After a very long wait, The Walking Dead has made its glorious console debut in Australia, New Zealand and Brazil. This marks the first time that the award-winning series has expanded beyond the mobile market and PC in those regions - and all five episodes are now available, including the Season Pass for PS3.

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.
great, so they finally release it after i cave and buy it on the american store.
this sux because now will my decisions carry over to the next chapter or not?
plus it only got an ma15+ rating anyway? god thats stupid, they should have just submitted it anyway.
but its not their fault, its our stupid rating system for not having an r rating and the ridiculousness of a dev thinking a game would be banned when the tv show which is way more graphic doent have to worry about such scrutiny.

You realise you can just create a fake XBL/PSN account for other countries and just simply download from there.
Australian government are a bunch of morons and they are stupid if they think they can stop me from grabbing the games that I want that aren't or weren't available in the country earlier on.
Government finally grew a pair in getting the R18+ rating, now I can stop importing games that were banned.
