Man, am I the only one here who likes Carth? But that's not the point. Fuck Alistair from DA:O. I hate everything about him, from his skills to his constant whine. Never has any good input, just a bitch or a moan.

God damn Dave. Sad to see you go sir. Thank you for the years of great website management and content. GB has gained a great asset, but lost one as while. Best of luck.

To The Moon when you find out the origins of the Platypus and everything starts to come together.

Just..all of this game. From the music, the story, the honest drama. I broke down.

@thdemn: Does that work in the comics? Chopping off the bitten limb?

Can't put a name to it, but someone does survive a bite in the comics after having the limb removed instantly. Also, Dale (who dies totally differently in the TV series) loses one leg, gets bitten and then cannibals eat his other leg (without knowing, they find out when he bursts out laughing after waking up to find his leg missing and over a campfire...seriously the comics are awesome), with the suggestion that eating bite carrier meat will transfer the infection as well.

I also recall one person in the comics losing a limb after being bitten but dying of blood loss, it seemed at the time like they caught it fast enough to stop infection.

The main character, Rick Grimes

Ricks hand was never bitten to my memory. He smashed it up by beating someone to a pulp and it didn't heal correctly, then the Governor cut it off purely to make his point, right? Infact I think Dale was bitten twice, once on the leg he had amputated then again before the cannibals incident. Its been a while since I went through the comics however, my memory might be a little hazy.

Yeah, Rick has never been bit. Dale survived his first bite by containing the infection in the severed limb, and sealing the infection point by cauterizing the stump. Rick lost a hand to the Governor as he went to argue against him. Its assumed that, provided the infection is contained quick enough, removing the infected limb will get rid of the problem with proper treatment. Remember, this is bacteria we are dealing with. Shit moves slower than viruses, but there is still a short window.

According to the TV series, some people are immune. Just saying.

Based on the comics not the TV show. In the comics, you infection will get you it has nothing to do with the virus itself. Everyone has been infected, bitten or not. And no one can be "immune" to a bacterial infection introduced directly to the bloodstream, Lee is fucked.

On a side note, it would have been excellent to see Lee try and take off his arm, but he really wouldn't have a reason to. These guys are much less informed about the plague as Rick and co. were when they started hacking off limbs.

I'm saying midnight EST. I will place my soul and sanity on that fact.

I really hope this is the game where Desmond takes the forefront. Its time.
