No Walking Dead ? :O You disappoint me.

Three reasons:
- TWD might be praised by adventure fans and even more by reviewers/gamers who normally wouldn't touch an adventure game with a ten foot pole (reminds me of Heavy Rain in that regard). Doesn't change the fact that I don't like horror movies or games. I didn't like the TWD TV show, watched half a season, bored me to death like all other movies/TV shows with zombies I ever saw. Actually I'm probably one of the few males on this planet who dislikes anything with zombies - unless they fight plants or are pirates with an aversion to grog.
- I cant stand Telltale's 3D engine and the uninspired art style of their games. Telltale makes the ugliest p&c adventure games imo, all the games I listed look better to me than TWD, even Resonance with its outdated 2D graphics. (Yet I still bought Telltale's ugly Tales of Monkey Island, Sam & Max and Back to the Future games, but that's because I like the franchises. I really hope Telltale will at least make their upcoming King's Quest game in 2D).
- TWD seems to belong to the adventure subgenre of interactive movies. If I play another game from this genre it will be Beyond: Two Souls (Heavy Rain was overrated by critics imo, but it was quite entertaining and showed how stunning 3D graphics can look in an interactive movie these days).
