Gearbox Software is promising PC gamers that the PC version of Borderlands 2 won’t be a console port, and will be filled chock full of PC-specific features such as a PC specific user interface, remappable keyboard controls, offline LAN support, and integrated VSYNC options, among other things.
However, the way Gearbox is promising it is in a uniquely goof - but sweet - way: a love letter from series mascot Claptrap, who flirts, ”I WANT you, baby. I want you BAD.”
