Borderlands screens focus on HUD, vehicles

Traveling across the "badass"-infested Borderlands without some form of motorized transportation would be an exhausting process -- fortunately, the game contains a number of vehicles for you to tool around in. You could also use them to blow up/mow down your adversaries, depending on whether or not you're prone to being overcome by fits of Billy Joel-ish driving. (Oh, that wasn't fair. The Piano Man has been crash-free since 2004. We apologize, Mr. Joel.)

The most recent batch of screenshots from Gearbox's multiplayer FPSRPG depict these acts of vehicular manslaughter with flair -- you can check them out in the gallery below. Also present in this gallery is a nice look at the game's heads-up display, character progression system and ... purple lobsters? Man, between that imagery, the "flaming midgets" and the "spider ass-sacks," this is shaping up to be the weirdest game ever.
