Default First review of Episode 5 - 9.5 "Phenomenal."

"Episode 5 is the emotional finale fans deserve."

‎I hope you’re ready to hear about The Walking Dead: The Game for a long, long time. In the next few weeks, the title from developer Telltale Games will likely win many Game of the Year awards. Moving into 2013, people will reference the series over and over as the benchmark for story-telling in games. And historically, it will stand as the game that reinvented or at least repopularized adventure games.

God. Can't wait to see how this all plays out for me. That's a really high score that Greg gave!

Usually i wouldn't trust IGN reviews anymore, but for the walking dead's case, it has to be good.
I already bought the whole game anyways so i'm already on it.

The greatest trailer ever made. Better than the Angry Video Game Nerd movie trailer.

Well, thanks to that "other thread's" title, we knew that... which kinda pisses me off.

Game isn't even out yet, and inconsiderate people are already ruining the fun for others.

Haven't been excited like this for a game in a long time. Since episode 4 to be exact. :P

EGM: 9/10

Right from the start, this episode cranks up the tension to 11. Unfortunately, this may also be why it burns itself out as the shortest episode of the series. However, it's also one of the most satisfying, as everything you've built up to finally comes to a head-and in the end, you'll do whatever you can to protect Clementine in this accomplishment in videogame storytelling.
