How Was The Military Overrun?

I think this is an interesting topic, we never get a really big picture on how the military got overrun. The problem is if anybody dies they become a walker despite being bitten it makes it impossible to keep under control, people die everyday. Areas in lockdown would mean some people may die within meaning it could spread from the inside of protected areas. The army most likely would run out of ammo, we are not just talking about a couple of waves of zombies it would be wave after wave due to the zombies being attracted by noise. In the end they would just be outrrun and the soldiers would be outnumbered short term I think they would do well but overtime the supply issues would be clear.

The Walking Dead: The Game - Episode 2 "Starving for Help" Trailer

As we saw episode 1 "A New Day" was a huge success in terms of telling a story, being engaging and most important fun! Episode 2 seems to form an interesting plot point which would be a big problem if something like this happened in real life. How would you keep a good amount of food if you are unprepared for an event like this? We see this episode includes conflict between some other group of people The Walking Dead has always been known for big conflicts take The Governor for example it shows that even in a world where humanity is dying bad people still roam the world.

I can't wait to see the options we get, can we pick who we may feed the choclate bar to? Will we have to decide on some persons fate again? I really hope so.

Below is the trailer for people who either have not finished the first episode or needs brought up to speed on what I am talking about.

The Walking Dead Game: Episode 1 A New Day Review

This game I did not have high hopes for Telltale games in the past have made some pretty bad games, boy was I wrong this game blew me away. We should make two things clear here from the start: this is based primarily on the comics not the TV series, and features none of the same actors. It's also not a standard retail release, but a series of five episodic games which will come out monthly I believe. The first episode I finished in 2 - 3 hours since I played on the xbox it was 400 Microsoft points which I believe is about £3.50 or around $5 which to be honest you can pay a lot more to go see a film which may not even be good. The game also has multiple options which can change how the game plays slightly, not much though but we have been told they have massive effects in later episodes.

The Jurassic Park game released late last year was bad for the reason that it played out like a film with very little  interactivity for players. The Walking Dead game solves these problems,  it manages a much better balance between spectacle, storytelling, and puzzle-solving.

The focus of the game is a character called Lee Everett who's dark past is hinted at you progress. He isn't necessarily a bad person though and takes considerable effort to protect his child sidekick Clementine who he finds in a treehouse after she hid from her once babysitter. Clemintine is a perfect character I found myself ending up doing whatever it took to make sure she kept safe.

The main attraction of this game isn't the zombie killing, its the dialogue and character interactions that are the meat of the game. It was tough to decide with who I should side with at times and to make it even harder you are timed sometimes to pick, I loved this it was perfect as if it was real decisions would have to be made quick and there's no going back on your choices.

Interestingly, whatever choices you make don't affect the story very much but they do completely change the other characters' attitude towards you. This is important as I ended up making some very tough decisions which in turn made a certain character not think much of me and began to dislike me, this may affect me in future episodes its genius!

I love the art style as it resembles the comic in a way, fans of only the TV show may be put off by this which may be a shame. In places the flow of cutscenes can be a bit poor with some freezing screens for a couple seconds which sometimes took me out of the mood but nothing to serious to worry about.

I hope Telltale can keep up the quality in future episodes they do  have a tendency to vary wildly in quality from episode to episode but this first outing is the best thing they've done for years.

Verdict: It's a lot more wordy than you might expect from a survival horror, but it is the best zombie game since Left 4 Dead 2.  Excellent dialogue and voice acting, but art is not likely to appeal to everyone.

Score: A solid 9/10 AMAZING!

The Walking Dead Review Issue 96: A Larger World Conclusion

In defense of Gregory, Rick has killed Ethan, a member of the Hilltop community who was sent by the mysterious Negan in order to save his girlfriend (or possibly wife). After a tense confrontation calms down, Jesus takes Rick’s group to the mansion in the center of town and tells them about Negan. This roaming madman demands half of everything the Hilltop produces in the way of supplies. Carl steps up and says if they were to kill Negan and his men, why not just give Rick’s people half of what they produce. Rick sweetens the deal by saying they wouldn’t even need that much. This gets Jesus thinking, and gives Rick the chance to strike a deal with the people of the Hilltop. Now all Rick has to do is convince the battle-hardened Andrea and Michonne that this plan is the way toward a future that would be the return of civilization.

This particular issue from Robert Kirkman really sneaks up on you. It’s a conclusion to a story, but instead of the usual big finale that leaves the group obviously changed from what they were before, there’s almost a sense of hope… But what gives that hope a bite is that it could come with a serious cost. Rick is completely won over by the operation of the Hilltop. He and Glenn seem to view the place as almost a paradise or an oasis in the vast wasteland. Rick sees the place as the way of the future. These people live together peacefully and happily (aside from the menace of Negan). They produce massive amounts of food and supplies and seemed to have built a fairly serious life.
By the end of the issue, we see exactly how much each character has changed. Glenn is tired of living in fear. He wants a good life for Maggie, Sophia, and himself. He sees the Hilltop as a place where he could grow old and contented. Michonne, who’s never exactly been warm and fuzzy, sees the place as a terrifying cult-like compound led by a man who seemingly holds the place in a sway through his charisma. Andrea believes the place is weak and beneath them and can’t believe that Rick would sacrifice any of their people to protect them from someone that they allowed to take from the Hilltop.

