After three lengthy episodes, it's about time to start addressing the elephant in the room: Tales from the Borderlands is shaping up to be the best title Telltale Games has ever developed.
Tales from the Borderlands – Episode Three: Catch a Ride builds upon the set-up from the previous episodes and delivers a more intense atmosphere and deeper story development. Players who dislike quick-time events may get frustrated at times, but the majority give plenty of reaction time and serve to both hold attention and up the action.
Waiting until all are released to play this one.
Never played these games but the Borderlands ones appeal to me the most.
Was very close to giving it a 9.0 but the game doesn't quite deserve it. This is mainly due to the amount of quick-time events, which is a mechanic a lot of gamers don't like.
I'm not a fan of quick time events on a lot of games but I don't mind them on games like Heavy Rain or the telltale games . I think they are a crucial mechanic on a game like that because the game becomes a movie if they are not there.
Full steam ahead as we plow through Tales From the Borderlands fantastic third episode like an out-of-control Runner smashing through a nest of skrags on the dusty planet of Pandora. Book-ended by two heart-racing action sequences, Catch A Ride doesn’t only keep the pace very much flowing for 2K games spin-off adventure, but also proves that this series could potentially be one of the greatest that Telltale Games have made to date. Spoilers will be kept to a minimum, but you can get a quick recap of the adventure by looking back at our reviews of episode one and episode two.
Jordan says, "Telltale Games is as infamous for their storytelling prowess as they are for their eclectic range of popular licenses that they draw from—and ever since the debut episode of Tales From the Borderlands hit, there has been just as much praise for its humor and writing—adding yet more prestige to Telltale’s sterling reputation."
they better be good for as long as we have to wait for them, but im cool with that, and if you can deliver quality, then everyone else should be as well... too much rushing in most games today hence the first day patches and broken to all hell releases... that being said i dont see this ever being as good as season 1 of the walking dead, its literally one of two games ive ever played that got me teary eyed or crying .. so yea :D
