6/10 not sounding too good. But I think I still need to play it off the strength of heavy rain.

Seems like this game is getting either 5s or 8s. Not a 60 buck game in my book.

Getting mixed reviews so far, but the $2.12 investment is not bothering me.

I wanted to check it out anyway and appears to be a love/hate kind of game

This game would have been better if it were like heavy rain and you could play as several main characters to alter the story, game is too linear. i dig ellen tho.

you paid $2 for the game?

Didn't heavy rain get pretty mixed reviews too?

I think the nature of these games makes them very polarizing, but I liked heavy rain allot, so I'll probably like this one too

Been reading around the web and I have to say I feel sorry for the people involved in this game.

You can tell they put a lot more heart and soul into this game than most other games. It must suck to see your work being trashed for what seems like trivial reasons. I think I'm gonna buy this one at full price, if not for anything but to support this type of game/ambition.

Theyre hating. For what it is its very engaging and entertaining. If you have it in your mind that the game is going to be short you may not enjoy it, but, with this game it doesnt feel short to me. The game is engaging and pulls you in and i cant say ive had moments where i was bored like that. Alot of set pieces in this game. Alot of action in this game.

Its like the old school Dragon Quest arcade games in some ways where for every direction you move the controller during the action sequence something different happens. I give this game a 9 for what it is. Having alot of fun.

Before I got a chance to see more of it, I thought it was gonna be something similar to Uncharted's gameplay... once it became apparent the entire game is a giant soap opera with quick-time events?

it's sickening how twd gets lauded as GOTY last year yet has abysmal gameplay but this somehow is under the scrutiny of biased journalists.

 

[King Sun]

Rather play games like that instead of every cod game and its rip offs that saturate the market

Seems like from what I'm reading people are dissing the game cause they don't like David Cage. Or they are dissing it for being exactly the type of game it was made to be.

TWD actually told a great story! Granted I haven't played this. But TWD was way better than Indigo and Heavy Rain based on story and atmosphere. And the way it had people believing their choices really affected the story.
