I rented Borderlands and have more or less been playing it nonstop. I chose the Berserker because he's avenging his dog or something and his special ability is punching.
Really, really fun game, but I am really fucking sick of getting stuck in walls and having to reload. It happens stupidly often.
They aren't kidding about the guns, either; as far as I can tell the only repeating weapons are those you get from respawning bosses, and usually those are only good for as long as it takes for you to become strong enough to kill them like any other enemy.
I was kind of wary about getting rid of my old guns for better new ones at first, mostly for sentimentality. I kind of struck gold with the shields, too. The 3rd one I found recharges your health super duper fast.

I've never been so angry at a game than at NG2. That game loves to throw two bosses or more in a row at you with no healing.

The ninja gaiden series was designed to hate us with a passion  . It wants to kill us all horribly. It's not a question of if you get the game over screen, it's a question of when.

I'm getting better at it, and the Acolyte mode is pretty easy once you know what to do. I'm on the big metal snake boss that excretes lightning. Not really as frustrating as the other ones since he's more a matter of dodging then shooting arrows and not BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK SINGLE SWORD SLASH TAKE A BAZILLION DAMAGE BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK
