  • ‘Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel’ Coming This Fall

    Despite developing games such as Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens: Colonial Marines, Gearbox has cultivated a prized place in gamer hearts through its Borderlands games. Borderlands 2 was one of 2012’s most popular games and has been featured in numerous bundles and deals throughout the past two years. Most recently the game is set to appear on Sony’s PS Vita.

    This week 2K Games and Gearbox officially announced the next game in the Borderlands series. Titled Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, the title will give players a bit more back story into just what was going on in Borderlands 2.

    Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel will be released this fall for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. No PlayStation 4 or Xbox One releases have yet been announced and 2K.

    The Pre-Sequel is set in the time between Borderlands and Borderlands 2. Players will explore the moon, named Elpis, orbiting the planet Pandora (the setting of the other two Borderlands games) and fill in multiple story gaps.

    Players will step into the shoes of one of four new playable characters recognizable from the previous Borderlands games. There’s Athena (“The Gladiator”), Wilhelm (“The Enforcer”), Nisha (“The Lawbringer”), and Claptrap. Yes, the Claptrap will be a playable character in The Pre-Sequel.

    The game’s story revolves around Handsome Jack, the villain of Borderlands 2. As players fight with and for Handsome Jack they will witness the character transform into the hilarious, evil egomaniac that he is known as in the previous game.

    Being a Borderlands game, The Pre-Sequel will feature all the co-op shooting action seen in the previous games. New enemies and new weapons will, of course, be part of the game. Entirely new weapons types and elemental damage types have been announced. Laser-based weapons and freezing “Cryo” weapons are just two of those.

    In addition to the expansion elements from previous games, The Pre-Sequel will feature a nifty new play mechanic. Being set on a moon, players will experience a lesser gravitational pull. This means greater mobility and even huge double-jumps enabled by oxygen-powered jetpacks.

  • Borderlands 2 PS Vita Bundle Launches May 6, Standalone Game Hits May 13

    Earlier this year, Sony announced that the new slim PS Vita would be launching this Spring alongside a version of Borderlands 2 built just for the device. Well, Sony has held to their part of the bargain and announced that both will be hitting retail next month.

    Sony announced today that the Borderlands 2 PS Vita bundle will be hitting stores on May 6 for $199.99. The bundle includes the new slimmer PS Vita, a copy of Borderlands 2 on the Vita and an 8GB memory stick. Sony also notes that the new PS Vita includes 1GB of built in memory so you’ll be able to store your save games on the internal memory instead of the memory stick. That should leave a bit more space to save a few more PSP and PS Vita games on the memory stick.

    As for Borderlands 2 on the Vita, the game is a straight port of the console and PC versions. Sony says that no content from the main game has been cut in the transition to the Vita. They even managed to squeeze in some of the DLC, including Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty and Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage. The Mechromancer and Psycho character classes will also be available from the start. As for the other DLC campaigns, nothing has been mentioned. It’s assumed that it will be released as post-release content.

    The game also features cross play support so you’ll be able to transfer your saves from Borderlands 2 on the PS3 to the PS Vita version and back again. If you’re one of those people who travels a lot, this is undeniably good news for you.

    If you already own a Vita and just want Borderlands 2, the standalone game will launch a week later on May 13.

  • Borderlands 2 Declares Itself Game of the Year in New Video

    We’re nearing the holiday season and publishers are beginning to wring the last few sales out of recent big game releases. Already The Elder Scrolls Anthology and Dishonored: Game of the Year Edition are tempting collectors and gamers shrewd enough to wait a year to buy games and their add-on content at a lower price.

    Now 2K Games and Gearbox have done the same with Borderlands 2. The Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Edition was released this week enticing gamers with more loot than ever.

    Sure, declaring a title “Game of the Year” in October is pretentious, but Gearbox has done an admirable job of supporting the game for over one year now. The new collection includes an impressive amount of content that was released post-launch, including all four DLC campaigns, the two added character classes, and a whole host of skins, upgrades, and add-ons, including a “Golden Key.”

