The game’s official product description continues: “In the Borderlands Collection: Pandora’s Box, fans will experience the iconic franchise that defined the looter-shooter genre with its over-the-top firefights, absurdly varied arsenals, and thrilling interplanetary adventures perfect for solo and cooperative play. It is the perfect opportunity for lovers of the franchise and newcomers to experience this legendary series in one place.
To put out this collection of largely older games and charge $149.99 is a bold move. Of course, the $59.99 price point is much more consumer friendly, but it’s a limited-time offer to coerce people into an impulse buy. It doesn’t appear much thought went into this collection, as evident by the fact that that there’s no accompanying trailer.ย
