After really enjoying TWD I will be picking this up at some point for sure.

Sioen · (10-10-2013, 11:39 PM)

Can't wait, walking dead was awesome!

The Tofunator · (10-10-2013, 11:44 PM)

Reviews are looking pretty good. Nice to see that Telltale is maintaining quality.

Chiaroscuro · (10-10-2013, 11:48 PM)

I like legends and lore. I like Vertigo Fables. So it seems that I really like to play this game this week instead of waiting for the whole season, but...

My main TV broke this week, I still need to call maintance. I do not feel like moving the 360 to bedroon, thats my wife territory.

Why it is not coming to Vita at the same time as other plataforms?

With you there. Reviews don't mention bugs and what-not, but I don't believe they did with TWD either. I'll wait for the general publics consensus this time around before I dive in.

I swear, TellTale are the must frustrating developer in this regard. Great concepts & execution, let down by technical implementation and customer service.

ilnadmy · (10-10-2013, 11:57 PM)

Reviews look good, very much looking forward to this. Will most likely wait for a sale before picking it up though, considering the enormity of my backlog.

Very glad I pre-ordered this now. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Pollux · (10-11-2013, 03:17 AM)

When is this going up on Xbox Live?

The Live marketplace usually updates after 5am EST. So the first episode should be up to buy sometime between 5am and 7am.

Lingitiz · (10-11-2013, 03:42 AM)

Nice reviews! Definitely on board with another game in this style.

Milennia · (10-11-2013, 03:42 AM)

Seems like telltale has another critically acclaimed hit on their hands, very nice.

Echoenigma · (10-11-2013, 03:44 AM)

Cant really trust gaming press when it comes to knowing good writing; will have to wait for more impressions. Good to see it succeeds in other areas, though.

Probably going to have to wait for the RPS review for that.

Yeah this bodes well for me indeed.

jediyoshi · (10-11-2013, 03:54 AM)

Unlock timer popped up on the Steam page
http://store.steampowered.com/app/250320/

Looks like 11am pst tomorrow

Inferno313 · (10-11-2013, 03:57 AM)

I loved Walking Dead and I really want this, but I don't wanna buy it on a current-gen console when I'll be getting a PS4 next month, and knowing Telltale's strategy of releasing their games on as many platforms as they can, I can't help but expect it'll show up on PS4 sooner than later. So alas, I cannot join you all in the excitement tomorrow.

ALSO POKEMON BITCHES

petethepanda · (10-11-2013, 04:58 AM)

If I go and read volume 1 of the comics, is that likely going to "ruin" the first few episodes of the game series? Or is it probably going to be doing a lot of its own stuff like TWD?

aeolustl · (10-11-2013, 05:11 AM)

I quite like Heavy Rain and games are story-driven.
Will I enjoy it?

Giggzy · (10-11-2013, 05:14 AM)

Any word of this series going to the ps4? I'm on a hiatus from purchasing anything until next gen, but I'll make an exception for this if it's not.

I don't think anything's been announced, but I mean... This is Telltale we're talking about. They'll port their game to a toaster, if it could run it.

It's a prequel so all the events that take place within the game take place before the first issue of the comic.

Welp! In that case I'll wait for PS4 disc version then. Especially since I'm not too fond of digital download games.

Riposte · (10-11-2013, 05:21 AM)

Haha, I don't think I've ever seen someone definitively call something THE "GotY" in an OT, even if you are talking about a previous game. Uh, okay.

Seconded. Wont buy this unless I can transfer/finish my season pass from the PS3 to the PS4. $30 is alot to ask right now.

Megatron · (10-11-2013, 05:52 AM)

I might wait if we knew for sure when the Vita/PS3 version were coming. Since I don't, in for the 360 version.

Shuggah_Daddy · (10-11-2013, 05:54 AM)

Hyped as fuck! Stoked there is a PC version too!

Amir0x · (10-11-2013, 05:56 AM)

Man pretty hyped for this. I'm into Fables (at least the early trades), so they got a spectacular visual direction, a comic I enjoyed at some point, and it seems your choices matter a lot more in this game than Walking Dead.

If that's true, I think this might be the one that for me puts Telltale on a different level.

eshwaaz · (10-11-2013, 06:01 AM)

So the 360 version has framerate and performance issues, just like The Walking Dead. Come on, Telltale. Your games are not technically impressive enough for this.

ricochetguro · (10-11-2013, 06:02 AM)

Just bought this, woot. Is it canon(well, one version of at least)?

Reluctant-Hero · (10-11-2013, 06:08 AM)

Any word if PSN will offer the entire season for $19.99 up front? They did the same with TWD.

TerryLee81 · (10-11-2013, 08:41 AM)

Good reviews. I want this on my Vita. Guess it's just a matter of time...

madmackem · (10-11-2013, 08:48 AM)

Can you still use ms point cards to add to your wallet on xbox, there isnt a cat in hells chance of me using my card.

element · (10-11-2013, 08:54 AM)

no steam pre-load? fail!!

Stimpack · (10-11-2013, 08:54 AM)

Wow, good on them for their consistency, if the reviews are to be believed. I'll be interested in hearing more about this.

Sweet, will get one online now. Cant wait for this, this world is totally new to me as was walking dead, its great we have games like this that bring these worlds to a wider audience.

Ooh, really? So I can buy a 1600 points code from Amazon and it'll put $20 on my Live account?

Inorigo · (10-11-2013, 09:51 AM)

So, when you're making choices in dialogue is it timed like in TWD?

IdreamofHIME · (10-11-2013, 10:03 AM)

You can only buy the season? You can't buy the episodes individually?

Oh thank god. This was so annoying in TWD.

Yeah, no amount of positive reviews will sway me. I'll wait for people to play around with it for a while.

JordoftheDead · (10-11-2013, 11:18 AM)

Can't wait for this. Looks really good.

Is it up on XBLA soon?

HooYaH · (10-11-2013, 11:36 AM)

Any places selling it for cheap other than Steam store?

Fjordson · (10-11-2013, 12:49 PM)

Wow, $15 for the season pass ain't bad. There's five episodes in total, right?

Sioen · (10-11-2013, 01:02 PM)

Just bought it on xbla. The music is incredible and i like the fighting scenes. It doesn't dissapoint.
