It's finally here! Borderlands brought my boyfriend and I together a few years ago. Will Borderlands 3 tear us apart?
Thanks to Skill Up for their footage of the Calypso Twin's video. I was having trouble finding that part in our stream, but he took a really great shot of it! So yeah, check out Skill Up: / skillup

If only 2K had taken those Skillshare creative writing classes
They didn't make it.
As much as it was made by Gearbox, I just love this comment for the burn XD
I actually wished they did. The humor in this game is honestly awful. I just mute the sounds and listen to some sick best whilst shooting some shmuck.
😂😂😂
Dunno how you get 1k likes and not know who made the game
She says "pretending to be a game journalist" when in fact, she is better than 99.99999% of them out there.
Yeah but games journalist is basically an insult at this point.
@@WhyName Only because people like you can't take someone else's opinion so you label all of them as bad
No. She's not. Actual Journalists have decades worth of experience over her. Don't confuse a false meme for reality
@@FraserSouris I do? What are you even talking about?
Can't help but feel like you might be jumping to conclusions based solely on preconceived notions of what people with differing opinions to you must be like.
Also "can't take someones else's opinion".
Self awareness isn't exactly your forte, is it?
@@FraserSouris You obviously have never even played a videogame in the last 20 years or even taken interest in the industry if this is what you think. I guess you like gamestop and Mary Sue. GG.
5:05 Wow! Your ability to jump short distances without dying will be Handsome Jack's downfall!
"later on when you're killing skyscraper sized monsters with a gun that shoots lightning you'll think back this moment and be like.. "heh"
I’m surprised so many people got this reference lmao
@@123jbuster i last played this game like years ago what was the reference?
@@hbcdhapamzmdfnsdiufnsduifhsopa on the beginning of borderlands 2, upon arriving to claptrap's house he said "Wow! Your ability to walk short distance without dying will be handsome Jack's downfall. It was a very random joke that made me laugh, and considering that youll have to replay the story in a higher difficulty to increase level cap or just to try a new character, this is one of those quote that will stick to you.
*walk
Imagine inviting girlfriend reviews to try a game out early and then forgetting that the girlfriend is one of the reviewers and not letting her sit
Well you cant write a review unless you have a penis. Everyone knows that.
Even if that were true, why would puss off the reveiwer by making his significant other stand?
@@jemiebridges3197 "Try out a game early"
Did you misread the comment you replied to?
Top Tier Out of Touch Millennial Pandering is my new band name
Albums released in cassettes to not confuse the boomers.
Vinyl or cassette.
What genre do you think that would be?Sounds like ska, to me.
It must be ironic, or at least the tyrene beating up lillith video made me crease because of recent meming using those sound effects really ironically
Do a cover of Bo Burnham's panderin' as a tribute.
Omg, the Community, Parks and Rec, and SpongeBob cuts were so on point!
ROXANNE!
And trailer park boys!
I NEED MORE INVENTORY OF COOL SHOOTY THINGS!!!
Pitchford Troll had me rolling on the floor.
@@shadowfire_08 No.
"I've never played Borderlands for the story, but up until now, I've never wanted to NOT play Borderlands for the story."
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT IN AGREEMENT. Calypso Twins are like nails on a chalkboard. Rusty nails.
Had to drop a like and comment out of respect for the comment and the avatar of Roshi
@@FrostRocket92 Long live the Turtle Hermit. Also, I don't actually know which episode my avatar is from. I don't remember Roshi smoking a pipe and only found it on Google. I should watch Dragonball again... Cheers!
That was the point.
@@ferru7060 I don't think the level of cringe was supposed to be immersion-breaking. It feels like their target audience is below the M for Mature bracket.
@@KingPBJames for us it was cringe of course but remember that they were making those videos for the psychos and bandits of the galaxy.
I really liked the story of borderlands 2. Jack was a solid villain.
the handsome jack collection is one of the best shooters ever
And that should have been the end of it.
