About the Game


The main difference between the original releases of these games and this collection is the tweaks to resolution and graphics. These features have been updated with the latest technology, so gameplay flows smoothly with no lagging or glitching.

The games still feature all those traits that made them such big hits as standalone games: plenty of loot to be gathered, a quirky streak of humour running through the game, and a certain goofiness that offsets the more serious moments beautifully.

Borderlands 2 recap


The follow-on from the massively successful original game offered all the things that made the first game so good, with improvements to the bits that didn’t work so well, but also with the additions of really good things that you didn’t know you needed until the second game gave them to you!

Working your way across Pandora, you will find that much of the loot that you score is weaponry: but this is a very good thing as the game is gunfight and battle heavy and you will need all the fancy weaponry that you can find. Make sure you check out background items too: you can use the environment as well as your weapons to see off the opposition in the quirkiest ways with a bit of imagination!

When you defeat an enemy, he will drop all his loot and you can grab it all. There is a handy comparison tool so you can see at a glance if your current weapon is better or worse than the one on the ground and decide whether to swap them out or just stash theirs for later.

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel recap


Produced after Borderlands 2, this game gives us the action before the first couple of games, introducing Jack – villain of the later games – as a hero and following his journey from good guy to villain. His story is told with some sympathy and there is no clichéd beard-twirling, mwahaha evil that overtakes him: something that would make even the most forgiving player roll their eyes!

The game starts off fairly slow with time to look around and explore as you return to get your reward after completing a quest, or get to the next section on the map, but it does pick up the pace until you will be quite glad of that earlier quiet time to explore the terrain and spot ambush points and hiding places from which to ambush villains.

The four playable characters offer a wide range of skills and power-ups and the game will feel very different depending on which character you are using at the time

Fun Facts About Borderlands


  • Pandora, the games’ setting, is based on Australia and inspired by the Mad Max movies

  • Explore the caves at the far end of Frostburn Canyon and you will find one of the most powerful guns in the game, just lying in a puddle, waiting to be picked and used. This is a powerful weapon, available freely to any player to gets to the right place

  • Go on an easter egg hunt – the developers have left plenty of signs and hints about the whole series in every game. See how many you can spot as you play your way through Pandora

  • Listen to what your enemies say when you kill them, and you might learn a little more about Shakespeare! There are plenty of Shakespearian references in the game, from Hamlet’s ‘Good night, sweet prince’ to Romeo and Juliet’s ‘Rose by any other name…’

  • Borderlands: The Handsome Collection (Europe) for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    I have not much to say on these masterpieces. Truly, these games have been the ones I was spending most of my time on from the day they aired and I always end up going back on them once in a while. It will always find a way to make something funny or absurd while keeping that explosive side hahaha. Tbh I think I don't need to talk much on it, everyone knows Borderlands and how great they are (BL2 my favourite).

    I dont know whats the hype about ,I dont find it fun even with a friend. The jokes are dry , The story is pretty much stuff throw in and hoping for the best , bosses arent fun to deal with , more like annoying , Sad i wasted my money on this ,, Very boring , not a game for me.
    • Bad jokes
    • weird inventory system
    The 2 Games Were Amazing to Play On PC Instead Of The Xbox 360 Back in the Day! Totally worth it for all the DLC's.

    Honestly, These Game Are Better With Friends. So If Your All Looking For A Fun Co-op Game Than This Is One Of The Best Choices Because How Much You Can Replay The Game. If You Completed It On One Character. There's Other to Try Out And Different Playstyles Depending On Your Skill Tree. And Plus You Can Always Farm Bosses With Your Friends And Have A Good Time.

    Thanks for Reading This Review. Have A Great Day! :)
    • Great Story
    • All DLC's
    • Replayable
    • So Much Stuff To Find (Guns,Class Mod's ect.)
    • Going to Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode Can Take A Good While
    • Have To Change Weapons Due To Levels
    • The Pre-Sequal haha
    it is a fantastic game with a lot of content that is very creative and funny the graphics are fantastic even though the game is a bit old by now but it has aged really well and still is one of the best games ever made.
    Super jeu en multi comme en solo. Beaucoup d'easter eggs a trouver et certain sont difficiles a trouver. De plus la phase de farm pour se préparer aux boss Génial ! Une chose à farmer ? Les armes légendaires qui sont assez dures a obtenir
