It's one of the best TellTale games out -- a great resurgence after the failed Jurassic Park. Have you not played many adventure games?

No, not really. Like I said, though... The story is pretty damn good so far.

Season 3 won't begin until October, just like season 2. Should be around Halloween. I have a buddy who made the same mistake.

Played part 1 and 2...i've enjoyed it. Only $20 for season pass and it feels like the show, and a bit more action in part 2. If you expect shootem up non stop action then dont bother. If you like story and the feel of wondering if you'll make it past certain points then get it. It feels like the show

Yup. And it's nice that your decisions are actually meaningful and carry over throughout.

Yeah, I like the choices you have and to make them quickly. Def. some replay value.

Are there other Tell Tale games on ps3 worth a look?

Yup -- The Secret of Monkey Island, of course... and the Sam & Max series are fantastic. Some great humor in these titles.
I'm assuming you've played Monkey Island at some point though -- the original, I mean.
Here's a screen from the remastered edition. You can switch back to the original version at any point in the game by hitting "select".

Oh yes i absolutely grew up with that series and loved it! I totally forgot that they did that. I actually have the remastered version downloaded from steam that i got for $5 like a year ago but didnt get too far into it. One of the greatest series of all time. Love it! Sam and Max i've never played

Season 3 trailer debuted at Comic Con

season 3 is gonna be tits, can't wait

Looks pretty faithful to the comic. Didn't see Tyrese though. That sucks.

Yeah, I've felt the same way for a while, but I would still be happy if they brought on an actual Tyreese. Especially if he were played by one of these guys.

Im pretty sure they always said there were going to be surprises.

I would too. I heard Kirkman regretted having Rick get the governor special so I doubt the show does it. Although I would like to see it happen.

They've got that angle covered with Merle.

Holy sh*t, that looks badass!

Anybody know how many episodes they're doing for season 3?

16

http://blogs.amctv.com/the-walking-d...nouncement.php

Yeah I doubt it happens in the show too. That would be harder to pull off on the show than the comics I think.

How did Herschel grow a beard so quickly?

And how does Rick manage to keep his neck shaved and a trimmed one day growth on his face every day?

Hershel looks like a Civil War general now.

Or Colonel Sanders. Maybe a new franchise; Kentucky Fried Brains.

ROFL Can't wait for October.

all some people need is about a week or 2 and that shit is insanely long.

Then again, how far down the line is that? then there is, so what its tv.

Has anyone played The Walking Dead games yet? I'm downloading both episodes right now. Just curious if they're as good as people claim. I'll find out on my own soon enough, just wondering if anyone else can vouch for it.

I have dl'ed the first two..

A little action but mainly story driven but feels like the show. I've enjoyed them so far, ep 2 is much better.

only 97 days :(

It'll be here before you know it. Time flies by now, and I hear it flies by faster the older we get.

I'm only 26.

...weiner...sooo....hard.

Sorry for the late bump but I just finished watching the second half of season 2 and then read this thread from where I left off (144 pages!).

I've been wondering how they are going to handle Carl. The problem with child actors is they tend to grow up faster than their characters. Even in the season 3 preview, he looked significantly older.

Also, earlier in the thread, someone mentioned zombie animals. You might check out Brian Keene's The Rising and City of the Dead. It has a unique (to me, anyway) take on the zombie mythos. In the books, any mammal, bird, fish or reptile comes back to life once dead, with the sole purpose of eradicating anything alive. Also, the body of the dead continue to decay, eventually trapping the undead entity in a useless vessel.

Pretty fun (though grim) read.

Hey Late to the PArty watched seaon one on netflicks where can I find the rest online to catch up?

I love this show and can't wait...

You looking for a legal link, cause I don't have one of those.

I'm only 29, but haven't you noticed time going by so much faster than when we were kids? I used to think Christmas would never come. Now its always damn Christmas!

Should be available on Netflix within a month since its coming out on dvd at the end of this month. It's incredible...second season is great.

The comic series is amazing too.

October 14th will be a great day...drive to Tampa to watch the Chiefs beat the Bucs...hit up Taco Bus after the game...then back home for walking dead season 3 premier.
.

The comic series is great. I had already downloaded most of the 100 issues when I recently found most of them are available for checkout at my public library.

thanks for the updated trailer Buck!!! can't REP same post twice!!!! i'll hit you later, bro!

