Borderlands: The Handsome Collection - XBOX One

Good for the price. Not the most advanced game as its been out for quite some time but definitely a fun game that will have you putting hours in on it.

It's a fun game runs smooth and puts both great borderlands on one disk. Including all the possible DLC you can play and both games. Worth the $60 and tons of hours of gameplay. I would definitely recommend picking this up for Xbox one or ps4.

Waited to buy the Pre-Sequel because I knew this collection was coming, it looks great on the next gen systems even if seeing it in 60 FPS is a little jarring at first. The addition of Borderlands 2 is a bargain here with all DLC included. Most importantly for the bundle, EVERYTHING ACTUALLY WORKS!!! (Halo developers please take notes)

This is next-generation Borderlands and a spectacular. I every game in the Borderlands family from the console to my Mac. So I had to buy the Handsome Jack Collection just to experience next-generation a.k.a. current generation console gaming. I am not disappointed in the least. The graphics look as good as they did on my Mac and a lot better than they did on my PS3 and Xbox 360. My favorite part of this update is how fast the game loads when you're switching areas. I do have a 7200 RPM hard drive in my PS4 and it's gone from 10 to 15 second load times to down to three or four second load times when you fast travel. This is great for farming bosses for loot. If you're new to the Borderland Series of give you a few tips. The game is basically about finding the best loot all the while engaging in a very wacky and humorous story. I would recommend playing Borderlands2 first and then playing The Pre-Sequel afterwards. Borderlands tips: I recommend playing as Axton or Salvador when first learning the game the reason being that both of their action skills save you ammunition. When I first was playing ammunition was relatively painful to come by until I learn how to take out enemies effectively. For The Pre-Sequel I chose to play with Wilhelm because he has 2 aerial drones that save ammunition in the early going. Most of the bosses that you face drop legendary loot the epic guns/shields so playing them over and over again is known as farming. It's one of the cornerstones of getting good gear in this series. Every time you face and being a boss type character (they're usually want to have a character introduction video) you can then restart the game and fight them again and again and again. Be warned it can sometimes take near 50 tries before they drop their good orange gear. When Grandpa Burps Patrick Obeys… Or White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange this is a rarity colors given to loot so that you can know what is the most common a.k.a. white to the most rare orange. When you see something that is orange picking up right away. If you get stuck at a spot that you can't give bikers are getting beat up/killed a lot go back to the last area that you cleared out and played over and over again. I do this just the level of my guy so I'm on par with the enemies of fighting. In borderlands if you go in under level against hard enemies you will get destroyed. You can get a lot of golden keys from the Internet. Golden keys are used on a special chest in both Sanctuary and Serenity the main towns in both games. The golden key chest gives you purple rarity gear that can be used to help you fight enemies. It's always level to the same level as your character which is great. I'll put a link in the comments to a Website where you can find keys for both borderlands 2and The Pre-Sequel. I hope that helps and I hope you enjoyed this game.

Borderlands, you either love it or you hate it. Borderlands is known for it's humor and excessive amount of guns. This collection includes BL2 and Pre Sequel no sign of the first one though which in my opinion had the best class in the series but I digress. This collection is jam packed with content which can be a pro and a con all at the same time with so much to do it can feel underwhelming but if you're looking something to sink your teeth into for months possibly years then look no further. Just don't expect a compelling story although the characters and world are simply amazing. Worth a try for sure. Word of advice don't play this alone it's definitely a game you want to play with a buddy or two or three. It support local multiplayer for splitscreen if you're into that sort of thing.
