The Walking Dead (Multi-platform)
The Walking Dead is an episodic video game based on Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comic book series for iOS, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game was developed by Telltale Games. The game is told through the episodes, with only first being released so far. Unlike typical zombie games such as Left 4 Dead, it is focused more on characterization and emotion, rather than action. The game features a mix of both adventure and action elements. The game is told from the point of view of a character named Lee Everett, who is able to interact with the other survivors and his actions will influence the the further plot. The game will be released in separate ensembles consisting of five episodes in total. * Episode 1 – A New Day - released in April 2012 * Episode 2 – Starved for Help - sometimes during June * Episode 3 – Long Road Ahead - TBA * Episode 4 – Around Every Corner - TBA * Episode 5 – No Time Left - TBA Spoiler for YouTube Game Trailer:
P.S. There is already a story trailer and few others as well, but I wouldn't recommend them as they contain spoilers in a form of a good surprise. Personally I found the first episode to be awesome. I highly recommend it. ^^

At first I was worried the whole episodic thing was a Starcraft-esqe jackass attempt to oversell the game but after checking Steam, the (very reasonable) price includes all 5. Sigh of relief that integrity isn't dead in the industry yet. *stares at Blizzard and EA*
To those of you that have played it: about how long was the first episode?

Well.... I'd say it's about 4-5 hours of gameplay from what I played. It really depends on how good you are at point and click games.

Thought I'd bump this up just to let people know that Episode 2 has been out since the 29th, and seeing as I just finished it... I'd advice everyone else to download it and play through it.
Spoiler for spoilers/don't read if you haven't beaten Ep. 2 yet:

Going into it in more depth...
Spoiler for spoilers for episode 2's story:
All in all, what I think they're going to do is have each episode build up a character's "good side", while playing another character as a "bad guy". As episode 1 had Kenny look like the good people, and Lily and her father as the bad guys..... but episode 2 showed it the other way around.... so I can't wait to see what Episode 3 has~

I also called the St. John's motivations correctly.

Ugh, there isn't even a release date for episode 3 yet; it sucks, but I'm prepared for another 2 month hiatus. |
