    I do not regret my time with A New Frontier, but the emotional core at the center of the series seems rotten. There are seeds of greatness here, but A New Frontier never gave them the necessary time to grow. The Walking Dead started as a story about people. It was about a convict looking to redeem himself and a child growing up in an unfair world. A New Frontier chases after these figures but no matter how hard it runs, it always remains firmly in their shadows.

It's like they outsourced the story to the Telemundo's writing room so you get this horrible mind-numbing Spanish soap with absolutely no redeeming qualities. Nothing in the ending is resolved and you're hit with an after credits scene that says "Clementine's story will continue..." further proving they had absolutely no idea what to do with this season. GET THE REAL ENDING IN THE DLC :)… Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. The ending for the season was completely amazing. You feel in the skin the consequence of the choices you made, and you can certainly feel the death of the characters as if you were inside the game. For instance, I really liked Gabe and David, they were characters that had a lot of feelings inside them.… Full Review »
