Tales from the Borderlands is a five part episodic game series from the creators of The Wolf Among Us and The Walking Dead: A Telltale Games Series. Set on the unforgiving world of Pandora after the events seen in Borderlands 2, this is a story full of Borderlands’ trademark humor, following two adventurers on their quest for greatness.
You’ll play as Rhys, a Hyperion ‘suit’ with dreams of being the next Handsome Jack, and Fiona, a Pandoran con artist looking to score her biggest ever swindle. Thrown together as unwilling partners in an adventure to recover cash they both think is theirs, their journey will take you on a wild ride where gangsters, bandit lords, and Vault Hunters are just some of the obstacles you’ll encounter, in this new take on the award-winning universe created by Gearbox Software.

What's this like? Quite tempted with it being a telltale game at this price

It's an epic game, if you've played borderlands and know what the story is, this is an epic side story to the main game.

I've played a bit of 1+2 but not as far as finish the game, if it's still in stock when I get home, I think I'll take a punt at it

No you'll have Tod download them but there's no code. Using the disk you'll be able to download them.

Its well worth it, quite honestly its the funniest and wackiest telltale game. Probably my favourite one out of them personally although the wolf among us is a close second.

Nice for UK retail. Currently $2.99 on the US PSN store though

But what you got to remember is currency limitations on US/CA PS Stores, i.e. For Canada you have to buy 20 or 50 CA$ top ups, meaning it's stuck in limbo in your account until there's something else you want

That's been my feeling in the past week after each purchase and looking at the next deal...

This is very true, and worth noting.
US PSN Flash sale is expected tomorrow though and minimum credit is only $10, coupled with the '10% off code' for the US store that's floating around

I think it's around £1.79 on the Canadian store too, that's what I was referencing when I said about 20/50 top ups :smiley:

It's a Telltale game. They're not full price to begin with and they tend to drop in price quickly as they usually always have a new game or two out.
And yea, it's excellent if you like these styles of games. Also dont worry if you dont know anything about Borderlands, or even if you *do* know Borderlands and didn't like the main games, this really is different enough that it doesn't matter. It's funnier than the main games and obviously the 'gameplay' isn't remotely similar. Though if you do like Borderlands, you'll get a bit more out of this than some others, too.

So definitely, really good game.
