    Shock weapons against zombies? Such a noob, Owen! =p

    You should see this amazing incendiary SMG I got, actually. Made most of the last bits of the game very easy indeed. #borderlands

    Yeah, if they were to recreate Modern Warfare 2 there would need to be a lot more people using M203s and the battlefield would be a ghost town because everyone would be camping. #callofduty

    Borderlands is one of my favorite games to come out all year, and this looks like some of the best DLC to come out in a while. 50 missions? Well played, Gearbox. #borderlands

    Still having a blast with this game as I'm [slowly] working through my 2nd run [Lv. 47 Mordy] but Gearbox needs to do one thing for me:

    Fix the broken achievements.

    Seriously, I've killed like a billion fucking guys with Corrosive weapons and no Facemelter. I haven't rushed through this game at all but come on it's been out for awhile and I would've thought there'd be a fix by now.

    Am I the only one getting sick of all the wahhh talk about "Fast DLC means they're charging us extra for the 'full' game!!!11one!1eleven"

    Do a check on how long it takes between going gold and a game actually selling on shelves.

    Compare that to how long it takes to get DLC out when it's finished.

    Just because DLC comes out a week or two after a game launches, doesn't mean the DLC was magically finished in time for the game to go to print and they excluded it because they were evil.

    But honestly, the same people would probably bitch and moan if it took them a month to launch DLC because it should have been out sooner.

    The game had plenty of content at launch. Them adding more later doesn't mean they subtracted before. Grow up. #borderlands

    @Squiffy: Also, those people need to consider that the game isn't finished the day it's released, the 'finished game' has to be submitted for mass production quite some time before the actual release date, so they might have had 1-2 months to work on this since they 'finished' the original game. #borderlands

    @Squiffy: no problem with it specially if the game takes about 20 - 30 hours to play. i personally like DLC if its as big as this is supposed to be. i dont like it if its the street fighter 4 type with just the added costumes. but if you dont like it you dont have to buy it. vote with your money!!! #borderlands

    @Squiffy: I remember hearing that they when Bioware delayed Dragon Age, the separate team working on the DLC managed to complete the Stone Prisoner and the Warden's Keep before the game was released...

    Then again, we know that Stone Prisoner was designed specifically as a used-copy-purchase prevention measure, and it looks like Warden's Keep was just designed to give them enough content for a collector's edition or something.

    I get it when people talk about Capcom, when apparently the material is on the disc, but if something's developed separately and actually downloaded, I think peoples' complaints are unwarranted. #borderlands

    @Squiffy: What utter foolishness - I simply cannot believe and fathom anyone actually has the nerve to try and justify such blatant corporate greed and avarice. In what alternate universe is making a frugal, prudent buying decision such a bad thing? Frankly, I loathe the idea of being nickle-and-dimed for every insignificant addition to an already vivid, pre-existing game world, especially if said items come out literally one day after initial launch. The idea baffles and fills me with seething rage. When I dish out $60 for a brand new title, I expect it to be highly polished to the absolute maximum degree - not some half-assed, bug-ridden, glitch infested, novice attempt at game design, with no control over servers or creative expression whatsoever (I'm looking at you, Infinity Ward)! It is indeed a bad, unethical, suspicious business practice, when DLC is released the following day, at higher rates than other forms of media (ala Guitar Hero & Rock Band song tracks). I refuse to be another stupid, uninformed, naive consumer, incapable of discerning right from wrong, and will gladly boycott if the need arises. For some reason, I get a feeling you work for the industry, or are somehow in on the conspiracy. It is beyond my mental capacity and understanding, why anyone would possibly support these methods without being brainwashed or profiting off of it. It's like allowing yourself to be rape victim, or an idle bystander witnessing a horrible atrocity, but at the same time, you're getting paid to keep your mouth shut, so it must be fine and alright. At least, that's what I can gain from reading the comment above, because it doesn't make much sense relative to the way gamers are being treated currently as a whole. I also don't appreciate how you not only encourage intentional, deliberate price gouging, but foul-mouth those who happen to love freedom and equality. If you've been paying even remote attention to industry trends lately, you would've noticed and realized that many companies tend to act as if all gamers are guilty of being "hackers", "pirates" and whatnot. As long as we continue to maintain that image, they can easily deprive us of basic civil rights, until videogames (as an art form) is nothing but a commercialized dead shell of it's former self, glorious self. What we need to do, is put trust and faith in good companies, and let them serve as proper examples for ones who take our actions with skepticism and hostility. P.S. Telling Kotaku users to "grow up" gives zero legitimacy to your argument, and is just plain ruge. I hope you refrain from doing it in the future and learn from your mistakes.

    @kingphilip: Yeah, I thought that was classy, too.

    Note how he says I was rude for telling people to grow up, then brings up that little gem.

    Yes, there are cases of companies intentionally gouging with overpriced or underdone DLC.

    I was aiming my comment at the people that complain about every piece of DLC out there, regardless of quality or quantity. The people who feel they are "owed" all extra content for free, or that all DLC should be on the scale of Fallout 3 and GTA4's expansions.

    I'll be picking up this DLC. I won't be picking up minor things I don't see adding much value to my gaming time. #borderlands

    @Hikiko: No, I don't work for the industry. But I support those that put out good DLC.

    I have no problem paying for quality DLC like this one. I won't be picking up costumes or things like that.

    My comment was referring to this article in particular, and how they dismiss the DLC due to how quickly it arrived. I was merely giving examples of why DLC can arrive seemingly quickly.

    Not to mention, as another commenter mentioned, oftentimes a separate team works on DLC near the end of the core game's development cycle. #borderlands

    @Squiffy: Just commenting to back you up Squiffy. Hikiko sounds like he needs to take off his tin foil hat and/or troll more. Not all DLC's are worth buying, true, but this one in particular looks worth the money and I'll gladly buy it to encourage more good DLC's of this type. #borderlands

    Again, I'd get this on day one. $10 is the standard price for DLC-levels and since the standard game was worth more than the $60 my roommate paid for, I can see that $10 going to good use.

    I just really hope that there arent any game breaking bugs in this release compared to stand alone game. I also hope that this wouldn't be the last DLC made for it.
