Tales From the Borderlands is Telltale Games' best point and click adventure game since The Walking Dead: Season One. If you have any interest in Borderlands, this game is a fun new way to experience this universe. The excellent story and interesting characters are what make this game shine.

One of my favorite games that I've played in the last year, no question. I normally stick to games that are more fast-paced (FPS's, action-adventure), but am so glad that I ventured outside the norm. Tales from the Borderlands was hilarious and poignant; the music and graphics were brilliant; and the stories and characters have stayed with me, in a good way, long after having completed the game.

One of the better games to come from Telltale. It has its tech/running issues but not enough to sully the experience. However, I won't be so lenient with their most recent titles (Batman, WD Season 3 etc.). Their games need to be polished at this point.
In general, I'm a big fan of Telltale Games. Hear me talk about and review them on an iTunes podcast about video games, 2v1 Podcast.

This is another great entry into Pandora. I am a huge fan of the borderlands series and love how telltale games has put their own twist on the game. If you enjoy borderlands and like the telltale style of gaming then this is an obvious choice for you

This game was interesting for me because it was my first time playing a game that is mostly story based. The little choices you make do make a difference but overall you cannot just walk around and do what you want. There is a direct progression of story. It was an amazing story too! If you love the Borderlands world, Id recommend playing this!

This game has got one of the better song selections in a while! Like all games from this studio it's a very easy completion at around 10 hours. However, the story and music make it worth picking up if you can grab it for $20 or less.

This is a visual novel type game with very limited gameplay. Point and click and dialogue options for story. It's basically a choose your own adventure game. Not terrible especially at it's price. Good game.

This is my favorite of all the Telltale games. It greatly exceeded my expectations, because there isn't anyway I thought they could top The Walking Dead, but they did. Engaging, addicting, just so much to love about this game. If you are a fan of the Telltale series, pick this up immediately. A must buy!

Even if you've never played the Borderlands games, this game is an entertaining sci-fi adventure. Of course, it's even more enjoyable if you've played Borderlands 2. Telltale game emphasize story over gameplay but you won't be bored. The characters and choices you make will draw you in.

The game play sucked. I yearned to have the game start all the way to the end. 4hrs of anticipation waiting for the game to start...waiting for a Chance to play. On the bright side. It's borderlands so I enjoyed real pleasure playing it anyway...it started becoming fun 1/2 way through. Even with these negatives, I could not put it down. I'll play it again soon but I'll never get over not getting to play the old game.
Oh it's very funny. The family laughed a lot as I made one bad decision after another.

I was expecting more hands on action but this is more of a choose your own adventure style game. But well worth the storyline for boarderland fans.

Another great game by telltale games. Plays like an interactive movie where you have to hit a certain button or move the stick in a direction in combat to be successful and make decisions within a limited time that affects the game.

If you ever played a telltale game and liked it than you will like this one. I got it on sale but would probably pay full price. You do more watching the game than playing but I love the story telling.

Overall, this is a great game. You become attached the characters as the story progresses throughout the game. A few QTE's and the outcome is based on your decision. This game does have replay value.
