    Borderlands 2 Launch Date Trailer - YouTube

    We have a launch date (september), we have all 4 characters revealed, we have explosion! Considering my wife and I still play the first Borderlands extensively, this will be a day 1 purchase without any hesitation whatsoever. Who else is ready to rock Pandora again?

    If anyone can make an animated .gif of the Claptrap dance, please do so.

    Also, as nice as the trailer was and how ecstatic I can be for this game, I'm really tired of dubstep in trailers. Can't wait for this fad to die.

    They pointed out a couple things I didn't notice the first time. :lol  @ the Marcus statue. I'm glad they didn't forget about him, he was one of my favorite characters in Borderlands.

    I'm really looking forward to this. New class looks great too, I'll be using her for sure. I was just thinking 'I really don't want to be the turret guy again' and she has a robot arm so that works for me. Also doesnt hurt that I pre-order the stuff I want so I'll get her automatically.

    Another nice thing is the addition of costumes and cosmetic gear as in-game rewards, I'm really into that kind of thing so it'll be interesting to see just how far they take it. Hoping it wont just be pallet swaps of the standard gear.

    It was also nice to see how many more options you have for how you want to build the character. I used Roland in 1, so I was half set up to be offensive for single player, and half defensive/support for playing co-op. Sounds arrogant, but healing turret + healing bullets = credit to team.

    Just hope the Mechromancer is available at release so I can get cracking straight away.

    I was in the PAX East panel when they announced it- the Mechromancer will be a DLC character, available 60-90 days after the game's release. It will be free if you pre-order, otherwise it will be priced as normal DLC.

    There's also 2 levels of collector's editions. One will be $99 and includes the bobble head, the other will be $150 and comes in an in-game style weapon chest. There's other stuff too but he didn't list everything.

    I hope they give us a couple more DLC character classes down the road too. 150 for a weapon chest style case? How am I going to talk my wife into that? :(
