Yesterday Borderland 2’s lead writer Anthony Burch was bombarded with tweets about Tiny Tina. Some BL2 players think she’s making fun of the black community because she says things like ‘badonkadonk’. Now I’m all for getting rid of stereotypes, but there’s nothing wrong with Tiny Tina. Finding her racist says more about the offended parties than it does the game’s writing.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
GF365: "Whether it be style, speed or firepower, these rides are sure to satisfy. Here are our picks for the ten best vehicles in video games."
The Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak from the Gran Turismo series
Nissan Skyline from Need for Speed Underground
Motorcycle Steamroller from Dead Rising 3
And finally a car you never drive but saves your ass over and over : Honey Badger from COD MW2
I was thinking of Mad Max. That V8 felt really good to drive around in, especially with upgrades.

Honestly this is just dumb to consider it. Slang is not a language of a specific race. Everyone uses Slang language, and to go out and point it out by saying "She sounds like a black person" is more racist. Have these people been around pre-teens? Middle Schools? High School? They all talk in slang. She's just acting her age.
Am I the only one who noticed almost all of the complaints of "racism" are coming from white guys? White Guilt anyone?
She's an awful character, but no. Not racist.
Still cant believe there people out there who think TT is racist. All I see is an awesome lil crazy girl who loves explosives! Her character was one of the highlights of BL2 :D
