Borderlands = Defiance

I miss tabula rasa.. Just saying..

Defiance is a decent game. However, no way is it remotely close to being as great as Borderlands. Borderlands is a proven AAA blockbuster that will be remembered as one of the best new IPs this gen. Defiance has a decent beta that needs to be improved massively from the addition of more interesting content (overall the games content is rather bland and small) to a wider more interesting group of enemies. Sound is atrocious, lock on aim is annoying, and the skill trees are very uninteresting. This game is gonna live or die with endgame content and whether people actually buy it. With Borderlands playing through the campaign with four different, interesting characters is a given and not reliant on other people. This is truly a no-contest...

Defiance is very cool with loads of potential. Considering the fact it ties to a tv series is innovative to say the least, personally I think it could be great, but like all games, they can be what u make of them.

i am very much interested in how gear and weapons progress throught the game, and also endgame content

I liked borderlands....just found it stale after awhile.
I figured I'd give Defiance a shot....and I got hooked.
Can't wait to stop beta testing and just kicking *** in general.

You do realize that not everything is in the beta right?
You do realize that in an mmo there's bound to be bugs right?
You do realize....you know what...you probably don't....

your right defiance wins by a mile, cause i don't know borderlands 1 modded guns, and kyii glitch yeah that a winner, 3 hours of horde mode and no guns thank you moxii, borderlands 2 the invincibles patched cause of cc + bee combo. and they nerf that over powered combo. story was funny i give you that. AND we know why there was an 11 hour change to the borderlands you need to look at aliens colonial marines, and figure out why borderlands was made to look like comic book cell shading

I honestly don't know what the heck you were even saying here. Anyway, nobody ever said Borderlands was a perfect game. However, the game managed to be one of the greatest titles released this gen. Defiance has not done that as it's still in a beta so to even insinuate that it's somehow superior is moronic. I'm pretty sure the retail will fix a number of issues. However, if you expect this game to recieve anywhere near the critical acclaim, from the gaming community, that Borderlands has prepare for massive disappointment.