PM we the link or links you are using.

sent

I tried playing it but the controller I use on PC was messing up with this particular game. It always kept making my cursor go to the top of the screen. I would just use a mouse and keyboard, but I have my PC hooked up to the big screen TV in the living room and no suitable spot to use a mouse and keyboard.

HA! I knew Merle would be alive. I got into an argument with a co-worker after season 1 when I said that he would show up alive some time down the road. He kept insisting "Nah, he's dead dude. No way will he show up again". Of course I called bullshit. I'm glad I was right.

It's also good to see someone got smart and grabbed a riot shield. That would have been the first thing I went for.

Entertainment Weekly Has Four Revealing New WALKING DEAD Covers!!

Wow, "revealing" is more like "spoilerish".

They film this near Atlanta very close to where I live. I always say I am going to go down there and try and be an extra but I never do. I really need to get off my ass and go.

If you watched any of the season 3 trailers it's not really a spoiler.

Thanks It is so much better being able to watch stuff like this one after another

Yeah, I haven't watched any of the season 3 trailers. I'm not complaining, personally. I just know there are a lot of people in this thread who are super-sensitive to spoilers, and was giving them a heads up.

Yeah, you really do.

And obligatory "pics or it didn't happen" comment.

Episode 3 of the video game has been released. I'm probably about 3/4 of the way through it. Some tedious points, some WTF moments. Mostly good. I still don't think the decisions you make alter the storyline all that much.

Some might be interested

http://www.avclub.com/articles/read-...b-issue,84295/

It changes a little, usually the outcome is ultimately the same (for instance, in episode 3, the situation with Katjaa, Duck, and Kenny in the woods has the same outcome no matter what) . I play 2 separate files so I can make different choices on each to see what happens.

I did the same thing with 2 files - one pro Kenny, one pro Lilly.

I really dislike the new people.

So, I played and beat the first installment of TWD on my 360.

You mean I've now missed part two and three just came out?

I'm filled with so much fail.

Yea but Chuck is cool. He made really good points about planning and Clementine.

I also switch up whose life i save when it comes to it in both files too.

Do you read the comics?

For the fans of the comic series...issue #102 comes out today :thumb:

Oh....and season 2 comes to NetFlix on September 30th!

So, season 3 starts in a couple weeks and....season 4 is already official!

BAZINGA!!!!!!

Dudes countdown in the opening post is off.

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/58648

The next two episodes are a mammoth improvement over the last six.

Were new writers hired over the hiatus? Did AMC approve a bigger budget? Because suddenly all the dialogue telling us what we already know about everybody’s feelings is gone.

All the storytelling is moving a lot faster, there are some major plot turns in the next two episodes and there’s plenty of zombie mayhem.

(The series did put at least one new writer in its writers’ room. Episode two is credited to Nichole Beattie, a veteran of “John From Cincinnati,” “Prime Suspect” and “Sons of Anarchy.”)

I’m not permitted to get into the plot at this point, but I can tell you we’re getting an all-new title sequence from which Frank Darabont’s executive producer credit has been scrubbed away.

More after the jump.

Has anyone downloaded and played the Walking Dead game? Apparently it is pretty damn good. I just want to hear from any of you if you like it or not.

It is if you understand what you are getting. The game is not L4D2, it's not action packed, or anything like that. It is a gritty story that you get to interact with.

The choices you make affect you to a point, but the main story is going to happen no matter what. It does put you in some awkward decision making situations, and in chapter 3 there was a point that I thought was pretty poignant. Once you get there, I would love to see what you thought about it.

Altogether, I would say they have been enjoyable, and each episode about 2-3 hours long.

Pretty much this. At first I was like, "meh" but it's grown on me. The story is really compelling. It's worth the money, for sure.

Why do people make binocular scenes never take the time to look through a pair?

how is Oct 14, 23 days away?

In your situation it is probably worth it. The biggest complaint has been the release dates. The game was sold as a 5 part game with monthly episodes. So far they havent' kept to the monthly releases which has a lot of people angry.

http://blogs.amctv.com/newsletter/ar...tm_term=220254

anybody check out webisodes from last season? Worth the time or a giant infomercial?

I embedded the first one a few posts above. Didn't realize all four were available.

Just to keep them in one post...

Count down timer is off. Nice webisodes.

Haven't read the thread. I'm 6 episodes into season 2, is Shane's accent getting thicker? Not enjoying this season as much.

just wait, my friend!
