Blend Games: On The Road To Hype Borderlands Last year we turned heads, rolled eyes and busted open the floodgates of sensationalism with the week long, Haze Hype. Well, it’s that time again to accrue interest in a game that deserves the hype, but isn’t getting any. Sort of like the smart and beautiful girl at school who keeps getting ignored by all the boys because of the hype surrounding the gimcrackly blonde with the double digit I.Q. Well, it’s the exact same way with 2K Games’ Borderlands: a shooter-RPG that offers up more functional gameplay than five standard shooters combined.

Nevertheless, as you all know, we didn’t just pick any game to hype. While Borderlands is a highly respected game, even during this middle-stage of its design, we here at Blend Games offered gamers a choice in the kind of game they wanted to see hyped. So for all the haters out there, you can check out our Top 5 Games That Needed Hype to see how Borderlands came out on top.

But don’t think that just because we’re interested in the game that it doesn’t deserve the hype, Borderlands is by far one of the most ambitious games in recent history. The gameplay premise alone has a lot riding on the future of the way gamers even play an RPG-shooter. So our goal through this process is to ensure that gamers are well aware of everything that Borderlands has to offer and exactly what Gearbox has set out to achieve. Each day we’ll cover the likes of Boderlands’ guns, vehicles, items, characters, maps and the goal of its gameplay.

Starting tomorrow, we’ll have our Day 1 news on the game, which will be sure to spark interest and spite (in equal measure) from some gamers. But you can bet your bottom dollar that by the time the week is out gamers will be well rounded with everything Borderlands has to offer. Feel free to drop by the Blend Games Forum to voice your opinion on the topic as we prep for a week of Borderlands hype. You can also visit the Official Borderlands Website for news and info on the game.
