WHILE IM PLAYING THE WALKING DEAD, i wont be like wow this games fantastic, ill be like yay im playing this brilliant game FROM THIS SHITTY GOD DAMN DEVELOPERS.
Hey Vain, I'd make an extra special effort to remind 360 players to not spoil the rest of us on the story with the titles of their threads, I'd rather not have "OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS GUY DIED" show up as a top page while viewing the forums.
When I was young, there could be a year between platform versions. And somehow, as an AMIGA user, I always ended up with the short stick and the darn PC guys always got things far earlier and far better. Hasn't really made me bitter.
It's two days. 48 hours. Ready for the weekend. And personally, I'll be working most of the "waiting" time anyway.

It's always a risk and moderators are not always around. Users can not modify thread titles themselves, but they can use spoiler tags in their messages!! So if that happens and there's no swift mod around, remind the user to use tags... and don't kill him. For the love of God, don't kill him. I mean, you're expecting me (as a PC user) to get spoiled with every single thread that emerges before the PC version of TWD ep 2. And I will be spoiled!
Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know we're launching The Walking Dead - Episode 2 on Xbox 360 tomorrow and PSN (North America) Friday and PSN (EU) soon! EDIT PC coming this Friday too!
Absolutely disgusted that the PC Season Pass subscribers are being shafted because of some deal with Microsoft, when most likely, we could have been playing the game a week or two ago!!!

Agreed Sir! That is why this whole PC on Friday release thing is Bollocks!
After all - even with the new release date. Without TTG telling us some real infos this was probably my last game from them.
Not because of the wait but because of the direspect by keeping silence so long and telling us nothing about nothing. If M$ is behind all this...not my problem. If TTG wants to keep me as customer they should have treaded the customer with a higher priority than this company. I loved their games and bought a lot of them and I really love adventures and I would really WANT to buy some future products but I won't do so without a proper explanation. The ones given now only tells me that they are more concerned about other companys like M$ and their reputation than about their own reputation and satisfied customers.
I don't know.. I don't care!
I only paid $5 for EP1 and deposited enough to pay $5 for EP2 tomorrow!
And YES fair.. if Xbox user's had to wait day's after PC and PS user's and this time it's reversed, then YES it's fair!
I think you'll survive 2 day's. Hell, Clem is a 1st grader surviving the zombie apoc by herself for longer than that, I think you can handle just a couple day's for a video game!
I'm just glad to have confirmation of a release date at last. And as usual, when we DO get a specific date from Telltale, it's right around the corner.
I'm done with episodic gaming after this. I'll play this game since it's already been paid for in full. But I will never, and I mean never, buy episodic or Tell tale brand games again.
Why the hell should i believe you this time? You better hooooope your not lying sir.
I dont think they have ever announced a set date before and not delivered.
At least now we got a real date, so I think it is safe to say that it will finally be released this time.
And technically they did not lie about June if they deliver on this.

I think you are missing the point here. It is not about the 2 days extra waiting it is about the reason (which soes not exists). TTG would never have to wait for the schedules if they had only released the game on PC as they did before. And now the PC users will be the last to play the gane? I just would like to know one good reason for this decision. "We want to release on all platforms simultaneoulsly" couldn't be it now. I really still don't get this whole platform release nonsense....game is ready - release it - end of story. Where is my mistake in that logic?
Your logic is flawless and I agree with it in principle (I'm a PC gamer after all!), but it lacks a teensy bit of comparativeness. TWO DAYS! Just two days! A week, that would have been unkind. A month, that would have been a sin.
Two hours ago, I didn't even think they'd make June.

GG.
We wont have to, they will have plenty of capital after TWD to put up for the next game they develop without relying on the episodic model to fund.

Yeah that is what sucks... I guess i cant visit the forums at all from tomorrow.
no waiting for xbox users regardless of location, game will be available when marketplace updates tomorrow, so between 5-9 in uk i guess. (i tweeted the guy asking the exact same thing, his response was this)

Any way to make a sub forum for episode 2, to try and cut down on people being spoiled.
Also, tonight I will be drawing the contest winners. One person who correctly guessed the pc and on who guessed the 360 reads will each win a commission.

Fingers crossed for you "The Ripper" for guessing the 27th!

Even as a PC gamer I have to agree with that.
It is a bit disappointing, but not the end of the world.
Sure hell of a lot better than missing the June deadline.
i feel very strongly about the anti pc and ps3 europe decision..
yes i would of been singing praises of ttg if pc/steam got it tomorrow but why the difference ?
is it to keep the team ready for bug fixing ? but on an xbox there's not a quick fix ?
is it because microsoft demanded ttg release it earlier because of the delay of ep1 ?
or is it because they like getting more abuse like a bunch of masochists/sadists ?
but this time from pc users instead of consolers ?
and i feel yes it's been two months yes two days ain't that much but the spoilers ttg the spoilers !!

You're far too kind.
I was in for the right PC guessers and I'll stick to that!
Thought up an interesting way to determine who of the nine lucky ones gets the commission. I could throw a die but I want to avoid the impression that I had picked one at will, so we're doing it this way:
The Mathematical Association of America has a website named A Number a Day. The numbers are mostly arbitrary, so I can not know what tomorrow's number is. The nine voters in alphabetical order and the number of tomorrow, June 27th, will determine the winner, with 1 = Adrianasun, 2 = DonBer, 3 = Ellenflowers and so on, continuing with 10 = Adriansun again to infinity.
Today's number is 913, which would have been a win for number 4, fellow mod Hero1. Let's see how your chances are tomorrow, hero...

i am now going to rehab....
They had to know people were going to wonder why the decision....yet again the masters of conveyance prevail!!
well, since the 29th falls on a friday, and psn only updates on a wednesday, i,m guessing that means we won,t get it till next week, which would be 4th july. so much for late june eh?
Just saying, didn't PC get Episode 1 first? So aren't you guys being a bit selfish saying that Xbox getting Episode 2 first is bad? (I'm a PS3 user so I'm neither of those)
Besides, to those of you complaining "We had to wait three months!", no, you had to wait two months; suck it up and move on. The game will be released within the week, you can survive.
it's the principle of ttg shafting another set of users, my thoughts on the meeting..
#right people we got all formats sorted when do we release? microsoft says first.. so can we do all at once ? no we send xbox first as an apology for ep1 delay and the extra long period for ep2 itself..then we take two days to polish the game if there are bugs on launch then we send it out for everyone else..but sir the pc/ps3 they won't like waiting! it's only fair they wait... no sir i disagree... well i'm the boss and your fired...#

Are the rest of the episodes planned to be release on a montly basis?

Just kidding. I can't wait for this friday ^^.

European users have to wait it appears, unfortunately for them.

They win!!!
YEAH TTG! Very disappointed!

I'm one of the suckers that payed in full up front.
So yeah they won my $, but at the cost of a future customer. :mad:
So they can enjoy my money, it is the last of it they will see.
It is a bit disappointing, but not the end of the world.
Sure hell of a lot better than missing the June deadline.
Thank you, man!!!
