So while you might have way to much now, when 4 people are picking over it after a big boss fight the game is a lot harder. Plus the first playthrough is rather easy, the second third fourth and fifth all get harder...and hey you stop leveling at 50 (or 60 I think with the DLC) you almost reach that level in the first playthrough. I have played the game on the "third" playthrough and got my but handed to me over and over.

The mistake here is pretty simple Borderlands is not a single player game, it can be played as such but is meant to be played MP. The game has it's faults don't get me wrong, but the fun that can be had with friends far outweighs them.
i don't know what are you talking about man, it was 4 of us playing the game (every class) and it was still a walk in a boring garden of eden for wussies. every quest->trivial, every boss->down in a few seconds. it got really boring eventually and we just stopped playing it. and played some icewind dale instead

i never played the game alone actually, but i imagine it must be even more terrible

Haven't played borderlands since release, but yeah I found it really easy. We all took different classes and never died fighting anything. Plus the beserker was BS Overpowered at the time (still probably is)

Damn it, this thread makes me feel weird for having fun with Borderlands.

Why ...? Each his own, as usual.
There will be more games I don't like and that you will like.
And not only games, diversity, it would be a boring world if we would be all the same, a 'brave new world', and unbelievable boring.....

i think a person can have fun with borderlands if he sucks at first person shooters and doesn't do every quest- there still would be some challenge left for him

Oh, where's the QWERTY? Where's the point? Duh... I'll just stay with oldies. I've tried Wii, and it was really disappointing. Xbox and PS3 are nearly equal, but they just don't worth that s..tloads of money to me, 'cause I don't have the time to play with them. PC 4 teh win - too bad it's ruled by WoW, CoD, and other 3-letter-named games... Plus mine is quite old now... so I'll just stay with oldies. I have reviews to be written as-well...
