    If you’re looking for something to fill the gap between the inevitable current-gen iteration of the Borderlands franchise, albeit with a much stronger focus on characterisation and story, then Tales from the Borderlands will more than satisfy your desire.

    With each new entry, Telltale Games seems to learn even more about how to keep you waiting impatiently for their next game. Tales from the Borderlands is one of its finest titles so far, combining great characters with a good narrative and unforgettable moments.

    A funny, thrilling, quietly subversive take on the well-worn Telltale formula - this feels like a genuine step forward for the genre but, more importantly, it’s good fun, almost constantly.

    Legacy concerns still plague this game like they have been doing for the last half-decade. However, dialogue options feel the most cohesive they've ever been and the combat adds a few new wrinkles while fixing what didn't work before.

Game ful ofl crazynes and fun turned into a mass effect with toilet humor. like i now another setting and all of that. But this game is in the SAME UNIVERSE, SAME TIME LINE. But nah, bro. Lets do a stupid game what is no longer borderlands. No action not fun, only sve or not save, jump or not jump, poop or kill. Maybe Tale Tale could do not a stupid guy from rich planet, and send him to planet pandora. The game was cool, if there was a story about civilians or crazy dudes. Not about ric hstupid and weak gays with mania of money. Tale Tale, work better, think more wide… Full Review »

    This easily one of Telltales best. Have to admit I'm not a huge Borderlands fan but this game has hit the mark for me as far as story tellingThis easily one of Telltales best. Have to admit I'm not a huge Borderlands fan but this game has hit the mark for me as far as story telling and overall enjoyment is concerned.
