Wow if you have not played Borderlands and like coop PvE you are in for a treat.
Play BL1 and BL2 1st they are cheap as chips. Not played pre sequel myself. But I hear it is not as.good as made.by different team

Don't let hearsay put you off this. If you like Borderlands, you'll like The Pre-Sequel. I think I played it back to back about 5 times and enjoyed it more than Borderlands 2.

I enjoyed the PS too, though I thought BL2 was the best of the 3.

One issue with BL co-op is that the loot is shared. I hated that, which put me off playing with randos. If you have a couple of friends, it's a very good experience, although you'll need good dedicateion, and a few hours to get through it properly. In BL3 co-op, the loot will be assigned to each players individually, much better IMO and stops loot rats.
BL1 is so long ago I can't remember much of it, BL2 is the refined borderlands experience IMO, and you can start with that. BL1 is OK, a bit 'slow'. Pre-sequel is good enough, and can be a laugh. The BL2 DLCs are mostly good too (Tiny Tina, Torgue, The Pirate one, ...).
The starting campaign is quite easy. True Vault Hunter Co-op is how it's suppose to be played IMO. It's casual enough, and challenging enough. UVHM can be frustrating, and will require farming for items, especially in OP levels.

I prefer b1 goty to them all, the look of the game much better than the others as well, played like 40 hours in bl2, but wanted to try bl1 before bl3 come out, done like 30 hours and only level 20 so far, but i search and explore everything, i reckon at least a year before i get around to playing bl3 when its out.

I don't trust that site as far as I can throw it. People don't even have to play the game to post an opinion. I bet half on Steam have never played past chapter 1. The vault hunters in TPS are fantastic. The settings and story are pretty cool for the Borderlands fan with a lot of insight into BL2.

TPS is fine, it was just what I needed when BL3 obviously was going to take a few more years.
I was missing playing a few BL3 maps and after not finding them in BL2 or the expansions, I realised they are in the TPS! Story with Jack was interesting too. Must replay it actually, if I escape BL2...

I still never played her past level 4. I spent nearly all my time with Wilhelm as Saint and Wolf are like playing with Bloodwing from BL1.

Having played B1, B2 and TPS, I have enjoyed them all, but Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep was special for me. I find her character both compelling and disturbing in equal measure!

And what's the best thing about TPS? No S-L-A-G. That mechanic in Borderlands 2 became such a pain in the arse during the True Vault Hunter Mode.

I quite liked TPS and playing as claptrap actually removes that often irritating oxygen mechanic so I recommend doing that. Also you just get to be claptrap which is always a good thing

Been playing the first Borderlands game (the new enhanced one) which is much better to play now. All the same bugs are there so they've altered some bits and not fixed anything. The old "drop through the floor in Fort Knoxx" trick still works so I had a good mooch about. Can you believe I found a Pestilent Defiler at level 22 and kept using it until I found a new version at level 65. There was no other weapon (for me as a Gunslinger Mordecai) that even came close.
