Telltale Games developing 'Walking Dead' video game




It's a busy time for Telltale Games. With the unveiling of the first trailer for Jurassic Park, and the launch of the second episode of the Back to the Future series, the studio has confirmed it is creating a video game based on the comic book series The Walking Dead.

According to an IGN report, the partnership with Telltale and Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman will span over several years and feature multiple titles on multiple platforms.

Kirkman offered few details on what players can expect from The Walking Dead game, slated to launch during the fourth quarter 2011 window.

Kirkman says the game will be episodic and based on events within the comic book universe (there's also a TV show on AMC). It's not clear whether this title will be an adventure game -- similar to Telltale's previous work -- or a more action-oriented game.

The Eisner award-winning series features a group of people trying to survive during a zombie apocalypse.

I'd buy a video game console just for this, tbh.

It's Telltale, they usually release their games on PC, Mac and iPad as well as consoles ;)

Oh. Well, that's even better.

I'd want a Zombieland game first.

However, I'm still waiting for an Inglorious Basterds, Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan game. And don't tell me there's COD.

Hahaha same. Though, I just learned that Jurassic Park video game will be available sometime this year! Super excited.
[info]heulog 21st-Feb-2011 05:08 am (UTC)
Meh. Their Back to the Future games stink.

I love the Walking Dead a lot, but why do we need comics, books, the tv series AND a video game?
[info]rhysxxzxczx 21st-Feb-2011 05:10 am (UTC)
Because you can never have too much of it?
[info]lely91 21st-Feb-2011 05:15 am (UTC)
I just don't want zombies to be the new vampires :(
[info]brownxeyedxdork 21st-Feb-2011 05:12 am (UTC)
Telltale Games?
Oh.
[info]vafaill 21st-Feb-2011 05:26 am (UTC)
You don't like Telltale?
[info]miakun 21st-Feb-2011 05:13 am (UTC)
But the comic series is about human character development. The zombies are kind of lame when you think of it gameplay wise.

This show needs to come back right now, and the new season needs to start with Lori's death (don't even bother explaining how she dies--it's only important that she does) and Andrea needs to start kicking ass already and Rick needs to get over his slut wife and realize how awesome Andrea is and we get to see Rick and Andrea going at it like wild rabbits while being awesome with guns and saving the world because they're both so awesome and sexy.

That, and zombies.
[info]rhysxxzxczx 21st-Feb-2011 05:16 am (UTC)
Ikr I'm dying without this show in my life.
[info]lely91 21st-Feb-2011 05:16 am (UTC)

Now that I've actually watched it, this zombie just kind of makes me sad.
[info]yummyhead2toe 21st-Feb-2011 05:22 am (UTC)
I've never seen it. What about her makes you sad? Do they show her backstory pre-zombie? :o

Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick is the only zombie-related video game I'll ever need.

This reminds me I haven't played Left4Dead 2 in awhile.
[info]rhysxxzxczx 21st-Feb-2011 05:21 am (UTC)

[info]scottfreein4_d 21st-Feb-2011 05:21 am (UTC)
I'm not hopeful, tbh.
BY THE WAY, I WANT MY SECOND SEASON!

[info]rhysxxzxczx 21st-Feb-2011 05:23 am (UTC)
I can't wait! A nice 13 episode season too, which will be amazing.
[info]scottfreein4_d 21st-Feb-2011 05:38 am (UTC)
So much better than the paltry six episodes that we got.
[info]veronicarg 21st-Feb-2011 11:09 am (UTC)
