Tales from the Borderlands: A Telltale Games Series

A by the numbers Telltale game dealing with one of my favorite video game franchises. I really enjoyed it! Wish they'd done more.

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Tales from the Borderlands: A Telltale Games Series" (2014) is a pretty fun adventure game. It is more like a movie or animation as you don't really interact that much in this game. You can sometimes move, sometimes interact and answer, but the star of this game is story and storytelling. Voice acting was great, animation was good and music was great - i loved opening titles of each and every chapter - they were great.

Overall, "Tales from the Borderlands" can be sometimes uneven and dragging, but it always is fun and funny adventure. There is a plenty of good humor here as well as great writing. All in all this is a fun game, glad that i tried it got trough it.

For years, the art style kept me from the borderlands game series. However, that didn't stop me from downloading a free episode of Tales From the Borderlands(come on, it was free). I don't think I had played ten minutes before I knew I'd be purchasing the full game, and when I recognized the iconic voice acting of Putty (aka Patrick Warburton) from Seinfeld, there was no turning back. I had to play this game, and I had to play it now. Absolutely the best video game script, and delivery of said script, that I have ever come across. If I could pre-order the sequel now, I would(and I have never pre-ordered a game before). But I can't/couldn't, so in stead, I bought all the other borderlands games.... Because Tales of the Borderlands is a beautiful masterpiece.

Easy 10 out of 10.

So, I've never played Borderlands before. I saw the game for free on the Xbox Live store, knew that a load of my friends loved the game, and thought why the hell not?.

Safe to say, I loved this game. It only took me about an hour and a half to play the first episode through (and hey, I only died once, which I think is pretty damn good). This game is addicting, and thoroughly enjoyable.

Honestly, I'm amazed at the quality of the game; now then, I have seen game play of Borderlands and I was stunned that Telltale managed to have the quality at the same standard as their other games – but still in the same unique Borderlands style.

The game itself is easy enough to understand, and the two characters you play as (Fiona and Rhys) are fun to play as – and often, Fiona's sassy remarks left me in stitches. I had to pause the game at one point to go wipe my face of tears.

The first episode of the game is, currently, free on the Xbox Live store and I really suggest you go and download it. The game is a wonderful one, and it even tugged on my heartstrings at one point (and my friends call me heartless due to the content I write!)

It's well written, funny, and the story is thoroughly enjoyable. A solid 10/10 for this game, I didn't even notice the lag – there is one part I noticed where Vaughn is talking, but his lips don't move, and I think that happens a few times, but really, you don't notice that much.

For achievement hunters – this is an easy one. An hour and a half play through gets you 200G (20G; 30G; 20G; 20G; 30G; 30G; 50G) over 7 achievements – just playing the game achieves you all seven.

I can't wait for my next pay check so I can grab the season pass and play through it all. What are you waiting for? Go and try it.

Never seen a better action game that is interactive with such an art style, great story, characters and dialog, it was a fun funny action/drama video game with badass moments and soundtrack.