@@Valaryant. can't agree more
Same
People forget handsome jack was so HATED for a while when BL2 came out but in time we grew to appreciate how good it really was (arguably the best) & I think with the DLC of BL3 it’ll end up the same. The main story will never be as good though
*“Ooooh this gun shoots cheeseburgers.”*
This is me on a spiritual level
"This grenade is Buttstallion blowing up fabulously" I paid 100 for that and I am still not ashamed.
I found a grenade that blows up into chocolate cake wooo
this gun shoots god rays
**immediately shoots themselves in the face**
‘Murica
She’s growing stronger, soon we’ll see this Vader clip in one of Shelby’s videos:
‘When I left you I was but the learner, now I am the master.’
was the apprentice* come on get it right get it tight!
@@JakeRandall Nope, the line is, 'I've been waiting for you Obi-Wan, we meet again at last. The circle is now complete, when I left you I was but the learner, now I am the master.'
5:17 “SHEZ GETIN’ SCHTRONGER!”
Is that a Dave chappelle reference?
The Empire would like to know your location
“Am I having fun? Or do I have a problem?”
Wow I’ve never thought about it that way before... that Halloween DLC looks fun though for real....
*event
Laks ^_^ did you have to download the update to play it? Yes. It’s DLC then isn’t it.
@@Zlittlepenguin is it limited time? Yes. It's event then :3
Laks dude, don’t be daft. Yes it’s an event, but you had to download it to play it, therefore it’s DLC...
Laks well the little penguin is right technically. DLC is downloadable content so the Halloween thing is a dlc
I'm constantly amazed at how consistently well written these are. You are so much less cringy than so many other channels like you.
Don't stop!
Good script from BF, and good delivery from GF!
100% agreed!
@@datderpderping501 a quite dynamic duo
Too many people feel like theyre just forcing views, this is one of the channels that sound like they are about having fun with it all
They also stick to the game and dont rant about any random topics like gaming controversy and real world politics
Better written than the Borderlands 3 story.
That moment where he said 'can we just play please' he realized it sounded mean and immediately apologized. That's some mighty fine boyfriending 10/10 would let him be my big spoon
He's the big nice
Who woudl win?
A hyperion CEO which has a deep, mind breaking story where he just wants to do the right thing but betrayed by his friends
or
two twitch streamers?
Honestly
Why not have them all join force's
Handsome jack did nothing wrong.
@Paul Martin THAT WAS MY MAIN PROBLEM WITH THE ENDING! It just felt so rushed **SPOILERS AHEAD**
Like, oop - Troy is dead, no final monologue, no Tyreen grieving over her brothers death, nothing... AND THEN... OH BOY THEN... Tyren is now the destroyer - the strongest vault monster in the galaxy, while the background is stunning, the boss, just looks... meh... DONT GET ME WRONG for a boss she looks okay, but is overshadowed by The graveward for example. And then she just dies... no final monologue like we got from handsome jack, nothing. OH I ALMOST FORGOT, Lilith now has to die for some reason which is mentioned for 3 seconds and then she just offs herself... well then... that happened out of nowhere. Oh! And Typhon! Yep, cool plot twist, cool character aaaaaaand dead... in like.... 10 minutes... yay...
Andrew exactly
@@Yoshimitsu4prez dunno, the ending of bl2 was pretty dope tbh
Take a shot every time she says “my boyfriend”
I tried it. Am dead.
Girlfriend Reviews 😂
I like not being in the hospital.
@@Mysterith and i like not being called Jeff
I might do this tomorrow
“In all my year of journalism” subtle yet hilarious!
Fun fact: Character customization in 1st person view was practically designed for when Shelby looks at the menu 😂
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the absolute masterpiece that is the Sanctuary 3 theme?
Every time I fast travel back home I just stand there for five minutes, listening.
What about the Katagawa Ball boss music, damn now that is a masterpiece
Yesss! When the vocals come in it so kreygasm
“In all of my year pretending to be a game journalist” I laughed hella hard!
From being a Funny reviewer with awful fps skills to a Funny reviewer with average pfs skills?

Next there's gonna be 2 of them 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Justsomerandomguy951 lesbians...
Get you a girl who can play Borderlands 3 with you.
Sadly I had one and now I’ve lost her! D: I’m a damn fool!