    The new “Celebration” video for the self-declaration does a good job of highlighting all the best parts of Borderlands 2 and its DLC, while providing a bit more Claptrap Schadenfreude:

  • Check Out This Short Film Based On Borderlands 2’s Latest DLC

    Borderlands 2 is getting some quality content later this year, but its latest DLC – Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep – is nothing to scoff at. In fact, the story of the vault hunters playing a game of Bunkers and Badasses with Tiny Tina as the DM seems to have really resonated with gamers. So much so that Gearbox made a short film based on it.

    2K and Gearbox released a short film today called +5 To Punching. It serves as a prologue to Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep. As expected, it’s pretty funny. Check it out:

    This isn’t the first time that Gearbox has made a short film based on its Borderlands franchise, but it’s now starting to look like a trend. Does that mean that we might get a full-length Borderlands film sometime in the future? It’s not likely, but never say never. After all, Hollywood has started to mine video games once again looking for a potential hit. The Borderlands franchise presents a world that could easily work in film as these shorts so expertly testify.

    If you liked the what you saw above, you’ll get more of it in Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep. It’s available now on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, and will be included in the Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Edition launching on October 8.

  • Borderlands 2 Game Of The Year Edition Announced, Launches October 8

    Borderlands 2 was easily game of the year for many gamers around the world last year. The co-op shooter took the tight gameplay from the original and injected a lot more personality into it. It’s received plenty of support this year in the form of DLC packs, and now all of those DLC expansions will be included with the base game.

    2K and Gearbox Software announced today that Borderlands 2 will be getting a game of the year edition. This special edition of the game will be available October 8 for $60 on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. A PS Vita version was only just recently announced and we have no idea which DLC, if any, will be included with the portable version of the title.

    “For us and for fans, the love for Borderlands 2 has been nothing short of spectacular, so it’s natural for us here at Gearbox Software to want everyone else to have a chance to experience the best-selling game and its most valuable expansion content,” said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. “The Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Edition offers more value than ever before in one package, giving everyone an opportunity to become a legendary Vault Hunter, and join in the award winning mayhem and fun.”

    So, what do you get with the Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Edition? The title comes with every DLC pack released thus far, including the Premier Club content that was only available to those who pre-ordered the title last year:

  • Borderlands 2 Main Game
  • Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty
  • Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage
  • Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt
  • Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep
  • Creature Slaughter Dome
  • Gaige, the Mechromancer Character Class
  • Gearbox Gun Pack
  • Golden Key
  • Vault Hunter’s Relic
  • Krieg, the Psycho Character Class
  • Collector’s Edition Heads and Skins
  • Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 1

    • Even with all this content, gamers who pick up Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Edition can still look forward to getting more DLC later this year. Gearbox revealed at PAX Australia that it’s currently working on another level pack for Borderlands 2 that will increase the level cap to 72. It’s also working on another campaign DLC pack that brings back T.K. Baha from the first Borderlands.

  • Borderlands 2 Is Getting More DLC Later This Year

    It looked like Gearbox officially wrapped up Borderlands 2 in June with the release of Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep. After all, it was the last DLC update that was included as part of the season pass. As it turns out, however, Gearbox is going to keep delivering new content for the rest of this year as well.

    At its PAX Australia panel over the weekend, Gearbox announced that Borderlands 2 would be receiving two new DLC packs later this year. The first is called the Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2: Digistruct Peak Challenge. The pack will include all new weapons and enemies while also increasing the level cap to 72.

    The second DLC expansion will be called the Headhunter Pack, and it will bring T.K. Baha from the first Borderlands. The expansion will feature multiple missions that culminate in a boss fight against Jacque O’Lantern. 2K also teased in a subsequent press release that it would release more DLC packs with “uniquely-themed boss fights” throughout this year and next.

    Neither pack will be a part of the season pass as all of the content that was part of that pack has been released. Players will have to pay $5 for the Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2 when it’s released later this year. There’s been no price announced for the Headhunter Pack yet, but it will probably cost $10. It will also be released later this year.

