I don't see more than one particularly bad review from journalists from 
when it was released, most were glowing to high.

In fact for me it had lowered the ridiculously high amount of grinding 
for good weapons that 2 had that annoyed the hell out of me to the point 
I used a cheat to change the drop rates.  I was just over borderlands 
long before that point as there were far too many non-numbered 
bordlerlands games by that point.

Ah yes, always raise the price when there's any potential new interest. 
I'd bet on the movie being a flop from the way the trailers look, and it 
going back down on price shortly after though.
