“Get Ready to Joy-Puke Your Face Off”
While Mass Effect 3 will likely dominate March and many of the month after it, Gearbox would like to take a moment to remind you that their anticipated sequel to their post-apocalyptic hit Borderlands will be out in September, at which point you should be jonesing for another big game. I never played the first one (go figure) but I admit, this trailer has my seriously thinking about getting the sequel. The subtly cel-shaded graphics are out-standing, and the characters designs are excellent, too. But most of all, I have to approve of any game that uses the word “bazilliondier.” (Via Kotaku)

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
