Tales from the Borderlands: Episode Two - Atlas Mugged
I also doubt Telltale would kill off any of the main characters, so it's not so much will they survive as it is how they survive – and I doubt player choice will be much of a factor in the upcoming solution. I'm still interested in seeing the next chapter of the story, but the reasons I play Telltale games – the intriguing characters and meaningful choices – are still not hitting the mark.

By gamecrate.com onIt's been a while since we saw an episode of Tales from the Borderlands, and Telltale knows it. Heck, when the game starts up, the first thing out of Marcus's mouth is, “It's been a long time,” before he shrugs off the complaint. This simple line sets...
By Cheat Code Central onAtlas Mugged has the same level of tension that closed out Zer0 Sum. The ending is more than a little nerve-rattling. If you’ve come to care about this ragtag band of jerks, you’ll be both satisfied and possibly angry at the final emotional payoff. This is a Telltale Games production after all. It continues to be a crazy ride through a story that successfully employs the most beloved elements of the Borderlands franchise.
By GameSpot onYou can feel the creators of some games in certain details or plot twists, but Tales from the Borderlands Episode 2 goes further. It's as if everyone is dancing as hard as they can behind the scenes to put on a show, and you're experiencing the sweat as it drips from their brow. It's the sort of game that feels like a puppy dog desperate to be liked, and you can't help but pet it.

By PC Gamer onPourquoi je ne mets que 8 alors que le premier épisode avait eu un énorme 9,5 ? Cet épisode 2 n'est pas une déception, loin de là. Ce n'est pas non plus l'excellente surprise qu'était “Zer0 Sum” que j'attendais impatiemment mais avec également avec...

Il secondo episodio di Tales from the Borderlands è, per l'appunto, un secondo episodio. Ciò significa una fisiologica difficoltà nel mantenere alto il mordente, e nonostante la grande esperienza maturata da Telltale nel corso degli anni, i ritmi e il...
