Playing Borderlands and Dead Island

I was AFE (away from Entropia) for two weeks. I was busy playing Borderlands and Dead Island.
Both games has RPG elements. You get experience points and gain levels and skills. Buy and upgrade weapons. Perform quest or missions. Kill monsters and run for your life. Almost like real role-playing game, but with lot less thinking.
Borderlands is a science fiction based first-person shooter with RPG elements released in the end of 2009. You can choose from 4 different characters to play the game. Three males and one female. Everyone with different skills and abilities. You can use all kind of different weapons with different elemental attacks. Also there are vehicles in the game you can use and even don't pay for them.
As you can see from this video the graphics in the game are really stylish and little cartoonish which is cool if you ask me. Also the music and the gameplay are better than 99% of the games that were released last 2 years.
Dead Island is a first person horror action-adventure, role-playing, open world video game released September 2011. Here you can also choose from 4 different characters to play the game. Two males and two females. Everyone with different skills and abilities. You can use all kind of different weapons and you can upgrade them and even modify them with different blueprints so they get different elemental attacks as bonus. Here also you can use vehicles for free to drive around the Island and kill zombies.
This was the emotional trailer that made most players wait for this game impatiently.
But here is video from the actual gameplay so you can see what this game really looks like:
Those two games are one of the best for the last 2-3 years, but they are too easy for gamers that like to play Entropia Universe or other hardcore RPG. Even a blind-man will finish them someday just by clicking the left mouse button and walking around. If you want real challenge you have to go to the good old Project Entropia and to try make your living in the hard hitting reality of Calypso or any other life-sucking planet made by Neverdie or another tasteless punk full with inflated self-importance, egotism, vanity, conceit, simple selfishness and focusing his sexual interest exclusively on himself.
