Post Apocalypse is hot right now. Maybe it’s because the times are simply such that the idea of a radiation ruined landscape full of mutants and more or less blood-thirsty survivors do not feel so strange. Maybe it’s because fantasylandskapens scenery awaits us in the neck and that we yearn for more coarse-grained rust colors.

Perhaps it is simply “fall-out 3″ which has given you a taste.

For those who want the latest in post-apocalyptic designs recently released MMORPG: et “Fallen Earth” for the PC. It takes place in and around the Grand Canyon and it remains to be seen whether the developers manage to make an interesting game of it eventually. Prior reports have been lukewarm.

More flight is ready “Borderlands”. The first thing that strikes one is aesthetics. It looks as though Jamie Hewlett - the British artist behind the series “Tank Girl” and the band Gorillaz - was a model in the design of the planet Pandora, and the characters who are trying to survive in the remains of a vanished civilization. The effect is above, and quite appealing.

Anyone looking for a plot and a heart that recall “Fall Outs” will be disappointed. Anyone looking for weapons, by contrast, a rare nailed feast to look forward to. It is quite immediately clear that “Borderlands” is one big amusement park with a focus on shooting ranges. There are reportedly more than three million different weapon models that randomly generated along one’s path. The most remarkable combinations can thus arise, and do it well.

Developer Gearbox has called this his game for an RPS, “role playing shooter” - a typical cross-genre name that is worthy of himself. In a solo game choose one of four characters with different specialties and we struggle along on and upgrade themselves through the main storyline and numerous side missions that hardly stands out for originality. Idéinnehållet have not spent so much time, and comedy is the short notice the title.

But it is not the thing. “Borderlands” is played with other players, and to this end, there are a variety of ways to group themselves, including duels, off-line co-op on split screen and vehicle combat. It is hectic and you can jump in and out a bit as the case may be.

No one majestic, epic parable about mankind’s struggle for survival, that is. A decent personality, but not much heart. But it was not the idea. The operator of a hunt is on at that super weapon that might herons somewhere behind the ramshackle shed of corrugated iron, which stand out against the crimson horizon of fallen earth chips sale .
