Borderlands is a pretty tight game. I think it shits all over Fallout in terms of pacing, gameplay, graphics, humor, violence, mischief and malice, and overall simplicity of story. So basically it shits all over Fallout in pretty much every category that matters, probably even sound.

I count Borderlands among Assassin's Creed and Uncharted 2 as true next gen experiences. Everything else just pales in comparison, especially if you compare a game in the same genre to it. Dragon Age? Pfffffft. Spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate? Yeah, right. Spiritual successor to Neverwinter Nights, more like. And apparently Game Informer's next magazine cover has the reveal of Dragon Age 2? I hope the Official PlayStation Magazine straight bitch slaps Game Informer and gets the scoop on Borderlands 2. That would be tight.
