    Just when I had thought that I was all Borderlanded out,this arrives.With an improved framerate and a literal ton of bonuses,this upgrade cannot be ignored if your're a fan.

    Bozos give this a negative review because it doesn't meet some EXACTING standard that they don't even apply to themselves in life. Two games and all the DLC for one price. Your diaper is full and your homework is due. Make a change.

    What should i say about this...
    At first i like to tell to everyone who is complaining about the missng Borderlands 1 , this right here is enough material for a full price.
    It looks quite a bit better than before, and with all those DLC, there is so much to do.
    10/10 is not enough, this is a Must-Buy Collection everyone should have. :)

    That games was awesome on PC, but unplayable on PS3 and Vita because of bad FOV and FPS. With high resolution and good FPS this game become fully playable on consoles! Pre-Sequel is not good as B2, but hope they will fix everything and make B3 truly awesome!

Unfortunately, what you will find in the presquel is what appears to be utter lack of effort and creativity.

Borderlands: The Handsome Collection is the answer to that. You get Borderlands, Borderlands 2, All the DLC for both games, and The Pre Sequel. That for a good value and they are all HD Remastered versions made for nextgen consoles. Seriously, I loved it, it was like a wet dream for me. I love the characters, story and the brilliant shooter mechanics. It was a privilege to get back to Pandora and the Moon and blow **** up and grind for loot. I spent more than 50 hours in Borderlands 2 and to do that on PS4 again, but in a better condition.....Unbelievably Awesome. I loved it. If you haven't experienced Borderlands before, these two versions are the best way to play them currently. With all the awesome DLC, 3 full games, remastered. This is a Borderlands lover's dream and you should play it if you have a PS4. Totally worth it. Gearbox hits the right notes each time with a release.… Expand

    These are high quality remakes of great games, that also happen to include a TON of DLC for the price of one game. If you also take into account the sheer amount of game play to be had hours-wise, this is a steal. Especially if you haven't already played the originals. Hard to argue with that for 60 bucks.

    Probably the most fun to be had on a next gen console. This game gets everything right. The graphics may not have the resolution and fidelity as Destiny, but the art direction is better.

The acting and voice overs in Borderlands blow every other game out of the water (especially Peter Dinklage's monotonous droning on in Destiny.) Didn't realize this was gonna be an anti-Destiny rant when I started - and frankly, I LIKE Destiny... but Borderlands is better in just about every way. It's easier to get into a multiplayer game unlike certain aspects of Destiny which just don't work for lone wolf types looking to get into a game with strangers. Overall, there's just way more creativity involved in Borderlands; the art, the writing, the acting, the guns - oh, man, the guns! Overall, an absolutely essential title for every next gen console owner.… Expand

    It's everything you love about Borderlands, now on your PS4! I never had the chance to play the pre-sequel, making this a fantastic purchase. 4-player co-op runs beautifully, super happy to finally have a co-op game on PS4.

    Giving a review score of ZERO means you think the game literally is unplayable garbage to the max. So if you have been ABLE to play a game for more than 1 continuous minute without a crash...then it at least deserves a 1.

    First of all, for the amount of money you're paying, its like stealing. I almost feel bad about buying this game. Not only do you get all the DLC for Borderlands 2 but also the Season Pass for upcoming DLC for The Pre-Sequal. Adding hundreds of hours to the already jam-packed-with-things-to-do game. This is a must buy if you haven't played a borderland game.

    Listen. Borderlands 2 was awesome. Pre-sequel was....ok. Now you get both, completely remastered a d ALL DLC for BOTH games. (That's a crap ton of content.) Plus a decent story. Buy this instead of that **** known as Destiny.

    This is a great Value, there is not another game out there that can compete with the amount of content here, its well over 200+ hours and that just the first play through. I already owned the previous games on the 360, you can transfer your saves to the XBone, which is great so you can continue your characters. the same applies to ps3 to ps4.

    It's wild fun to play. a large game already then adding 4 large DLCs onto it has made this world deep, complex, and interesting.

    The replay value alone is insane. its been roughly 7 years since it came out on last gen consoles and still to this day I still play it quite a bit.

    I’m giving this a 10 mainly because of borderlands 2. Borderlands 2 is the far better game with months and months of side quests and missions to do. I put 8 months into BL2 and 1 month into borderlands the presequel. I enjoy the presequel but there isn’t enough to do or kill to make you want to grind to become stronger. Both graphics still hold up well today.
