The mouse cursor isn't a mistake. This game is actually a postmodern treatise on player agency and identity within meta-ludo-narrative dissonances.

Why do the zombies have plastic hair?!

I will admit that it does look a little better than the last trailer that was released, but it still looks like ass.

How long before this is $20?

Oh my... oh my God. How do you release a trailer for your game with that kind of shit in it?

But I missed it the first time, so... I guess that's why. Still though, nice - and entirely depressing - find.

Hell I don't think this looks that bad. They didn't even show any gameplay, and Merle and Darryl are recognizable as Merle and Darryl. Maybe the gameplay is actually good?

we can always hope, it would suck if the walking dead video games would already be condemned :(

This explains their last trailer - They knew they needed to release a trailer after the fan-made fiasco, so they got these two guys in to record VO for this new one. Meanwhile, they shot that awful 20 second trailer of the two of them in sweatpants, because they probably weren't told they were going to be on camera.

Everyone's talking about how bad the game looks, but how bout that dialogue? "What the hell's it look like I'm doin, I'm savin the damn day." Who wrote this shit, a 13-year-old?

I wouldn't really expect Shakespeare from someone like Daryl. It's also par for the course if you watch the show. Vapid dialogue all around.

Blew the budget on the actors, it looks like. Give the QL to Ryan & Patrick. They'll have the best opinion on it. We all know Jeff already hates it just by its existence. lol

Activision do have Bungie, now. Maybe they borrowed their writers for this.

To be honest, this game looks like it was a safety net for the Telltale Walking Dead game. If that one didn't catch on with its paradigm shifts in design, this safe shooter would swoop in and grab the cash. At this point however, with mainstream attention on Telltale from Spike's GOTY award, I think the 'safe' notion is blowing up in this one's face.

I was referring to the voice actor not the actual character itself.

well it looks like a ps2 game, and why do people like daryl he's kinda terrible, I mean he's more likeable then most people on the show being that most people on the show are pretty bland. I liked Dale before they killed him, he had good taste in hats.

I'm starting to see Warren Spectre's point. Not all games need to be like Call of Duty. That's just dumb. Spectre should have just said that and not have spent 20 minutes spewing nonsense that just obscured that point.
