'Battleborn' mashup of styles doesn't quite come together

Under the shadow of terms like mashup lies the understanding that spirited things can happen when once-separated elements are knotted together. When the union is a happy one, new genres can spring forth. (Funk is a good example.) But when a matchup is less than ideal, the results can be akin to a dry elevator pitch. Alas, “Battleborn,” the new game from Gearbox Software, slots into this category.http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805584.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:yIl2AUoC8zA ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805585.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:F7zBnMyn0Lo ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805586.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:V_sGLiPBpWU ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805587.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:qj6IDK7rITs ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805588.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:gIN9vFwOqvQ ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/805589.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=SAnqapw6MvU:8i8vdxP3RMY:QXVau8BzmBE )
