Cool. Might be worth a dabble then. Loved fallout 3 and I assume this is in a similar vein?
Might be my bag.
I had in mind a long winded explanation of the differences between Borderlands and Fallout (which will surface once you get into it), but suffice to say, Borderlands is Fallout on a crank and acid trip. Plus, I don't know which game has the most intimidating boss fights, but I know which one induces laughter before handing my ass to me on a plate:

Borderlands:


Fallout:



Ok,you've convinced me. Once I've finished just cause 2, this will be my next purchase.
Hmmmm,is it me?

And according to [Kotaku]:

It's coming out on June 25, either for $9.99 (aka 800 Microsoft points) or for free as part of the Season Pass purchase.

[Nerdist Podcast With Randy Pitchford]

A related note from the almost 1hr 30min interview is the following announcement about future DLC for Borderlands 2:

"We are going to do more, we are going to do some other things. I don't have details exactly of it yet cause we're not ready to announce what the other things are..." Apparently Gearbox has "more stuff in the hopper that we're planning and getting pretty excited about. So if you are a Borderlands 2 fan, you don't have to be afraid that that's the end of it."

Note: The Borderlands 2 discussion is around the 1hr 9minute mark.

Gearbox Software: Borderlands 2 DLC - It Ain't Over!


According to [Kotaku], Gearbox Software has announced that more DLC for Borderlands 2 is on its way. The article details that the new piece of digital Ka-boom-boom! will not be released until MS completes their switch over to actual currency and has also not mentioned if this release is to be included as part of the Season Pass(slim-chance, methinks).

But what's been made known is:

The DLC is titled: "Headhunter Pack: T.K. Baha’s Bloody Harvest"

It will include an extra mission, a themed boss fight with T.K. Baha himself, and an epic boss battle against a giant pumpkin, Jacques O’ Lantern. Gearbox also announced that more Headhunter packs are expected for release later in the year.

Also Announced:

Along with this Headhunter DLC Pack, another upgrade pack will be made available. "Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2" (said download for $5.00 / £3.30) will be released at the same time as "Baha’s Bloody Harvest" and will feature yet another level cap increase up to 72! A new Digistruct Peak Challenge will be included which contains a new map and loot. The DLC will also feature a way to allow players to over-level the game for extra challenges.

No price or achievement news have been relayed for all the other stuffs.

Borderlands 2 Gets A GOTY-Style Release:

2K Games announced an all-encompassing Game of the Year package deal for their first-person shooter-RPG, Borderlands 2.

Priced at $60, the pack will include, in addition to the main game, every piece of content tied to the Borderlands 2 Season Pass and the Premiere Club.
Here's the full list, courtesy of 2K Games' press release:

Borderlands 2 Main Game
Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty
Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage
Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt
Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep
Creature Slaughter Dome

Premiere Club Content:
Gaige, the Mechromancer Character Class; Gearbox Gun Pack; Golden Key; Vault Hunter's Relic
Krieg, the Psycho Character Class
Collector’s Edition Heads and Skins
Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 1.

The two upcoming Fall DLC Packs - the Headhunter Pack and Digistruct Peak Challenge will not be included.

The Borderlands 2 GOTY Edition is scheduled to hit PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on October 8 in North America, and on the 11th in other regions.



DLC Details:

Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2: Digistruct Peak Challenge
The level cap raise (Level 72)will occur in the "Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2: Digistruct Peak Challenge." The challenge refers to a new map and a mode in which you may fight overpowered enemies "for new loot and the ability to 'over level' your game for extra challenges," Gearbox said in a fact sheet. It'll be $5 and it isn't part of the Season Pass DLC.

Headhunter Pack
Re-introduces T.K. Baha  and a new mission set as well as a boss fight with Jacques O'Lantern. No price has yet been announced for this DLC, but it's also not a part of the Season Pass, which has since expired.

Not sure why this trailer is being released at this time...other than to offer some background on the Tiny Tina DLC, or some other secret soon-to-be-disclosed motive.
