Tin Salamunic: Developer Telltale Games has a knack for enriching popular franchises. Whether its their comedic writing in Back to the Future or their dramatic representation of The Walking Dead universe, Telltales episodic releases arent mere spin-offs, theyre compelling expansions of the original creators visions. In their latest partnership with Gearbox Software and 2K, Telltale Games crafts yet another masterpiece that deepens an already vast universe. Tales from the Borderlands embodies the series's superb humor without the guns and obsessive looting. Expert writing and dialogue choices take precedence, but there are more action-packed quick time events than in most Telltale titles. As a result, the game captures Borderlands colorful chaos with a fresh perspective. This is a fantastic introduction to what may become one of Telltales strongest series yet.

-Sponsored by PlayStation Store- My digital collection of software has grown over the years thanks to the way digital libraries allow you to keep a lot of shelf space clear. In fact, a lot of the physical copies of games that I’ve received or bought over the years have left. I don’t have to worry about finding a disc or a cartridge when all of the games I own can be accessed from a hard drive or a console itself. To that end, we’re going to look at several games from across the PlayStation spectrum that will make for fantastic gifts or just reason enough to spend that gift card you’ve been sitting on since last year. Between PlayStation Now, PlayStation TV, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita, you won’t have trouble actually finding a piece of hardware to play a PlayStation game on, though you may struggle to make it through every game we have listed here. If you’ve got your own suggestions, be sure to share them in the comments. PlayStation Plus I know we said that this would be a list of games to buy on the PlayStation Store, but in truth PlayStation Plus presents the best value for any gamer looking to get started with digital gaming and unwilling to fully commit to getting rid of all their discs and game boxes. PlayStation Plus lets you start the collection and play online games on PlayStation 4, though you’ll inevitably find something to love in the list below too. Just consider how much you play your PlayStation console before committing to years of PlayStation Plus service. LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham [Game Page] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita The latest LEGO Batman game sends players back to miniaturized Gotham where they’ll use the caped crusader and friends to fight on the side of justice, darkness, the night, and also anyone who says they’ll help take down Clayface because that villain is justhellip; the worst. All of the LEGO games look fantastic on PlayStation 4, but we recommend the latest Batman game for PlayStation Vita in order to get you a few more games-on-the-go. Retro City Rampage DX [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita Featuring some old-school gameplay, graphics, music, and style, Retro City Rampage DX will give you either hours of the nostalgia grips or drive you crazy as you wait for the bus. With destruction-minded gameplay loops providing bursts of fast action, you’ll likely find that the story is just as distracting as everything in the game world. With tons of references to action movies and older video games, fans of 80s and 90s era gaming will find a lot to love here. Freedom Wars [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation Vita This Japanese-styled action game actually puts you in jail, sets your sentence for over a million years, and then tasks players with surviving missions against huge bosses or succeeding in missions where they’ll have to rescue their fellow prisoners. Freedom Wars features Japanese voiceover with English text and a huge cast of characters. Further, the game offers up plenty of online multiplayer so PlayStation Vita owners can either band together over Adhoc wireless connections or their own Internet connections. Myst [Game Page] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PSOne Classic PlayStation 4 gamers who find themselves looking forward to the platforms extensive range of independently developed software should look to this classic available via the PSOne Classics selections available via the Playstation Store. In fact, if you’ve never played Myst before, you may be delighted to find that it shares gameplay with The Witness, an upcoming PS4 indie from Jonathan Blow. Final Fantasy VI [Game Page] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PSOne Classic See how it all started for this venerable and beloved Japanese role-playing game franchise. Well, it’s not exactly the very beginning of Final Fantasy, though Final Fantasy VI does approach the kind of graphics and story-telling through gameplay that eventually comes to define the series through Playstation 3 and into the next-generation of console hardware in PlayStation 4. Gex [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PSOne Classic If you’re missing out on the 90s attitude that fueled things like schoolyard competitions as to who could pronounce Sega in the most bad ass way imaginable, then you need to download Gex for any of your PlayStation devices right away. I mean, this freaking lizard has sunglasses on. Not even the Geico gecko can pull off this incredibly powerful statement of uncaring, rebel-yell, rad-ness. LittleBigPlanet 3 [Preview] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 Media Molecule and Sony have delighted millions of fans with both original level and art designs in conjunction with the ability to readily create your own levels and challenges for online players around the world. With LittleBigPlanet 3, the creative minds behind Sack Boy and company hope to challenge players to consider multiple characters each equipped with their own special platforming abilities. Both players and creators will have to play and design around unique new Sack-friends in the third iteration of the franchise for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Assassin’s Creed Rogue [Preview] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3 If you hope to continue the Assassin’s Creed story without a new-generation console, look to Assassin’s Creed Rogue for a tale of redemption and the bloody shores that decorated the eastern seaboard centuries before the present day. Assassin’s Creed Rogue actually centers around the first opportunity players have had to become Templars tasked with hunting down remaining Assassin forces. Tiny Troopers Joint Ops [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita Looking to break up the blockbuster gaming on your PlayStation hardware? Look no further than Tiny Troopers Joint Ops, which gives the arm-chair generals out there a view of combat they’ve unlikely seen or heard of before. Consider trench warfare’s starkly deadly strategies and offenses. Now consider give your Tiny Troopers a few grenades to lob at the machine gun nest and you’ll find they get the job done quick. Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3 It’s not hard to find a lot of your favorite brands carrying through the 2014 holiday season with new extensions or pre-quels to the stories you’ve already played through. That’s certainly true of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel which challenges players with taking on the moon itself. At least, Claptrap would have it that way in his first playable appearance in the Borderlands franchise, but I’d expect all the guns will keep them occupied too. Dragon Age: Inquisition [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 One of our favorite gaming franchises continues with the Inquisition, an investigation looking to discover the killer of the divine, an event which has shaken Thedas, the game world, to its core. Whether you’re new to the series or not, you’ll find that no time is wasted between the divine’s death and the beginning of your adventure into the unknown regions that almost seem to get bigger and bigger as you go. While Dragon Age: Inquisition does feature a segmented world, most gamers will find that the Skyhold castle you get to customize in-game becomes a steady home base. Just be prepared to dedicated as much as 60 hours to completing your hero’s story. The Wolf Among Us: Season One [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita When the developers behind The Walking Dead: Season One announced that they’d be working within the Fables comics brand, I think a lot of gamers wondered exactly what a big bad wolf would look like. Knowing the truth behind a dark and grisly murder only seems to lead to more questions from episode to episode and to that end, I recommend playing through the entire season now that it’s been gathered both digitally and at retail. Lords of the Fallen [Review] [Sony Entertainment Network]
PlayStation 4 While Dark Souls II delivered a hardcore and extremely challenging action role-playing game to consumers earlier this year, Lords of the Fallen continues the genre’s trending towards difficulty and an extreme sense of reward. Further, players may get a kick out of the title’s extremely gothic, haunting atmosphere and character design. Just be wary of the fact that you’ll die more than a few times if you can’t grasp the combat controls and inch forward with determination.

CheatCC says - "When you play the Game of Thrones, you either win or you die and if you die you get to start over or perhaps the story continues without you and then a whole bunch of people die again. No seriously, a LOT of people die in this game. This is easily the Telltale game with the biggest body count, and we played The Walking Dead. Heck, this might have a bigger body count than most Call of Duty games."

As such when it was announced that they would be working on an episodic Borderlands game, many people wondered how they would manage to take a brand known for its crazy powers and firefights and tell a story with their own unique spin. Well, now that the first episode of Tales from the Borderlands has been released, is Zer0 Sum worth downloading?"
