What's Next

Hope it's decent. The Walking Dead comics are amazing. Funnily enough Puddy was reading these a while ago, you working on it man?

Edit - Whoops, you posted at the same time as me!

I just mean that there are so many zombie games out now and in development, it's the new WW2 and it's such a bummer. I was really hoping for something new and original.

Can't get worse than the first (non-telltale) Walking Dead game!

Definitely in the extreme Zombie fatigue camp, but a bigger issue from my perspective is that this will be competing directly with L4D3. That seems like a bad idea.

For me it's not even that this is zombies, it's Walking Dead. There's so much Walking Dead stuff out there now.

This is why I'm glad Valve took a break from L4D. I definitely felt fatigued and I've ignored all zombie games since, minus Last of Us

Come on guys, Puddy is developping this game, it must be great ! And there is still a lot to do about the atmosphere of zombie games, and The Walking Dead TV Series is doing a great job on this particular point for example.

I will give it a try of course

You know I got nothing but love for you Puddy but I think that reveal trailer really didn't do the game any justice. I actually found it pretty lame and annoying. I'm gonna wait for some proper footage before I judge. I mean, I'm done with zombies too (Dux said it best). However, The Last of Us proved to me that there's still live in that setting as long as you use it well. I had the same with the movie Warm Bodies. The trailer made me cringe but it turned out to be a pretty clever and entertaining movie that did something original with an overused setting.

Yeah, Overkill has some expectations to beat, but I totally think they can pull it off.

I agree that is the saving grace, Overkill and Starbreeze seem to be doing better and better work these days. Although I still haven't gotten around to Payday 2

God dammit.

I'd love to work on a zombie game, but as a gamer I don't feel like we need more of those right now. I really don't wanna steal your thunder though, Puddy. I'm sure there will be plenty of gamers excited about this - plus the fans of the graphic novel.

Is there any footage of this game yet or is it just the background on the "What's next?" website?

I love the Walking Dead comics so if you could take all of the good stuff from them and make a game it could be great!

I'm totally jealous you're working on a zombie game!

Yeah The Walking Dead doesn't really tend to focus on the zombies too much, it's more about the interactions with other survivors. Wonder how that's gonna translate into gameplay.. Probably not at all

okay that was a disappointment .... i still love you overkill peeps though !

Damn i was pretty close.

Some months since the announcement, any news about the game ?

Come on, i wont tell IGN
