On of the most fantastic experiences I had playing a video game
Few are the game that make me think about myself not as a player, but as a person. That makes me think about my decisions and whether they are right or wrong. Heck, I don't think there are more game like that than I have fingers on my hand (5, by the way). And The Walking Dead is one of them. When I first heard of this title, I honestly thought that it was Telltale's first stab at an action game. "An adventure game in a zombie world ?", I thought, "How the hell does that even work ? No way." Turns out, I was wrong. Boy was I wrong. Telltale made it work. They made it work so well. What's so good about The Walking Dead isn't the old Telltale engine showing it's age, neither the almost nonexistent puzzles, nor the sometimes silly action parts that more that anything else remind you why The Walking Dead isn't an action game. No, what's so good about The Walking Dead is the way it presents to you different characters, each with a different personality and how those characters interact with each other. How it makes you feel when everything goes to shit because you're in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, everything GOES to shit eventually. How it makes you care so much about a 3D model that looks like a little girl and doesn't even physically exists. The writing in The Walking Dead is its greatest strength and made me feel a lot of different emotions, made me think a lot of different things about myself. And if that is not a good recommendation, then I don't know what is.
