The Walking Dead - No Inverted look :(

Jase · 10 Feb 2013 at 13:42

I just got this for the PS3 as it got game of the year etc etc.

It looks great but I can't believe there is no option to invert look, I wish I'd read more about it or tried a demo because this is now totally unplayable for me.

Why on earth are games released without an invert option is beyond me.

Just to pre-warn anyone else may buy this and play with inverted look.

Don't get why people use inverted. I love the game however get some horrendous slow down at times on the 360!

I noticed this immediately after playing the game, quite annoying as I always use inverted Y axis.

I don't get why people don't

It's just what I'm used to and after 30+ years of playing games with an inverted Y axis, I'm not changing!

Yeah I've noticed slowdown in certain parts, usually the bit where you have to move the cursor thing... typical.

As for inverted, it's the natural way to me, I saw someone explain that if you were to force him to look up you'd pull his head back and if you forced him to look down you push his head down.. that pretty much explains it, that and some flight simulators years ago

How on earth this got voted Game of the year is beyond me, the story and choices you have to make are pretty good but the slowdown/stuttering on the 'action' bits is terrible in places. At the end of the day though it's a point and click adventure, it's nice but imo nothing more.

I disagree, it was a well earned win. Best game I played all year.

2012 wasn't the best year for games but I'd struggle to put it in the top 10.

It's not the worst game I've played this year, it would have been but Aliens has now snapped up that title

Thats the happiest response i've seen from some one who played aliens.
