Default The Walking Dead: The Game

Just buy this game, if you have an Xbox, PS3, PC, iPad or iPod then get it. It's probably the best game I've played all year and everyone should experience it. It's an episodic game meaning that it's split into five parts and each part is like a TV episode, the story and characters react and change depending on your actions. It's not an action packed game since the focus is on puzzles and character developement. I'm not doing a good job of explaining it but play it regardless, there's a retail version coming out in December so not having a console hooked up to the internet is no excuse.

Now excuse me while I go into a catatonic state brought on by uncontrollable feels while I recover from the ending.

is this a totally different game to the Episode one? or does it link in with it in anyway?

The Activision game is based on the TV Series and isn't related to this Walking Dead game.

The one you linked is an FPS, Telltale's game is more of an adventure/interactive drama.

Just seen the trailer for it now, that one looks like it's about Daryl and Merle before they met Rick's group

It's an FPS though, it won't stay true to what Walking Dead is. It'll probably end up like a Left 4 Dead clone.

Probably would be best if it was a RPG since their are so many Locations, Characters and small stories in the Series and you could make a huge map out of it but i think they'll have a few RPG elements in it anyway

That might work, I think what Telltale has done is the best way to go though. The game as a whole felt so true to the source material.
