dead island was fine, played it through 3 times with no problems, 1st on my own 2nd and 3rd with friends.
It's not really fair to compare this to Dead Island, this is an inexpensive point and click with zombies that comes out with one episode a month totalling 5 episodes.
Broken Sword with Zombies was an awesome way to put it, wannabedamned!
Dead Island was a full retail action/adventure game released with many bugs. The best thing about it was the trailer.

I played PC version of Dead Island around Christmas time and loved it. Obviously the graphics/frame rates were much better than console but I don't see why I wouldn't have enjoyed it a lot anyway...
Will get Walking Dead when it's on a Steam sale - love the TV show and Telltale usually come up trumps for this type of game.

bought it earlier on the PS3, was a bit confused when i went to install it and nothing appeared. apparently you have to install the trial in order to get the game files etc.

According to the forums on Telltale Games website, it's now slated for a June release, but no date has been confirmed yet. It's a bit haphazard the way Telltale Games are doing it, it suggests episode 2 is incomplete or there's a problem they are struggling to fix, can't see any other reason why they wouldn't have announced a date yet!

ah ok, shame though, if their is too long a gap, it could easily be forgotten about
Was thinking that myself. I expected it to be a more uniform monthly release, not a haphazard "sometime in June"
Luckily for them I bought the whole "season" but those who didn't could end up being lost customers.

Played the demo. Enjoyed it for what it was. Think I will probably buy it once episode 2 comes out and I can see what people are saying.
How long does episode one last for roughly?

It's quite short, maybe a couple of hours depending on your problem solving skills (it's not exactly difficult though). It is a good experience though and well worth playing, plus it has some slight replay value in that you can go back and explore other dialogue trees and make different major choices.

what simi said, plus you get a taster of what is to come which i thought was a really nice touch. its very much like a TV series.

A couple of hours sounds fairly decent for the price. Think ill purchase this tonight.

The Walking Dead: Episode 2 releasing “around the end of June”
http://www.vg247.com/2012/06/16/the-walking-dead-episode-2-releasing-around-the-end-of-june/
Telltale has said Episode 2 of The Walking Dead will be released “around the end of June.” Speaking with Kotaku, the developer said the reason they haven’t provided a firm date for it, is it’s currently waiting on the certification process. The second episode takes place three months after the conclusion of Episode 1, and “things have gotten tenser—food is scarce, and no one in the party is a particularly good hunter.” Thanks, manamana.
at this rate i'll be playing ep 3 on a next gen console

I'm so glad I didn't go for the season pass, I avoided because I thought I would forget about it after a few months but I also thought I would have played a few episodes by then. You would think they would have had the first few episodes ready to release before episode 1 was released to avoid stuff like this, I just hope it's worth waiting for.

Just finished watching the TV show. So I will get this soon. It looks like a good few hours of fun.
I thought by now that there would be another episode out.
