun, that's all that matters. Now people care waaaaay too much about quantity, not enough about the quality. Video games don't need to be f*cking novels. |

Borderlands wasn't as good as I thought it would be, although I only played the single player which is obviously important. Nevertheless, mr dave hit the nail on the head pretty much. There's just very little in the game to motivate you to keep playing after a while. I'd say as a mix of FPS and RPG, it doesn't quite manage to get the best parts from both genres. As an FPS, it gets very repetitive and as an RPG, the story and so on is just too sparse, uninteresting and didn't motivate.
That's what it was for me anyways. I'd been playing it for quite a while, but one day, I just realized I didn't want to play it again.

Well, if it has RPG elements then criticizing the story is a legitimate complaint I guess. That's the only kind of game where the story is very important.
Borderlands looks very interesting though, has very unique visual style to it. I'm a fan of cel shading. |

Borderland is a great game, however it is too repetitive. A game has to end at one point, and while some are longer than others Borderlands still has a high replay value. The loot is pretty rewarding, but you are bound to move on eventually.
