The folks at TopTierTactics have quoted TellTale saying they are about to submit Episode 2 for Certification on PS3 and Xbox 360, which means that Xbox and PSN will test the game against stuff like servers, glitches and approve it for their stores. Here's a description of Episode 2 from T3.
Note: The end of the first block quote has a slight spoiler regarding something that has been established in both TV and Comics.
“This is an example of a time where we want you to have to make major decisions under pressure. Things are moving franticly, and I only have a few seconds to make my decisions or we’ll be overwhelmed by walkers.” After a gruesome sequence involving an axe, a leg, and one journalist’s lunch, the group returned to camp, and we were shown a sequence involving a bit more of the character’s dialogue.
“One of the things that people like about The Walking Dead is that it’s about the characters and their interactions. It just happens to be set in the zombie apocalypse. We stayed very true to that design here.” As the remaining cast was reintroduced, we were given a bit of background on each of their personalities. Of course, the characters you meet may be different that what we were shown depending on how Episode 1 played out for you.
Food supplies were low, and the dialogue sequence led to the player having to distribute the rations for the day. “This is an example of one of the more thoughtful types of choices we give the player. Here I only have 4 pieces of food, and I have to decide which of these 9 people to feed.”
While we watched the dialog play out, with many callbacks to outcomes from part one, an important mention was made: “While we’re showing you a few of the events which will very obviously affect you down the road, there’s a lot of places where we don’t make it quite so blatant. Everything you do could have consequences, and you don’t always know what those are.”
The demo ended with one of the casualties turning, and a major revelation from the comics. “Wait, you guys don’t know? It’s not the bite that does it. If you don’t destroy the brain, you come back no matter how you die. It’s going to happen to every single one of us"
Here is where TopTierTactics had quoted TellTale.
“We’re about to submit Episode 2 for certification for Xbox and Playstation, and we’re targeting a release on those platforms about 30 days from now.” The PC version will likely be coming before that. We were also given a chance to try the iOS version of the game, which is coming soon™ . Episode 1 is available on XBLA for 400 Microsoft Points, and on PSN for $5. The PC version is available on Steam as a Season Pass for $25.It is pretty likely they’ll follow their previous pattern of releasing individual episodes after that.
It appears PC players will get the game before us on Steam due to it's easy verification process. Thoughts?
