I haven't read the comics (keep meaning to) so I have no idea if they've already been brought back, or maybe even killed, in the comics. Between them and Daryl's brother (the inbred white trash who cut off his hand), they keep giving more people for me to wonder about!. Can't wait to see this game on release, definitely a day one buy for me.

Lennie James! Great actor and a great fucking role in the first episode of season 1. Then they forgot him and the series went poop! Now if they game is about his character i am now interested in it. Damn that was a great episode and hopefully this game will expand on that.

I really like the art style of this game, If the gameplay keeps up with the art then this might be a great game.
If at first you don't succeed; Call it version 1.0

I can imagine though that keeping short hair wouldn't be a priority, although going through trees and forests would be fairly difficult. Could you imagine getting caught by a walker because you weren't paying attention and a branch caught your afro?

Is the game going have that animated overtone? 'Cause that'd be sick. I didn't notice it on the last screens. (Can't see the vid either - work. pfft)

I could see a potential retail release after all the episodes are released. Either way Ill be getting all the arcade episodes and then if retail does happen to show its beautiful face ill replay the hell out of it some more.

If you played jurassic park you will understand why I'm saying the following......

I have very low expectations for this game.

I can almost say for certain it will be a press a mash b game.

And that will suck.

Although I do understand that the mediocre television watcher isn't ready for such a gruesome story. And I am not talking about the zombie fact, but rather how people react in the situation. I've been utterly shocked multiple times when reading the comics.

How was it ruined? Because it didn't follow the comics? The guy who writes the comics specifically said he doesn't want the show to follow it. He doesn't want comic readers to already know everything that's happened.

Which is a much better approach, in my opinion. They've done things in the GN's that haven't happened in the show and vice versa

SPOILERS

For example, they just killed off Dale and they haven't even left Hershel's farm. In the GN's Dale was a tough fucker! He had one of his legs cut off to save him from a zombie bite, and he still kept going for a good while. About a year or two, I think. He also went out with a bang. He was captured by cannibals and they'd eaten some of him while he was unconscious. Then he revealed he was infected. THAT is how you go out in style.

Love this show. Cannot wait for the game. I also wonder what has happened to some of the characters that have vanished.
