2K Games宣布Borderlands第一个DLC, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned。
2K Games Announces First Downloadable Content for Borderlands™
The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned to infect players later this year
New York, NY - October 15, 2009 – 2K Games announced today that the first piece of downloadable content for Borderlands™, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, is planned for release later this year for all available platforms for $9.99 (800 Microsoft Points). The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is in development at Gearbox Software and is the first in a series of downloadable expansions that will enhance the Borderlands mayhem in fun and exciting ways.
Tasked with keeping the workers of Jakobs Cove alive, Dr. Ned (who is not related to Dr. Zed from Fyrestone) does his job a little too well, creating zombies and other abominations that now run rampant in this region. Players will have to work alongside Dr. Ned as they embark on a quest to cure the inhabitants of Jakobs Cove in this full-fledged expansion filled with new enemies, new quests and rare loot drops.
Featuring extensive co-op integration that seamlessly blends the single-player and multiplayer experiences, Borderlands allows players to freely join or leave each other’s games at any time for collaborative mayhem or the freedom to choose to play in full single-player mode to experience the world on their own. Borderlands also includes a groundbreaking weapon generation system that offers a near infinite variety of weapons to the player. Borderlands combines these features with addictive non-stop action to form a breakthrough experience that challenges the conventions of modern shooters and RPGs.
Developed by Gearbox Software, Borderlands™ is available at retailers in North America beginning October 20 for the PlayStation® 3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and beginning October 23 internationally. The Windows PC version will ship to retailers in North America and internationally on October 26 and October 30, respectively. Borderlands is rated M for Mature by the ESRB.
The Good

The Bad

- Lackluster loot sharing system.

Borderlands Demand Causing Retail Shortages
Some regions in North America have completely run out of copies.
October 21, 2009 - It appears publisher 2K was a little too modest with its sales expectations for Borderlands, the co-op, sci-fi shooter from Gearbox Software.
Despite releasing just yesterday, the developer confirmed today shortages are occurring in specific regions across North America, and that the company is looking to meet the demand.
"Yes, Borderlands copies of the Xbox 360 SKU have run out in a few regions, especially the east coast," Gearbox VP of Marketing Steve Gibson told IGN. "We are aware of this and are working with production and distribution at ramping up to catch up with demand."
"There will be more copies of Borderlands available on shelves as early as Thursday or Friday at many retailers," he added. "The PlayStation 3 SKU issues on the west coast are mostly regional and can be addressed by reallocation. We are confident that will happen quickly."
