The Walking Dead for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

There are a million games out there that can deliver you a decent story and fantastic graphics. It will consume your time to a point where you find nothing is missing. Plodding your way you find yourself at the same result of every major game you've ever played. A disappointing ending.

Enter "The Walking Dead." When I first loaded the game up, I dealt with the frustration that is video lag. I discovered it was because I was on the standard 4 gig system, which apparently didn't respond well to the game. Fine, I can handle it. I'll work my way through, even with the lag. The result? The best story I've ever experience in a zombie series yet.

You play as Lee Everett, a man who lost control once and was sentenced as a murderer. From the opening scene you see the regret in his eyes, and truly feel his fear as he fast approaches the rest of his life.

Then things take a twist, you are now at the mercy of wreckage and must make a quick escape, because the undead are coming. Fleeing you meet the person who makes surviving worth it, the 8 year old Clementine.

You are then faced with decisions that this little girl gets to witness. You find yourself seeking to be morally sound, so you might make this little girl smile. Her simple nod is enough to make you feel successful. This game encompasses what it is to live with your choices, and your regrets.

The game is designed around "The Walking Dead" comic books. The art is very cleanly done with all the bells and whistles of the comic. The voice acting is amazing. There was a clear direction in this game given to these actors, and they fulfilled it, brilliantly. The soundtrack fills the mood well, and offers a strong emotional response to certain situations.

The 5 episodes are unstoppable. You simply can't stop. When you hear the familiar words "Previously, on The Walking Dead" you know you can't stop.

I give this game an 8 out of 10 simply because of the technical issues that many experienced. Brilliant game
