just got it, surprisingly it runs playably on a win7 dual core laptop with onboard video. i'm only about half hour in but i like what i see so far.

I can't play it properly, minimum settings still too high for my comp

yeah i mean it's definitely slightly choppy when there's a lot of shit going on screen but it's playable. wish i had a better video card.

edit: actually, it plays absolutely fine. what's your system specs? mine doesn't meet them either (video card-wise) but it plays fine. i downloaded this proggy called "game booster" from majorgeeks.com- basically it kills all non-essential processes temporarily while you're in game so it frees up RAM and processor usage. borderlands went from choppy to a playable ~45-50fps i would estimate. using win7 x86 fyi.

i'm about two hours into the game, just beat the first boss. this game is addictive and a lot of fun trying to dig around for all the badass weapons- my only gripe so far is the lack of variation with the enemies *so far* but who nows what'll happen once i get out of the badlands..

Ive been playing these for the past few days and so far im quite enjoying it. Also surprisingly it works really well on my poor laptop. I keep the res low (doesn't bother me since i play classic games in low res all the time) but other effects high and it looks damn nice and is not choppy at all even when there's a lot going on on the screen. Lvl 25 Siren with a developed assassination skill tree, i kill most things before they even know that im there

i *believe* so, with a bit of tweaking. again i'm using onboard video with shared ram- it's an nvidia geforce 8200m, totally not for 3d gaming, but it works.

Just got it for the PS3 for Christmas and getting ready to start it up now. Concept seemed cool, hoping it delivers.

ftw! Made fallout 3 playable on high settings rather than medium, no joke. Very useful little app. Based on the comments here I'm probably going to have check this game out next. I'm pushing 150 hours on my current Fallout character & lvl 28 and I have yet to complete 4 of the 5 DLCs

borderlands has quite literally ZERO end game

Runs sweet on my pc, and I've enjoyed it. It's all about multiplayer though, as PT2 and PT2.5 are boring solo.
