My vote is going to Firefly. That would be so awesome.
I remember looking over at my husband and asked, "So do you think that person is the killer, or do you think they are just going to be killed off?

Yeah it's a really minor gripe, and after playing through the episode twice now it's kind of forgotten, but when I started its not to be thrown off after reading 130+ issues of the comic I kind of developed a voice in my head for Bigby.
The abilities bothers me more, because I feel like they could have worked around it if they tried, but it's still understandable. Even the comic has times when shit goes down where you're like "wut." It's the nature of the beast.
I'm just thrilled at how well the world is so far realized and how much tighter a package it is over TWD. I really hope TWD season 2 continues to improve things.

Good theory. The only thing is...
The piece of fabric he found outside doesn't match with what that guy was wearing. I was thinking it may be from something that Faith was wearing, but it doesn't look like it is. One other weird thing about that redheaded guy is it almost looks like he's the driver of the cab that you leave Snow White in before heading into the bar. You're probably right though, it'll either be some non-descript character or it could even be the blatantly obviously choice of Blue Beard.

I'm playing the demo on the 360 version. Is there no way to turn off all the game hints (ie 'this will be useful later' and 'he'll remember this'? I find it really distracting and I could turn it off in Walking Dead.

Does this run better on any particular platform? I have 360, PS3, PC. I remember Walking Dead for PC having issues with save files, and the PS3 or 360 having screen tearing issues for Walking Dead. I am leaning towards the PS3 versions since the season pass is $19.99, while PC/360 seems to be $24.99. Any thoughts?
I thought that guy ith the huge nose said he wasn't in the country so it couldn't have been him. Something like that anyway, I don't think they would make him the murderer anyway.
Purchased. It's about time.
I went with the PS3 version because it's cheaper and dat easy plat.
But overall it's better on PC. The odd pausing, and performance issues from TWD are present in the console versions.

I thought Ichabod was talking about the mayor (I forgot his name). I know Ichabod is just filling in for the guy. I don't really think it's Blue Beard, but they may just be trying to throw you off by making him such an obvious choice. At this point I don't think the killer is any of the suspects we have to choose from. Another thing I thought was interesting is that I went to Lawrence first and of course Dee doesn't have blood on him this time, BUT he did have blood on his shirt collar when he shows up at the Trip Trap Bar. (My husband and I are playing our own game. He chose to go to Toad first, and he ended up ripping Grendel's arm off. I showed Grendel mercy and walked away.)
This is the best Telltale developed PC game yet. My girlfriend's four year old laptop plays it with a solid framerate with the highest settings. It's an i3 with integrated graphics. Previous Telltale games like BttF played poorly even with most settings on low. Even my desktop had issue with performance on the previous games. I'm glad they've finally got their engine running well, especially with what I think is their best looking game to date.

Sorry to ask this again but is the 360 version any better than the PS3 version ?
Unfortunately I don't have the option to play this on PC, I just played the demo on my PS3 Slim (which has no problem with any other game) and even though the game looks great it really runs like shit. The micro pauses are completely insufferable. The Walking Dead was also pretty bad in this regard but not nearly as bad as this...
So should I try downloading the 360 version or is it a waste of time ?

Usually Telltale releases 1 episode every month or so.

Duude. I just finally got around to watching Firefly recently, would be so rad.
Just finished episode 1 and super happy it's not just the Walking Dead guys that can make great episodes like this. I especially loved the aesthetic and music, just great stuff all around.
I was doing my second run through yesterday. (Speculation)
I'm thinking its that red head now as well. I had always assumed it was going to be a character that we haven't been introduced to yet but I really think he was the one driving the cab. I happened to notice it yesterday and said to myself "wow, how lazy, they just decided to reuse that random character model for the cabbie........oh wait, shit, that probably wasn't laziness"

Really ? No micro pauses every 5 seconds ?
I bought my PS3 last year and the other games that I am playing at the moment seem to be fine...
No, you can't. It's either all or nothing.
Just finished the first chapter, really impressive stuff. Good writing, cool characters(never read the comics). And the music, just wow! Had a difficult time with the QTE sequences though, often hard to see where to point the reticule resulting in
The
line had me laughing out loud! So good!
How long do we have to wait till the next episode?
Bigsby getting his ass kicked.

