At the PAX West 2017 Randy Pitchford dances around the topic of Borderlands 3, not naming the game specifically but saying that “90% of Gearbox is working on the thing you want us to be working on.”
Gearbox President Randy Pitchfork just finished his panel at PAX West 2017 he has said that “90% of Gearbox is working on the thing you want us to be working on.” Which is no doubt the next instalment to the Borderlands franchise. We know that the next Borderlands game could be released sometime in the next year with Take-Two’s CEO Strauss Zelnick teasing: “Looking ahead to Fiscal Year 2019, we expect to deliver both record net sales and operating income led by the launches of Rockstar Games’ Read Dead Redemption 2, and a highly anticipated new title from one of 2K’s biggest franchises.”

Hello! My name Jak Connor I’m based in Australia and I picked up PCgaming as child when I was around ten years old. I mostly played RTS games back then, putting many hours into Age of Empires 1/2 and Age of Mythology. My love for PC gaming grew and stayed with me as I now have a passion for gaming and the amazing technology jumps developers show us all the time. I pledge that I will be bringing you fine people of DSOgaming the most unique and interesting news I can find!
“Randy Pitchfork” LOL
“90% of Gearbox is working on the thing you want us to be working on”
Aliens: Colonial Marines to the standard it was originally advertised?
He changed his name just for PAX.
Randy “The Scammer” Turdblossom, more like……
I was going to go with “shutting down the studio forever & selling off all its assets to some sh*thole like EA”, but I like your idea too 😛
Just for the lulz I’d love to see Randy Pitchford set up a new studio led by him, Cliffy B, Sean Murray and Peter Molyneux. Their business practices would likely put even Warner Bros, Square Enix, Zenimax, Ubisoft, EA, Activision and Konami to shame!
Oh God…….
Turdblossom brings all the marketing ripoff strategies, like $150 “Collector’s” editions that don’t even include the base game, Sean Murray bring his psychotic smile & compulsive lying, Cliffy B brings his console fanboyism, & Peter Molyneux bring his console pandering & joins Murray on the obsessive compulsive
lyingmarketing front?Oh God……..
…and IGN and its ilk would still praise it if enough advertising dollars were offered and the masses would still buy it. Tragic.
The first entry, at least. They’d rave about it for a while, then after about 12-18 months they’d admit it was just a fad & the game was a sick joke that they can’t even understand why they ever bothered with it in the first place.
Of course, with the second entry right around the corner, they’d probably still net a nice profit margin from the remaining sycophants, but then they’d go belly-up by the time they tried a third entry, since the fad, hype train & cult-worshipping bullsh*t would have, by this point, long-since died off.
😀
So very true. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve seen such sites rubbishing games that they’d formerly praised whenever a sequel is on the horizon. Such sites exist as advertising vehicles for the games industry, more specifically the so-called AAA games industry that spends the most on advertising their wares on such sites. Shameless and shameful.
Case in point; all the websites that 9/10’d Destiny now backtracking & acting more like Destiny was a 5/10, whereas Destiny 2 is most definitely a 10/10 affair!
Haha, yes! It took me longer to download the Destiny 2 beta than the time I suffered playing it before promptly uninstalling it.
On the subject of that game, some of Digital Foundry’s recent output has been fun. They’re getting a mostly solid 1080p/60fps from a super-cheap Pentium CPU whereas every console including the upcoming Xbone X runs the game at 30fps.
Oh, and they’ve shown Bungie’s in-game frame-rate counter (because the game doesn’t allow third-party utilities) to be wildly inaccurate.
No thanks
How Pitchfork™ is still employed at Gearbox confounds me.
Anyways, Gearbox and Ubisoft are two of the companies I never give money to.
He’s one of the founders as well as CEO & President, so I’m guessing he owns 50% or more of the company, so nobody can remove him 🙁
Ah, the side-effects of bad leadership. On the bright side; we get to blame the guy who founded the company for destroying it, for once! 😀
In the unfortunate event that you are impressed by borderlands 3 E3 trailers and want to give money to Gearbox and Randy Pitchfork, just go to steam and buy shadow warrior 2, its the same and its better, better graphics, better weapons, better powers, more enemies, better maps, better dialolgues. Give your money to Poland not HIpsterstan.
Shadow Warrior 2 isn’t quite like Borderlands. The closest game would be Destiny.
those games are like borderlands
Yes that’s what I said. So someone who wanted to find a Borderlands alternative would probably play those games instead of Shadow Warrior 2.
Waiting for this game to drop. The pre-sequel was useless haven’t even played 30 minutes of it.
Same old same old, nope… My give-a-shitto-meter says 0%.
How can a pitchfork be randy?
I hope 90% of Gearbox is enough manpower to drop the ancient Unreal Engine it’s been using. DX9, singlethreaded crap.
In his world, “the thing you want us to be working on” is Project 1v1.
randy and gearbox both need to go down to the corner market and get a bag of dicks ….and eat em
