Borderlands 2's Loot Hunt Is Over, Here's The Rundown
Since October 11, Gearbox has been giving players a chance each week to earn a variety of prizes during a $100,000 Loot Hunt. Here is a quick stats breakdown showing what players have been doing all this time.
During Borderland 2's Loot Hunt, over 516,812,670 enemies were killed, 28,651,011 guns were looted, and a gamer named Christopher Kuehne took home the top prize of $50,000.

Our Take
I'm impressed that Borderlands 2 has such a strong community; it's likely because 2K and Gearbox have continued to release DLC and run programs like this that the game has such a fervent following. I wish more developers were able to support their titles after launch like this.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
