‘Strip the flesh, salt the wound’

Current-generation console owners have been able to get theirBorderlandsfix viaThe Handsome Collection, but the game that started it all is notably missing from the HD rerelease. Soon enough, Xbox One users will have a way around that:Borderlandswill be supported by theXbox One Backward Compatibilityprogram when it launches for the general public.

Though it was only officially announced today onMajor Nelson’s blog, we have seen hints of it in the past. Along with the written list of currently available games,Borderlandsshows up in apiece of promotional artfor the program. Going by that, it’s probably safe to expectHalo 3,Halo Wars, andFable IIto show up in the near future.
