The Soldier is pretty tough. I have yet to die at level 16. Leveling seems to be going slower, but I don't have much time to game so it may just be lack of time in the game. One of my staff said he had a lot harder time with a Hunter. I mainly use a shotgun I found that has a really fast rate of fire. Up close most things just explode....

That's funny... as I'm reading this thread this first commercial I've seen for the game comes on TV. Looks pretty neat, but is the gameplay "cartoon-ey" like it looks in the commercial?

I haven't seen a commercial for it, but it does have kind of a comic book look to it. The opening sequence is one of the best I've ever seen on a game.

Look for the skag standing on the highway.

2K Games announced today that the first piece of downloadable content for Borderlands, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, is planned for release later this year for all available platforms for $9.99 (800 Microsoft Points). The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is in development at Gearbox Software and is the first in a series of downloadable expansions that will enhance the Borderlands mayhem in fun and exciting ways.

Tasked with keeping the workers of Jakobs Cove alive, Dr. Ned (who is not related to Dr. Zed from Fyrestone) does his job a little too well, creating zombies and other abominations that now run rampant in this region. Players will have to work alongside Dr. Ned as they embark on a quest to cure the inhabitants of Jakobs Cove in this full-fledged expansion filled with new enemies, new quests and rare loot drops.

DLC coming: Zombie Island