    If you want to see more from Gearbox, 2K recently uploaded some highlights from the developer’s panel at PAX Australia:

    [h/t: Kotaku]

  • Homeworld Franchise Bought by Gearbox

    The bankruptcy and break-up of THQ is still having wide-ranging implications for the gaming industry. While many of the publishers who bought nearly-finished games in the auction are polishing up the titles for release, the future of some of the less popular game franchises that sold in January are a bit up in the air.

    One of the biggest acquisitions of the auction was Sega’s purchase of Relic Entertainment. Relic is a well-known developer of real-time strategy games such as the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series and Company of Heroes.

    Now, one of Relic’s first RTS games has been sold off by what’s left of THQ. Homeworld, considered a classic by RTS gaming fans has, been sold to Gearbox. The series uses three-dimensional battlegrounds where ships face off in outer space.

    Gearbox has stated that it intends to port Homeworld and Homeworld 2 for “today’s leading digital platforms,” which implies that the classic games could soon be coming to Steam (or possibly iOS and Android devices).

    The Gearbox announcement, in full:

    Gearbox Software has prevailed as the highest bidder in the acquisition of the Homeworld franchise from THQ. Brian Martel, Gearbox Software’s Chief Creative Officer, has great love and respect for Relic’s brilliant, fun and innovative game and personally spearheaded the acquisition.

    Brian intends as first priority to direct Gearbox’s interest to preserve and assemble the purest form of the original acclaimed and beloved games, Homeworld and Homeworld 2, with the intent of making them accessible on today’s leading digital platforms.

    Please visit the Gearbox Software Forums to share with us and Brian what you think should be done with Homeworld moving forward. And, please try to get our attention if you have capability and interest to join the effort in developing or enabling Homeworld’s future.

    Gearbox is the developer that found success last year with Borderlands 2. It is also the developer that found failure this year with Aliens: Colonial Marines. Hopefully Gearbox will treat the Homeworld IP with the care and attention it deserves.

  • Bug Hunt Is The First Planned DLC For Aliens: Colonial Marines, Will Be Out In March

    Aliens: Colonials Marines comes out tomorrow, and that means Gearbox and Sega will now be directing its attention towards DLC for the title. Sega outlined its plans over the weekend on how it intends to support the title throughout 2013.

    Sega says that Aliens: Colonial Marines will receive four DLC add-ons throughout 2013 that add more campaign and multiplayer content. The first of which is called Bug Hunt, and it features a cooperative multiplayer mode that has players taking down hordes of Xenomorphs across three new maps based on the Aliens film. The DLC is scheduled to arrive at the end of March.

    As for the other DLC add-ons, Sega says that everything will be out by the end of August of this year. You can preorder all of the DLC now as part of the season pass that gives players all four add-ons for $29.99. The content will be available separately as well, but it will apparently cost 40 percent more that way.

    The Season Pass is already available for preorder on Steam for 10 percent off. It will be available on Xbox Live and the PSN soon.

    There’s still no word on when the Wii U version of Colonial Marines will be made available, or if it will get the same offer of a season pass. The delayed release of the Wii U version may also mean that Gearbox will include the first DLC add-on for free with the Wii U version, or at least we can hope.

  • New Aliens: Colonial Marines Trailer Slows Down the Action

    The previews for Aliens: Colonial Marines have been a bit back and forth. By that I mean some of them make the game look like a thoughtful spinoff of the first three Alien movies with similarly creepy design (the alien hive preview), while others have made the game look like a mindless shooter that resembles all the action-heavy parts of James Cameron’s Aliens (the “Kick Ass” trailer).

    In that context it’s understandable that Alien and shooter fans alike may be wary of how the game will play. The latest trailer for the game, released today by Gearbox, attempts to split the difference. To do this, heavy action scenes similar to those in the “Kick Ass” trailer are set to some low-key instrumental music and given a few Zack Snyder-style slow-mo sequences. It’s reminiscent of the old Gears of War “Mad World” trailer, but with explosions and face-huggers.

    Whatever Aliens: Colonial Marines actually turns out to be, we’ll all find out next week when the game is released on February 12.

