(XBLA) The Walking Dead

[Noir]

We just recorded this week's podcast and talking about this game with DogEyed just highlighted how much I really enjoyed it. It does soo many things right and just leaves me crying out for more point n click games on the big screen rather than handhelds.

This ... is a point n click?

In many ways yes. God I want episode 2 already.

This ... is a point n click?

Yes. I think it's mainly the lack of console point and click games that makes this one so good too.

Maybe it's out tomorrow?
I'd rather they had a time table... just "in the next few weeks" would be enough

End of June apparently....

Episode 2 is now out!
HOOORAH! that only game I want to play right now

Finally!

Not up for EU PSN sadly, its still TBD. Bugger

Out for PC and US PSN on Friday.

Holy fuck! The opening scene in episode 2!

Some really tough decisions to make already. The fact the dialogue choices are timed is such a simple idea but it doesn't half add to the sense of tension.

Stopped to watch the football, but cant wait to get back into this. 9 weeks is far too long between episodes though!

Bought it, will wait till weekend though as dawn guard for the next few days

Out for PC and US PSN on Friday.

Yeh, thats not EU PSN though.

Fuck me! That finale with the the food and the car was heartbreaking, and hacking the guys leg off at the start... Damn. What happens if you just leave him? Also, I don't suppose anybody could tell me how things play out if you saved Doug in episode one rather than Carley?

It was even better than episode one, and seemed a bit longer too. I didn't like the bit with the tractor though, it seemed a bit too much like actually playing a game to me, and where the fuck did those zombies come from? They were not the same ones I pushed off the fence.

Anybody else get some crazy stutter/lag in places? I don't remember episode one being like that.

I've not completed it yet so I won't read the spoilers but I am getting that lag and some sync issues. Ep1 was the same for me.

Done! Awesome stuff again. This episode really didn't pull any punches. Some of the decisions where really tough to make. Please don't make me have to wait so long for episode 3!

Only time It was really bad for me was during the cinematic for the next episode.

Some of the achievements have glitched for me. My Gamer Card says I only have 14/16 achievements yet when I go into the walking dead achievement page it says I've unlocked them all.
