For now, enjoy this trailer: |

http://www.tpwwforums.com/showthread...121269&page=12 Think this will only be three parts, with Season 3 of TWD coming later in the year. I'm not expecting this to punch me in the feels but looking forward to it. |

Downloaded and played Ep. 1 yesterday. It had its moments, especially towards the end, but overall pretty "MEH" compared to TWD S1, S2 and 400 Days so far.

Finally got round to downloading this. I'm not expecting the kind of emotional gut punch we got in season one and two, as this three episode run just doesn't have the time to build stuff up like that, so just going to enjoy this for what it is.
The use of quick time during combat is pretty good, adds a different element to the game, although the frame rate and stuttering is pretty bad still. The artwork is top notch and the use of the comic scenes in the opening credits was pretty sweet. So far I find Oak incredibly annoying with his stereotypical bad English accent. |

Yeah, it did and I didn't feel like I developed any kind of bond or connection to any of the characters. That being said, the fact that it's only a 3-episode series, and the fact that I've already played Ep. 1 makes me feel as though I'm compelled to play through Ep.'s 2 & 3. Just not sure I'm ready for Ep. 2 so soon...why couldn't the release schedules for the original TWD gane S1 and/or S2 be like this? Maybe for S3? Crossing fingers but not holding my breath.

Are their puzzles or is it just quick time action and walking to the next horrible choice? These games used to be good.

Nope, just the same ol' walking over and minimal interaction scenes. After playing Life is Strange, Telltale games off late feel pretty short and foolproof in design.

Yeah, they're kinda not putting a ton of effort into this I think because they want to get working/working more to get TWD S3 ready ASAP. That being said, it may not see the light of day before 2017.

I loved those Walking Dead games, but there were this little things that just drove me mad.
Like there was this one thing, where you had to shoot the zombies (I think it was around that skiing resort or whatever) and there was supposed to be a cutscene right after you ran outta the bullets. It took me a few tries because you know, after running out of bullets I only pressed the LMB once or twice and it turned out you will die unless you click 3 times so the dumbass finally reazlies she's out and starts running or something. |

Yeah, there's been a few minor annoyances, but really nothing at all game breaking in some episodes of the main game series. But kinda just wished they hadn't thought of the mini-series so we can find out where Clem's story goes in S3. Guess patience really IS a virtue.

The frame rate slow down is my biggest annoyance. Never experienced it on the 360 versions of the games, but with the later games on One, it's getting worse with each episode.
Can't get emotionally invested with this mini-series, probably due to the fact it's just three episodes and we all know Michonne will come out fine at the end of it. |

Yeah. I'm not sure it's enough but they definitely cranked the drama up to 11 for episode 2.
I just can't help thinking that when I play ep. 3, it's going to be a huge letdown, but I hope TTG are able to prove me wrong. |

I wonder if this series/Michonne will ever tie in with Clementine and Wellington....

I don't think it will. All the better.
Also, in ep. 2, the framerate lag and random times when audio would cut out pissed me off to no end. |

Urgh, still? This has been happening for a while now, it completely ruins the scene/atmosphere.

Indeed it does. Seemed to be (IMHO, anyway) a lot less present in the first episode. Wonder WTF happened.

The Wolf Among Us is the games with gold this month. Haven't played this yet but does it suffer from the same frame rate issues?

Can't remember for sure, but it didn't seem to, at least not nearly as much. I did find the story pretty intriguing, though, if that matters.

It's pretty bad on Xbox One as well, that's what I've been playing on.

I enjoyed this episode more than the first one, but it was still relatively short compared to what we normally get. Was surprised by how brutal some moments were, the flare death in the garden being one of my favourite parts. The last chapter....damn...
Choices for the episode: SPOILER: show |

Yeah, should be out the 26th or 27th. Although in my case, it'll have to wait a week.
