Telltale Games and their games Walking Dead, Wolf Among Us, Game of Thrones, Tales from the Borderlands and more

I didn't know they were doing Minecraft... jesus, that's a lot of work Telltale.

I was thinking of Game of Thrones, Tales of the Borderlands, Minecraft: Story mode and Mysterious new IP

As I doubt Season 2 of The Wolf Among Us is being worked on and not sure if we will see TWD Season 3 so soon

Haven't seen any rumbling about S2 of Wolf yet, but pretty sure they confirmed TWD so sure they're working on it at least to some degree.

Some news on the New IP

Just finished the first episode of Game of Thrones & absolutely loved it! The politics of the world just fits perfectly with TellTale's adventure games & I feel I have to be super careful with everything I say whereas in TWD I just reacted most of the time.

Yeah the amount of thinking you need for a decision in that game is insane. Top notch.

You've guys have reminded me I need to get on to GoT at some point.

2017 Marvel game from Telltale

Yeah, I'm up for that. Marvel and Telltale seems like a great fit.

Did any of you see the trailer of Minecraft: Story Mode, it actaully looks good also Walking Dead Season 1 is having a live performance ala The Last of Us Live performance.  

I think I will give it a watch as The Last Of Us Live Performance was excellent and TWD is rather good from a story point of view but might be weird seeing Melissa Hutchison instead of a little girl.

I thought it looked pretty bad to be honest. It's probably not directed at me though - I'm sure the Minecraft kiddies will love it.

I don't think kids will to be honest, they spoke about this on the recent videogamer podcast and they couldn't seem to figure out who it was aimed at as kids would just want to build things in minecraft not listen to dialogue.

Though half of them didn't seem too big on Telltale's games or lost interest after season one of TWD.

Yeah, that's a fair point. Maybe some of the slightly older Minecraft fans, like fans in their early teens?

I think Telltale have spread themselves way too thin, to be honest. Supposedly there's very little variance in the story in Game of Thrones compared to some of their earlier titles.

Aye totally agree that they're spreading themselves too thinly, I've really enjoyed GoT though and it's probably my favourite after TWD.

I need to go play EP3 of TotB at some point

The Live Performance of The Walking Dead Season 1, if you seen The Last of Us Live Performance this nowhere near the same level but still good have a look.

I think how thinly spread they are depends on if they get the current 2 out of the way before the next lot. I don't think they'll be suffering too much if they keep it in batches of 2, I'd just like the eps to come out a little bit quicker. Some of the Borderlands waits have been ridiculous, however I do feel that both GoT and TftB are both top quality and both are scratching very different story telling itches.

The only criticism I can levy at Telltale Games for their narrative driven games is the wait between episodes. Maybe it's just me but they don't even seem to advertise when a new ep is on the way, although I do quite like seeing the sudden pop up on twitter and getting really exited for more GoT. I've enjoyed the game adaptation much more than the show's most recent season, but nothing can top the books for me.

Wolf Among Us/Walking Dead 1 are incredible, and I'm going to pick up borderlands when the full set's out.

I think they tend to start tweeting about the game again 2 weeks before it comes out and then announce it the week before. I think I saw a Borderlands tweet this morning so fingers crossed...

Minecraft Stroy Mode is coming in October and will even becoming to Wii U at some-point.

I was really hoping you were going to say that the final Game of Thrones episode is out when I got a notification someone posted here.

It was a ruse, also did I see the other day the BttF is coming to PS4 etc.

I don't know if enough people play it for it to deserve its own thread, so I thought I'd slot it in here.

Life is Strange is really bloody good. Only 2 episodes in and I think I prefer it to any of the Telltale 'interactive graphic novel' type games. It seamlessly integrates its core gameplay mechanic (reversing time) with the narrative, the characters all make sense, the writing is good and the graphical stylisation is nice and crisp.

The choices seem to have more impact than TT games (and it does better at tracking them than TT), and each episode feels longer. There's just more everything; stuff to interact with, decisions, secrets, puzzles, but all of a high quality. The final episode is going to be released some time in October.

Would recommend anyone into the TT episodics to have a look, especially since the whole set is nearly ready.

I've really liked LIS, EP1 I found sort of so-so but each has gotten better & better.

It is the better "game" but not sure if it tops TT's overall storytelling though.

I've heard that the first 2 episodes are pretty naff but with a lot of potential and that it turns into something amazing at ep3. I've been thinking about picking it up for a while, but I don't have the space to keep another episodic game on my PS4 and I'm kind of hoping it'll have a physical version/go on sale again soon...

The end of EP3 is rather excellent along with a big emotional start for EP4.
