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..] It’s my farm.
[..YouTube..] It’s my farm.
[..YouTube..] well thank you that they did not base this on the TV series. I hope this isn’t as disappointing as Jurassic Park tho.
[..YouTube..] I hope not.. and I hope so.. it is limiting for him for the rest of the series.. but it’s a pretty climactic moment.
[..YouTube..] @ompmega, Yes, please, go by the show so we can play as characters sitting around on a farm and bickering at eachother.
[..YouTube..] I want to play this game!
[..YouTube..] to get walking dead comics for free go to my channel!!! LIKE TO SHARE THE LOVE!!! top comment!
[..YouTube..] I’m buyin the game day 1!
[..YouTube..] please dont make this like the jurrasic park game because that sucked
[..YouTube..] PLEASE BUDAH, JESUS, KRISHNA, AND ALL YOU OTHER GODS MAKE SURE THIS GAME DOESN’T RUIN THE WALKING DEAD’S REPUTATION!!!!
[..YouTube..] I’m not even really into the TV show, nor have I read the comics, but I’m interested in checking this game out
[..YouTube..] This game disapointed me it doesnt look right.
[..YouTube..] can u play it on the ps vita seenin as u can play it on sen
[..YouTube..] i hope if the game is good they put the two in the show or book
[..YouTube..] Lord why do people say that just because their are things different about it does not mean it’s bad!
[..YouTube..] I’m really not a big fan and I don’t see how most people are, I mean c’mom its 2012 not the 90’s. Give us the innovation and and amazing graphics that our PC’s and game systems can run and take time developing the games. Everything now is just chewed up and spit back out more glorified…seriously point and click? i remember point and click games when i was in elementary school now I’m way passed that but yet this game still has graphics from 10 years ago and a gaming format that’s more then 20
[..YouTube..] I don’t really care about the graphics, as long as the game does the comics justice, i’m happy.
[..YouTube..] a real gamer judges a game by gameplay not graphics
[..YouTube..] do you realize that all PC games are point and click? you use WASD to move, mouse to click. are you fucking retarded? no real way around it. 2nd, if its N64 graphics or better idc. id rather have good gameplay and story then a game thats HD and shitty experience that i dont wanna play. the graphics look a lot like XIII a Gamecube game. the gaming format hardly ever changes. the button format for games, all the same. all controllers have the same amount of buttons and button setup minus the Wii
[..YouTube..] this looks gross. please stop now before you ruin the show’s rep.
[..YouTube..] This is a game like heavy rain. You don’t aim the gun and shoot zombies, you have to push buttons that pop up on screen…BORING!
[..YouTube..] i hope itll be a physical game disc instead f them tryin to money whore us the fans for $20 dlc downloads O_O
[..YouTube..] thank you for bid ass the spoiler alert aha 🙂
[..YouTube..] too catoony
[..YouTube..] too catoony
[..YouTube..] It’s based off a comic…
[..YouTube..] what consoles??????
[..YouTube..] what consoles??????
[..YouTube..] Wow telltale games got the papers to make this game,well it is probably going to be crap then.
[..YouTube..] they should do a walking dead rpg in different parts of the US.
[..YouTube..] it’s Budda but yea!! I agree with ya 😀
[..YouTube..] DONT DEAD OPEN INSIDE
[..YouTube..] @dqixmzd i agree one of my top 10 ALSO! ive been playing this game all week its worth a look >> bit.ly/wucWGz?=xznve
[..YouTube..] Generally, the combined price of Telltale’s episodic games come in around $30 to $35. So don’t expect each episode to cost $20 individually.
[..YouTube..] Borderlands graphics+zombie game=epic zombie game
[..YouTube..] Hey dude.I think you forgot Muhammad. 🙂 That is why it.
[..YouTube..] that host guy was marty mcfly in bttf game
[..YouTube..] Hershel is not a meme!
htt p:// knowyourmeme . com /memes/hershels-infinite-ammo-cheat
[..YouTube..] It sucks that theyre making the graphics like that. That’s what ruins zombie games like L4D and Dead Island. Make the zombies look real and you’ll have a good start on a zombie game.
[..YouTube..] wow horrible graphix horrible game engine. if this game were to be like grand theft auto like rockstar made it it would be a winner this is a looser thank you tale tell games your ruined it next time let the big boys like rock star aactivision make it. god damn i got all excited about walking dead video game come to find out its shitty childs play graphx and made by fag ass tale tell games.
if ttg was any good why would they have made jurassic pack, or back to the future
[..YouTube..] They are going by the comic, not the show. If you read the comic, it is pretty different.
[..YouTube..] IS ALLTHIS JUST TO SAVE A GIRL JEEZ
[..YouTube..] No no no no no. This guy cannot just say The Walking Dead is the thing, no matter what, as long as it has “The Walking Dead” label on it. The characters and their development are what make this series so unique. They’re not typical zombie fodder in which we can identify who will live and who’ll die in 5 minutes. The writer of the comics once said that the title of the comics not only talks of the zombies but also serves as a double entendre for the survivors who lose hope and can’t go on.
[..YouTube..] i did read the comic, it’s still better than the show according to me 9understandable as comics don’t really have budgets lol) anyway, i don’t wanna play as a shitty cartoon character I want it to be realistic….
[..YouTube..] I want to build a new civilization, but i know being a renegade gets better results.
[..YouTube..] No one will pay monthly for this.
[..YouTube..] Sure Yam on enough less talk more game play gesh
[..YouTube..] Next channel looking for gameplay not talking for 10 minns
[..YouTube..] yay thanks for the spoiler… chopping off ricks hand… great… thanks… dick
[..YouTube..] no, you need to shut up, they gave you a warning and the time to skip to. it’s your own fault after that.
