Forums - Gaming Discussion - Is Borderlands an MMO?

It looks really cool, but I can't tell what it is, mmo or fps.......or BOTH!!!

Its not an MMO.  Its a FPSRPG.  Looks like an awesome game!



Is it not out yet? Wow.. I totally forgot about the game until just now, but I saw a really awesome preview of it yeaaaaarrrrrs ago in a GameInformer magazine.

I thought it was going to be out by now. I figured it just went under the radar.



Does it have massive amounts of players?



MMO is not a genre. Just like MMORPGs are from the RPG genre, MMOFPS are also Shooters from the Action genre.

Borderlads, though, is a FPS/RPG hybrid, a mix between FPS and RPG, like the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Deus Ex games

It looks okay I saw some video demo's on gamespot and G4 the graphic style and online combat is a little not my taste

Honestly, do JRPG makers even realize how hard it is to save the world? That shit is impossible!

 

 

 

Would that make Halo an MMO since it has online play with many players?

Hhaha I never looked at it like that before.
