Keep wondering what that "Challenge Completed" text is that keeps popping up? Borderlands has a secondary set of achievements called challenges. These actually reward you with more than some gamerscore, XP! See below for the list of challenges, or you can find them in-game by tabbing over in your quest log.

Want your Brick to go faster? It's easy! Just go berserk, hit the menu, then when you return you will have canceled your berserk, but not the speed bonus! This only works as host unfortunately. Check the video out to see it in action.

Backpack getting a little too heavy? Starting your own legendary shop? Well you're going to need somewhere to store your rainy day legendaries, can't be carrying all that precious cargo around on your main, now can you? Well make a mule! Just create a new character, load a co-op game with both your main character and your new level 1 character and give the level 1 the items you want to store. It's as simple as that. If you want a really epic bank, you might want to get some more slots ...

Simply exit to the menu and reload once you hit them and repeat.

Game Tip: Grenade Jump

While this could be considered relatively useless for practical purposes, the fact that there is grenade jumping in the game's physics is interesting information. Try it out next time you are waiting for your teammates to get out of the freaking menu, and you want to get on top of that otherwise inaccessible rooftop. Looks like it works best with sticky nades, best tried with low-power grenades, as the power doesnt affect how high you can jump, but does affect how much you're going to hurt you...
Game Tip: Fast Travel in Playthrough 2

When Fast Traveling in Playthrough 2, you will notice that most areas are unlocked from the start. This can be very helpful to speed your way to later areas. For instance once the Vault was ready to be encountered, I simply fast-traveled right to the end-boss, instead of trekking through multiple areas and enemies. There was also a neat glitch when I did this. The cinematic had a gun reticle enabled, and I could switch weapons and shoot invisible bullets at the center of the screen. Useless...
