"Tales From the Borderlands" release date is coming, probably sometime this winter, and Telltale Games recently showed off their creation at PAX prime.

Borderlands is a loot and scoot, run and gun kind of game, and Telltlae does decision based story centered games with very little action. Its kind of a hard thing to imagine, but if they can combine Telltale's very real human relationships, with Borderland's humorous satire on the human condition, it could really shape up to be one hell of a game, that allows the player to slow down and really take in the "Borderlands" world in a way you just can't do when you are constantly being ambushed and switching out loot.

Telltale community @puzzlebox has described the project genesis on her twitter as follows: "Telltalegames and Gearbox Software got drunk at last year's VGAs and now they're having a Borderlands baby". It is going to be a Telltale style decions based point and click game, set in the normally FPS "Borderlands" world. Set after the events of "Borderlands 2"

The events of "Tales From The Borderlands" take place after the events of "Borderlands 2," not to be confused with "Borderlands the Pre Sequel" which takes place between "Borderlands" and "Borderlands 2." However, plot events from "Tales From The Borderlands" do connect with "The Pre Sequel" in some ways that have not been made clear(Confused Yet?)The game is actaully told from two playable character's perspectives, and you play their story, both of their stories, not what actually happened. Rhys (played by Sam Witwer aka Crashdown from Battlestar Galactica) and Fiona, who both work for Hyperion. It starts when Vasquez calls them into their office about a vault key, and gets crazier from there. 

Telltale Games Kevin Bruner explains that "you never really play what actually happened, you're playing this Big Fish version of what happened."

Set in the world of Pandora and following the events of Borderlands 2, the humour of Gearbox's series will remain, and as Bruner says "...you have to have crazy, over-the-top action scenes, or it's not a Borderlands game."

Gearbox writer Anthony Burch says Tales from the Borderlands is about the people of Pandora, and not about characters from the series, though they will make an appearance. He says the story will be "more about schmos trying to get by...that makes the world feel much more real."

"We're not making up a lot of these details [in Tales from the Borderlands]," Bruner says. "These details are in canon. They're from the Gearbox universe. But there just isn't as much of an opportunity in Borderlands to experience it."

"In the first-person shooter, you're responsible for tons of the chaos," he says. "You go through and you're just laying waste everywhere. But what would it be like to live in that world and have that be your reality? To have to grow up in that?

"What would it be like, instead of being a vault hunter, to be a person who has to deal with that world and to try to make your way through it?"
