Well, I actually got both about two days ago and they're very different. Borderlands seems to have more length to it but Brutal Legend is more, generally, fun. Depends if you actually have friends to play with.


This too will pass.

To me Brutal Legend looks terrible, and Borderlands was fun for the first 30 hours and now I kind of want to just trade it in so I can get MW2, AA2 or L4D2 when they come out...

Oh yeah, I can't play a game unless all 500 hours of it is fun.

I like games that I can continue to like... not ones that I only play through once.

MW2 will keep me playing for hours. ... Because of online.

I really liked Borderlands, it seems like a game I'll start over on as a different character sometime, when I'm not burnt out on it. I mean, I played it pretty much constantly when it came out.

As much as I love Tim Schafer, I would go with Borderlands at first. You should play the Brutal Legend demo first because it takes a lot of getting used to.

Buy borderlands, rent brutal legend. Brutal legend is by all means an awsome game. but there really isnt a reason to give it a second go if you beat it. It offers nothing more. Borderlands on the other hand is even more fufilling then youd want it to be.

He's a rocker, dipshit. There's just a thin line between rock and metal. Metal's only real difference is music where you can't possibly hear the lyrics. Jack Black is just awesome, so either way I think Brutal Legend deserves at least a rent.


I usually frequent the VG and collaboration Forums. If you find me anywhere else, I'm lost and can't find my way back.

still means you wont have any Dedicated servers mate.

I'd go for Brutal Legend on console, but since im an RPGer and a PC gamer i bought Borderlands, its good fun but i think it might be better to check it later on if you are planning to group up with strangers for quests. Since it just came out there will be alota nwebies online
