Wondering what’s happened to the Borderlands game? Borderlands has undergone a graphical overhaul, as you can see in the screenshot comparison above. The new look has a cel-shaded quality, similar to the Crackdown Xbox 360 game. It’s a turn from the realistic look the game was going for back in 2007, as you can see in the trailer here.
See 7 newly released high-resolution screenshots here (or thumbnails here).

A summary of Borderlands, from 2K Games:
“Borderlands combines the best in first-person action with player customization and vehicular combat for incredible layers of gameplay depth. The game features a groundbreaking content generation system allowing for near-endless variety in weapons, item drops and character customization. Borderlands allows for multiple players to share the same game experience simultaneously online in co-op gameplay. Players can freely join or leave each other’s games at anytime, or choose to play in the full single-player mode. These features, along with a rich and deep fiction that touches upon the mysteries buried beneath the surface of a danger-filled planet, combine to form a breakthrough experience that challenges the conventions of modern shooters.”
