Borderlands 2 worth pre- ordering yet?

Read Digital Spy's review of Borderlands 2


So I am a huge Borderlands fan. I was thinking of pre ordering it . But bearing in mind I am not on PSN (As I have a shit connection). Would it be worth it what extras do you get?

Had my Ultimate Loot Chest edition on order since end of May from Amazon in Germany.

So I think 5 weeks is conservative...

Pre order - pay a set price - get extra stuff

Don't pre order - Pay the same price- don't get extra stuff

Even with a bad online a fail to see why you wouldn't want extra stuff for free

I pre-ordered 2 copies for the xbox 360 when Argos miss-priced them at £17.99.

I wasn't hopefull at all and expected them to cancel, but they've taken the money and they tweeted someone this

bargain.

I'll probably get it late because Argos don't ship until release date but i'll be getting fifa 13 on the same day so i'm not too fussed.

I loved Borderlands, kept me entertained for hours. My issue with Borderlands 2 is that it is launching at the exact same time as WoW - Mists of Pandaria.

So there is no point in me pre-ordering it, as WoW will keep me busy for at least a year, in which case all the DLC will be released and I can nab it for a bargain price on Steam after June 13 (when the last DLC is due to be released). Shame really, but WoW is such a time killer.

Just pre-ordered mine with Gamestation to get the "Creature Slaughter Dome" and "Premiere Club" plus already had £13 on my Elite Card so paid £24

I was going to get it on the PSN Store but they increased the price at the end of last week to £49.99. Sod that!

Really cannot wait for this, very new to Borderlands - in fact the first time I played it was last week after getting it free with PS+. Can't believe I didn't play it sooner!

Borderlands was one of those rare games. Absolute gems but one only a handful of people seem to have heard of. I came into it late as well, so late infact that I was better off soloing everything, but still got a good 60 hours worth of gaming from it. As I've said before I'd be all over this game like a shot if it wasn't for WoW releasing Mist of Pandaria next week.

I've got mine pre-downloaded on Steam all ready for Friday.

It's already out in the US so I was watching some streaming on Twitch. Looks really good. i think I will start with the Siren.

Playing the first one now too as I haven't completed it yet.

Would be absolutely awesome if it was to be delivered today even though I know it won't as they probably send via second class or something - but I'll still wait for the Postman as I'm off work today

Working for the next 4 days so will have to play as much as I can at night

Just traded in my original copy for credit towards this one.

Looking forward to getting immersed in the world of Pandora again.

Shopto dispatched mine earlier today so with any luck it'll be in my xbox tomorrow afternoon. To say I can't wait would be a huge understatement.

Mine too but I ordered the collectors edition but there's nobody in and it won't fit through the door.

I hope they leave it with a neighbour and not take it back to the depot else I'm gonna be gutted tonight. I haven't looked forward to a game this much in ages.

No game with the postman. I'd like to be surprised but this is the Royal Mail we're talking about here.

You can get the GOTY edition of the original for very little if you have a PC and Steam and are prepared to wait for a sale. I think mine cost me £6. Well worth it.

Still no fudging game from Gamestation. It was dispatched on Tuesday WTF!? Do they pay Royal Mail to hold items until set date or something?

Very gutted, always get pre-orders a day before release normally with other companies. Won't use Gamestation again :'(