CheetoThief you still have borderlands, it will never leave you
For me its more of "You should have picked a wife which can play with you AT ALL..."
Pretty much all of them *can* but *will* they play is an entirely different question
My girlfriend and I approve this
Your pop culture references are so spot on it’s almost scary. How do you perfectly nail them every time?? (Here referencing parks and rec)
Peter Johnston Matt does the writing, Shelby does the memes. Together they form a perfect comedic duo.
Ok the "I've never done anything wrong" parks & rec reference had me fking dying.
Honestly I would watch a whole ass playthrough of just you guys playing borderlands 3 together
Everybody wants too
5:52 then you have to play Tales From the Borderlands
Yes
@@omgmynamedoesntfi5116 yes
OMG yes!
YEEEES! One of the most funny games I've ever played
Yes! yes!yes!yes Ohh yeeeees!
Completly no joke, this shit made my day, it makes me so happy seeing a couple finally game together not complain about someone gaming, makes me so happy, and then I realized I'm single☹️
Far better to be single than to be shackled to the wrong mate.

Love the very subtle risk of rain 2 plug from steam. Such a sweet game from a small studio.
6:15
Tyreen & Troy:
"Don't forget to like, follow, and obey!"
Matt & Shelby:
"Ohhh no"
I had the pause the video because you made me wash my monitor with the juice I was drinking hahahah
I wanna give you a like but your likes are at 69 so...
I think that the Calypsos’ humor perfectly suits their character: obnoxious, immature, and cocky. Their videos are supposed to be terrible. At least I hope.
I also get that vibe from them
They are the worst villains in all of the bordelands franchise. Whoever wrote their characters deserves to be axed from working on any game ever again.
I actually think the problem is not that the writers are out of touch, I think they are perhaps a little too close to reality. Anyone disagreeing should really branch out more in terms of what they are willing to watch, just to see it for themselves. Or rather, never mind. Don't do that.
Ghost *cough* Professor Nakayama
They aren’t the worst villains from the franchise; they just could have had better writing and planning. I like their concept, but it could have been executed better.
As long as you don't pay attention to the cringey youtuber/streamer side of them with the fanatics stuff
I really liked the design and story of them
Although them as actual bosses were way too easy, maybe me and my boyfriend were too op because we literally wiped the floor with them even in mayham mode
Tales From The Borderlands should be on your next list.
It'd make for great Twitch content to see one of you make decisions for one character while the other makes decisions for the other
I'd buy the game on Epic Store if Randy Pitchford would share his USB stick full of magic tricks with me.
You can get a free USB stick at the back of his white van.
Alright, but you better get yourself tested. I heard that thing's packing some nasty STD's- I mean viruses.
@@gregorymckenzie7511 gotta catch 'em all, am I right?
I freaking love the editing of these videos, great video
I was just told about this channel today, and now I am obsessed. Is that normal? The writing, the editing, the funny; it is ALL. SO. GOOD. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
This is my first time watching one of your reviews ever (after countless of them being in my recommended) and oh my god I’ve missed out on a lot. It was incredibly funny, I’ll definitely check out the rest! 👍
Thank you!!
Absolutely the same experience.
I found the channel cuz I got into Borderlands recently and found this video on my recommendations and I didn’t regret it
I feel like the Calypso twins were satirizing vloggers that shitpost content like Jake Paul and Tana Mongoose, and the psychos were their droning fans. I didn't hate them as baddies tbh.
I agree I also think as villains they are ok people are kind of tainted by the fact that Jack was a S tier villain you can’t really do better. So just being good enough is great
Handsome Jack's shadow is just too large. Really, outside of their vlogger gimmick, which I personally found incredibly grating, the two of them were fairly capable villains. When they acted outside of their personas or focused on the logistics of their fame, they were pretty good characters. Shame that several elements of their characters that could've given them more depth were pretty much just tossed in then left unexplored.
Troy was a pretty cool boss though (even though his trash talking was hilariously ruined if you hit him with status effects pre-patch).
