    Why does IGN have Episode 4 release date in December 31, 2012 on there? I hope not.. http://www.ign.com/videos/2012/10/01/the-walking-dead-the-game-ep-4-around-every-corner-trailer

    Placeholder date as always.

    Enough said.

    very very soon followed by days of silence ;) gotta love it/hate it/love it
  • edited October 2012
    I vote for hate it. It is like i predicted earlier in this thread, we would here something about one month after release, wow, a blog post with no real meaning, and it will be out about the end of october.

    According to precedent, episode 4 is due at the end of October. If it comes out earlier, to me, pure gravy.

    Going to have myself a mighty good laugh when the "retail full-version" of the game hits stores in December with its pre-order announcment.

    Were still in October. I'd be more than surprised if Ep. 4 was delivered before November.

    somehow garrinski i doubt your chuckle muscles are going to be needed ;)

    I'm thinking it'll come out on either the 23rd or the 30th. It takes Microsoft and Sony several weeks to give the okay for their platforms after all.

    Hoping for a simultaneous release this time, I don't care waiting a week more, but NA users playing it earlier than europeans piss me off a bit... :eek:

    I'm with you there. Hopefully TTG have learnt their lesson from last time's shit storm because of the delay, and wait so that they can do a simultaneous release.

    Telltale has never come as close to the idea of worldwide simultaneous releases than with The Walking Dead Series, period. Their partners are obviously doing great in finally understanding what almost-monthly periodic releases actually mean for their workload. So I would not rule out that SCEE will be even closer to the PSN NA release than with episode 2 (which was just five work days).

    But if you're gearing up so much hope for an altogether unlikely completely simultaneous release that a disappointment would "piss you off a bit", well, just don't do that. There's no entitlement to those simultaneous releases, SCEE is known for lagging a bit not just for TWD and the moderators are maintaining a dedicated spoiler/story discussion forum just for those few days 'between releases'.

    A simultaneous release of TWD for both NA and EU might be very problematic for many reasons, so I'd settle for a simlutaneous telling of release dates. For example if they would say "Release date for NA is the 20th, and for EU the 31st", that would calm a lot of people I'm sure.

    You could ofcause buy an X-box, and then you get it in the same time in EU, as in NA;)

    Certainly. And if I had enough money I could buy TTG and make sure that episode 5 became a "for me only exlusive for ever". But I say that I've already paid enough for the game and I don't want to spend more on it.:)

    Shit, I guessed today as release day

    Worth noting that with episode 3, they waited until 5 pm PST on release day before actually launching it.
  • edited October 2012
    But they did announce the release several days in advance. With the walking dead, they have never release without a few days heads up
  • edited October 2012
    Has anyone noticed that Nick from TTG voted for Oct 9th? That would be nice.

    I said the same on ep3........... about 3 hours later was online... :D
    But in my case was the EU release, the NA version was announced a couple of days in advance.

    I would like to place a bet, if Telltale releases the game in Europe PSN at the same time as others (I understand the one day US/EU difference) and does not appear the week after. I will send them the price of the episode in my country. ;)

    So make sure you release on time Telltale and you'll get some extra money your way;)

    Nothing official here, but just noticed the game is back on the front page of Steam. From past episodes, that means release is imminent. A few days before the new episode, Steam starts promoting the game again. This is good news.

    That's what I look for as well. Steam also updates the trophies just prior to release.

    Im guessing 31st of october for episode 4, and im thinking there working on 5 right now waiting for the release of 4, so probably 31st of november for episode 5 too, waiting longer for the release of 4 gives them longer to work on 5. Im happy to wait anyway, will be enjoying Xcom in a few short days so that will keep my mind occupied.

    Hasn't been released on the TTG YouTube channel but you you can watch it on some site. Check Gary Whitta's twitter , he retweets a direct link to it.

    It's the first video, as you'll see.. and the article is quite good as well, I must say. I'd recommend you give it a read :D

    Thanks Viser! I'm always up for a good article/video combo, especially when it comes to TWD!

    Neat! It's great that TT showed the amount of people who picked which weapon on the train. I was still curious to know how many people pushed Omid off the railing or not, though.
