Borderlands Surpasses 2 Million Units Sold
Discussing its "recent product highlights" today, Take-Two specified that the shooter-RPG has "sold over 2 million units worldwide" since its October release on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, adding that it "has established itself as a key franchise for Take-Two."
The publisher added that its holds the "long-term publishing rights" to the Gearbox-developed franchise. Back when Gearbox and Take-Two announced Borderlands in 2007, the duo claimed that it was "the first title in an all-new sci-fi action franchise."
And while there's been no word as to when the seemingly inevitable sequel will hit, Borderlands has already seen one downloadable expansion, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, with at least one other, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, due soon.

Someone on the Gearbox forums made a little program to change lots of the console type settings to PC ones and works and plays awesome then. Its in the topic of tweaking the PC version to de-consolize it.

I checked that app out, and it's just the same tweaks we did manually. Good for people who came into the game after the app existed though.
I think the only expanded tweak I saw (like 2 weeks ago, ,maybe?) was extending the Zoom Toggle code to work for Crouch (or the reverse...whichever was first, he added the other to the app)

Yeah it was pretty messed up at first but now it plays well with a little tweaking and is fun.

Well most stuff was interface related and what put me off of the "Out of the box" thing was no v sync. I had massive tearing

actually the one patch they released jacked up the shadows something awful for most folks running WinXP. all just to "fix" 3D Goggles effects for the five people on earth who use them. And they have yet to fix this. I finally stopped playing because it's retarded to take this long (4 weeks now) to resolve a problem caused by a patch.

i hope rage doesn't make the same mistake, but it feels like they may.

No way id would fuck up the PC controls. Look at Wolfenstein. Even though most people dislike it, the controls on the PC are pretty much ideal. The joypad/kbd+mouse transition and vice-versa is the best I've seen so far. Real time baby.
