I wasn't even aware there's a game like that out there!
I hope you're happy, Brant, for you will be responsible for my grades dropping.

Meh.
Finished the first episode, took like a couple of hours.
It's fun no doubt, but really short, 2 hours once a month isn't really much.

Appreciate the info. Is it a Steam only game or did you get it somewhere else?

Got it for the PS3 from the online store.

Ah. I stopped after PS2. I'll check around the usual suspects to see what I can find out. How many episodes are planning on releasing - 5 isn't it? IYO - worth the dough?

It seemed like more of a console worthy game to me (it's more of a quest than anything else) plus I don't like steam too much.
An episode costs 25 shekels (which is 6.5 USD~) and the full 5 (1 immediately and the rest- 1 episode a month, to my understanding) is 99 NIS (26.5 USD~), to me it's worth it, it's fun and interesting plus I'm into zombies, you should do your considerations but it's pretty cheap, cheaper than seeing a movie.

I've been following it very closely over there. That is where I go for my game info!

This story driven game has me hooked. Pretty well written, and it has affected me much more than anything I have ever played. Wonderful stuff.

I guess it could be called a fighting game.
Not against the zombies - you're fighting the interface all the way through.
Even Battlecruiser 3000 had a more logical and consistent UI and that game wasn't exactly known for it's user friendliness.
Not a bad story, though, if you can endure the game for that long.

Yeah, it's pretty fun, very story-driven and worth a try since it's usually pretty cheap. Just make sure not to spoil yourself in terms of the plot at all, because given how minimal some of the gameplay is, the power of the story is quite important.

I am not ashamed to say that the ending of season 1 made me cry. My face was soaking wet. Incredible stuff.
