Borderlands, Borderlands 2 - belthesar - 09-24-2012 11:36 PM
When Borderlands fan Michael John Mamaril passed away from cancer at age 22, his friend Carlo reached out to Gearbox Software and asked CL4P-TP to eulogize Michael. They did so, releasing a sound clip of the lovable unicycling robot, as well as included Michael as an NPC in the town of Sanctuary.
