The Walking Dead ... VideoGame? !!

Post  v Couttsy v on 30th March 2011, 3:13 pm

Quickly becoming a cross-media pop-culture phenom, we learned last month that The Walking Dead would be making the inevitable jump to video games. Now, Robert Kirkman, creator of the original comic book and the highly-popular TV series has dropped some details on the upcoming shambling-shooter of a game. Set for a release this Fall to coincide with the return of the TV series for its second season, Telltale Games, best known for adventure games like Sam & Max and the recent Back to the Future, will soon release The Walking Dead as an episodic game, running multi-platform. In an interesting twist, the game will actually adhere to the canon of the comic series, rather than the acclaimed TV series on which it's tentpolled. While no substantive details have been released about the game, Kirkman does make some promises about where it's heading. Hint: It will involve a lot of gory messes.
According to Kirkman:
“With the episodic nature of how they make the game, they can make a level and release a level, then make another level and release that level, so the game should come out in pretty rapid succession because of that."
Adding: "You'll be playing as characters from The Walking Dead for sure, and different levels you'll play as different people, so we'll see.”
And not that anyone would have dared to expect some ESRB-influenced tame excuse for a video game, but Kirkman did go out of his way to reiterate to gamers that this one's not going to be for folks whose most violent video game experiences involve slicing into the woods in Wii Sports Golf.
”Yeah, I don't think we can avoid (making it graphic) with something like this. I would expect that kind of stuff.”
Do you have any expectations for this still mysterious Walking Dead game?



This Has Made Me Happy

the only game closest to this (kinda) has to be Undead Overrun DLC for Red Dead

Ugh, do they really have to make a game out of The Walking Dead? It's a character-driven story. In fact, the zombies are basically just there to advance the character stories and provide tension/conflict. I can't imagine how they would be able to connect it to the comic plot line well enough to warrant the license. Hacking and Slashing zombies would just be shameful, I mean, games can have good stories, but they have to make the gameplay relevant. I expect bad things.

Filming for Season Two starts in June. Also, Tell Tale makes Adventure Games, so I'm going to assume The Walking Dead is going to be something similar to that.

You can't be entirely sure, but it's most likely that it will suck.

from what I read in game informer, it's going to be more of an interactive comic book than a game.
I'll see what its like before I buy it though.

There is a 97% chance this game will turn out bad. Games based on movies almost never work out, and this has been proven.

Can't wait for season 2 btw
