Game » consists of 31 releases. First released on Apr 24, 2012

Presenting an original story set in the same universe as the comic book series of the same name, The Walking Dead is a five-part adventure game from Telltale that follows the story of a convicted murderer, his guardianship over a young girl, and his co-operation with a roaming group of survivors in a zombie apocalypse.

Has playing TWD made you feel more decisive in real life?

Haha. Not really. This isn't the zombie apocalypse and most decisions aren't made on a visible timer.

Sounds lame, but I think games in general have helped me be more decisive in real life. Can't pause life to go over every possible outcome, though I wish in certain situations a [...] option was available to me.

Not in the least.

It's a powerful ending but I don't think a video game has ever influenced my real life in any significant way.

I was always a decisive person so decisive Ill decide for you.

If I ask you a question such as "Want to go out on Friday?" and you ummmm and ahhh for just long enough, I will saying "You didn't answer me straight away and you still haven't decided, that's a no then." and if they argue with like "Hey I never actually said." I can easily say "So your saying yes." and they always reply "well no." with me going "See I told you, you answered me by not answering. Its a no."

Mass Effect is the only game to truly have that affect on me.

I should go.

I wouldn't go as far as to say the game changed my decision making after I was done with it. But I will say while making decisions I realized what kind of person I was when it came down to those virtual situations.

Nah, but I do think about climbing shit, driving like mad or shooting some shit up sometimes. Good thing I quickly decide not to do that.

@Claude: You gotta love that urge to just climb something though.

I never thought about it until now. Maybe it will. I'll check in about a week
