    Been watching TWD release uber thread closely (both of them) and patiently waited on the sidelines.

    Watched Xbox get it, watched PC get it and now I have it.......
    BUT, oh wait, its broken? Can this be? Surely with as much time spent silently (Some storm) in preperation it can't be?

    Have the day off, not sitting around waiting for some game to come out. Who can afford to do that anyways and please, fill me in.

    Not going to repeat the same shit everyone else has said, that horse is unrecognizable but, I signed up only to stress the bad taste that's been left in my mouth by this unfortunate turn of events.

    Hi, just downloaded episode 2 for my PS 3 and it will not lauch. I click on my last save and click on PLAY episode 2 and it just kicks me back to the main PS3 menu? Any ideas?
  • edited June 2012
    The PS3 release is not working. I downloaded the episode and installed it normally, but now it just boots me back to the selection screen (like others have described here).

    Yeah same here :/ my heart was racing when it was dowloading but then I tried to play and nothing :/

    When i load Ep. 2,
    it exits the game,
    and takes me back to my home page!

    What am I doing wrong?
  • edited June 2012
    This is not an isolated event involving a handful of Playstation 3 systems. The official Playstation blog is exploding with complaints. No one can play Episode 2.

    And obviously, I'm having the same problem. After selecting episode 2, the game kicks me out to the dashboard.

    your not doing anything wrong, were all having the issues and these butt bags refuse to answer us as to whats going on.

    There's something wrong with Episode 2. No one can play it...

    I would seriously love to play Episode 2, but I keep getting booted to the XMB. What the hell, Tale Tell?!

    I'm looking into this now, and I appreciate your patience. I'll update the thread as soon as I have more information.

    Have any of you tried deleting episode 2 and redownloading it?
  • edited June 2012
    As Max Payne would say.......
    "GODDAMMIT!"
    No, but really, I came from the Playstation Blog to find some answers and I arrive to find that the staff members don't give a shit about us.

    I did, and it did the same thing. Booted me to the homescreen.

    Thanks for the update, Mike.

    I have actually done this twice; it still kicks me out to the dashboard.

    I think everyone has tried deleting and reinstalling, I also tried a shutdown and restart. Thanks for replying to us

  • edited June 2012

    its not Telltale games its Tell"lies" games.

    Okay, so I've been lurking on the forum for a while now, but decided to join just now to express my disappointment as well.

    As every other PS3 user has already stated, I downloaded the game then tried to play episode 2 using my save game from the first episode and it just kicks me to the home screen.

    I didn't buy the first episode the day it came out or anything, so maybe I have little "right" to complain...but I did buy the season pass...and we had to wait longer than expected for the release of the new episode, and it really is ridiculous that after all of the waiting the new episode finally launches and it doesn't even work the way it's supposed to.

    Very frustrating. I've already played the first episode several times, I don't want to have to go start from scratch yet again...and even then, is there ANY guarantee that the second episode will actually work? They seriously need to get on this. Ridiculous.

    Its my day off from work...I really wanted to continue the game (loved the first chapter) and now its not working for PS3 - and yes Ive tried re downloading and installing)

    It just kicks me to the main menu-hope you guys fix it asap :(

    I cant start it as whell ,on ps3 , it sends me back to ps3 starting menu. WTF a 2 month wayt for nothing ,ttg this is awfull. i bought the season pass too, make it right before the fucking weekend come , PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • edited June 2012
    I've had no luck so far, at least they're looking into it.

    It's understandable to be a bit frustrated, but the people acting immature aren't really helping. Give them a bit of time, before flipping out.
  • edited June 2012
    So, I tried deleting one of my saves and starting ep2 with random choices.
    NO BEUNO.
    DONT DELETE YOUR SAVES lol
  • edited June 2012
    Whenever I click play on episode 2 in the episode menu on the PS3 version of the game, my screen goes black for awhile then sends me back to my main PS3 menu with my games,trophies etc. Ive tried redownloading Episode 2 and it did not change anything. Right now Im deleting episode 1 and redownloading that AND episode 2 to see if anything changes. TELLTALE PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP
  • edited June 2012
    Another problem... when I tried playing Episode 1, now all of the dialogue options are completely blank. The cross-section that usually displays the buttons (for dialogue options) is completely blank and pushing buttons does absolutely nothing. So now I can't even play episode 1!
