Borderlands 
2 is not a game for pacifists. But for those who like combining the loot discovery of Diablo with the guns blazing, shoot-first-never-ask-questions style of classics like Quake or Unreal, it’s a match made in video game heaven.
The Gearbox Software game for the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 hits stores today and has already charmed critics, who unanimously agree that it’s a better game than its predecessor thanks to great writing and strong visual design. With a Metacritic score of 90 — after 33 publications have chimed in — it currently stands as one of the most critically-acclaimed games of the year.
