2K Games To Publish Gearbox's Borderlands; Update: Screenshots Released
Following Game Informer's reveal of the game and subsequent confirmation by Gearbox president Randy Pitchford, 2K Games today announced that it will publish Borderlands.
The game is described as being a sci-fi action one, with full co-op support, vehicular combat and featuring a content generation system allowing for "near-endless variety" in mission, environment, enemy, weapon, item and character customization.
"Borderlands creates a universe of gameplay that goes far beyond anything anyone would expect. We're tapping into every bit of Gearbox Software's experience with the biggest science fiction video game franchises, then taking everything way past the next level," said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. "The team at 2K Games shares our passion for pushing boundaries in gameplay and storytelling and are absolutely perfect partners for Borderlands."
Borderlands will be released during the holiday 2008 season on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Wow a deadline. Why would they even bother unless they are already that far along in development?

So we can expect a combination of Halo, HL1, and Alien---- All set in a post apocalyptic setting.
Sounds like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. with vehicles and without any foliage.
