Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel 4.8€/$7.20 (Steam, bundle discount only valid, if you own Borderlands 1 GOTY and 2)

[Game Deal]

Borderlands Triple Pack on Steam

Steam has recently introduced bundle discounts. This means, if you try to buy a bundle and you already own some games from it, you can get it for much cheaper. Currently, this has the restriction that you can only buy it for yourself, not as a gift.

Basically, if you try to buy BL: TPS individually, with 60% off, it amounts to 15,99€. With the bundle discount (again, provided you own both BL1 GOTY and BL2), the price drops over 3 times to 4.8€!

If you happen to already have The Pre-Sequel and Borderlands 2, but not the Borderlands 1 DLCs, you can get them with a 70% discount, even though it's not visible on the store page.

The Pre-Sequel is only the base game! I've read that it's not as good as Borderlands 2 and its Season Pass is not worth it, so some of you might be tempted to jump on it at this price. Hopefully in the months to come, this would be applied to the Pre-Sequel + Season Pass pack, so you could get the Season Pass in a similar way, but I may be wrong and the bundle discount could be valid only for packs of standalone games, not DLCs (or only select DLCs). We'll wait and see, I guess.

cool, thanks for the heads up.

Not entirely sure I could stomach more borderlands, but 4.80€ is kinda cheap... This is how steam-libraries get out of hands.

I enjoyed 1 and especially 2 since I play through it with a couple friends, but I've the general reaction I've heard about the Pre-Sequel is sort of "Meh," with many people questing how necessary it is.

It has its moments. The air boosting and butt slamming are fun. Overall though, it's very much meh. It's worth a playthrough if you enjoyed the previous 2, but I wouldn't pay more than $5 or $10 for it.

I seem to have made a mistake with the dollar amount in the title, but can't edit it now.
