In Claptastic Voyage, you learn that there is more inside Claptrap's rusted head than bugs, dubstep remixes, and horrible loneliness. Nestled deep in his chrome dome lies a particular MacGuffin desired by Jack above all: the H-Source, a powerful code,...

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel takes time to hit the fifth gear, but when it does, it offers gameplay that is fast paced, fun, tactical and erratic. The sheer variety of weapons make this a treat for shooter fans.92K Australia 2k games Borderlands...
