Great ending to a great game.

I wanted to find out, since I chose to have Lee's arm cut off - if you say not to have it cut off, does that drastically change the rest of the episode? Or does someone cut it off anyway Because my Lee really struggled to do most things, and I thought it was quite clever for Telltale to have it so Lee's handcuffed to the radiator (if you chose that, which I did), so he has no hands to help Clem defeat the zombie at the end.

I don't think it changes much. There's just little differences like having two weapons when approaching the hotel and Lee passing out on the ladder in the elevator shaft.

Only just noticed how the story ends the same way it began. Lee handcuffed, a dead cop and the role reversal of Lee passing Clem a weapon to bludgeon a walker to death with.

I've got a USA code for Ep1 of Walking Dead: The Game on iOS. PM me if you want it for free.

Is the iOS version the same as the console versions?

I came down with a cold when this was released, so it was only today that I finally felt well enough to play it.

I feel it's somewhat moot to debate how good this is as a "game". It was an incredible experience, and a big part of that came from the choices I made. Even though some of them probably didn't change much, it always felt like it did and that was enough. It was definitely at its worst during the action sequences, and death was always jarring for the wrong reasons, but these were really a small part of the whole and were never long enough to sour the rest.

There's an ongoing debate as to what actually defines a game, and according to some even something Minecraft doesn't meet those requirements as you can't "win" it. Maybe "videogame" is simply a bad term, but we're stuck with it. The Walking Dead is a videogame and it's amazing.

The ending is still stuck in my head, whenever I think back I get sad but the worst thing is...

not that lee died, i can handle that, it's the thought of clem alone with no hope no family left and no one to care for her. It breaks my heart to think she is a lonely child in an adults world. The game proved its a Dangerous world even for a group of adults. The glimmer of hope at the end may actually be bad depending on who it is on the hill. Her driving motivation was to find her parents, now that's gone what does she have left? Her new father figure also died, I'm scared she will give up or latch onto someone bad...

I'm trying to get a guy at work to play through this but he won't because he doesn't like zombies.

Just tell him when the apocalypse happens he is strawberry floated....it will play on his mind, he will play it

Did anyone cuff the policeman rather than Lee? What happens in that situation?

Something Fishy

Clem cuffs the policemans arms across each other to a pipe, then when she goes for the gun/keys the zombie rips off one of his arms through the cuffs and comes after her

I've been prepared for a while

And Episode 5 done.

Am I the only one who really wants a set of new characters for season 2?

Me too. I think though that an older Clem could be revisited in Season 5 or 6.

I think it'd be cheap as hell if they recycled Clem or Lee. I dont even want to see cameos. Leave them alone.

Just finished the first episode. It was pretty short but enjoyable.
