When [Damien Munoz] watched [his] first episode of AMC’s The Walking Dead, [he] was surprised how story driven a show based around a zombie apocalypse could be. Then, [Damien] read [his] first issue of the comic series to feel the same way. A fan of Telltale Games, thanks especially to their well-adapted Back to the Future game series, [Damien] immediately grew with excitement when [he] found out they were developing an episodic adventure game based on the series. However, [he] did not expect to love the game as much as I did…prepare for spoilers.

Before the announcement that a heavily narrative focussed Walking Dead video game was announced in 2012, Telltale games was a development studio that not particularly well known. Despite putting out other similar properties with Back to the Future: The Game and Jurassic Park: The Game, the products were largely met with a very mixed and ultimately tepid response from the public. The rampant acclaim and runaway success reached with The Walking Dead launched the developer into one of the most anticipated and favourable studios out there with one revolutionary product.
I think the walking dead story telling is amazing. I really love the games and think that they bring the respect of gaming story telling up in the world of entertainment in general :)
A reflection on the business perspective of Telltale Games.
Cause of Ben! If Ben didn't evoked any emotion(mostly RAGE) then salute to you.
I just wanted Ben to redeem himself, the poor bastard.
But yeah, Walking Dead has been my goty all year, but man, im playing Far Cry 3 (PC) now and its some of the best fun ive had in years.
It's your GOTY because you want hits, which is most likely why this article got made. Not buying it.
