Have you seen the Walking Dead game on xbox? Its a decision game. Pretty neat. Could make some cool scenarios for Rot World.
Thoughts?
Ideas??

There are two different Walking Dead board games -- one with illustrations from the graphic novels and the other with pictures from the TV series -- and I'm wondering if parts of either might be useful for a Walking Dead scenario. (I'm not sure why there are two, but the pictures on the box look very different. One is a rectangle with squares where you go around like Monoploy and the other is a hexmap of the Atlanda area.)

Im talking about the Xbox games. There are two now. One is a decision based game, the other a FPS. The decision game is neat, but there are fixed endings for everything, so your choices dont really matter. Thats a big let down.

I saw that you were talking about the xbox game, but I don't play video games and nothing to directly add to that. On the other hand, I had seen the board games and thought that since they were "Walking Dead" they might fit in this thread rather than a new one.

I hate it when computer games are too linear, so it's a shame to hear that the Walking Dead one has pre-determined endings. (While I don't play, I like to watch my son play video games. Sort of like watching a movie. ;) )
