The bad news... the game's publisher is Activision.

Anyway, you play as Daryl and i guess we'll probably headshot a shitload of zombies with his crossbow :toast

I've been playing the telltale episodic, and it's really well done.

^I'm a fan of the show, so i decided to give that game a try but that point and click shit is just so boring imo.
I couldn't play more than 10 minutes but an FPS is definitely my thing.

Could be promising...hope it's more free world open ended that pure scripted like a max Payne for example

Well, for your standard point & click, the graphics are really a step up.
Game does start a bit slow for my liking, but IMO, once you get to Macon it picks up...

If you don't like the genre though, it probably won't work for you.

^^^yeah... I was kinda disappointed about how the game was point/click = you choose the outcome of the game type of thing.

Graphics weren't bad, but other than that, a video game having to do with zombies must at least resemble a cross between Left for Dead (all out melee with weapons-light on the storyline) and Dead Island (little use of weapons-heavy on the storyline).

As much as i like the source material, i will keep my expectations low, mainly because of Activision and their tendency to release mediocre licensed games.

Tbh, i would be fine with a Left 4 Dead clone but with some stealth sequences and resource management that goes beyond ammo.

I thought both of those kinda sucked, tbh... I don't really play MP, so Left for Dead was kinda lame... Dead Island ended up being really repetitive at some point, plus I hit that stupid bug they had on 1.0 where you would get killed on that village and your weapons would be destroyed. I had to wait for the update, then finished it, but it was kinda disappointing...

They'll probably fuck this game up.... Absolutely love the show and the comic book series though
