On Steam, with numerous PC-centric features

Gearbox's post-apocalyptic FPS-ARPG Borderlands is coming to town at the end of October. The game will be making an appearance on the PC, Xbox 360, and the PS3. Fans of downloading their game instead of buying it will be happy to hear that the PC version has now been confirmed to be coming to Steam -- so says Gearbox's Twitter.

All too often, when games get simultaneously released for consoles and the PC, the three versions of the game are virtually the same. It is a fairly common thing, for example, to see menus in the PC version of the game instructing you to hit 'B' or 'X' to select something. But Gearbox has made some recent comments outlining features showing a strong PC-focus.

For starters, you'll be able to export any images of your sweet looking gear into a JPG file. So now bragging is easier than ever. Borderlands PC will also have a built-in time demo feature, that can be used for benchmarking -- which is great news, for people like myself, who benchmark video cards. And finally, the game's UI will be designed with the mouse in mind, for PC players. The inventory system should be a little bit easier to navigate with a mouse, instead of console controls.

Borderlands is coming October 20th for the Xbox 360 and PS3, and on the 26th for the PC.
