It’s been a long and bumpy road for Borderlands 2 DLC. Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty was a bit bland. Mr Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage was pretty damn good, but with some atrocious boss fights and a number of rather rubbish quests.

For a game that otherwise seems so intent on hitting every key ‘Western’ theme (bank heist, train robbery, Native Americans, gold mines, six-shooters,) this is a pretty odd omission. The horses are there, usually standing around in stables or in need of […]
