Oh my god. Being a borderlands fan from the start this game has everything you know and love from the series! The presequel is exquisite... different at the start but gets so much better after you get going. And you can play with 4 friends splitscreen or online!

You might remember, so very long ago, that I reviewed Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (TPS). Oh wait, that wasn't very long ago, now was it? Six months ago there was a lot of complaining about TPS not coming out on the latest gen of consoles.

Lots of content | More shooty than Destiny; much more looty than Destiny

Rushed port | Too soon after release

As famed gun merchant and narrator Marcus Kincaid would say, Borderlands is about stories: tales of villains and antiheroes, of weapons and treasure, and of course, of mysterious vaults safeguarding fantastic riches…or unspeakable horror. So the legends go, at least.

The best Borderlands has looked on a console; Side-splitting humor provided by a memorable cast of characters; Handsome Jack is both amusing and frightening; Low-gravity combat is a fun new take on an old recipe

Some missions lack proper pacing; The Pre-Sequel occasionally chugs during peak moments

Borderlands, as a franchise, has certainly nailed the art of the opening cutscene. The original may have only opened on a bus, but it set the tone for the kind of lighthearted space western the game was.

Some unfortunate technical problems distract from what is otherwise a very generous compilation, and an entirely legitimate alternative to Destiny.

Excellent value for money, with a bewildering array of DLC; Graphics look much better at a higher resolution and split screen co-op is a very welcome new feature

Lots of texture pop-in both games, and serious frame rate problems in The Pre-Sequel; Gunplay was never great, especially compared to Destiny

This game is now quite old as it is basically a PS3 port onto PS4. Graphics arent amazing but gameplay is fun. For the amount i paid, i dont think this game was worth it.

If you've never played borderlands it's well worth your time. I play this with my wife and has excellent co-op. It struggles with some frame rate issues but if you can look past that I can't fault the game.

This is a great game if u love the series and it is easy to get into I have spent many hours on this game and it is always better with a friend

If it weren't for some minor technical issues, The Handsome Collection would be the ultimate Borderlands package. Mostly ultimate's pretty good, though.

It's the most Borderlands; Still a ton of fun

Not much new for Borderlands die-hards; Unfortunate technical quibbles
