omega64: It mostly was in single player. The Knox dlc is pretty good though.
Most of the fun of Borderlands lies in the second game.
Both BL and BL2 were great. BL2 was indeed better, but BL was still great.

viperfdl: Which is, as far as I know, more consolized and a rather bad PC-game.

omega64: It is? O_o
I mean the interface isn't all that good but it's not like it was good in the first game.
I never played it myself, but what I remember from reviews was, that it is oriented to gamecontrollers. Nothing for m+k - players like me.

I've never used a controller for Borderlands 1, 2 or the Pre-sequel and haven't encountered any issues.
I want you to remember later that I cautioned you, offered you help and showed restraint as you harmed me.
Why does this guy phrase his tweets like he's being cyberbullied?

I really don't like this publisher. Acquiring an IP doesn't mean you need to remove all of its games from circulation so you can remaster it a second time. That's just a ridiculous strategy to attract attention.

But... money!
Sadly, Gearbox has went to shit ever since they botched Duke Nukem Forever. I want to give them a benefit of the doubt on that one, since they supposedly just continued with what they had. Of course they could of made it better still.

The biggest thing that I recall that showed their true colors is when they went back on their word and cancelled Duke Nukem Reloaded, for the stupidest reason.

Borderlands is probably their best modern games, but I expected Borderlands to be much better. Sadly I became bored with that real quick even with coop. Great characters though. I'll give them that.

If you like the characters try Tales from the Borderlands.
Great writing and characters without the Borderlands gameplay.

Lord_Kane: You are all imagining Duke Nukem 3D completely rewritten by Anthony Burch.
Duke loses his WiiU edition.........

Someone needs to clone Duke and GPL him :PPPP
op link post #10:

"Gearbox is actively trying to kill HTTKC now, I just haven't made much of a public statement about it yet. They seem to think they're above the law and that certain facets of our judicial system regarding contracts just don't apply to them. They claim the contracts for HTTKC are invalid, but upon my request for a written statement as to their invalidity they refuse to state why. I've been trying to get them to tell me for the last two months and they're just dicking me around and doing anything they can to avoid giving me an answer. Then they tell me they're unwilling to discuss the contracts unless I have a lawyer, so I have my lawyer contact them, only to have them waste another entire month of time before making vague legal threats and telling me they now refuse to have a discussion involving lawyers. It's complete nonsense and I suspect we will end up in court. "

i really, really hope TerminX wins and kicks pitchfords ass in court.

wolfsrain: ...Just look what they did with Homeworld Remastered...They've claimed that the code for Cataclysm was lost and they replaced the YES music with something else in order to avoid to pay more money...And that is only the tip of the iceberg....
is the original version, that is bundled with the remastered, lacking the music too?

Gearbox suing EDuke32 devs post#3:

"I know the EDuke32 crew quite well, they're pretty cool guys who have a plenty of professional experience with Duke3D. TerminX was contracted by 3DR to make Hail to the King Collection before Gearbox acquired the Duke3D rights during the Bombshell/DN Mass Destruction lawsuit debacle.

That contract didn't expire or become invalid when the property switched hands. Gearbox is pulling a lot of dirty, crooked shit as of late (Well, when aren't they? But this is serious, mainly contract fraud.), and trying to screw and bully anyone who touches the IP, even if they do so legally.

I suggest anyone who's curious to read all posts by TerminX in the thread, it's pretty revealing just how sickeningly low GBX is willing to go, not just on a business, but personal level.

(Hail to the King Collection was going to be an Android port of EDuke32, with full native ports of Duke Nukem: Total Meltdown and Duke Nukem 64 running under the engine, along with all the previous expansions. It was to have support for Bluetooth and USB controllers, and better touch controls than previous ports, as far as I'm aware.)"

The original Homeworld bundled with the Remastered is also missing the music, as the license expired and Gearbox wasn't willing to pay to reaquire it. Only the Yes parts are missing, though. And that's why everyone loves copyright and DRM:(

Yeah that one was the one everyone knows about. That was definitely huge. Oops! I should of clarified the DN: Reloaded was the first main blunder for me (and chronologically). I do want a good Alien game. The funny thing is that I actually want to try that pile of turd though haha. Too bad there's not even that possibility for DN.

I would probably put UBI and Gearbox being the worst dev/pubs I can think of without putting any effort. Oh! Microsoft for not bringing Ori and the Blind Forest to GoG.. and creating another damn Market Place, which would be okay if they don't lock their games to it like *cough* Blizzard. EA has improved but is still up there. The sad thing is they used to be great.
You know why I want to be rich as fuck? Because I haven't bought a single Gearbox game in my life and I would love the thought of another metric fuckton of my money NOT being spent on Gearbox games.

The world of gaming would be an infinitely better place without Randy Prickford and his bunch of shitheels...
Randy Pitchfork, king of arseholes, prince of twats.

This man is despised by everyone now and he knows it damn well, so I still wonder why he can not be more humble, or at least stop being a fucking prick. He is the reason why Aliens: Colonial Marines ended they way it did, and then had the audacity to put the blame on Sega, even though the money that was supposed to go for it went to Borderlands.
I guess in the end a prick is always a prick no matter what!
