HG:
"There have been several attempts to make a worthwhile Game of Thrones video game, but nobody has been as suited to the task as Telltale Games. Their style of gameplay, revolving almost entirely around dialogue decisions, is a great match for the personal drama, politics, and backstabbing of the series. The company is a natural fit for the IP.
This game takes place after a certain major event from the end of the third season of the television show. It would be nearly impossible to discuss this story-focused game without spoiling some important plot points in the show up to and including that point. This review contains spoilers. It is inadvisable to read ahead or play the game without having watched up to episode 9 of season 3. You have been warned."

Danny at IGCritic notes down his personal most shocking deaths in games. Danny writes "When people speak of the most shocking video game deaths or the saddest video game deaths, it’s a sure bet that these five will be near the top of their list. After all, we spend hours upon hours with these characters"
Gears of War 3 for me. Just heartbreaking to see that brother hood being broken with Marcus losing his one close friend like that. I don't know to many ppl who didn't choke up.
Game of Thrones has enthralled fans through its hit HBO television series and the George R. R. Martin books. The action is gritty and the political drama intriguing. Most important to the series’ success is that the characters illicit an emotional response for their duplicity, occasional knuckleheaded decisions, and brazen acts of cruelty. The winding plot with its multiple perspectives and intersecting storylines lends itself well to a video game.
