To buy or not to buy Borderlands? Is there still an active player base? Does the game keep you interested past the first 10-15 hours of play?

      There are various issues, from crappy menus to the crappy FOV, and other various things. It was never game breaking, but it's extremely obvious it's a port from console to PC.
      Man, it was really bad when it first came out, but my friends and I got it working and played the crap out of the game. I've put in just shy of 150 hours into the game and would gladly put more in if there was more cheap DLC or better modding potential.
      For 10 dollars, it's a steal! And for the $33.75 I paid when it came out, it's still a steal!