@Corey Stokely The satire comes from the obnoxious caricatures they portray, in the same way Jack was to a mega-corporation CEO. That's the joke. "Like, comment, and obey" to their hoards of brainless psychotic fans who follow them because of a cult of personality. It's obviously fictional commentary about the hyper-obsessive youtube culture that teenagers fall for. I'm not saying it was amazing, or even original. Just that it was pretty okay.
@@ConnerMello2 I mean, it could've been worse
I think the problem is the execution. If they had been developed as much as Handsome Jack, I think they could have been awesome. Just imagine: the streamers could put out RUclips vlogger-style hit pieces on the playable characters in order to get their followers to hate you. They could rally their followers to take on particular builds in order to exploit your weaknesses and take you down. They could do "collabs" with the other bosses in the game in order to further develop the other bosses and their own characters. And they could keep talking to you in charming, funny ways that you love to hate, a la Handsome Jack. I think the premise is good, and they really could have been awesome if they were used properly.
Boyfriend: You did it :o! :D
Girlfriend: YEAH I DID, KISS MY BUTT
*died*
She has become one of us. Im so proud.
you have the best fitting memes playing for your stories and i love it!
I can't express how happy your content makes me, never been this hooked on a channel. It's all so well written and presented.💯
I love how u use the hulk n antman clip! Perfect!
thank god this was in my recommended, this is so funny and good, now i'm subbed!!
Honestly you guys as great. I have been watching since the beginning of the channel and it’s so nice to see as your quality content has grown so has your views. Never change your style.
Just discovered this channel and subbed immediately!! This is awesome and hilarious reviewing...and it's honest , I love it
*5.3 user score*
"I'm dying!"
when you put the clip of Bruce Banner giving Scott a shitty gun while he kept a good one I laughed so loud omg. Thank you for sharing this video!
EDIT: You know, as Shelby's abilities as a gamer is progressing, I can't help but think of the moment she'd win at something against Matt and I want to see his reaction when this happens LMAO.
I beat him in a duel in Borderlands 3! But to be fair I had a dog friend helping and a shotgun that shot spirit bombs.
My husband and I haven’t finished it yet, but so far we’ve had a really good time with Borderlands 3!
I'm so glad I found your channel. Thanks for the many laughs 😂🙌
You being "loot greedy" reminds me so much when me and my dad would play Diablo together. He would be over there tanking while I ran grabbed the gold 😂😂 best times.
I need a Tales from Borderlands Girlfriend Reviews now !
I still cant believe that the Borderlands adaption is maybe Telltales best game... like how the hell did that happen
Definitely a Girlfriend Reviews game
I agree that game was REALLY good the writing and story in it was prolly the best Borderlands story and definitely better than the story in BL3
"In all of my year..." XD
Also, the writing was amazing! So many laughs.
This is one of your best videos so far! Keep it up!
I love that you used Cara mia addio from Portal 2 at the end
"Ooh, a Halloween event. Do you wanna play? Definitely."
👍 Loved it!
4:54 character development in it's most raw form
Wow. First time I have ever watched your channel and these might be the best game reviews I've ever watched. Great content and humor, keep it up!
I have a feeling that once I play it when it hits steam, it'll need a friend to be truly funny.
Good luck that I have two that would LOVE to play it as soon as it comes on steam.
To be fair, if you click through the trending page...
I mean the videos aren't that far off.
LivingEidolon that's..... sadly accurate.
@@orhblin
Yep, satire is only fun until you ox is gored
Gotta play Tales from the Borderlands now, the story is the best story in borderlands for sure
Maybe my favourite video from your channel so far ! Keep it up guys you're amazing !
I recently discovered your channel and I absolutely love your content. Subbed.
As a Canadian the use of that particular Trailer Park Boys clip (Chiefs Kiss).
Also as far as the writing goes I feel a lot of people forgot just how much work Borderlands 2 writer Anthony Burch put into actually building an actual universe and populating it with memorable and funny characters. Its why the jump in quality from Borderlands 1 to 2 is so high and why in my mind this one falls flat in that regard.
@Corey Stokely I agree.
Did he leave or get fired or something?
@@Zone-dv4gm He left most seemed to have left when Gearbox got to be to much for people.
