Usually whenever there’ a Game of the Year Edition of a game coming, I get to moan about it said game not actually being anybody’s game of anything. Not today. Our actual game of the year from 2012, Borderlands 2 is getting just such a thing, to the surprise of absolutely nobody.
That’s the word of IGN, who got the information from an unnamed Gamestop employee. that’s usually reason enough to pass this off as nonsense – but honestly, who doesn’t think there’s a Borderlands 2 GOTY edition coming?
Apparently the thing will contain all of the DLC released to date, which includes Creature Slaughter Dome, Psycho Pack, Captain Scarlett And Her Pirate’s Booty, Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt, Mister Torgue’s Campaign Of Carnage, Tiny Tina’s Assault On Dragon Keep, Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade and Mechromancer Pack. Nearly all of that was included in the game’s season pass.
there’s more DLC for the game on the way, in the form of some Headhunter packs and TK Baha’s Bloody Harvest, bringing that crippled bad-ass from the original game back to the series.
If you haven’t already bought and played the hell out of Borderlands 2, well..well then we just can’t be friends. You can make amends though – by picking this up when it becomes available. No info on release date just yet – but the Borderlands 1 GOTY edition came out pretty much a year after the game first shipped – so expect this within the next few months.

Whoever controls Tiny Tina, controls borderlands 2. Whoever controls borderlands 2,controls the universe.

I always knew Ashly Burch was going places (HAWP) but I never expected her bro Anthony to be such a good game writer (Borderlands 2):)

I don’t have Borderlands 2 yet… got Borderlands 1 GOTY a few months ago and been jamming that with my bro-in-law for hours on end every weekend since… almost finished (alas don’t think we’ll complete large challenge on Mad Moxxi’s Underdome, or Crawmerrax) … nice to know after a holiday away from Pandora can buy Borderlands 2 GOTY and not have to worry with all that DLC stuffs

Also got Borlderlands 1 a few months ago, and haven’t regretted it one bit. Took me a long time to kill Crawmerax, with a group of 4 random people. Cant wait to get Borderlands 2 GOTY edition. What platform are you playing on?

Playing on PS3, haven’t played online yet… still not got ADSL so been playing split-screen (luckily bro-in-law has big tv !)
Pretty excited to get BL2 and ADSL together over christmas holidays… nice way to spend my 3 week shut down 🙂 lol

Still need to finish Borderlands 1 GOTY, but made the mistake of getting Borderlands 2 just after that and got distracted by BL2 hehe… now I’ll be able to trade my BL2 (and a couple other games) in for a the GOTY and save MILLIONS!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
(EDIT: I don’t have the DLC’s yet)

“Surpise” I’m still not going to get it. Don’t see the appeal in either of the games

Do you have Diabllo 3? Just surprised as this shoot and loot pisses all over that.
I also never understood 1 but I suppose you have to play with a party of friends to really understand the appeal. But I found I actually enjoyed the SP and the leveling up was addictive. But it all means nothing if you cant bring your character on-line and KICK or HELP kick ass all over Pandora.

I played the first game so much that I ruined the second for myself. Gave it some time and when I eventually felt like it again, well, it was even better.

Do you want to know where the term “Clap” comes from?
Well, when there is pus coming out of your man parts, men tend to want to get rid of it, so they would slap the sides of the shaft together to get the pus to shoot out. Basically, they would “clap” their hands, with their tackle in between.
Round of applause anyone?
