Seeing as its unclear as to when Sony updates the PS store on Fridays, I just want to let everyone know that the second episode to The Walking Dead is up on the store ready to accept your money.

So go and get it.

Edit: Well, seems as if nobody can play this right now.

Edit 2: I also don't recommend reading the posts of that thread. Its just filled with the worst people yelling at TT.

Edit 3: IT HAS BEEN PATCHED! Thanks to TellTale for pushing out a patch so quickly!

too bad it doesn't work and when you try to load it, it boots you back to the xmb

Anyone else having issues with the game? Everytime I try to play it, it kicks me back to the PS Menu. Anyone else experiencing it?

Glad to hear I'm not alone on this one at least

Crashing to the XMB for me when I select my save data as well. Let's hope they can fix this by the end of the day. If not, well, fuck.

I imagine this'll probably take another day or so for it to be patched or something. 
 
Deleting and re-dowloading the content does nothing either

@hbkdx12: Was thinking of doing that, guess not, should we contact them and tell them that it is wrong?

Looks like they rushed this out too quick

Well, maybe it's ok then that they won't give it to me as a lowly EU peon.

The boards on the official site are already getting mutilated by whiny people complaining about it not working. Telltale has said that they are contacting Sony to find out what exactly is wrong. They also said that the problem only happened once they released it. All we can do now is wait.

@Redbullet685: Good, I won't tweet them then. Hope it is fixed soon. Want to beat it before spoilers on the bombcast happen

telltale seems to be aware of the problem  


 Thanks everyone for letting us know about the issue. As soon as Episode 2 went live we also noticed this occurance and are currently working very quickly with our partners at Sony to resolve any problems. We'll keep you up to date as we hear back from them on when a solution may be coming. Stay tuned to our forums, we're right there with you, and we can't wait for you to play! Thank you again for your patience.


 Just played a few minutes of episode 1 again, wish they'd patch in an inverted option

it's great! its super long with a lot of loot and somewhat tedious questing - which i'm usually not into at all - but it just does everything so right. combat is satisfying and each area is really cool to discover and explore. also the amazing soundtrack really makes the lesser interesting parts a lot better. you can spend a couple hours just running around a beautiful forest, listening to great tunes, fighting dudes and collecting items, and have a great time doing it.

They patched it, It works duders
 

Sony just pushed an update and I just confirmed that Episode 2 is launching just fine now. You'll need to restart the game, but it will prompt you to download version 1.01 automatically. Please let us know if you're still having any issue with it.

Thank you so much for your patience with this!
