Default Steam Walking Dead Out, TELLTALE version OUT NOW!

As soon as it comes out for Telltale's site, we'll let you know. It's out on Steam if you ordered it there.

Thank you.

EDIT: Telltale had a last minute internal server issue.

For those of you who can't wait to play TWD now, check your email. They have sent a STEAM key and you can download it from steam if you purchased it through Telltale's site. They should fix the server issue soon. If you still don't have your key, click here for instructions.

REMEMBER: I am a forum moderator, not staff. My job is to stop fights and get rid of spambots. I know just as much about the ETA on this as you; please don't email me about customer service issues. Thanks.

Personally, I would've thought that on TellTales own site they would have it up before others. Either way, I will be playing it today, just would've thought they gave people who ordered it through their site an advantage over Steam

Actually it's the company that skims 30% off the top serving people. Gotta have some way of dissuading people from buy directly from the developer after all, right?

I hate to say it, but I don't think I'll be ordering through TT anymore. At the very least I would appreciate a time-frame or a countdown timer like Steam does. What's the point of pre-ordering when it's already 1:20pm where I'm at and I still can't access the game?

I second this. If I had known we'd be waiting now I would never have ordered direct.

What positive benefit could this of possibly had for TT?

Steam releasing first is a very rare thing in Telltale's game history (in fact this could be the first time it's happened, but not 100% sure).

agreed... this was my first direct order.. and most likely my last from this developer. i could have waited to use my money on my xbox or ps3 at least. this is a major ball drop here

I think if you get people hyped up every minute is of interest.

No, probably not the first time. But I think it's more frequent that TTG releases first. The present situation seems a bit unknown to me, while I've witnessed far more release days when people from the Steam forums suddenly popped in here and started crying.

But what the heck, it's an episodic series. It's 1 : 0 for Steam vs. Telltale, but it's best of five.

Yeah, I know, we haven't been waiting hours, but the time isn't the point. 1 minute or 3 days, TT's own game should release way earlier than anywhere else. It's weird to me that TT's games are never available at midnight either, but that's another discussion.

Plus, just cause it's only been a short amount of time now, who knows how long it'll take. They don't even give us a time-frame or anything. For those of us that pre-ordered it pretty early, it sucks just to have no communication on the matter at all.

Especially considering the Steam version has achievements as well.... Doesn't look like TTG preorderers get anything special this go round
