Just finished this up the other day and it was awesome. If you're a fan of the series or comic you should definitely give this a go. Can't wait until the next episode is released.

Got this on xbox this weekend. Really enjoyed it. Nice change for a zombie game

Hoping to grab this sometime this week. Debating whether or not to get the sub, the ep, or wait for a box release...

Just in case anybody was wondering, it looks like this will be taking a different release route than the other Telltale series on PSN. The first episode that I downloaded is labeled as just "The Walking Dead" and has menu options to start up the other episodes within that game, so it seems like the others will be DLC that adds to that initial file. This is just what I got with my season sub, so I don't know if the single episodes will be separate like the other Telltale series or not.

Also, it has a platinum that will be obtainable by the time you finish the last episode, which should be easy since the trophies only require you to beat each chapter and the episode.

well we have that model in BlueToad Mystery files

demo is kind of interesting. I migh tpick up the pass in a few weeks.

the way the trophies are laid out are exactly how it should be with this type of game. play the game how you want with whatever decisions you want and still be rewarded with the plat upon completion. i hated heavy rains trophy list because of that being the exact opposite.

when is Episode 2 coming out

they should of had it where if you bought the sub u get Episodes 1- 4 Now but if u only bought the Episode 1 u will have to wait to buy Episode 2 - 4

Later this month.

well it was my understanding that the major premise behind Episodic game development was that you actually develop the second game after the first... hence while it's likely plotted out. I have to expect that Episode 4 isn't actually completed yet.

The only series where they completed all of the episodes before releasing them was Jurassic Park.

They had to structure the game like this to get around MS "no episodic" psuedo-policy so the game could be sold on XBLA.

Just purchased the season pass. 5 episodes for $20? I'm down with that. I played about 30-45 minutes so far, really enjoying the art style. The QTEs are simple yet require you pay attention and do what is requested. I like it. It's very much in the vein of a guided pick-your-adventure book.

The Friday release is official and Telltale released a cool trailer that sums up the percentages on the major choices. Don't watch this video unless you've beaten the first episode:
