    This game is a great example of how pure story telling and deep decision making can make a extremely enjoyable game. It's a nice break from Run and Gun shooters and hack n slash games that have came out in the past weeks. Season 2 picks up after the first and follows Clementine, the young girl Lee protected in season 1. Playing as Clem gives you a different perspective on the world andThis game is a great example of how pure story telling and deep decision making can make a extremely enjoyable game. It's a nice break from Run and Gun shooters and hack n slash games that have came out in the past weeks. Season 2 picks up after the first and follows Clementine, the young girl Lee protected in season 1. Playing as Clem gives you a different perspective on the world and makes you do things you never would before. Just like all Telltale games your decisions shape the story/world, Not as much as I would like but still enough to get me to play it a second time. A lot of the choices your forced to make in the story will make you weight your relationship with the characters and sometimes do things you regret. This game is also set in the same world as the TV so you will see some of the same characters and themes.
    If you have read the books,Watched the TV show or played season 1
    you need owe it to yourself to play this phenomenal series.    … Expand

    Like the first season, the second season is a great example of how to develop complex and rich human interactions in a videogame.

In most of games I know, the gameplay consists in shooting and running, and social interaction just consists in watching cutscenes or making trivial decisions. However, in TWD, you are continuously taken to the limit, making hard decisions regarding who you should support or who will survive. You develop complex emotions towards characters, and it's great to see a script that doesn't deal with you like a kid who has to be told who are the good guy and the bad guy, this is up to you. Regarding the technical part, in my PS3 I saw much less image stuttering as I saw the first season, which is great (actually, I only saw it in the initial reminders of previous episodes, which are not critical parts). The only thing a miss in the second season is a little bit more of exploration and non-trivial puzzles. In the second season, exploration times are shorter, so solving them by pointing at all available interactive spots is even easier than in the first season. Maybe developers thought hard puzzles would break too much the pace for some kinds of gamers, and it's a respectable choice, but I miss some old-school point and click feeling. On the other hand, season two has something season one didn't: multiple endings. And in a game which wants to make you feel that choices do matter, multiple endings are a must. Well done, Telltale.… Expand

    As a Walking Dead fan, this game is a must-have! Great story, great action, and environment! The only problem with this game is the lag at the beginning of most scenes.

    I can't decide if this one is better than Season 1 or not! Telltale delivers a season just as fantastic as the last. One thing I noticed were a few bad framerate drops, and how some decisions don't make much of a distance long-term. Apart from that, I can't wait for a third season!

    Not as masterful as the first season by amazing none-the-less. Full of thought provoking decisions and consequences.
    I found it harder this time round having sympathy for many of the characters, the majority are less likeable than the ones from season one.
    A lot of the decisions were easier to make for this reason. The presentation is the same as season one and everything works well.    Not as masterful as the first season by amazing none-the-less. Full of thought provoking decisions and consequences.

    There were a few jaw-dropping moments, especially one in the final episode which hit me out of the ball park. Its just pure interactive-story telling at its finest.

    Provided that you are familiar in regards to how Telltale Games run, this is a phenomenal continuation in a much more dark and bleak direction. I love how the game does its best to AVOID the television series/comics and does its own thing. Really good story!

    If you liked the first season, you will like this one too. The Walking Dead by Telltale Games is one of the best stories I have experienced in video games and season two continues in that direction.

    This second season allows you to walk along Clementine in her journey to grow up and survive, with the same identity of the first season. Although in general terms it's plot is not as deep, the journey is overall absolutely worthy. More than just a recommendable interactive adventure.

    The Walking Dead: Season 2 - despite being not as brilliant as Season 1 - offers an equally good and moving story. Clementine is now the main character and the developer chose to show her maturing over the course of the game, which was a great decision. The news season is a perfect interactive movie - if a very limited gameplay has put you off before, it most certainly will do it again. Of course, fans of The Walking Dead should definitely play the sequel.
