    The Walking Dead
    Has anyone played The Walking Dead game? Only the first episode is available at the moment. I think they're going to be released on a monthly basis, probably.

    I grabbed the PC version and my overall impression is that it's really well done, though.

    Throughly impressed with it. Although Telltales previous efforts have differed in quality drastically from one episode to the next, I am hopeful that they'll be able to keep the quality high with this series

    Doesn't look like it follows TWD storyline so just piggybacking off of the brand name.

    I enjoyed the first episode, still a bit sore that Jurassic Park isn't coming out for X360 in Europe, despite the reviews I would still have bought it.

    Played the demo and thought it was dull as dishwater. Heres hoping the full game is more challenging than that was.

    The games are made with the blessing of the original creator and are to be considered canon, unlike the TV show.

    Get it for PC, doesn't take a gaming PC to run it.

    I might do that. Last time I checked on the Mac steam store it was full-price...wonder if the free game code I got when my original pre-order was cancelled by TT will still work?

    Edit: Holy ****, my code was still valid and allowed me to download the full season free of charge! Yaaaay

    I pre-ordered Jurassic Park from Telltale, but then it got delayed so they refunded all the orders and gave everyone a code to download any game for free. I thought the code would only let me download one episode and I had forgotten all about it.

    Anyway, free $30 game.

    Saw this thread pretty late, but I really enjoyed the first episode.

    I've been looking for some solid release dates for the second and according to what I've seen, it should have been released by now? And I can't find anything online to counter the release dates I've seen (similar to the ones posted above). I'm seriously checking pretty much every day!

    I'm in the exact same predicament . Telltale were meant to have it finished but they're still working on it. Hopefully it comes out this month. I really wish they finished all the episodes before releasing the first one :sigh:

    Yeah I'm excited about the series in general so it's annoying that they're missing the release dates: I mean, monthly is hardly ideal as it is really.
    And I doubt there will be any form of compensation...

    Goodness, I'm beginning to sound like an awful moan

    It's third person where you interact with certain objects and people. It's a very narrative-focused game (with dialogue choices).

    I'm thinking of getting it now on the PS3... I love zombies! Is it definitely worth it?

    id say its worth it as i love the walking dead, more about interaction with people rather than fighting the zombies though.

    Has anyone downloaded episode 2? Oh wait, I have a PS3 and can't but everyone else can. I'm really annoyed now, episode 2 was meant to come in June, it didn't and now it's not on the EU PSN store :sigh:
