    Seriously a mature adult series looks like a kids game?

    I pray the story is season 1 of the TV series and I hope we don't do an entire 5 paid ep of finding a lost girl like season 2 of the series

    Pretty sure the graphics are a take from the comic itself rather the TV series. and the plot is not following the characters from the TV series either. you play a different character. If anything this game is using the poularity of the TV series to get attention.

    You mean the art style? Define how a "kid's game" would look because I don't really get what you're talking about.

    Because it's about The Walking Dead.

    Not the tv show they try to pass off as The Walking Dead.

    cel shaded graphics are not very popular anyone remember the Celda issues ten years ago?

    It's meant to look like the comics.

    Here we go again with people who have no interest in the comics, and think everything revolves around the show...
  • Apr 28, 2012 4:16 pm GMT
    Based on the much better comics, and I think its works better. Most of the crap that ruins the show was added in.

    Why make a topic like this when you still live with mom and dad?
    You should enjoy a 'kids game' until your bedtime, around 7:30-ish.

    You have no idea how deep a sigh I let out when I read this.

    Even if you're just an ignorant little kid who doesn't know better it's still really really sad. Someone clearly needs to smack whatever role model is teaching you this crap.

    I don't assume everyone on this board is a kid (where did you even get that impression?), just you. Only a kid would think these graphics even remotely look like a "kids game". That's utterly asinine.

    Graphics are one of the least important things when it comes to games. Gameplay, Story, Controls, Sound, Music, Replayability, Difficulty are some of the things more important than Graphics.

    Young people who's first system was a PS2 or PS3 will never understand that. Graphics will never stand the test of time as it's one of the things constantly improving with each next-generation console.

    Gameplay, Story, Controls, Sound, Music, Replayability, Difficulty, for example, are what stand the test of time and what make some of the older NES, SNES, PS1 games still great to this day.

    Lol, "kids game". Maybe if all the blood and gore was replaced by rainbows and the zombies looked like something out Plants vs Zombies, but that's not even remotely the case.

    I honestly can't believe there are actually still people out there that automatically think "kids" when they see anything remotely cartoony. That's basically the same mindset of the people who look at video games and think "toys".

    It looks like the comic and is apart of that world. I love the graphics and am totally glad they went this route. The game is so good. By the way, the tv show is the worst part of the walking dead. Since you mentioned it while complaining I figured you may be a troll.


    If you aren't, try reading the comics. They're so much better than the show it's unbelievable. I wasn't into comics much until I read it.

    I like the art style of the game. In fact, if the comic series ever added color, I'd most likely collect that as well. I just can't get past the black and white layout. I love the TV show. It's my favorite show at the moment. I know the comic purists will probably hate me for that but I say to each their own. You enjoy the Walking Dead universe in your way and I'll enjoy it in mine. In the end, just be happy that the TV show is likely gathering a larger audience for your beloved comic series and probably extending its run.
