Wow they are prolific and as I quite like Single player FPS's its no bad thing. Valve should take a leaf out of their book. *points at empty slot where Half Life Ep 3 should be*
The Secret Armory of General Knoxx
Getting good reviews, I wonder if my trusty combat rifle will be able to cut the mustard in this. No doubt there is a weapon in this that cost more money than I have, which is about 4 million.

I'm up to New Haven on my second playthru, time to buy a DLC - is Dr Ned your recommendation Sunray?

Yup, for 6.30 I thought it was actually better than the main game. Need to be lvl 42 or higher, which you should be well above by now. I had to open up the travel system 2nd time through to get to a level where I could compete.
I tried to play the new Knoxx game and proceeded to lose $1.5 million in new-u regens in about 1 minute. My guns are now pea shooters. I think I am level 48 so I need to do more Underdome or something.
Tell you if its worth getting it when I can start it without dying instantly.

Bought Dr Ned yesterday, had a little play 
creepy... you can use get to it using the quick travel system even if you've not got it online yet according to a review I read (though I had).
I'm up to lvl 45 at the mo' I've got this ridiculous revolver (120x7, 7 shot with ammo regen) and 3 repeaters with 83 magazines (though my 28 clip x4 fire elemental seems the most effective but slow), one that does 120dmg at 9.9 rof, just when you think you need to reload, it's only down to halfway, not sure if they'd be any good on Knoxx though. That and my trusty volcano sniper (Trespass ftw), I've given up on the bird with my Hunter. It's all about the mods, man they get good at these later levels.
What character are you playing with Sunray?
It sounds like Knoxx starts at 50 skill wise - maybe when you level up to 51 it'll get better, I hear the final boss leaves some great gear, but he is almost impossible to solo (only with Lillith I've heard).
I love this game.

They are not kidding about the deaths. The 2nd mission is to clear a road block, I'm lvl 49 and there is a lvl 53 drone in that. It cuts me in half while taking no damage. No way I'm going to kill that without gaining a few levels and better eq.
I am playing Brick who's berserker skill is just great great fun and the way to kill just about anything. I reckon he could take on that lvl53 drone and smash it to bits but its in the air!! Grr..
Had a quick look at one of the machines and all of the weapons for sale in Knoxx were 6 million+.

Just download it.

ahhhhh.
shit one.
you could probably pick it up cheap pre owned.
if I was you I'd keep my money for Bad Company 2 or the new Final Fantasy.

Smell The Glove
Just got the Zombie Island DLC too, as well as the new Armory one for when it's finished. Really good addition, very happy that it makes the game worth playing again, forces you back into the habit of opening and collecting everything and being clever about what to take on. Playing it 2 player Co-op and it's definitely worth the £6.30.

Anyone know where the save game files are kept? Doing a reinstall and would be nice to lose progress.

Nice one, I've copied that whole folder, so can fish out after I've done it.

It's like the middle of groundhog day (the film), gets a bit repetitive and then it gets better again, dunno why, it's like grinding in eve or Wow but fun...

I only paid £14.99 for it (PS3, though). Worth that, I'd say...
The other annoying (or great, if that's your) thing about it is that unlike clearing levels on say Oblivion, all the monsters respawn after x amount of time. So you'll clear part of a level, fuck up on the next bit and lose a life, get teleported back to the bit before where the last of those lamp posts you passed is situated and have to fight that lot of monsters all over again. Same as when you turn a job in although you can run past them if your heart isn't into getting all the extra experience points.
Why do the scags carry money?

I'm now level 53 and even at that level the level 51 Lance brigade are so well equipped that they require you to really be careful or you die really often and really quickly.
Are there and really good shock resistant shields? The one I paid 800k for does nothing against the shock battle rifle the shock troopers carry.

Played it all the way through now and going through it a second time, so not that boring then. Been playing it with a mate so most of it is about trying to get to the weapon caches first to get the best guns.
I play with Hunter, as does my mate. The bird attacks the monsters and they drop more money so we call it the Jew hawk.

Yeah I've got this on PC, played it solid, it's great!
Completed it first time as soldier class and replayed it as siren class. About level 45 atm - and got the DLCs.
The zombie level was a bastard because originally I had corrosive class weapons ... not that good against zombies! So had to replay and stock up with fire-elemental weapons .... oh yeah bad ass on the SMG I am
... not impressed with the multiplayer though, seems a bit consoley for my liking and very very flasky at connections - usually end up hosting a server.

i got bored of this one quite fast. the opening was good and the graphics ok but as a single player fps rpg it just leaves me cold. there is no story to this one. at least not one i could pick up.

I just liked the massive variety of the weapons and in the end I think I managed to bag the most potent the game had. Story was so so, ending was a bit hmmm. But overall entertaining. The Dr Ned dlc was much better, one moment with a Jacobs Claptrap was pretty cool.
The Claptrap video shoot trailers for the game are quite cute.
I look forward to its successor which is being created for 2012 as we speak.

Borderlands 2 is out in a month. Tempted to pre-order on PS3 for the DLC. Anyone else getting it?
Borderlands 2 with Randy Pitchford hour long talk through on youtube. Looks good.
Borderlands was my second favourite split screen co op after Portal 2.
