November 30, 2009 - Excellent - At $10, your looking at at least another 8 hours of gameplay. If you're still playing or are looking to reach that level cap with something a bit more engaging than grinding, I suggest you check it out.
November 30, 2009 - Excellent - The Zombie Island of Dr Ned is a great start for Borderlands DLC and hopefully it will only get better from here. It adds something new to both the gameplay and environment, it is funnier than the main game, the story is better told and more interesting and it has a good amount of content to keep you busy for many more hours.
December 9, 2009 - Excellent - With a tighter, more condensed storyline, tons of great humor, lots of varied enemies and fresh, new environments to play in once you finish your first run to the Vault, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is a simply awesome expansion pack and a great way to change up your Borderlands experience.
November 24, 2009 - Good - Whatever the time of year, Halloween and Borderlands is a great match, and if this is the way the game's DLC is going to unfold, I'd happily have a dozen of these quirky, colourful offshoots to plough through.

December 1, 2009 - Good - For those that have the means and already enjoy the campy humor of Borderlands, Zombie Island of Dr. Ned may be just what you're looking for. I really did enjoy the presentation of this episode from start to finish. I hope the next DLC maintains this tradition while addressing some of the more glaring shortcomings.
November 25, 2009 - Good - The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned delivers the game's distinctive humor even better than the original and has all the great gunplay and satisfying loot to boot. If you've got any kind of desire to seek out further adventures on Pandora, you should definitely pay the Zombie Island a visit.
December 11, 2009 - Good - The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is a humorous and entertaining episode to extend the Borderlands experience. However, it can be a bit repetitive at times, and it lacks any worthwhile souvenirs.
November 25, 2009 - Good - The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is a solid addition for anyone who wants more Borderlands, but the lack of additional items or further opportunities for character building feel like a missed opportunity that could have given this content a lasting effect.
December 1, 2009 - Good - The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is a well-made and entertaining piece of content, giving Borderlands fans a chance to sink bullets into undead flesh in new environments and with some additional quest goals.
February 1, 2010 - Good - The Zombie Island of Dr Ned is an extremely satisfying and often hilarious campaign. It's also substantial, tallying up at about 5-8 hours completion time depending on the scaleable difficulty.
