    About time, they are putting all their attention into GoT lately.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but aside from their apparent need to delay episode 2 of this, they are alternating between each series.

    Glad to see episode 3, really enjoying playing these games right now. Have this, GoT and TWD Season 1 all on the go at the same time

    I've become a bit bored with GoT mid episode 3, so looking forward to this :)

    No, they are not alternating at all. it's been 3 months since Ep2 of this. GoT has got 2 episodes since then.

    At this rate it will be January before it's finished.

    Even if you are not a Borderlands fan this is head and shoulders above some of the other games, GoT had a great 1st episode but for the last 2 episodes all I did was mash buttons thats how little I cared about the dialogue I chose :(

    Which is why you wait until its done. I waited til season 1 of walking dead was done. And I waited until season 2 was done. And the same with Wolf among us. I havent touched this or Game of thrones yet because its still rolling out.

    Being able to play it together is the best experience. Its the same as binge watching on netflix....its just better.

    Exactly, I don't feel this episodic content release method works well at all. Only Revelations 2 worked because there were released so close together, they were only a week or 2 apart. Basically they could have released it as one pack as it was all ready to go from the start.

    I waited for The Walking Dead S2 to be fully released before playing it and glad I did. I'm doing the same for GoT. Borderlands I just jumped straight in as I really like that IP and I'm sorry I didn't hold out.

    I assume you need to have played the actual borderlands games to understand whats going on here?

    Not really, but it definitely helps, I'm sure a story summary wiki type thing would suffice

    I will say though that, much like say TWD and GoT a lot of the fun is being like "Oh look it's XYZ from the Show!" yanno.

    I might actually give this a miss for a few weeks. Between Batman:AK and Devil May Cry 4:SE, going to be busy with those for a while, and might lessen the wait between Episode 4.

    Do we share the same console? I swear - I'm having the exact same issue here.

    This took 3 hrs to download from PSN this evening. Don't know but I reckon Batman had something to do with it hogging PSNs bandwidth with all the day one patches being downloaded.

    Played it last night. Very funny. Gortsy is incredibly cute and their interaction with Loaderbot is superb! Also very funny when you get to the Dome and you scan everything, especially the flowers, and you get Jack's opinion, "it's a flower. What else do you want me to say? You're killing me here!" or when you scan the Killer Plant, "I want one .. Feed some orphans to it"

    It's much better than the GoT episodes imo. Suppose that has alot to do with the writing material they have to work with and the Borderlands flavour of humour that goes with it.

    Another waiting for this to go on sale for a while on the xbox now i picked this up yesterday for €15 witch i don't think is to bad considering i have had my eye on it for 6 months LoL.

    1/2 way done on epp 2 and i am really liking it as it just has everything borderlands has going for it + more. The story i find is really good and the characters are very likeable in it. What i am loving is all the references to the other borderlands games.

    One thing i am wondering are they using the borderlands game engine on this ?. As i am finding it runs so much better and looks so much better then the GOT one where everyone in the game nearly looks like same.

    Just hope there wont be a crazy long wait for the last 2 epps but knowing TellTale that could be years :P.

    Played Episode 3 last night. Have to admit, it was excellent, and really made me laugh at a number of points. The comedy in it is just bang on.
