or whatever..

So you know what really sucks?If you were kind enough to save Ben in the 4th episode, he is the reason why Kenny dies sooner then he should. I got so mad!I don't want Ben's blood to be on my hands!And i want Kenny to live, i just...why?
I know this is very short, but i just wanted to point it out. I thought they were just being dramatic when they said "THE CHOICES YOU MAKE WILL COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU"...but they actually will. I am very very sorry, but Ben has to go.

    Kenny dies anyway, but a little later. It's also more heroic, and with a slightly larger chance of him getting away.

    Aw, crap, I hit the wrong choice.

    Definitely meant sacrifice Ben for Kenny. I was done with Ben after he confessed he was the one who made a deal with the bandits and inadvertently led to Carly's death.

    After that, it was one big fail after another. Running away a surrounded Clementine, for one. I took pity on him and pulled him up at the bell tower, then the freakin' boat's gone? Gah...

    I re-played episode 3 a million times to see if Lilly would kill him instead (I liked Carly that much), but we all know how that turned out.

    I played ep5 1 day ago , and when the moment when ben and kenny were down there i payed atention , and : kenny locked me there and then shooted ben , but we cant hear kenny's screams of pain when he was bitten , and we also couldn't see him diying, si i think somehoe he survived , just like you in ep 4 trapped in that alley

    Seriously, I really don't understand why people like/d Kenny so much! Sure he's useful but let's face it, he was always out in pursuit of his family's happiness. He saved his kid and then let someone's else lose their son. He showed so many examples of 'ruthlessness' and in the last episode when Lee says something along the lines of 'you can kill me then', he yells without even a second thought 'I WILL'. honestly, Kenny hasn't shown me what is so great about himself. I honestly dislike him. ANNNNNND he doesn't even help you find clementine if you disagree with him even once throughout the episodes? Nah, he's wrong for that. Most of the people who hate Ben would actually BE Ben if ish really did hit the fan. Being scared and making mistakes, that's just what happens when you don't know what to do and you don't want to die. That's just my two cents.

    I'd take Kenbro over Ben, definitely. I'm not saying I'd drop Ben at Crawford, though. That's still a pretty evil choice considering how easy it is to pull him up, imo. Kenny dies anyways so I don't drop Ben, but I'd gladly sacrifice Ben to save Kenny.

    Of course Kenny, because i hate Ben... I let him fall from the Church Tower. He deserved it

    kenny didn't die, it's pretty obvious. rule of thumb = if you didn't see the death, and there's no body; it didn't happen. his ambiguous "death" of kenny is merely being backed into a corner, with sounds of resistance. keeping in mind, kenny wears a long sleeve shirt:

    they also did character foreshadowing for the next season. regardless if you lie or tell the truth about your zombie infection. kenny says that he'd lie about his own infection as well. which leads me to believe that in season 2, kenny will be bitten; and he'll hide it.

    I found Kenny's death rather pointless (if you chose to save Ben), he could have easily mercy-killed Ben and gotten away from the walkers. Didn't have to lay down his life simply to put down Ben.

    Just goes to show how useless Ben was in the end, despite all the promises of making it up to Lee.

    I really wanted to like Kenny, but he more often than not his actions would irk me. Then, in Episode 5... Just when the Ben/Kenny thing was working itself out & I was really getting to like him...

    Crap! :mad:

    I agree, I thought that saving Ben could have been done without sacrificing himself. In all the time that he spent arguing with Lee over "it has to be this way" he could have gone, grabbed Ben, run back to the alley, and shut the gate so that everyone was on the safe side. You might say that he wanted it this way so he could die and be with his family, but 20 minutes before he was saying how you have to keep going no matter what.

    When saving Christa, that's different and less conflicting with what he had said, not to mention the best way to save her. I just wish that, if they HAD to kill off Kenny, they thought it out better in the Ben scenario.

    yepp i agree with you, but if you ask me ben or kenny i will choose kenny because your with him from Episode 1/5 he's like Lee's best friend. I dont like changes in games.

    At that moment i was like DUDE DO YOU HAVE A BRAIN, But no he has to kill himself too. They made the death off kenny too easy. Just let him die by a bite too or a suprise attack by a zombie just something. Telltale made the deaths of kenny and ben on the end too easy pointless nonsense.
    Have bad English :)

    I think it is fitting that Ben's death scene gets someone else killed

    Just dropping him is just mean

    One word.
    Chuck.

    I mean we find his body later, but he pretty much "died" in the same way as Kenny and we find him being feasted on later.
