How to Leave the Starting Place in Borderlands

The opening area or starling place in the PC/PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 game "Borderlands" is relatively short compared to the rest of the game, but presents players with a steep introduction to the game's mechanics. While it looks like a traditional shooting game, "Borderlands" incorporates key elements from role-playing games to create an experience that is distinctly different from the traditional first-person shooter.
