Borderlands Screenshot, Movie

Gearbox Software has released a screenshot of the Crimson Lance, "real bad guys" from Borderlands, who are some of the enemies you'll run into after level 15 of Gearbox's upcoming role-playing shooter. Also, there's an new trailer on the YouTube offering episode 2 in their Claptrap Web Series, where their rolling mascot fulfils the life's dream of any actor, as he gets to direct. There's a Q&A with Randy Pitchford about the Crimson Lance on Giant Bomb, and here's a quote about them from Randy to accompany the screenshot:

So, Borderlands is pretty damn huge. How huge? We're talking 60+ hours of questing availalbe to the player in just the first play through. But the thing is, all of those screenshots and trailer footage have just been showing the noobie areas of the game. You havent even met the real bad guys yet in Borderlands; the content past level 15.

What we've been trying really hard to hold things back and not reveal too much and spoil most of the game. Yes, it has been mentioned that Borderlands has other environments in the game like snowy mountain tops and the military installations but we arent showing it! Remember all of those movie trailers you've seen that give away all the best stuff and the whole damn story before you're even at the theater? Yeah, we think that sucks too.

We are just a few short weeks away from release and we want to assure gamers there is way more to Borderlands. A lot more. So to get that point across here is just a tiny little tease.

Meet the Crimson Lance.

I disliked WoW because it seemed to take 30 minutes + just to get from one quest to the next. I have no time for this. Is Boderlands going to be different? Nope. This is a total WoW-clone.
