Borderlands

Greetings, Vault Hunters! Borderlands is already a series of best-selling games, but what lies beyond? Books? Comics? A feature film starring MULTIPLE Oscar winners?! In this episode we’re going beyond the looting, beyond the shooting, beyond… the Borderlands. Host Joel Watson is joined by Gearbox Entertainment Company Founder Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Properties Randy Varnell, and Director of Gearbox Cinema & Cinematics Group Matthew Ward!

Greetings, Vault Hunters! Don’t you hate it when you finish a game’s main narrative and the game just sort of… ends? But what if the end wasn’t the end, and more game content could simply be downloaded? What if we took a side quest from our main mission and talked about Borderlands DLC? What if (and hear me out) host Joel Watson was joined by Creative Director Matt Cox, Senior Project Producer Anthony Nicholson, and Lead Technical Sound Designer Jesse Lemons to talk about Borderlands 3 DLC: Bounty of Blood?! What if, indeed.

Greetings, Vault Hunters! Have you ever noticed how the best things always come in threes? Back to the Future movies? Check. Celebrity deaths? Big check. Borderlands games? If you don’t count The Pre-Sequel, Tales, New Tales or Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, that’s a colossal triple check! So today host Joel Watson is joined by Senior Project Producer Chris Brock, Mission Designer Kate Pitstick and Art Director Scott Kester to talk about the one and only third Borderlands game: Borderlands 3!

Greetings, Vault Hunters! We know Borderlands helped define the looter shooter genre, but where would the loot be without the shooting? Nowhere, that’s where.

Host Joel Watson is joined by Lead Weapons Artist Asia Hawkins, Art Director Jimmy Barnett and Lead VFX Artist Ashley Lyons!

Greetings, Vault Hunters! On this week's episode we're talking about CHOICES, and how the choices we make have a lasting effect on the outcome of future events AND our interactions with NPCs!

Greetings, Vault Hunters! On this episode we're taking a side quest from our main mission and discussing how we express our Vault Hunter pride through real-world meet-ups, online events and by wearing our Claptrap t-shirts, drinking from Claptrap mugs and enthusiastically sniffing Claptrap-scented candles! We're talking Borderlands Licensing, Community and Live Ops with Host Joel Watson, Director of Licensing Erica Hollinshead-Stead, Lead Community Manager Noelle Pugh and Managing Producer of Live Content Mario Rodriguez!

Greetings, Vault Hunters! Today we are taking a side quest from our main mission and talking about the subtle art; the beautiful science of doing a funny voice and saying things like, "Shoot me in the taint!". Host Joel Watson is joined by Associate Director of Narrative, April Johnson, and Gearbox VOverlord, Joel McDonald, to discuss all things VOICE OVER in the Borderlands franchise.

Greetings, Vault Hunters! Today we’re talking about the sequel that isn’t; the prequel that mustn’t… but does anyway? It’s Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! Host Joel Watson is joined by Project Producer James Lopez, Mission Designer Matt Higggins, and Boss Designer Josh Jeffcoat to relive the thrills and chills of co-developing a Borderlands game with an Australian studio. If you think there isn’t a story about a pack of wild kangaroos, you’d be WRONG!

In this episode of Echoes from the Borderlands, we are talking about the game that gave us Handsome Jack, Tiny Tina, and made Borderlands a franchise: Borderlands 2! Our guests are Lead Writer Anthony Burch, Boss Designer Josh Jeffcoat, and Lead Cinematics Designer Brian Thomas.

Greetings, Vault Hunters!

Catch a riiiiiiiiiiiiiide!
