Lead Designers Sean Vanaman and Jake Rodkin sit down with AJ LoCascio in the first episode of Playing Dead – the topic of conversation is what exactly Telltale’s upcoming game based on the Robert Kirkman comic ‘Walking Dead‘ is.
The game is based on the comic rather than the AMC TV show. Taking place in the greater Atlanta area, the game focuses on a group new to the ‘Walking Dead’ universe. Episode One (yes, it would appear we’re going to see another episodic game from Telltale) is set at the start of the zombie outbreak, a point on the comic’s timeline that sees main character Rick comatose after having been shot. Expect to see some familiar faces in the game, serving as sort of a reverse character builder Telltale’s Walking Dead will explore what some of the folks from the comic books were doing in the early days of Armageddon.

[..YouTube..] @immortalslayer90 if u had read them, i bet u wouldn’t be saying “Best show on TV!” 😀 not saying the show is bad, but if they were more faithful to the comics , it would be amazing.
[..YouTube..] Caution on the “spoiler” warning: it applies to the TV show too, not just their game or the comics.
[..YouTube..] Gameplay or gfto
[..YouTube..] @thewierddood it looks like the comic
[..YouTube..] Super Mario Sunshine was freakin’ amazing. Robert Kirkman is seriously crazy.
[..YouTube..] Walking Dead is hardcore. They made Jonathan Brandis a zombie to come back and host the show. D:
[..YouTube..] @codeXnecro I’ve read a bit about the plot of the comics, just never the actual comics themselves. I don’t like some of the ideas in the comics, frankly. I don’t like the thought of Lori and even worse, her infant, being killed. I don’t like how quickly Shane gets killed off. I dont like that Dale is killed by cannibals. Daryl, who doesnt even appear in the comics, is my favorite character. I am quite happy with the show how it is. But hey, to each his own, it’s just my opinion.
[..YouTube..] I have read the comics so I know where your coming from but you shouldn’t post comments like this. alot of people only watch the show and this has major spoilers in it.
[..YouTube..] @immortalslayer90 You should read them their really good.
[..YouTube..] @DexterBrian37 I HIGHLY doubt they will follow the comics close enough that my comment will matter. Most of the deaths in the show have been different significantly enough.
[..YouTube..] iOS me gusta
[..YouTube..] Drake’s ring! like if you noticed
[..YouTube..] OMFG YES…
Please dont fuck this game up, PLEASE DONT FUCK THIS UP!
[..YouTube..] HI EVERYONE!!! DO YOU WANT TO EARN DOLLARS WHILE SURFING?OR WHILE LETTING YOUR COMPUTER TURN ON? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR REGISTER NOW.HERE IS THE LINK ——-> adf dot ly/5XCk8
[..YouTube..] It sounds like their hearts are in this, I just hope they can get the gameplay right.
[..YouTube..] @uknow764 another left 4 dead
the tv show is better than zombie game series
[..YouTube..] finally a good zombie game lol
[..YouTube..] Is this official canon with the comics?
[..YouTube..] i hope it doesen’t turn out like amy
[..YouTube..] Fans of the comic. Nice one 😀
[..YouTube..] @PedroPenyaranda but they did warn you about the spoilers. It’s your fault if you didn’t bother skipping them.
[..YouTube..] @Videogammer69 but jurassic park was only about 2 hours an episode.
[..YouTube..] @Cede181 Alright, thank you 🙂
And no, I had not watched the video, cause it was very long and I’m not really comfortable with oral english so it would have been really hard to understand everything and I just wanted to know if it was a P&C or not cause I nearly only play these games ^^
[..YouTube..] Sean buy buy yourself a white solid t shirt with the sells money.
[..YouTube..] This is just another piece of crap put out by Telltale games.
Seriously in today’s age I want to play a game that is nothing but an animated book that you chose which page your turning.
The Walking Dead should be just you trying to survive a Zombie Apocalypse and running missions. Dead Island was highly successful and I have no idea WHY Telltale games is still even in business. Who the hell buys these things.
Postal 3 and Duke Nukem were complete flops and they are modern compared to this crap
[..YouTube..] @kpreston69 Although it pains me to say it, I agree with you. Telltale games does have a reputation for royally screwing over games (eg Jurassic Park), It’s such a shame really. I have wanted a awesome open world Zombie Survival RPG for a while now. Dead island was a bit of a hit and miss, I was looking for more realism in that game although it was still pretty good.
TLDR Pray to fucking god that they don’t screw it up
[..YouTube..] @Crainey92
Don’t get your hopes up, Telltale games usually completely fuck up their games to the extent where I cry in the corner. I just hope to god that they get it right this time
[..YouTube..] Rockstar should have developed it imagine the graphics
[..YouTube..] Seriously? Downloading a minigame once per month, paying money every month to play portions of one game? Forget that. Watch in about a year the whole game will be out at Best Buy for $30.
[..YouTube..] @kpreston69 Dead Island was shit. I’m not saying this will be any better until I see some gameplay, but I don’t see any reason why Dead Island should get some sortive crown because it was crap.
[..YouTube..] Really looking forward to this game, think it’s going to be the best zombie game ever, because I personally dont like just to go and shoot every fuc*ing zombie you see, get’s boring in the length, it’s going to be awesome!

[..YouTube..] @f6subaccount I’d like to point out that Telltale said there are no QTE in this game and you can take direct control of Lee.
[..YouTube..] These guys seem to have a really great grasp of zombie’s, seems like this game is in good hands. I’ll look forward to the finished product.
[..YouTube..] The only good zombie movies are when the word “zombie” isnt used
[..YouTube..] Wanna burn belly fat? ==> on.fb.me / Ah5k5P (remove spaces and paste to browser)
[..YouTube..] You know, the great thing about adventure games, is that it lets you tell more subtle stories than games about shooting fucking zombies.
[..YouTube..] I have a feeling they are gonna fuck this up
[..YouTube..] clementine? “Little Sister” mode?
interesting…
[..YouTube..] I hope theres cheats
[..YouTube..] dead island type Engine would be awesome!
[..YouTube..] i liked super mario sunshine
[..YouTube..] Gonna suck ass. Its too bad the best zombie game has been Undead Nightmare.

[..YouTube..] Graphics look like Borderlands graphics :/
[..YouTube..] Minur.
[..YouTube..] Game grafcs suck
[..YouTube..] WTF SPOELERS DO NOT WACH
[..YouTube..] I am a big Walking Dead fan and i love zombie games but i am a bit sceptical about this.
[..YouTube..] @gamerZ0099 It’s an arcade game.
