    Claptrap ends the Borderlands saga on a high note, offering even more quirky, crazy questing in creative environments. Not as lengthy as Knoxx, Claptrap is more creatively diverse, unafraid to deliver wacky fun. The collectible achievements require hours of fighting the final boss, which is either annoying or fun depending on your perspective (fun for me).

The ending quest is like a trip down memory lane, bringing the entire Borderlands experience back to the start (literally) in a very clever and strangely poignant way. The lack of fast travel (like all the DLCs) knocks the score to an 8. Still, Claptrap is good times and a great final step toward Borderlands 2.… Expand

    Best DLC of all the 4, but i might be a little biased here cos i love claptraps :D I only didnt really like how they resurrected the old enemies over and over, and grinding the stuff that drops from claptraps was a lil tedious too. Overall, it was my favorite but loved them all

    I'm surprised at the lowish score that this DLC has received. (I do believe in my 8 rating, though, I"m not "balancing out for lower ratings").

    I consider this the best of the 4 DLC for Borderlands 1. Fun, interesting quests, a good story, satisfying battles, good rewards, etc. This DLC feels like an extension of the core game, whereas each of the other 3 feel somehow different.

The primary reason I gave the core game a 10 and this only an 8 is because of a very confusing map and because, like the rest of the DLC, it doesn't incorporate the teleport system to easily move from one area to another.

    Definitely worth the purchase if you enjoy the core game.    … Expand

    My favorite of the DLCs. Good length, decent amount of quests and collectibles. The story is good and best of all there were no bugs/glitches that i could find.

    "Claptrap’s New Robot Revolution" DLC for Borderlands falls somewhere in between "The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned" and "The Secret Armory of General Knoxx" in terms of enjoyment, at least in my opinion. Undoubtedly, it surpasses "Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot" by a significant margin.

    An average slice of Borderlands. [Christmas 2010, p.103]

    Claptrap's New Robot Revolution is a bit of a letdown. There are no memorable moments here, and is nowhere near as good as Mad Moxxi's or General Knoxx add-ons.

    Claptrap's New Robot Revolution is still Borderlands and I still enjoyed it immensely. Yes, the environments, missions and bosses were too repetitive from what we have seen already, and the loot was not satisfying, but Borderlands never needs much help to be entertaining.