  • Aliens: Colonial Marines Multiplayer Trailer Released

    One of the best unfulfilled promises when it comes to Aliens games is good multiplayer where some players can take on the role of the xenomorphs. 2010’s Aliens vs. Predator did an okay job with the concept, but it still fell short of that ideal of worried, huddled marines slowly making their way through an alien-infested environment while other players wait for their opportunity to ambush them.

    Luckily for Aliens fans, there is always another game just around the corner, which means another opportunity for a new developer to get things right. Next week, Gearbox will release Aliens: Colonial Marines and show the world what it thinks an Aliens multiplayer mode should look like.

    A new multiplayer trailer for the game shows that at least some thought has gone into the experience. Colonial Marines will have access to a plethora of customizable weapons and explosives. Xenomorphs, on the other hand, will have 3 different classes to choose from: “soldier,” “lurker,” or “spitter.” Each class has customizable attacks, such as camouflage, disorienting smoke, or acid spit. The trailer even shows off a special class called the “boiler,” which can self-destruct its own head to rain acid onto its opponents.

  • Aliens: Colonial Marines Channels James Cameron In Latest Trailer

    Aliens: Colonial Marines is shaping up to be one of the best shooters of the year. Early previews have indicated that Gearbox Software “gets it” by making Xenomorphs the terrifying foe that they should be. You wouldn’t know that, however, if you only watch the latest trailer.

    In what’s called the “Kick Ass Trailer,” Sega shows off the more action packed sequences of Aliens: Colonial Marines while a gruff general narrates the events with stereotypical space marine pomp. There’s also a heavy dose of dubstep, because why not? It’s a marked departure from past trailers that highlighted the overwhelming odds the marines faced at the hands of the galaxy’s most effective killers. That being said, these marines are pretty kick ass.

    It should be obvious now that Aliens: Colonial Marines will be taking more after Aliens instead of Alien. Alien fans can only hope that Gearbox can nail the fear aspect of the Alien franchise alongside the bombastic action sequences the franchise has become more know for. Xenomorphs terrified me for the majority of my childhood and I would love to get that feeling back in a game. The original Aliens vs. Predator was able to do this by making the space marines woefully underpowered, but it seems that these marines are more than ready to take on the challenge of killing an entire planet’s worth of Xenomorphs.

    Aliens: Colonial Marines will launch on February 12 for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. The Wii U version does not have a release date yet.

  • Check Out The Aliens: Colonial Marines TV Spot

    I think we can all agree that Borderlands 2 was one of the best gaming experiences of 2012. Gearbox deserved all of the accolades it won for the game, and now the studio can rest easy knowing that its work is done, right? Well, that would be true if the studio wasn’t nearing completion on one of the most anticipated games of 2013

    On Monday, Sega released the TV spot for Gearbox’s take on one of the best sci-fi franchises to ever grace film – Alien. Aliens: Colonial Marines is set up as the proper sequel to Aliens and Alien 3 after Alien Resurrection failed to impress anybody. The game takes place on LV-426 – the setting of the original two films. The game will take after Aliens, however, as it will be more focused on action instead of scares.

    Aliens: Colonial Marines will probably be the first great shooter of 2013. It will also be interesting to see how Gearbox handled development on the Wii U as previous AAA action games, like Black Ops 2, were reportedly worse on Nintendo’s new console. Gearbox has spoke highly of the platform, however, and the extra time in development should make it a unique standout in the Wii U’s abnormally large launch window.

    Aliens: Colonial Marines will be available on Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Wii U on February 12.

  • Borderlands 2 “Big Game Hunt” DLC Out Now, With Trailer

    Gamers coming back to Borderlands 2 after finishing up with other holiday titles will be pleased to hear that Gearbox has released yet another DLC campaign add-on for the shooter.

    “Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt” begins with a relaxing hunting trip with Sir Hammerlock, which quickly falls apart as Professor Nakayama, a mad Hyperion scientist, makes trouble for the vault hunters. It will be up to players and their guns to help the scientist get over the death of Handsome Jack.

