Do you think Telltale has redeemed itself after Jurassic Park with The Walking Dead?

[ryannumber1gamer]

I think they have. I got The Walking Dead episodes 1 & 2 on The Playstation Store and i love them. Telltale has finally got the right mix of QTE's,Adventure, A story that changes and puzzles. Now please keep Episode 3 spoilers out of here because Episode 3 has not come out on the UK Playstation Store yet and i really don't want Episode 3 spoiled for me.

I've not played anything off TTG since Sam and Max The Devils playhouse. So there still good in my book.

[ryannumber1gamer]

You should try Walking Dead Coolsome. BTTF may only be an okay game and JP May be a movie instead of a game but Walking Dead is great.

[Ribs]

This is implying that Jurassic Park was some sort of failure.

Also, Walker Dead takes off his helmet and dies at the end of Episode 3

[Darth Marsden]

NOT COOL, RIBS. I don't care if you're joking or not, you don't say stuff like that.

I haven't played The Walking Dead (mostly due to lack of interest), but pretty much anything Telltale does would be a step up from Jurassic Fart, so I'm going to go with 'yes' based on the fact Yahtzee doesn't hate it.

This belongs on the back of the box of any game Yahtzee doesn't destroy.

Also, I *hate* horror games but love TWD. Go fig.

I haven't actually played any Telltale game past BttF. Because I'm broke.

i dont give a damn what you crazies say i enjoyed jurassic park mainly because its game style was more about qte's. walking dead is a wonderfully well done game though but its mainly about choices just diffrent style is all yeah twd has some qte's in it but nothin to crazy.

ohhh. So that's who they asked.

[RingmasterJ5]

I selected "No" because personally, while TWD has a great story, in no way is it a point-n'-click adventure game.

Telltale has been on sort of a decline recently. I don't know if it's just me, but I even felt that something was a bit...off about TDP. Then BTTF, JP, and TWD happened(not saying anything about L&O as I haven't played it, but there's probably not much difference there), and none of them were actual adventure games.

At least, if they get King's Quest done right, they can... Hey, wait a second, wasn't there supposed to be another TTG game released around this time? Fables, was it? There's literally only a month left until that misses its "Q3 2012" release date, and then we were supposed to get KQ in Q4.

Also, this:

Replace that with Jurassic Park, and I'm in the same boat. I've been watching a playthrough of The Walking Dead, and it looks pretty good.

[der_ketzer]

I voted No. I really love the story of TWD but they slowly stopped making games after Strong Bad. They are making choose your own adventure movies now. TWD is a huge step in the right direction but only because JP was as far from the right direction as it can get.

Now let's get the puzzles back in. Please!

[LuigiHann]

I haven't played it yet but it does seem like they found a much better balance

[corruptbiggins]

I didn't think they needed any redemption in my eyes.

Then you are part of the problem.

Why? Because I can like a game other people don't? I've not had a bad experience with any of their games that I've played (I've only not played Texas Hold'em, Hector episode 2 & 3 and Law & Order: Legacies). I've enjoyed some more than others but at the end of the day I enjoyed them all.

[ryannumber1gamer]

I didn't hate Jurassic Park but i hated it as a Telltale game. We all know they can make great games and instead we got a QTE game with a tiny bit of exploring in each episode.

I see what you did there

[JordyLicht]

I didn't dislike Jurassic Park at all, but I definitely think Walking Dead is a huge improvement on that one.

[Jennifer]

I've liked all of Telltale's games so far (even Jurassic Park, in which I think the big problem there was incorrect labeling of genre in their marketing more than anything). The biggest problem I had with Telltale's recent games were the bugs (with Back to the Future: The Game being the worst of the lot).

It's impossible for any company to get rid of all of the bugs on computer operating systems due to so many different set-ups, but they've seem to be spending more time for bug fixing to get rid of most of them for The Walking Dead (and they've patched the big problems they've had this time around too, like the save problems on PSN).

So, since Telltale is taking the time to make a more stable gaming experience, they've definitely improved in my book.
