"Borderlands 2 features a 58-hour campaign, it has been suggested. Describing Borderlands 2 as a hobby, Gearbox marketing manager Steve Gibson told Gamerzines that some players took 58 hours to finish the campaign with one character.   &amp;quot;What we like to think about it is, Borderlands is a hobby. Some guide guys just did a playthrough of Borderlands 2 and they reported back to us that it takes 58 hours to play through the campaign - and that&amp;#039;s just one playthrough with one character,&amp;quot; Gibson explained. &amp;quot;We look at it as a hobby, and that isn&amp;#039;t even counting the new Badass Points system and how that&amp;#039;ll affect every character you do.  &amp;quot;We want it to feel like you get more for your money. We&amp;#039;re happy for people to pay their money once and feel that they get ongoing value.&amp;quot; Gearbox president Randy Pitchford recently said that the game&amp;#039;s budget was effectively around three or four times greater than that of the original. The Borderlands 2 Deluxe Vault Hunter&amp;#039;s Collectors Edition and the Ultimate Loot Chest Limited Edition were also recently unveiled by the studio.  Borderlands 2 will be available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC on September 18 in North America and on September 21 across Europe. &amp;gt; Read our latest &amp;#039;Borderlands 2&amp;#039; interview with Gearbox Software &amp;gt; Read our hands-on preview of &amp;#039;Borderlands 2&amp;#039; Watch the latest trailer for Borderlands 2 below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