Rick, in an effective monologue gives his side of the story. In a parallel to how the television series concluded its second season, Rick finally tells them how he’s felt being their leader. He didn’t ask for it, he can barely do it without getting people killed or losing loved ones. Here, at the Hilltop, he sees this as the beginning of a new civilization. A place where repopulation can begin.
Ultimately, the four points of view of the Hilltop actually parallel exactly four facets of how Rick runs his group. People feel safe around Rick. They follow him blindly. They are often exposed and, through that exposure, they are weakened. The goal from the very beginning was to find safety and some sort of modicum of a life. All this sneaks into this issue and leads to a rousing finish that sets up the next phase of this series, but what really stuck out for me was Rick’s big plan for the people of the Hilltop. He wants to take their some 200 people and turn them into an army against marauders and walkers to build that safe world.

It’s particularly interesting to see where we’re heading. Lots of talk has started to turn toward issue #100 and promises of surprises and shocks. And what of this Negan? Is he truly as bad as he seems or could there be more to his story? I can hardly wait to find out what happens next! This issue helped build up to this 100th issue and I hope it delivers something huge only time can tell thanks for reading!

Issue gets 8.5/10

Jon Bernthal's Idea For Shanes Death

Watch this video and decide if you think this ending was better for Shane than the one they used.

I think that this idea was actually better than the one they went with, why? I think it's a better send off due to the fact it gives a greater story that infact Shane didn't want to kill Rick afterall and helps give the idea Shane isn't just a bad guy but wanted what was best for everyone.

What I Want To See From Season 3

As you may know I can not wait for season 3, this season I believe will be some the best stuff we have seen. The whole Governor storyline was the highlight from the comics and I believe it will do the same for the show, I really want to see the story get more intense episode by episode and have some real amazing moments.

We need zombies! loads of them and as we have heard we are going to be expecting this. Many episodes in season 2 did lack zombies and many viewers did not enjoy the show as much because of it, in my opinion I did'nt mind it as I loved some of the time we got to see more of the characters and I think it helped us care for them more and not want them to die.

I hope that Michonne will do a good job in the show considering how much of an amazing character she is in the comics as she is just so interesting and I hope they picked the right actor for her part, I dont feel this is a worry because everyone cast in the show so far has been perfect.

I hope to see big twists in the story to help keep the show entertaining as to anybody that has read the comic will have a less exciting expirience if they know exactly what will happen. I wish to see scenes that make me think "Wow I did not expect that"

Ricks group is quite small now considering all the deaths we have had so I really want more characters to be introduced to his group, I dont just want Michonne (even though she will be awesome) I want maybe some prisoners to be found within the prison maybe.

Last but not least I want to see Lori die for the love of god, she is just so hated I do not know anybody that likes her. So we can hope and pray

My Top 5 All Time Favourite Characters From The Walking Dead (T.V Show Does Contain Spoilers)

5. Dale

Dale was such a great character as he is just so interesting, the story of how he is the last in the group who seems to off maintained his humanity and still believes in what is right. He added to many of the great scenes and stories, most often in season 2 my favourite by far was his role as the guy who knows what kind of guy Shane is. The death though I believe was not well done as he had so much that could be done with his character. Due to him wanting to leave this felt lie a really cheap death and the worst scene I would believe in The Walking Dead no build up to the death.
4. Andrea

Andrea I do admit I hated at first for obvious reasons such as shooting Daryl and almost killing him, but as season 2 goes on I really started to love Andrea. for 2 reasons, she became such an interesting character and the other reason was down to her turning into a badass. I really loved her in the final episode of season 2 with her many awesome zombie kills! I hope she can continue to improve and she may even move up in the list!
3.Daryl

Daryl I do not believe is not in anybody's top 5, he's such a great character considering he is not featured in the comic books. I just really like the way his character has evolved over the 2 seasons we have had so far and I cross my fingers that he never dies! I think it will be really interesting how he reacts to his brother returning which I believe we will see in season 3.

2. Rick

Rick the main "good guy" of The Walking Dead he's got a really good story behind him having a power struggle in the group, people doubting his leadership of the group. I loved his story also of his wifes baby maybe not even being his. I can't wait for him to become much more heartless ( A bit like Shane became I suppose) I think the way his character evolved in the character was amazing I hope the show can do the same.




 1. Shane

 Shane by far is my favourite, he is a outstanding edition to show considering his short time in the comic I'm glad they decided to include him in the show. The actor Jon Bernthal could not of done a better job and was perfect for the role! His character was interesting due to his development during his time on the show until becoming nothing but a cold blooded survivor who wants nothing but want Lori and Carl as his own instead of Rick. I believe his death helped Rick get across and also helped evolve his character which we will see in the 3rd season.


This list will most likely change in season 3 I can see Michonne getting on the list feel free to comment on your favourites and share thanks again!
