Very true.

Not may have the sway that this game has had in the memorabilia market.

I am not sure i know another game director by name as well as I know the name Ken Levine and Bioshock (this could be a personal thing I suppose).

Also things may have changed up some business wise in Take Two, who knows really. They seemed to do a lot of Borderlands stuff as well but the items did not sell nearly as well, so that is probably why they did not keep making tons of new items (I know they made quite a few though).


But I am simply speculating and giving my opinion... none of us know the inner workings (unless there is a Take Two/Irrational/2K employee here who wants to weigh in).

Strange thing is the borderlands store is run by Treehouse

Always wondered why irrational got their own store

Guess Bioshock merchandise is a lot more profitable or something