    Unlike other big titles, Gearbox’s Borderlands 2 expansions aren’t exclusive to the Xbox 360 for weeks before they hit other systems. The DLC will be available today for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

    As a side note, Gearbox has acknowledged that some Xbox 360 gamers have been getting errors when downloading the latest compatibility pack update. The developer stated that it is working with Microsoft to address the issue.

  • New Aliens: Colonial Marines Preview Shows Off the Alien Hive

    Sega and Gearbox this week released another sneak peek at the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines. This time, the eerie silence of a xenomorph hive onboard the U.S.S. Sulaco is shown off in all of its shiny glory. The art style was, quite obviously based on James Cameron’s Aliens.

    It appears, at least, that Gearbox has captured the look and feel of Aliens. Also, the story in the game’s campaign is a direct tie-in with the first three Alien movies. Whether or not it has managed to also provide that constant “I’m being hunted” sense of dread and despair is another question.

    Gearbox is the same developer who brought the gaming world Borderlands 2 – one of 2012’s best shooters – so it’s worth it to keep an eye on Aliens: Colonial Marines. The game is currently scheduled for a February 12 launch in the U.S.

  • Aliens: Colonial Marines is a Sequel to the First Three Movies, Shows Trailer

    Videogames based on the Aliens universe have been notoriously sub-par in the past. With Aliens: Colonial Marines, Gearbox is attempting to give the franchise a videogame it can finally be proud of.

    It remains to be seen whether the gameplay and design of the game will impress players, but it appears the developer has at least provided a relevant story. The new story trailer released over the holidays shows that the game is a direct sequel to the Aliens and Alien 3 movies.

    Players will take on the role of marines who are investigating the strange reappearance of the spaceship U.S.S. Sulaco, last seen orbiting the planet Fury 161 in Alien 3.

  • Borderlands 2 “Big Game Hunt” DLC Trailer Released

    All large publishers are selling pre-sale packages of future promised DLC for their triple-A titles, but too often some of those promised add-ons end up being rather sparse, or an odd amalgamation of features. Take, for example, the Xbox 360 exclusive DLC just released for Resident Evil 6, which only contains new multiplayer modes.

    Gearbox, then, deserves some credit for releasing a new character class and two new campaign add-ons in the three months since Borderlands 2‘s release.

    Today, the trailer for the third Borderlands 2 DLC was released. Titled “Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt,” the campaign add-on will take players on a big game hunt with the venerable Hammerlock. Of course, the outing is quickly disrupted by a Hyperion scientist who is still loyal to Handsome Jack and seeks revenge on the vault hungers.

    At the near-monthly DLC release pace Gearbox is keeping to, it won’t be long before fans of the game are throwing their money at the company, demanding a second season pass for more quality Borderlands 2 updates.

  • Borderlands 2 ‘Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage’ DLC, Trailer Released

    The talk of the gaming world may be Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Halo 4, and the Wii U, but Gearbox is still pumping out new content for Borderlands 2 at what appears to be a monthly pace.

    The newest DLC for Borderlands 2 is titled “Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage,” and will see players enter a tournament to defeat Torgue’s bandits. Players will have to find a sponsor for the tournament and fight off enemies in more traditional Borderlands 2 missions, though, so the entire DLC isn’t just arena fighting. Of course, there are also new guns, enemies, locations, and character customizations.

    The Torgue DLC is available today for $10 via the PlayStation Newtork or 800 Microsoft Points through Xbox LIVE. Players who purchased a Borderlands 2 Season Pass should be able to download now.

    As expected, the launch trailer for the new DLC shows that the new content will be heavy on the explosions. Also, the diminutive explosive expert Tiny Tina will be training players for their tournament appearance.

    In celebration of the new DLC, Gearbox Lead Writer for Borderlands 2 Anthony Burch is doing a Reddit AMA in the character of Mister Torgue. The thread is funny, though the caps throughout make it difficult to read.

  • Borderlands 2 DLC “Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage” Coming Next Week

    Gearbox may have kicked off the holiday gaming season early with the release of Borderlands 2, but the game developer isn’t slouching now that games such as Halo 4 and Call of Duty: Black Ops II have arrived. The company has already released one major DLC titled Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty (two if you count the Mechromancer add-on class).

