LOL, I haven't even played any of the Walking Dead, but a few weeks ago I watched the video decisions breakdown for Episode 4, and read Patrick's article/interview on Episode 4.

And this is so hype!! xD Almost wish I got on the bandwagon sooner, definitely going to play through it once this term is over.

I think I might have set a record time for making a decision in the Walking Dead game when I chose to drop Ben.

That dude fucked up one too many times.

Finally I can get Kenny killed. Can't stand that dude.

The poor sod lost both his wife and son in less than two minutes! You cruel cold-hearted bastard!

Nah, I feel what he's saying. I helped Kenny through every single one of his family problems, but didn't side with him on like two things and he left me hanging last episode. So, no Kenny drama in the finale for me, it would seem... maybe?

Man, I disagreed with him on almost every point. I made it my goal to get him to hate me. And yet, at the end of 4, he decided to come with me because we were suddenly the best of friends. thefuck?

Also just finished it. God damn.

As a whole, I feel comfortable saying these games were the best story experience I've ever had with a game.

That's crazy. I don't get what they did with Kenny's scripting, but it sounds like he makes the most random choices. Guess he is supposed to do whatever the opposite of any sane person would do.

Hello.

I, too, have just finished it.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go find more Kleenex.

So it's $10 an episodes for 5 episodes? I guess now I can get the whole story without waiting for each episode.

This is probably my favourite story ever told in a game, and most certainly has my fav character (Clem, duh!)

It's actually $5 per episode, which is a pretty damn awesome pricepoint.

@dyong It's half off on Steam right now ($12.50), and on PSN there is a season pass option that gets you the game for $20. $25 anywhere else and a physical copy is coming out next month.

I dropped Ben too. I kept giving him chances and all that asshole did was lose Clem every cance he got. I didn't drop him to appease Kenny. I did it because I thought the guy was dead weight. I assumed it was the popular decision until I saw the end game stats. What an amazing game.

You have to have dropped Ben in ep 4 to get it. It's instead of the Kenny/Ben/Balcony thing.

Game was good, some things don't make sense to me but overall the game was good. I don't understand why they don't show Ben and Kenny dying graphically. It makes me think they are still alive... And that cliff hanger at the end isn't too cool.

And the people who say this isn't much of a game.... This is just as much of a game as Mass effect was. I'm glad it didn't have pointless shooting.

This game is my GOTY.

@SuperSambo: I think you may have misunderstood what they were talking about, that scene I think you're referring to is always with Clementine (...trying to avoid spoilers). The scene with Christa in the dark room is in the middle of the episode, and apparently only shows up if you dropped Ben in episode four.

Strange how they went from making detective stories involving an adorable dog and bunny, to a bloody tale about the distraught heart in man.

Wow, Ben looks a lot different than the last time I saw him.
