Someone may have posted this before, but I'm wondering if anyone else has played Borderlands and if they have come across Firefly references.

I started getting suspicious when Lilith the Siren had a "Firefly Class Mod" but what pushed me over the edge was the mission in which we have to kill a man named "Jaynis Kobb" who has set up his own little town called "Jaynistown". Anyone else find anything?

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


I have only recently started playing and haven't run into any references yet, but will most certainly be on the look out for them now.

So it looks like Borderlands has a bunch of pop culture references. This link only mentions one from firefly (Jaynistown). http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Borderlands_pop_culture_references
