Austin Griffith and Chris Lock had a chance to sit down and chat with Telltale Games' Harrison Pink, the writer of Episode 3 of the blockbuster hit The Walking Dead game. He shares an inside look at not only The Walking Dead game, but also Telltale Games'.
This is the realist you’ll ever see us. Come hang out and talk Telltale with us. We wanna know your thoughts! Leave us comments!
Talking Telltale is a weekly Podcast/Videocast. Coming soon to iTunes!
Before the announcement that a heavily narrative focussed Walking Dead video game was announced in 2012, Telltale games was a development studio that not particularly well known. Despite putting out other similar properties with Back to the Future: The Game and Jurassic Park: The Game, the products were largely met with a very mixed and ultimately tepid response from the public. The rampant acclaim and runaway success reached with The Walking Dead launched the developer into one of the most anticipated and favourable studios out there with one revolutionary product.
I think the walking dead story telling is amazing. I really love the games and think that they bring the respect of gaming story telling up in the world of entertainment in general :)
The trophy list for The Walking Dead: Season 2 on the PS4 has been revealed and unfortunately there is no platinum trophy. In total there are 40 trophies including 1 Gold, 24 Silver and 15 Bronze. The Walking Dead S2 is expected to arrive on next-gen systems later on this month at both retail and digitally.
A full list of trophies is available below: (WARNING!!! POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!!)
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Well guess a man will only get for Ps4 now (was going to get for both and plat both so now dev will get less support). Honestly why not have a plat? Your first game had one and it was impossible to miss so it can't be any easier. The Wolf among us for both then and TWD season 1 PS4. Well that's still 3 platinums to add to a man's collection. A man still supports the dev but this makes zero sense. Hopefully BF gets them both down to $20 or lower.
To be clear a man doesn't base any purchases on trophies. A man was going to wait for the PS4 versions of all the games regardless but was going to get the PS3 version as well before re-selling it just to get the plat for little to no cost (after resale cost was subtracted). A man only bothers to platinum a game if he likes it and never does annoying trophies like Resistance 2 10,000 kills despite that being the only one that he didn't have because if they're not fun why go for em?

Dear Game Developers,
Platinum Trophies sells games. Gamers check trophy Lists before they buy a game. An easy or "Onlineless" trophy list could be the tiebreaker if they can afford only one game. Trust me it does. Doesn't make much sense but well.....it's gamers of today. They need to be rewarded. Be it a 100 "Like" on their selfies, 100 "retweets" or 100 other gamers watching them play a game on Twitch.
Give them their Platinum Trophies.
real gamers don't care about trophies only these fake gamers do. a real gamer plays a game for fun not to get trophies
It's always nice to have trophies. Especially the platinum.
Wish starcraft had trophies and be released on ps4 or x1. I'll play it all day everyday.
You can care a little, not at all or a lot about trophies and it doesn't affect your status as a gamer at all.
Some people enjoy hunting for trophies. You don't. That doesn't make you better than them nor does hunting for trophies make them better than you. So please ;p
There's been many a game I've been on the fence about, about because of their stupid online trophies or lack of platinum trophy I haven't bothered.
You guys know a game can be fun regardless of whether it's trophies are difficult to get, right? Just because you can't get them all the way you like to play doesn't mean it's not worthy of purchase.
I was under the impression it was Sony that determined whether a game could include a platinum trophy.
A true scots man tries to get every platinum that he can get and I know..because I am one!.
