    Well, I mean... it only does because enough of us agree that what it defines is objective.

    And when you consider the more we delve into what we think we know, the less sense it makes...

    I mean... the guy could have a point there.

    I'd like you to expand on this point.

    Well the split screen is butt. We tried to lan

    We had 2 PS3s. 2 Games

    and figured we could do four person split screen.

    but nope.

    you need 4 ps3s. 4 games. and 4 tvs. for a four person lan and that is just silly.

    so yes.

    how do you make borderlands fun?

    The way I see it, our experience is entirely subjective and science is just the best means we have to make sense of it. I'm not entirely sure there is such a thing as objective truth beyond the fact that we do indeed experience something.

    When you look at things like the wave/particle duality of light, or even try to define something like time, you basically end up with best guesses. These are fundamental elements of our experience. We experience gravity uniformly in every day life, but we don't even have an actual ability to point to something and say, "That's gravity!" Then, considering our understanding of it completely breaks down at the quantum level, it becomes apparent that we're not fully able to grasp the truth about what we experience.

    I'm not saying things like these New Age hippie cults that claim Quantum Physics explain how you can think yourself a new car or anything like that is a valid viewpoint. I'm just saying it's entirely feasible that our concept of objectivity is only held together by the fragile strings of it explaining enough of what we know.

    I may have gone off track near the end there... I'm also making dinner while I type this, so I'm a bit fractured :P

    MW 2 and Borderlands aren't very comparable, though

    I know but I just would like a fun local multiplayer experience. That is all.

    Borderlands sucks a bit in single player. And running around as a duo is just barely rewarding.
