If you're reading these reviews to decide whether or not to buy or try it out then let me help: BUY IT! NO SPOILERS: I personally would give this game a 10 but it isn't for everyone. Telltale games are played and moved along like an animated graphic novel (but with decisions that you make along the way). Don't be fooled by this style of game though. You want action? Got it Excitement? Yup You want your choices to impact the future - Totally Deep well written characters - It has loads Variety? Of course Graphics that look great but can be played on a potato - Yep Epic finale that does not let you down - Ah-huh and a roller coaster journey through an beautifully created world - Damnit, yes! I could easily go on. Whether you've played the original or not does not matter - there are 'in-jokes' but they are so few that anyone who has never played a Borderlands game before would not even notice. Brilliantly told twisting story line - emotional roller coaster - and a ton of laugh out loud moments! Verdict: Buy it !

In my opinion, this is currently the best Telltale game series. It's about as perfect as a borderlands adventure game can be, and one of my favorite adventure games of all time up there with the likes of Grim Fandango. Oh and hey, CHOICES THAT MATTER! What a concept!

The whole Tales From The Borderlands series was the best Telltale game I've played yet and I have palyed all of them. Its funny, its tense at moments, it has fantastic music and the final episode is close to perfection. I cant think of anything there is left to improve with this episode. Thats why it is a 10/10 in my opinion.

This has got to be my favourite Telltale game ever and I played The Walking Dead season 1 Only Telltale can take an already immersive world that is Borderlands and put something of its own into it, just like they did with The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us, but not so much with GOT They made original and refreshing characters that you cared about and related to and it made you cry and feel sort of empty inside when you had to say goodbye to them. They made a story so interesting and emotional that Gearbox allowed it to significantly affect the Borderlands universe ( you know what I'm talking about ). Voice acting is simply superb, the music is fitting and memorable and every element of this game is just perfect. Thank you Telltale for this amazing journey and experience, for making me feel like I haven't felt in a while.

This series is perhaps my favorite movie-game from Telltale. Its quirky. Its dark. Its funny. Despite the game has 1 ending, you get to choose how your behavior is with Rhys and Fionna. The casts are lovable. Vaughn is just a badass accountant. The only thing disappointing about this movie game is the romance and I hope this gets addressed if Season 2 is ever made.

I haven't written a review for anything on this site for years, but after playing this I feel entirely obligated. I am a huge telltale fan and an even bigger tales from borderlands fan. Not only is this the best episode in Tales from Borderlands, I think its the best episode in any telltale endeavor, and thats saying quite a lot. All plot lines are wrapped up neatly and nicely, even the aesthetic choices have meaning and the balance of humor and intensity is perfect. Better yet, It sets itself up for a VERY interesting season two. If you ever doubted this telltale franchise, give it another chance for the sake of getting to this episode. If you haven't given these types of games a shot yet, tales from borderlands is the perfect place to start and this episode is really something to look forward to. It goes to show how well written and humorous this series is, as outside of telltale, I'm a much larger fan of ASOIF, Fables and The Walking Dead. But really, this is the best of the bunch in my opinion.

I waited until the whole season was out to play and I would recommend that approach a lot. That feeling you get when you just start watching a show that's been out for seasons and don't have to wait for the cliffhangers to resolve. This episode was the finest of the lot, the first four are all degrees of good, but they were the legwork for the crescendo ending to the season this episode is. If you've played TT games before, you know how the mechanics work, so trust in their storytelling ability to play this game and let it bring you along for the ride.

Holy...Freaking...Damn. Marvelous. A masterpiece. I actually registered just to review this game, yet I find myself in a loss of words to describe how goddamned awesome this is. Its been years since a game affected me in such a emotional level. I couldn't stop laughing, or crying, or giggling, or slack jawed at all unfolding events. Its just so clever, so brilliantly conceived that it raptured me on my chair and didn't let me leave for hours. I wasn't even a fan of this lore, I rushed Borderlands 1 just because I'm a huge fps fan, but I never payed attention at anything surrounding me. I got this game in a steam sale out of curiosity and couldn't stop playing it, it exceeded all my expectations, and now I wan't to know everything even remotely related to this lore. It also got me into telltale games and oooohhhh boy am I having the time of my life right now. It's a must have if you love adventure, action, amazing storytelling and dialogues, impeccable voice acting and **** you just wanna have many hours of pure. bonkers. fun.

Everyone thinks they are the heroes of their own story... For me this series is the best games i ve played this year. Because it adds so much to the freaking borderlands universe. But this review should be about episode 5. So yeah episode 5 is definitely the best out yet so far. Everything comes into conclusion everything is explained expect for ending that honestly i don't really know what to think about it. But expect that this episode was perfect. 10/10 But ending really left me confused. This series got so much humour, action moments, emotional moments, choices that really weren't that easy to make. I m gonna even say it out loud I ENJOYED IT MORE THAN THE WALKING DEAD AND WOLF AMONG US there i m done just, buy it. Do it. No possible way you will regret this. For me game of the year.

I haven't Wrote a review since Episode 1. I decided to do a complete summary of all the episodes. This is probably the best of all the Telltale series. I'm a huge Walking Dead and GoT fan but this was simply incredibly enjoyable. I don't want to spoil anything so all I will say is that the story is a 10 and every episode will leave you wanting more. Not to mention the ending was amazing. A must buy for anyone. Even if your not a fan of Borderlands you will still love this series.

An almost perfect ending to one of Telltale's best series. Basically what everyone else is saying. I can't stress how great this game is. The final episode is just the icing on the cake. Well done Telltale.

I absolutely loved this story. From beginning to end I sincerely hope the next borderlands actual game follows these characters further on another adventure. Just a beautiful story told with the perfect sense of humor.

Simply fantastic, the choices finally matter, the ending was a bit of a cliche buut I'l let that slide, I honestly had fun and I believe that it couldn't have been done any better.

Telltale Games company strike again! There is enough space for rude jokes and sentimental moments and they're equal enough. Every character can't be considered as a bad one or a good one : even villains cause sympathy. The game deserves its score as 20 out of 10 : 10 for Fiona and another 10 for Rhys.

This game does not deserve a 1010 score, but I enjoyed all the hours I spend on it and I want more, so hats off to TellTale on this one. blablabla 150 characters.

It's just reminds me of how great a Telltale game can be. I can't stress how good it actually is, you must to play it to feel how funny and sometimes emotional it can be. I loved it! And I'm quite sure you will love it as well.
