Borderlands does so many things right especially when played with a friend that shares the loot. It has just about the best coop, humor, guns and just good times. It does a lot right from the vehicles to the variety in fools to kill. Rage does only two things right when it tries to do many things. The shooting aspect, which ID is known for, and the graphics. Everything else in the game is pretty terrible from the the story, characters, rpg elements, psuedo-open world, and length. It has fun parts at the indoor shooting parts, but otherwise it is a poor game. A shame, but ID just showed they just need to stick to a straight shooter or hire people that have more experience with all the other elements. Rage had potential, but it failed. Borderlands really does everything right and got good sales because of it. The sequel should be good if the manage to change enough.
