The game is amazing for more reasons than one.
Linux is my daily driver, and thanks to Valve, Steam installs the linux version on linux, and windows on windows. I prefer the linux version because I use Manjaro for over a year now, and because I find that the colors in the linux version are more natural. The only downside to the linux version is, that Shift is not available.
Apart from that, although the game is a shooter, it's story driven, and the story is mad, fun and cool.

Staff Review
Borderlands 2 is as expansive as it is hilarious, and fun to play. It successfully mixes comedy with gunplay, and the beautiful cel-shaded graphics give an ironically childish feel to it. Jam-packed with all of the Game of the Year DLC, now's the perfect time to jump in.
