Forums - Gaming - The Walking Dead: The game - Episode 1 review (IGN)

 

CLOSING COMMENTS
The Walking Dead: The Game is off to a great start with A New Day. It has a believable cast of characters and a great look. Sure, the puzzles some adventure gamers love are missing and there will be an audio hiccup here and there, but as an introductory hook to the five-episode series, The Walking Dead Episode 1 has just about everything fans could want.
IGN RATINGS FOR THE WALKING DEAD: THE GAME (PS3)

 

RatingDescription
out of 10 Click here for ratings guide
9.0 Presentation
A New Day is a great story filled with cool moments and fleshed-out characters.
8.5 Graphics
Some of the art has sharp edges and tiny details look blurred, but overall, the comic book style is colorful and inviting. It's a pretty game.
8.5 Sound
Great voice acting brings the characters to life. Still an audio issue -- a character suddenly becomes softer -- here and there.
8.5 Gameplay
The new control scheme is easy to get the hang of and fun to use. Not many puzzles. Kind of an interactive graphic novel, which I dig.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
I played it twice to see the other side. Real value will come as you play other episodes and see if your choices truly change the outcomes.
8.5
OVERALL
Great

I love that show, but the game doesn´t actually look that interesting



Your link just sent me to a pic. Will probably give this a go on PC.

This looks pretty good. Might play it down the line. It doesn't have the characters from the show though?

I think it has some, Glenn is in it I think, but the main characters are new for the most part.

Maybe they´ll be in one of the other episodes. It would be cool to see Shane or Derryl
