Randy Pitchford claims they once discussed selling Borderlands 2 golden keys for real money

Any “Borderlands 2” fan knows that Gearbox Software regularly hands out SHiFT Codes for golden keys inside the popular co-op shooter. According to a comment by Randy Pitchford, the Gearbox Software President revealed that the developer has discussed the idea of selling golden keys for real money in the past. Pitchford is clearly against the idea of monetizing loot inside “Borderlands 2” as he stated, “I’m not sure I’m ready to cross that line.”

You know what I'd love for them to discuss? How about the major frame rate issue plaguing most Nividia players? If my laptop ran this game at a solid 60fps for the entirety of the main game, the dlcs and patches shouldn't ever cause it to hit below 10fps. That's just stupid.

I just don't think Randy, and Co, should be trusted with any sum of money.

I'm shocked Sega haven't asked them.."Where'd the cash go?"

They have..but behind close doors

csreynolds3970d ago

And I imagine that idea would've been met with a big "f**k you Randy" from gamers...

GreenRanger3969d ago (Edited 3969d ago )

I'm surprised that they sold the game for real money with all the bugs it has.

pacosanchez883969d ago

oh shush, its a very fun game. im tired of all the gearbox hate because of A:CM. that crappy game doesnt suddenly make borderlands 2 awefull

shysun3969d ago

It's one of the best games I've played in years!

KrystofKage3969d ago

Huh? Nothing unusual, and nothing game breaking. I don't know what you are getting on with, but I'm guessing it's the gearbox hate train because A:CM sucked.

MilkMan3969d ago

yeah, it seems like it was designed for that. Glad they didn't do it.

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.

No one liked the Batmobile in Arkham Knight. Top 10?

toxic-inferno460d ago

I don't know... It was a strange addition to the game, and the parts of the game where you had to fight in it were tedious. But driving it around Gotham felt brilliant.

Anyone else have a small but noticeable delay in aiming on Borderlands 2? Anytime I move the aiming reticle, there is maybe a quarter of a second (250ms) delay before it moves. Happens in both Handheld and Docked.
