VG247: A few different gaming sites have misunderstood or read incorrectly a quote taken from an interview we did with Gearbox president Randy Pitchford during the Duke Nukem Forever event in Las Vegas recently. Contrary to what is being reported, Randy Pitchford did not confirm that Borderlands 2 was currently in the works at Gearbox.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Gearbox Entertainment has confirmed layoffs at the company, following the announcement of its sale by Embracer.
I’m glad Embracer is selling them. I hope someone other than MS buys them and frees them up to make great games.
Less than a day after the news that Take-Two Interactive would acquire Borderlands developer Gearbox Entertainment from the embattled Embracer Group, layoffs have already begun. In the hours since former Gearbox employees were made redundant, they've taken to Twitter, and while the total number of staff impacted remains hard to determine, it sounds significant.
I am glad to see Gearbox under Take Two. But lay offs I am not surprised they aren't the only company cutting staff and they won't be the last. And I have a feeling the Borderlands movie honestly will tank when it comes out. The cast is just wow a complete mess Lilith is too old Roland is to small and scrawny. They are missing Brick and Mordecai and I don't think Tiny Tina will be as bat shit nuts as she is in the games.
Pfft, literally said yesterday how it must be nerve wracking for the devs and then this shite. People aren't looking to get fired, and these companies don't care in the slightest.
Inflation post 1/20/2020 is really causing pain to everyone. The cherry on top was companies waiting post 11/8/2022 to start doing layoffs. Hmm, I wonder why they waited past that date... Staring with Google in January 2023 and everyone following suit there after.
Companies that over-hire should be fined heavily and the CEO loses his/her bonus during layoffs, and that money can go to the workers that they laid off.
I hope Pitchford got let go for the sake of employee safty. The man is a walking grease fire waiting to happen.
He didnt? :S *Boner goes back down* :'(
He may not have confirmed it but u have to b retarded to think that that little money maker doesn't have a sequel coming our way
Awwww...
*goes back to playing Borderlands*
It had better be in development, don't make me madder than this post already has.
Randy make it happen since its one of my favourites.
