10 Video Game Side Missions That Stole The Show

5. You Are Cordially Invited - Borderlands 2

Tiny Tina is introduced in Borderlands 2 as a hyper-energetic thirteen-year-old genius with a keen eye for explosives. However, behind her character lies a tragic backstory that players get an insight into in her You Are Cordially Invited: Tea Party side mission.

When Tiny Tina was younger, her mother and father had been sold into a human trafficking ring by a psychotic man named Flesh-Stick. The You Are Cordially Invited mission revolves around helping Tina get revenge on this villain.

In the mission, players have to lure Flesh-Stick to where Tina has set up an elaborate tea party, in which he has been slated as being the 'guest of honour'. Once he's been led to Tina's factory, he will be sucked into a pipe and next be seen at the table of her tea party.

The final part of this memorable side mission sees players having to fend off three separate waves of baddies as Tina repeatedly electrocutes Flesh-Sticks, before he is eventually fried for good.

Part hilarious, part deeply unsettling, You Are Cordially Invited does a stellar job in showcasing all of the twisted craziness that comes with Borderlands 2.
