IGN is the most universally well-known and reputable review site, closely followed by Polygon. Hence I put them at the top.

Those reviews aren't particularly encouraging. The scores are pretty good, but if you read between the lines, they all seem to be saying that the game is kind of boring, repetitive, and more of the same thing as the previous games. Basically, the only good things they have to say are things like "it's still good ol' Borderlands".

Pretty much what I expected, really.

Reputable? Hehe...well, besides that mishap. Someone should put a Metacritic link. :P

I guess that that's really is the point.

Why i'm getting this game? Because i had tons of fun with BL2 and PS it's just made for that: give you some fresh breeze to enjoy something "old and known" with that strange "new" feeling.

I this would have been called BL3, i would be really pissed off.
Changing in deep the game's mechanincs it's something that is supposed to be handled in a brand new step of the franchise; this it's just a huge, stand alone, old '90s school expansion. With 20+ hours of storyline, some new features and new classes.

If you (not YOU expecially) just want to play BL3, just wait for BL3 ;)

And that's the essence why so many want to play this game. Nothing to add :)
