Remember Bioshock 2? What was its most lackluster feature? Oh yes, that was undoubtedly it’s Multiplayer mode. Not surprising as Bioshock was, is and will always be an SP centric game. And thankfully, Irrational Games won’t try to please its casual fans with another, useless MP mode. Ken Levine, creative director and co-founder of Irrational Games, has confirmed that Bioshock Infinite won’t feature any MP modes at all. Hooray.

Borderlands 2 is finally here with us, so it’s time to see how this bad boy performs on the PC. Gearbox has promised to polish the PC version and they are offering a nice number of parameters with which you can adjust the game’s visuals. Yes, there is a FOV slider and you can disable the mouse acceleration. However, the game itself seems to be suffering from various performance issues, issues that should not be present on a title that is powered by Epic’s Unreal Engine 3.

Gearbox’s Borderlands is perhaps one of the best cartoon-ish games. Borderlands uses a different technique for its cartoon-ish like visuals than cel-shading, but the final result is pretty close to it in our opinion. Needless to say that we don’t think there is something wrong calling Borderlands a cel-shaded game (as that term is used metaphorically to describe all cartoon-ish games with outlines), but that’s just us. Did you know, however, that the game had – originally – a more realistic look to it? Well, time to witness some of the early screenshots (as well as a target trailer) of it before it got ‘cel-ified.’ Continue reading This is what Borderlands was originally meant to look like; art style inspired by short film ‘Codehunters’→
