Telltale Games, developers of Sam & Max and the recent Back to the Future adaptation, are gearing up to unveil five new projects at an event on February 17th. One of these new games is described as being “based on a just-launched property from the TV and comic book world whose popularity is changing life as some know it.”
The first property that comes to mind is The Walking Dead, a popular comic book series penned by Robert Kirkman, which was adapted into a six-episode TV series last year (which was excellent, by the way.) The Walking Dead has been in print since October 2003, and is hailed as the definitive zombie-themed character drama.
Telltale Games have yet to comment on rumours surrounding the new project.

Must watch the TV series, hopefully it is good, hopefully the game will be even better

It’s a great watch, but don’t expect it to be action-heavy. There is a lot of thought behind the characters, who you’ll become attached to quickly.
