Presentation

"Borderlands: Production Consistency Through Change"

2K Games and Gearbox Software's Borderlands is set to release in October, after going through huge changes in its
last year of development. This presentation will explore the relationship
between change and the producer's traditional goals of consistency and
predictability.  It will also cover the publisher's responsibility
in a developer-led medium.
