		<description>dang you&#039;re pretty adamant about not getting Borderlands! hopefully now with the Amazon deal and more of my pressuring below it will get you over the hump.

Here&#039;s my thought process on backlog and buying games, etc. I have two different stacks of games: one that is basically single player backlog games and one that is multiplayer games. I would argue that playing online with friends is more enjoyable than playing a game solo, so I would play the hot online game with friends over some backlogged single player game any day. I&#039;d only return to my single player backlog if there wasn&#039;t any big multiplayer game out.

And dude Borderlands is made for you since we&#039;re cut from basically the same cloth. I&#039;m sure you can imagine how fun it is for four of us to work together and take down big bosses and sharing the epic loot that we&#039;re rewarded with. Skills + teamwork + rewards = complete gaming nirvana for gamers like us. How could you be playing Half-Life 2 single player when we&#039;re starting up Borderlands?! Don&#039;t be a hermit man.

These two games are the two top selling 360 games on Amazon today. Just the two you wanted to get!
