They share a very similar style, although you can't accuse id for ripping off Gearbox. Development of Rage began long before Borderlands was even announced.
I suppose I am looking most forward to the diversity and the technology Rage will offer. As well as offering a unique cast of characters (unlike the 30,000 cloned imps of the last game) Rage uses an interesting engine that allows them to stream unique texture data directly from the hard drive. Every single polygon in the game has been hand painted from scratch, so there is no such thing as tiling textures in Rage.
@Superku: Yes I've seen the trailer, it's very good! Have you seen the six part "Behind the Scenes" series on Youtube? It explains the game a lot better than a two minute trailer can.

Just preordered Rage for PC and bought a new graphics card. Also bought an almost unused copy of System Shock 2 for $30! Great deal.

Bananas are the best fruit you can get.
Also: birthday.
EDIT: Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Avocados suck.

Hopefully they got the weapon handling right this time, it was pretty weak in Doom 3 (the game was not so great, too). I agree. The sound effects were particularly bad imo. I pre-ordered this game two months ago, so I'm eagerly awaiting my copy on Oct. 4th (US release date). I bought the Xbox version and I'm having it shipped from Amazon.com - the PC version will probably be slightly superior (yay hacking!) but I've got a thing against Steam (don't try to argue it) and my PC is crap anyway. Besides, this way I get to play splitscreen cooperative multiplayer with my brothers.
