Gearbox Forces Claptrap to Help Man Propose

[The Youth Counselor]

Okay Gearbox jumped up into my top 10 developers list.

After Opposing Force this is the most awesome thing Gearbox has ever done. I can't imagine a video game company making a marriage proposal video for a random fan, seems they're even cooler than I thought. And yeah, Borderlands was a pretty kickass game as well.

I watched the video 3 times, laughed each time. Afterwords I closed my browser to discover my random wallpaper and updated. To a borderlands picture.

Clearly something magical has just happened. Excuse me while I buy the DLC and own face.

 

[Baralak]

This was certifiably AWESOME!!!

 

[gundamrx101]

I?d say yes and my name isn?t even Tora.
On a side note I want a portal themed proposal.

Where GlaDOS betrats both of you? Just send Valve an email and I'm sure Gabe shall have it done. In 10 years.

OT: Go Gearbox! Supporting the fans makes everyone happy

 

[Temah]

That was amazing, what a thing to do.

 

[OaKleIgHy]

Gearbox awesomeness ensues...

Wouldn't happen to be Anthony would it?
Ionno, maybe I'm imagining things...

Ahh I thought it was Mikey. Would make sense since that's who he works for =)

OMG This is great. The video itself, but also the contributions in the thread. Claptrap needs to take this on the road.

 

[(insert obscure reference here)]

I loled, "Skaggy style" and "Robots can't contract STDs." Best of luck to Ben and Tora. Hope she said yes, getting a claptrap to do such a thing isn't easy as shown here.

I had the same feelings. Would Mikey know?

Probably Anthony, he does write for Gearbox.

This proposal was downright hilarious. Even though Claptrap proposed the 'enticing' proposition of Skaggy style and made the unappealing comment on herpes, she still said yes. Good for the both of them.

On a side note:

You. Yes you. Your Avatar is awesome. It took me a full five minutes for my brain to start functioning again after noticing your simple yet awesome avatar.

The management would like to apologise for any time lost whilst gazing upon the avatar. However, we regret to inform you that we are unable to take any responsibility for said lost time, as warning notices were displayed clearly around the avatar. Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.

Claptrap is such a dick. <3

 

[Tony2077]

well this may be one of the most interesting ways i've seen and she said yes that's good to hear

 

[BlackEagle95]

I might get Borderlands just for this. I was interested earlier, but this was awesome of them. Rarely see a company willing to do these random things just for the fun of it.

I thought it was Mikey!

 

[WorldCritic]

Nice, one of the better videogame proposals I've seen.

 

[Nanaki316]

I wish my boyfriend would force a game company to do something like this for me. That's so awesome! Super funny!

Me too, I share your pain

 

[Abedeus]

If only the in-game Claptraps were this useful.

They DO expand your inventory...

Do they? I tried playing it recently, got about an hour in and decided to return to Bethesda open-world RPGs. I'll have to remember that next time I try.

Borderlands is an open-world RPG?

I thought it was Diablo/Titan Quest/Dungeon Siege/Loki + Duke Nukem.

 

[Nedoras]

Hahaha that was completely awesome. The people over at Gearbox are really nice to have actually taken the time to do this for a fan, and that makes me smile

 

[Smooth Operator]

Too bad they didn't do comedy like this ingame, awesome vid tho.
