I saw an ad for an Activision game for TWD coming out later so  
does this mean that this passive type of game is gone for good? 
I actually thought it was a pretty interesting yarn & was hoping 
it would continue on, but it looks like it's finished.

Nope, Telltale has said there will be a season 2. Activision's game is a shooter based on the TV show.

Yep. Season 2 I imagine will come in another year or so. I don't have high hopes for the Activision game.

I think Tell Tale stated that there would be a season 2 but Activision's game is a shooter based on the show with no real connection to what Tell Tale is doing.

@Lind_L_Taylor: Nope. Season 2 will come out next year or so. Activisions game is going to be about Deryl and Merle before they met up with the rest of the people in season 1. It's also going to be an FPS developed by Terminal Reality.

20 bucks says it turns out atrocious.

@JasonR86: I try to keep an open mind about games, even those from Activision and EA but, it's hard to imagine that game being anything other than another CoD engine game with a zonmbie skin over it.

Telltale has been making these kinds of games for years, so even if there wasn't going to be a season 2 "this type of game" isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

yeah, i'll try to keep an open mind on the shooter, but i wouldn't bet on that horse.

@Lind_L_Taylor: A game about Merle & Deryl. Yes, that sounds great. But published by Activision and developed by Terminal Reality. Sounds like excrement.

The game has been hugely successful for them. So successful that they had to move into a bigger studio to accommodate their rapid hiring process. Looks like they're amping things up for Season 2.

@Lind_L_Taylor: You said "passive type games", so I thought you meant story focused adventure games, which is Telltale's bread and butter.

The only similarities between Mass Effect and The Walking Dead is the focus on choices that carry between episodes. If that's what you meant I don't see that necessarily going away either, although not many developers are willing to do multi-episode games.

Would be cool if Clementine had a cameo in The Walking Dead TV show as Andy would know her.

Andy? Also, game takes place in comic universe, not the television show.

Oops I mean Glenn, Have no Idea where Andy came from, he was in Episode 1 and is a main character in the show.

Loved all of the characters in the first season, but I hope they go an entirely different route when it comes to season 2. 
 

It wouldn't be season 2 if there was no connection to season 1. Also the post credit scene makes it obvious the she will be in season 2.