    This week, Gearbox revealed the subject of its next DLC. Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage will see players enter a tournament and defeat Torgue’s bandits. However, a twist will put players into a more traditional Borderlands-type campaign for a bit. A new in-game currency will also be included, called “Torgue Tokens,” meaning all that cash players have saved up over the past few weeks will be pretty worthless for the new vending machines.

    The Echocast Twitter account, which had previously been tended to by Gaige the Mechromancer, has now been taken over by Mister Torgue:

    Judging by the type of weapons the Torgue company releases (they’re all explosive), the new DLC will almost certainly feature some nice explosions. This could mean a fan-favorite character from the main Borderlands 2 campaign, Tiny Tina, might be back to help the vault hunters create some mayhem.

  • Borderlands 2 DLC Trailer Reveals Sand Pirates

    Gearbox want to make sure gamers aren’t jumping off the Borderlands 2 bandwagon and playing any of the other fantastic games that are being released in the next few weeks. Already, the company challenged the launch of Dishonored by releasing the new Mechromancer pre-order downloadable content (DLC) class one week early.

    Tomorrow, Gearbox is releasing the first major DLC for Borderlands 2. Titled Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty, the DLC will feature new locations, a new story, a new vehicle (the sandskiff, which fires harpoons) new enemies. It will have – wait, you know what? It’s pirates. Borderlands 2 with pirates. Pirates in the desert, so, as Gearbox Game Designer Jon Hemingway says in the video below, they are “sand pirates.” Anyone familiar with the Borderlands series will know that the games’ trademark humor will shine through and there will be plenty of booty (loot) for the taking.

    IGN got the scoop on the upcoming DLC and the videos below show exactly what players can expect from the content. Gamers who can’t wait until tomorrow should study the videos closely and plan their assault on the pirate strongholds.

  • Borderlands 2 Mechromancer Released One Week Early

    Seeing the amazing trailers to the twisted humor of the game itself, it’s clear that Gearbox is having a lot of fun developing Borderlands 2. The company certainly hasn’t been slacking off, either.

    Today, Gearbox President Randy Pitchford announced that Gaige ,the Mechromancer DLC class for Borderlands 2, is now available – a full week before it was scheduled to launch. Pitchford made the announcement through his Twitter account:

    Any gamers who pre-ordered Borderlands 2 got access to the “Premiere Club” for the game and will have free access to the new class today. Those who didn’t pre-order will have to download the class as DLC for 800 Microsoft Points or for $9.99 on PC and the PlayStation Network.

    Before making the surprise announcement, Pitchford also revealed the skill tree for Gaige, which features a defensive tree, an elemental damage tree, and a tree that uses stacks of “Anarchy” to unleash different powers. Some backstory on the Mechromancer can be gleaned through the Echocast recordings released by Gearbox this past week.

    The only question that remains for gamers is whether they are yet so addicted to Borderlands 2 that they will begin leveling a new character rather than play Dishonored, which was also released today. What a dilemma. Joy-puking through Pandora is fun, but it doesn’t exactly scratch that itch for stealthy, subtle gameplay.

  • Borderlands 2 Mechromancer Class Teased in Videos

    Back at PAX East in April, Gearbox revealed that a fifth class would be joining the new vault hunters already revealed for Borderlands 2. Though not much was known at the time, we now know that the mechromancer will be named Gaige and that she is bonus downloadable content (DLC) for those who pre-ordered the game, and will be released on October 16.

    Gaige’s special powers will be derived from summoning a personal guardian robot named Deathtrap, or DT. This past week, her personality has also begun to take shape.

    Gearbox last week began releasing “Echocast” logs for the young vault hunter, exposing what her life was like before she left for Pandora. Unsurprisingly, it turns out she was a genius mechanic and scientist who created DT all by herself, though her speech patterns portray her as the same type of teenage girl who would make overly-excited YouTube video diaries. She also has a loving father, who tiredly puts up with her inventions and Echocasting.

    The first two recordings, seen below, are innocent enough, though I suspect subsequent installments will become darkly comic, as all such things in Borderlands 2 tend to.
