Borderlands has shipped!

Borderlands has been released! It was released on October 20th with a very well received release! I was able to make it out to a midnight release at a Gamestop in Oregon, and it was awesome to see how excited people were. Borderlands has continued to sell well a month later. Downloadable content will be released next week for the consoles.

I want to make a special call out to the level design department. We pulled through and made some amazing areas and amazing content. If I pulled anything away from my development time on Borderlands, it is how a strong motivated team can overcome any obstacle. We've made a tremendous game, something we can all be proud of. I look forward to working with those fine gentlemen on upcoming projects.

I'm now back working on Aliens: Colonial Marines! I've returned working as a level designer and also juggling other game design tasks. Things are in motion and it makes me very excited. Using the experience I've gained from Borderlands and Graeme Timmin's new leadership on the project I know we'll have a kick ass product for you in the future. Can't wait until I can speak more about it, but I know we wont let you down!

Now that times are a little less hectic I've got a library of games that I have to play. Almost all are for the Xbox 360, but I have a couple games for the PC I'm also looking forward to. During my 2 week vacation after the release of Borderlands I only got through 2 so this may take me a while, especially with the mass of great games coming out. My goal is to spend at least 2 hours a day catching up on gaming. Go ahead and make fun of me if I fail my goal. Here is the list of games I have!
