Another Comic-Con has come and gone, and the Monkey in the Cage crew is WORN OUT!

Join us this week as we are once again joined by our favorite intern, Jared the Intern, and artist/illustrator extraordinaire Dennis Salvatier to recap all of our experiences outside of the convention center.

A game I’m finally excited for!: Borderlands 2

So this week a release date trailer was hoisted upon the Internet by the kind folks at Gearbox Software. While everyone has known since Borderlands was released there would be a sequel, we finally have a date (in the far off future(Stupid September 18th, 2012)) to anxiously await more insane guns and claptrap one-liners.

Borderlands was one of those random games that I picked up on a lark, then had trouble putting it down once I got started. The only way I can describe the feeling of playing the game is that it is incredibly repetitive, but I can’t stop playing it, it is too much fun.

Gearbox has become one of the few developers that I will buy anything they produce (within reason). They consistently put out high quality products and go out of their way to show appreciation to their fans. How many companies would go out of their way to write a eulogy for a fan that died of cancer, then get one of their voice actors to recite the eulogy, and put put said fan in Borderlands 2?

Borderlands 2 will be a day one buy from me and hopefully there are a few other PS3 owners out there who would like to get together and destroy the inhabitants of Pandora with me.
