Walking Dead – Video Game

The trailer reminded me a lot of a less exciting version of Dead Island.  Despite the bland trailer I actually have high hopes for this game.  TellTaleGames appears to have produced two Sam&Max games, in addition one Monkey Island game.  I really liked both those franchises when I was a kid.  I was bracing to see that they produced Day Of The Tentacle (Best cartoon game EVER), but sadly they did not.

Anyone rushing out to buy this game?

You Can pre-order it on their website for $22.49.

  1. I definitely like the approach they seem to be taking with this game. It seems similar to Left4Dead as well, but if I had to hold one expectation, I’d want it to have a sandbox world, where you’re free to move as you please with your band of survivors and hole up wherever you see fit.

    That would, in my eyes, make the game.

  2. It looked like the art and rendering had a comic book quality to them. Cool!

    1. Yea, it reminded me a lot of Borderlands.

    2. I do, far to many “realistic games” these days that still don’t get realism in a realistic light, really. This sets it different than most games (except left4dead, which has a mild cartoony feel).

  3. Unless there is a “whose baby is it?!” subplot, another male character with which to have an unrequited bromance, and enough DRAAAMMMMMAAAAA to raise the Titanic, this game will never measure up to the television show.

    This might be a good thing.

    You obviously never played Dead Island. An awesome trailer for a terrible game.

      Oh sorry I meant this trailer reminded me of a lot less exciting version of the dead island trailer, not the game. I agree that trailer was awesome.

  5. Dead Island was HOOOORRRRRIBBBBLE.. I gave it to a friend after trying to play it without wanting to gouge my fucking eyes out. Its slow, boring, and a complete waste of time. Leade pipes fall apart after you break a couple skulls? Fuck you. Guns? Theres maybe 5 of them on the whole damn island, and ammo is scarce. Upgrading weapons takes days of running around in circles trying to find parts for weapons that, when you use them, fall apart after smashing a couple zombies. The animations suck, the graphics are crap(XBOX360) and the controls… oh man.. dont get me started. You can swing, swing, jump, swing, turn around, walk, and drive on the opposite side. Two words for the makers… Fuck you.
