Gearbox has addressed a large issue in the PS3 version of Borderlands, just in time for the European release.
North American gamers - who can already buy the role-playing shooter - had complained that the PS3 version was not displaying players' online friends properly, virtually grinding online games to a halt.
Gearbox responded this morning: "We are very pleased to report that using PSN friends lists with the game should now work properly for all PS3 customers. The fix has been released invisibly and should work automatically for all PSN users on the PS3 platform.
