PushStartSelect: "The greatest show on television starts later tonight and I don’t know a single person not excited for it. The show is of course The Walking Dead, and for some fans we have not only been enjoying the exciting 100th issue of the comic book series, but a rather fascinating game series from TellTale. You have read our reviews stating how great each episode has been, and we obviously love the show if you read TheMoviePool, but lets go ahead and compare the show to the game. Both are great and have fascinating stories, but how do they stack up to each other? We are leaving the comics out of this because that is the source material of both versions and will obviously have some strengths, if not direct comparisons to the show."
This is the realist you’ll ever see us. Come hang out and talk Telltale with us. We wanna know your thoughts! Leave us comments!
Talking Telltale is a weekly Podcast/Videocast. Coming soon to iTunes!
Before the announcement that a heavily narrative focussed Walking Dead video game was announced in 2012, Telltale games was a development studio that not particularly well known. Despite putting out other similar properties with Back to the Future: The Game and Jurassic Park: The Game, the products were largely met with a very mixed and ultimately tepid response from the public. The rampant acclaim and runaway success reached with The Walking Dead launched the developer into one of the most anticipated and favourable studios out there with one revolutionary product.
I think the walking dead story telling is amazing. I really love the games and think that they bring the respect of gaming story telling up in the world of entertainment in general :)
A reflection on the business perspective of Telltale Games.
