RUMOR: Borderlands Remastered Edition incoming?

If they uncensor the gore, I'll buy. Chances are, the first game will get the same treatment the 2nd one did :(

It literally killed my enjoyment of the game. Sniping had zero impact at all :/

Yeah i didn't like how they censored the gore/enemy reactions in 2 and Pre Sequel purely because they were too lazy to create more than 1 version of the games. 1 is still my favourite of the lot.
 
Is fuck you Randy Pitchford and Gearbox for not getting to work on the next-gen Borderlands 3 with gun crafting. I mean... FUCK if you don't put that in the next game, I ain't playing.
 
Except they're not. More fine tuned gameplay, significantly better writing and direction to just name a few things. It's like saying Uncharted 1 and Uncharted 2 are the same game.

I actually prefer the first game's writing by a huge margin. 2's just isn't that funny to me and I found it to be full of dreadful dialogue and humour. Much prefer the first game.
 
Where do you think they get the resources from?
My post wasn't that long, I acknowledged that in the first few words.

Usually these companies ARE putting the bulk of their resources into new games, these are just done by smaller teams of people or outsourced to other companies entirely while the main developers continue to work on the next game.

Granted, I'm talking more about games that have just been given a higher res and framerate, there are exceptions like Wind Waker HD (I think I heard they put it in a new engine), Final Fantasy X/X-2 (which took forever), or Oddworld Strangers Wrath HD (which was more of a remake, like Conker on the Xbox). But I'd be surprised if these are much more than better resolutions and framerates of the 3 Borderlands games. MAYBE better textures, but I wouldn't expect more than that personally.

It was on off-hand comment made mostly jokingly contrasting the rational side of me that understands the financial reasons for doing this and the less rational side that really wants a new borderlands and hates even the thought that some resources may be being diverted away from it.
 
I don't believe for a second that you have played both games

fuck no

Maybe I just didn't pay attention to the "story" but yea the gameplay is the same exact thing. Uncharted 1 and 2 are nowhere near as similar, considering the setting(s), level design, encounter design and just overall polish in U2 compared to the first. Borderlands is just more of the same with "new" weapons and abilities. I assume the third flop game was even MORE of the same but I didn't play it.
 
People keep shoehorning old games into the new console with little to no reason to do so except to get a quick buck -_-
Well it can be a chance to own a physical copy of these games in decent condition. Last gen versions of many of the games being remastered were pretty bad technically.
 
All 3 for $60 and I'm in. Once it goes on sale somewhere for $39.99, because I know realistically they are not going to release it below $60 MSRP.
 
I expect the pre sequel to come to next gen systems, I would rather just have that if it comes at a cheaper price. Although, companies haven't really been doing that so far....

As I said before, 2K Australia is working on this one, not Gearbox. Gearbox is busy working on Battlecry.
 
If it includes the Pre-Sequel I'll definitely pick it up since I have yet to play it. If it's only 1 and 2 I'll pass.

I absolutely love BL2 but with 3 characters at lvl 72 with the best gear available there isn't much left for me to do.

I believe it might only be the pre-sequel and Borderlands 2 was my information. I don't believe the first game is involved which is a bit odd. I'm not 100% on the original not being there, but I know for sure the Pre-sequel and 2 will be.

Ah, I don't feel like this at all. No-one is forced to buy that stuff, and while I've put my 360 & PS3 away, there's games me and my friends legitimately enjoyed playing together that haven't really been fulfilled on current gen yet. So something like this would be really welcomed in our circle, while people who have had enough of the originals are free to ignore them.
 
Cool! After Bungies bungled with Destiny I was thinking about trying this series. I'll just wait for this on the One instead
Vanillia Borderlands 1 has more bang on the buck then Destiny's existence. Seriously, go out there and play that series. Like go, now!

Or... maybe because there are people that want to play them but don't want to buy last-gen systems?
*looks at Borderlands 2's sales* Who is left to not buy Borderlands?
 
Better include all three games at a fair price point with their DLCs.

If it's all three games and DLC, I'm in on day 1. Borderlands is fucking great co-op. Can't recall the last time I played it on my own though so I can understand why some people are sour on it.
 
I might buy a remastered BL1+DLC on new consoles, if priced accordingly (IE $40 max).

If they want to put 2 and pre-sequel on there, they can, but I probably will never touch them.

Borderlands 2 has ALL of that same polish that you're praising Uncharted 2 for having over the first game. That's my point. Actually go back and try to play BL1 after playing BL2 and you'll notice it instantly, just like going from UC2 to UC1.

Oh definitely. I played 1 or 2 on PC because the console version was so low framerate. Normally I don't care about that much but Borderlands was a bit too janky.
 
if they want to release pre-sequel this way on PS4 i don't mind or if they want to release all dlc and hopefully fix that 1 bug that stopped you from beating a dlc in the first borderlands then go ahead, it's not exactly like you can play it online anymore with ps3 since gamespy server shutdown

and that right there is a justified reason to re release the first game if I ever saw one