To be fair. That second jump was objectively easier to hit
This video no so randomly showed up on my feed (because I’m a huge borderlands fan), and this video is hilarious. Subscribed!!
Yay. I was waiting for this!
7:26 Bullet Spongeboss is my favorite Nickelodeon character from the 90s
This is funny considering there is now a bullet spongeboss in the Krieg DLC
WAIT, was that a matt's hair review? 1:03
Yes
Loved it :D Waiting for more reviews.
can't wait for the WOW classic review, damn you guys are taking a while to do it but I guess it does take a bit to hit 60, good luck and can't wait!!
I had to rewind to 0:40 at least 6 times. That was hilarious! I love this channel.
Hahahaha I lost it with the Steve Harvey part
Omg, I love these videos. They make me laugh out loud and smile. I enjoy seeing people enthusiastic about gaming...and most importantly LOOT!!❤️❤️
That sound clip ‘Mia cara’ from Portal 2 was beautiful. Thank you.
It is I!,back for your weekly serving of
"Please play Persona5 sometime"
Club representation,
Checking in. We meet every Wednesday for snacks and anticipation of Royal.
I’m sure they will eventually but the game take 120 hours and easily 180 to 200 if you take your time and grind.
I read the it is I part on invader zim voice 🤣😂
How you have the time to play and edited your video and release them in short time?
The answer is barely lol. This went up two days later than normal and immediately after export!
They prolly' had a review copy so they get the game sooner to do all this
@@RED_XLR nope! We just regular folk
@@GirlfriendReviews oh yea i didn't notice this video was out like yesterday thought it was out soon after BL3 released. Great vid btw :)
This review was just gold! References, commentary, writing, just on point! My favorite one in awhile!
Thank you GR Reviews - I liked the first 2, and was wondering about this one, it being some time post release, and the game likely being on sale by now. You saved me my hard earned lollies, and I thank you. You made me go, "Hol'up a minute", when it mattered.
I feel like J Jonah Jameson laughing at Peter for Boycotting.
That community scene is perfect for everything
The reference clips you guys use are next level 😂
I love that they added the community and parks and rec meme in there
I play borderlands before and honestly the loot system drives me crazy because I am a hoarder I hoard everyone every weapon I find it doesn't matter if it's cheap old used or anyting I don't care I will take it and I will sell it
It has taken me a very long time to break that habit, and I'm not even all the way there. The Lost Loot system does help in that regard, though.
How is it hoarding if you sell them?
Gambling/borderlands 3 addicts: am I having fun or do I have a problem?
Also borderlands 3 addicts: yes
Love your content! Please do Mass Effect, you've show so many snippets of it in your previous videos!
i loved that you used the trevor clip from trailer park boys XD 3:22
In b4 Randy Pitchford sends 2 goons over to your house to "ask questions" about chairgate
"OOOOHHH this gun shoots cheeseburgers!"
Me and my girlfriend just discovered this channel today and I'm ashamed I haven't seen it before. You 2 are very relatable for us being that my girlfriend is also not so great at video games but loves to watch my play some games and has actually helped me solve several puzzles before. Keep up the great work.
Side note: I personally would love to see yall do some videos on more classic older games like Chrono Trigger, Castlevania, or some older Final Fantasy games.
RELATIONSHIP GOALS!!! Oh yeah nice review and editing!
Yeah, everyone else here is right - you WANT to play Tales From The Borderlands. Possibly the best thing Telltale ever made.
“In all of my year pretending to be a games journalist” 🤣
Love the "Portal" tune near the ending
portal music at the end is a nice touch
-boyfriend acts mildly annoyed-
-boyfriend 2 seconds later-
I'm sorry I love you
Get me someone like this
I wish all girlfriends were this supportive of gaming. Earned my sub!
first vid of yours ive seen. i love i
your content
Your edits are legendary
Would you play call of Juarez Gunslinger/Bound in Blood?
"There's an art to the fart."
Just found your channel. Wow your content is great!!
best thing in this video is the Portal 2 "kara mira" background music playing near the 7 minute mark
