Issue 239 of Edge, featuring Borderlands 2 on the cover, will hit UK newsagents on March 14 and should already be arriving at subscribers' doors. Our six-page preview of Gearbox's love letter to gun fetishists includes a design showcase and in-depth hands-on.
We also take a close look at the ramifications of Double Fine's Kickstarter success story, speak to Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi to discover why he has returned to directing, and Hip-hop poet Scroobius Pip tells us which games have occupied his spare time.
We investigate the psychological games used in free-to-play to lever funds from your wallet, then speak to Twisted Metal creator David Jaffe about his storytelling philosophy. There's also an exclusive extract from Jacked: The Unauthorised Behind-The-Scenes Story Of Grand Theft Auto, the new book from Masters Of Doom author David Kushner.
We profile Warner Bros' Laura Fryer, take another spin aroundWipeout's Sol2 course and consider the importance of Jade's camera in Beyond Good & Evil. Finally, we take another opportunity to enjoy the austere artwork of Mirror's Edge, visitParadox Interactive, and discover how Rock Band came to pass in our Making Of series.
There's also an extensive selection of previews and reviews, of course, including Dragon's Dogma, Dead Or Alive 5, ShootMania Storm, Mass Effect 3, Syndicate and Journey.
