I just picked up my issue of The Walking Dead Issue 96 and in the back is the ad for your game. However, instead of saying "Coming Soon" or something like that it said. "Download Now."
So after I finished reading 96, I saw that. Freaked. (Cause I've been quite excited about this game) Turned my xbox on and searched franticly until I used the search to look for it. And it wasn't there.
In the words of Tommy Wiseau. YOU'RE TEARING ME APART LISA!
Little side note, don't know if you guys can affect the release date directly, but a neat idea would be doing it on Wednesdays. Think about it. It's based in the comic universe and new comics come out every Wednesday. It'd connect to the series on not only an internal but external level
Well I always preorder from the Telltale site, as more money goes to Telltale.
I won't believe that 24th April release date until Telltale confirms it themselves, though it does seem like a good possibility.
Telltale, would you please confirm the date for all systems? We would really appreciate that.
Yeah highly likely it will be next week tbh. Telltale never give the exact date until the last minute.
In fact for one of the Back to the future episodes they didn't give a date at all, and there was a surprise release.
But yeah, they never normally give a release date until they are 100% sure they can make it.

It's happened more than once. I remember Episode 2 of Hector was released with absolutely no notice of the fact whatsoever. There wasn't even a blog post about it or anything.
I would lean more towards the 24th if Telltale released on traditional release days. That is a Tuesday. It either has to be the rest of this week, next week, or one of the two days the week after that. If it doesn't come by then I'm sure this place will light up like a Christmas tree. I'm actually leaning towards a surprise release for this first episode....
24th, 25th, PSN, Steam, or XBLA. The Walking Dead will be here next week. That is all i need to hear. What i am wondering is, for those who did NOT pre order or purchase their copy off of Telltale's site, if they'll still be entered into their little sweepstake for the appearance in future episodes. i did pre order off of telltale so im not worried about myself but am just curious for those who go through steam an etc.
xbox and psn will almost always be a day late because they update their selections when they feel the need to not when the game itself comes out xbox normally faster probleby be midnight on the 25th if the game hits on the 24th psn not sure when they will release it they are normally a bit slower than xbox for some reason.and steam noticing on them it will be like 11 or noon of the release date like the 24th. telltale site problably be almost immediate because its their game and they dont gotta send it anywhere they just basically have to pop a switch and then its active.
I would be interested to see if the game comes out in Europe (Germany) and US on PS3 the same Day.
In the past we had to wait in Europe always good 3-6 weeks to a Telltale game, regardless of whether Sam & Max Season 2 +3, back to the future or Jurrasic Park.
1. Can you possibly tell us when the XBLA demo will be available?
2. Can you at the very least tell us when the next episode of Playing Dead will be released? I see you have empty spots for episodes 4 through 8 are those episodes intended to be released before the game or are they going to spread out through the game's seasons?
So the console versions won't make the late April release date? I'm guessing not, cause PSN(where I want to play it) only updates on Tuesdays. Depressing.
Not telltales fault though they sell their stuff to the respective 3rd partys then its up to them to distribute it why i always buy directly from the sites when i can.
has that banner been changed? the banner you post and the one up the top makes absolutely no mention of any date at all...
more exactly it states: Join the cast. Pre-order contest. The Walking Dead. $24.99(crossed out). $22.49. Get a chance to join the cast of the walking dead and die a horrible death. Click here to learn more.

Curious when the 1st episode of #TWD will hit? Look for it THIS TUESDAY April 24th on PC & MAC with XBLA & PSN versions also coming soon!
i dunno man i think they might set it back to sometime in may
can only hope it comes out next Wednesday 25th
but if they put it back i know it will be for the best they want this game
to run as smooth glitch free and laggy free as possible
and to also make it feel like a great game and not a rush job
its the 24 of April for pc/mac and i believe its the 25th for Xbox owners
because Microsoft leaked the date by mistake on there website and has since been pulled down from xbox.com
and ps3 users might get it on the 25th or but i dont see it happening because psn does not update till monday/tuesday so im saying 30th or the 1st for ps3 users
and for ios they might get it 24th,25th or the 26th
dunno could most likely be the 25th because Microsoft leaked the Xbox release date on Xbox.com and that has since been pulled from the site
so my bet is on Wednesday if not then
its because they might be having a few problems with bugs in the games code and things like that
As always, Sony's quality validation process - and their own release schedule ideas, especially for Europe - can make the PS3 release pretty unpredictable. There's only one thing that really helps.

Who cares... it will be the next week.

I'm sure there are other cases too.

Yep, and Xbox Live Store says 25th.
The exact day is not confirmed.
In the past we had to wait in Europe always good 3-6 weeks to a Telltale game, regardless of whether Sam & Max Season 2 +3, back to the future or Jurrasic Park.
The entry is automatic...
I don't think so. I assume that those past releases felt to run peachy to Sony, so they'd hardly change those things. :rolleyes:

Here's one from the Telltale website's homepage:

Will this release only be in America for now or is it a world wide release?
can only hope it comes out next Wednesday 25th

This. The release has been announced already.
so my bet is on Wednesday if not then
its because they might be having a few problems with bugs in the games code and things like that
I was correct! Happy 4/20!!!
