Now don’t get me wrong, if this was a TV show it would be a firm fan favourite for those die-hard Borderlands junkies in desperate need for an extended overdose of 2K’s universe. “Escape Plan Bravo – Where you can watch your favourite AAA title play out in front of your very eyes with minimal input over a 12 month period!”

If you haven’t picked it up by now, I’ll lay it out clearer by suggesting a new promotional tagline for TellTale to use for the duration of Episode 4′s marketing strategy: We watch a very funny missile launch scene, we watch Rhys hack into Helios defense systems, and we watch Fiona conduct a tour of Handsome Jack’s office. In the other corner, we have Escape Plan Bravo. Bigby Wolf got to yell at angry frogs, get into bloody bar fights and has to work his little tail off to avoid being killed by, well, anyone who wants to pick a fight with him that given day.

On the outside, a game about solving a murder sounds slow and clunky (See also: LA Noire) in comparison to a whirlwind gun slinging title such as a Borderlands spin-off, and yet, that just isn’t the case. Bigby Wolf was allowed so much brutally aggressive fun, something Rhys and Fiona were desperately lacking in.
