    It's looking sweeter by the trailer. Seriously, Oct is far too far away! I love how they say, X Bazillion guns haha.

    I'll have to see if I can get a copy of that, hopefully you had a good weekend - insanespoon?

    I see there's been no new stuff from Comic Con as of yet for BL though, I was hoping we might have some more info - esp on Level Cap and other things. Early days still though!

    I've been looking (not regged though) at the BL forums, some nice juicy info over there. If you pause that trailer you can spot the turret gun for Roland too!

    Cool looks like I'll be using a turret gun then. Only thing better that can happen is a surprise announcement saying it will release in 5 minutes lol.

    That was definitely awesome! Hopefully they will come out with a demo for the game.

    I laughed at this, a quote from Randy on the exact number of guns (at the moment): Pitchford: Yes, but it's not a sheet (laughs). There are millions of permutations. I think the last count was like 17,750,000. A demo would rock.

    How are they counting? Hopefully they didn't hire a room full of people to play and count them all lol. I've read on gamespy.com they they may have a demo.

    Apparently (I skimmed a few threads at their forums), it's calculated by their software (GearBuilder) which just sounds AWESOME.

    Maybe it can track how many guns you've found in game then?

    Well, as far as I can tell, the program itself in the background has a solid idea of how many gun permutations there are. Around 17 million or so at the moment, it could get higher as Gearbox layer on more and more interesting additional materials and designs. I have a feeling they haven't truly locked in their gun feature set quite yet and Oct is still way far away.

    I could say around 25-30 million if they keep on adding materials, designs and so on. They've confirmed there are upgrades to the grenades now and even the shield that you can use - so I'm wondering if that's going to be special effects like, say, a shock shield.

    That would be cool. I wonder if they will add any alien technology that they keep telling us about. I'm thinking alien guns that turn people into other things and such.

    I presume that's what is inside the Vault...if so, I'm going to rock out with some serious guns in the new game+ mode.
