Here's the First Trailer for That OTHER Walking Dead Game

Again, no gameplay, but it's something. I guess.

From Ghostbusters 2009 to Star Wars Kinect to this.
 
So I'm not expecting much.
 
In fact, first hearing the news, I came to expect a $20 downloadable title.

Still not sure why this game needs to exist and if there is a sizeable audience out there that is really excited for it, especially considering the characters and story it will feature. Also, this trailer certainly didn't make me any more excited.

agreed. Merl is a raging racist in the TV show isn't he? pretty much (if not completely) a white supremacist, right? why would anyone want to play as that character?

You don't play much Xbox online do you?

So when do I say the AMC part of the title? AMC The Walking Dead - The Game?

On another note, does Activision release any non-CoD games that actually look good? I can't think of the last one right now.

@Paul_Is_Drunk: I believe you say "Robert Kirkmans The Walking Dead Comic AMCs The Walking Dead TV Show Activisions The Walking Dead Video Game", I think thats the official title. This game is dumb for so many reasons.

A Daryl and Merl simulator huh. I guess that could be interesting taking a bunch of drugs and killing zombies. Well probably not.

All right a live-action FMV Walking Dead game in the style of Mad Dog McCree, this is going to be great!

What do you mean its a first person shooter? Well I'm sure this will showcase the human dramatic element of the show in the most minimal way possible.

If this game is just FMV cutscene's of Michael Rooker yelling at me, then I'm all in.

You-you know, I would actually buy it, if that was the case.

This would be kind of interesting if it explored Daryl's origin, but it's probably just going to be a shoot a lot of zombies in the face game.

Hrhmgmrhmrhm. Telltale's game is much better because, well, it's not a first-person shooter, for one thing.

Telling their backstory seems like an interesting premise but damn, that was a poorly cut trailer.

hmmm Activision must see something in say a popular mod called DayZ and a popular show called Walking Dead. Doubt this will be better than either though.

Cool! (Sarcasm). I always wanted to play a game as a Neo Nazi and his Brother. (Also Said Sarcastically). I like to play games where I feel some kind of Sympathy towards the person I control, when it comes to survival. Just because we like the younger brother now... why do we want to play these NUT jobs before the Hand indecent?

Well. Norman Reedus is easily the best thing about The Walking Dead, so that's something.

I like the Telltale game but I will wait and see what this game actually looks like before just blindly shitting on it, that would make me the minority on here it seems.

To be fair, I don't think this cable network-branded zombie shooter is targeted at the sort of person who reads press releases for video games.

No gameplay, as expected, but it gives us a nice mood already. Hopefully it will be fun enough, though I'm not expecting much depth in this...

Huh...a first person shooter set in a universe where gun combat is heavily discouraged, starring the series' two most unsavory and downright racist characters, developed by the makers of such games as BloodRayne and Spyhunter: Nowhere to Run, published by a company known for farming out franchises into shoddy low-budget tie-in games...where do I sign up?
