Telltale Games

Ja1862 · 01/02/2012, 03:43 pm

Will we be able to walk around as the character in this game?

Jurassic park felt like a step back to Back to the future, I hope this game feels more like a game.

Unfortunately, we've heard nothing about The Walking Dead gameplay-wise, even though it's just a month or two away. (Telltale really needs to get better at revealing information.)

They have said the gameplay will be different from anything they've done before, though. This means it won't be like Jurassic Park (yay!). But it also won't be like Sam and Max (boo!).

I can't wait for it either! I am really looking forward on what made the difference when they said that its unlike your typical zombie games.

What is two or so months away? More information or the actual game? I haven't heard any information regarding an official release date. More so, no indication of the game being anywhere near complete.

Ja1862 · 01/03/2012, 12:08 am

They had said it would be out in the winter, so it's only a month or so away

~~No, there's no info on a release date. Absolutely NO info.~~ Please don't make anything up.

This from just two weeks ago:

I know it's possible it could get delayed again, so I wouldn't treat this as a guarantee it'll come out then, but there was an official confirmation.

*Vainamoinen* · 01/03/2012, 09:33 am

I didn't even get that bit. That explains the "two month" frame mentioned in here. Still, it doesn't seem to be set in stone... we'll see in February.

Johnxjericho · 01/03/2012, 11:24 am

I like the sound of that...It'd be nice to have a release in time with the 2nd half of the season....But keep up all the good and hard work fellers..

Bloody Eugene · 01/03/2012, 04:02 pm

Why do you need character control?
JP was better than the "make the puppet run against invisible walls" of BTTF.

Direct control sucks. Even on L.A.Noire.

Ja1862 · 01/04/2012, 09:42 am

Vain I suggest you do some research before rushing in here calling people liers....

Moving on

Heavy rain had character control, if it has something like that ot would be cool....

*Vainamoinen* · 01/04/2012, 11:11 am

Nobody was calling anybody "a liar". We'll see how far "your" info goes though. See you on the 3rd of February!

Moving on.

Ja1862 · 01/04/2012, 12:18 pm

Did younot say 'stop making things up'

People who make things up are liers....

Ja1862 · 01/04/2012, 12:21 pm

Yes because saying I've made something up is different then calling me a lier... really"

Sorry for the spelling mistakes using my mobile and I suck :s

Moving on now

Erm... I... uh... wait what?

Ja1862 · 01/05/2012, 10:03 am

You said 'please don't make anything up'

I'm not a liar why would I make anything up?

Well, guess I won't be buying this one. Telltale's "Heavy Rain style" gameplay completely misses the point of everything that made Heavy Rain good (i.e. the ability of the player to define their own story experience.)

It irks me to no end that they keep referring to this gameplay style as an "evolution," when it's basically the exact same QTE gameplay we've seen since the boss fight finishing moves in the God of War games, mixed with the non-interactive "clickable movie" elements of games like Dragon's Lair from the 80s. What an evolution!

here is another video that talks about gameplay choices and the different
outcomes you could get,sounds cool.

there is another video,can't find it now,talks about choices be final
and you won't be able to load a save and redo it, if it doesn't work out
way you thought it would.
