    The Wolf Among Us on the PS4 is a magnificent re-release that fans should enjoy. If you haven’t played it yet then add the game to your “to-play” list immediately.

    The first and last episodes remain some of Telltale’s finest work, helping anchor a dark, involving narrative. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s a chain- smoking, bourbon-drinking pig. What more do you want? [January 2015, p79]

    If you missed out on The Wolf Among Us, now is a good time to enjoy the entertaining fairy tale crime story in all its glory, and on PlayStation 4 technically better than on the old systems.

    Despite some niggling concerns, The Wolf Among Us is well worth the budget price attached to both digital and physical versions.

    It's a triumph of tight plotting, wild imagination, and sure-handed direction. It's a game that never flinches in taking its story and its chain-smoking protagonist everywhere it can.

    This is still a great game, but it’s not the polished up final product that you may have been hoping for.

I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now I hardly play any. Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I play on every platform but prefer PlayStation.

    This was my first Telltale game that I played and just recently replayed it a week ago. Love this fairy tale murder mystery. I want more of it.    … Expand

That doesn't sound that great I thought (I was wrong) , but I after I started playing it and was introduced to the characters and the world and how they interact with each other ,I was hooked. Make sure to play this game for a very enjoyable experience that you might now be expecting but once you start playing it you won't be able to stop and will enjoy every second of it.… Expand

If you love The Walking Dead you'll probably like this too. That being said, it's a lot harder to fall in love with these characters then it is in the walking dead. In place of that there's a bit of a whodunnnit story that makes you think. The same faults still exist though: your choices don't really matter that much. The story will always unfold in the same way and also the ending will be about the same no matter what. The differences are very very limited. The choices you make will impact your own emotional envolvement I think, but that's entirely up to you.… Expand