I feel that the greatness of the soundtrack really needs to be stressed. I mean, did any of us here really expect the soundtrack to be as good as it is, or even, for that matter, to be such an important aspect of the game? Telltale aren't traditionally known for their OSTs (despite some games having nice tracks now and again), but the music in TWAU really took me by surprise.

Fuck, I think you are right. Will the story of the five episodes be about the murderer and solving who is he? If this is the case, the entire experience will be ruined for me. Now I'm pissed off. I regret that I read your post.
Thought this game was great, awesome music, great art direction and the story and voice acting was top-frigging notch.
Was gonna buy the season pass, but does anyone know if both this game will be out on PS4, with hopefully the walking dead season 2... have tell tale got 2 teams now?
I personally didnt need to beat toad as some of you are referring to, I spotted all the lies and called in out on it.
On Faiths husbands dying breath, I asked who did this to you, he said faith... and on the mattress he left a letter which did seem like a suicide note saying he wish he never hurt her, so both are confusing messages, did he kill her, did she kill him, was it suicide or did he cheat on her etc? I think I messed up the story arc and labeled him as my primary suspect but also choose to let the woodsman go as he seemed convincing and didnt like the fact Dee had blood all over him and was clearly involved, not to mention kicked my ass in an alleyway. Great game.did everyone get the same ending??

It really would be a perfect medium since all of the actors are getting older.
I doubt all five will be about solving who the murderer is. I'm assuming you haven't read the comics? I won't say why that's important but if you did know the comics, you'd have an idea of the other thread forming that will be important in these episodes.
Fuck disney.
Im sure he knew the true nature of gren and holly. Nothing there made it seem like he didnt.
Speaking of which, is the game supposed to be set in the 80s or is it just stylized that way? The movie poster on the bus stop seems to suggest the former...

re-watched episode one on youtube after playing through myself.. i think
the killer may be Conan O'Brien aka the redhead..
Replayed it last night, and I noticed that there's definitely something strange going on in relation to

That's a lot of spoiler tagging.
the murders
Faith says
"These lips are sealed" twice, once in the Woodsman's apartment before you throw Woody out, and once down on the street just before the opening credits kick in. This phrase is then repeated by the Mirror when you ask him to find Faith, and he even draws attention to the fact that it's not his own choice of words, but rather the way it "has to be"
Also, I chose to
arrest the Woodsman last night just to see what happens (as opposed to arresting the much more suspicious Dee), and in the preview for Episode 2 it actually looks like Woody has some relevant info concerning Faith, something I didn't expect. I can't remember if there was a similar scene shown in the preview relating to Dee confessing
That's a lot of spoiler tagging.

I finished this yesterday and telltale's writers are so far ahead of other developers in the industry that it's almost embarrassing.
Too bad the gameplay sucks in all their recent games (don't tell me QTEs are fun)
Story > Gameplay
Loved the first episode, should I double dip on the TWD? I want to play more((
If you enjoyed this, you will enjoy TWD. As long as you haven't been spoilered by anything, I'd say go for it. My only advice is try to always set aside two hours for each episode so that you can do it in one sitting.
Very old European morality tales collected by (and in some cases written by) the Brothers Grimm in the 18th century, revived with the rise of Romanticism in the 19th century, popularized in America by Disney in the 20th century, and given new life by Bill Willingham's Libertarian fantasies as Fables in the 21st century.

I bought the entire collection during the Steam summer sale. Think it's going to be the next game I dive into.
I believe you need to arrest whoever you didn't arrest.
There are two separate ones depending on whether you
tear Grendel's arm off or walk away
go back to the bar
No I already played it on 360 (except for the DLC), I wondered if I should rebuy it (with 400 days) on steam.
