Are you planning to play Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel?

The PlayStation Blog has a new post with new screenshots and details about Tales From the Borderlands. Here's the important stuff:

The loot you grab in Tales will be available to use in other areas of the Borderlands franchise
It's an episodic series that'll be $4.99 per episode (or you can save with the Season Pass)
The series takes place after the events of Borderlands 2. Handsome Jack is gone. Or is he?

Did someone say loot?

Spotted at PaxSouth.

If you're on Xbox One you'll have to wait for tomorrow (or Dec 3rd for Xbox 360), but if you're playing on PC or a PS3/4, get it while it's hot.

You can add Borderlands to the list of video game properties that will be turned into movies that you maybe will see, but really don't need.

Lionsgate announced Aug. 28 that they would develop the games series into a 'tentpole' movie, would means they probably have a few ideas for all the ways they want to fool with the loot-based first person shooter.

According to Variety:

"Part of our strategy in entering the game space under Peter Levin has been to source new brands with built-in audiences that will translate into great films and television shows," said Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Co-Chairs Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger. "The 'Borderlands' games don't pull any punches, and we'll make the movie with the same in-your-face attitude that has made the series a blockbuster mega-franchise."

Friday's announcement comes less than three months before Lionsgate opens its fourth and final film in its highly successful "Hunger Games" franchise, which has grossed $2.3 billion at the worldwide box office. The studio's Summit label generated $3.3 billion from its five-film "Twilight Saga." And it has grossed more than $550 million from the first two films in its four-film "Divergent Series."
