This game is worth playing through once for the story or if you're OCD drives you to squeeze every achievement from your purchase but apart from that the PreSequel has nothing to offer a fan of Birderlands 2. The environments are bland places you don't want to be and the voice acting is highly questionable. Apart from adding a new type class, there are no new weapons so you are playing the same loot pool from borderlands 2. A poorly conceived money-maker that has several flaws. The handsome collection falls down in the PreSequel however. Highly polished graphically and just as slick mechanically.īorderlands 2 is a superb game from start to finish with a decent story, music, combat mechanics and a decent random loot generator. Borderlands 2 is a classic already and benefits from the higher frame rate the new consoles can provide. Great package with both games for a good price.
The only downsides are it doesn't include Borderlands 1 and you need a day and a half to install and update (I believe the pre-sequels update was the largest at 19GB) but what game doesn't take at least a day to install nowadays? Luckily they included our favourite 'Kick Player' player tab for those nuisance players. Not the games fault, that's just gamer etiquette. Be prepared for loot grabs and players who don't understand a simple mission like 'don't shoot this guy' if you do play online. Made a few decent friends that didn't loot hoard, rush through missions or constantly try to leave an area, but those players seem very rare lately. I spent hours playing multiplayer on the original version. Personally I prefer to play it single player. what more could you ask for.īoth games are suitable for Single Player or Multiplayer. You also get to go to the moon, find hidden dark secrets, run into electric fences at the request of Claptrap and bond with companions.
Plus when you finish it, you get to play it all over again this time as a Badass with more loot and harder enemies. Talking/Screaming guns, crazy missions, lots of foes to defeat and plenty of missions/side quests to keep you occupied. I love everything about the Borderlands franchise.
