Telltale does it again
585264
As a big fan of Telltale games, I have to say, this one might be my favorite by them so far.
When it came out for the PS3, I didn't play it, as I hadn't played any borderlands games, and didn't even realize that this one was different. I discovered recently that it was telltale, and as a fan of the walking dead and wolf among us, I decided I should play it, and had great timing since I saw it was being released this month on PS4.
Pre-ordered it, it arrived on the release day, and I LOVE this game. The story is great, the characters are great. It's violent and hilarious. Just a very well made game, and as always, telltales art/animation style is stunning.

Tales from the Borderlands was my very first Telltale game. Might I say that I enjoyed every last second of this mighty game.

I enjoyed the overall storyline of the game, Having the original cast and some of the supporting cast do their own voice work adds to the realism and enjoyability of playing it. The only drawback,at times,is the lack of being able to actively control where the camera takes you. Otherwise,the entire game plays out like a finely crafted storyline arc that for TRUE X Files fans,won't disappoint!

Bought this when Amazon did a $12 sale on this game code for the Mac/PC systems. It's worth it because it normally costs $24 for the code or the game on TellTale anyway.

I truly enjoyed this game! I haven't been this *cough* addicted *cough* to a game in years. I ended up staying up an extra two hours late at night just to get through episode three and four because i just had to know what happens next and get through the story. I love the choices they provide, the type of characters you come across and the story arcs for each episode.

It's not 100% zombie oriented in certain episodes, but you do come across zombies. Episode two for example is more about the characters than the zombies as a forefront in the game. You do however come across more twist and turns in that episode.

I do like the option of making the mouse more sensitive when you use a Macbook Pro because it allows you to move faster in fighting off zombies and making quicker choices in the game. I died more when I left the mouse less sensitive on my laptop.

Also to back out, double tap the bottom right corner of your Macbook Pro for your character in the game. Took me a while to figure it out, but you have to make sure the fingers are slightly spread apart and click at the same time on the scroll pad of the 2012 and newer Macbook Pros.

Overall, it's worth playing more so if you are a fan of the comics and the show. Another reason to get the game? They are putting out a second season and one of the rumors about it is they are going to figure out HOW to integrate season one choices to affect season two game play! Meaning whatever you decided in season one plays on over to season two! Now wouldn't that be awesome!?

I'm baffled at how this game is so overly criticized and even mocked.  As a sequel to the story in the previous game, they did a great job on it.  The story continues to be intriguing. The gameplay is unusual in that you have all of the power that you had at the end of the first game.  Thus the game is not challenging. But I consider this a bold move on the game designers part,  because surely they knew it would draw criticism. stop overanalyzing it and just take the game for what it is, as a continuation of the story and it does so well.  My only criticism is that they changed some things, just for the sake of changing them so as not to look too much like the first game, and those things were perfect how they were, ands should not have been changed.  But the game gets 5 stars for following-up the first game perfectly.

Haven't finished the game yet, but I'm hooked. It's great fun for any fan of the Tales series. The two storyline thing is kinda interesting, but really the game doesn't change all that much between the 2 as far as I can tell. Otherwise, this is a title that stays true to the roots of the series and is great fun.

Great game, hope to see another witcher game soon. And can't wait for the expansion packs, new feel in this game compared to the other 2 witcher games, and I like it. Game has a great story too it and it's a pretty long one too.

I am an avid fan of the inFamous series and I can say that this game is by far my favorite!

STORY:  The story in this game is as fresh to the series as it is engaging.  I was afraid of what they were going to do with it as I felt inFamous 2 was a bit lackluster. The fact that they use a real city (Seattle) as the setting was wonderful. Sometimes introducing new characters into a series is a big risk but Sucker Punch pulled it off beautifully with Second Son.  There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you engaged and not feel like you are rehashing the story of the first two.  5 Stars

GAMEPLAY: I was very refreshing to have a variety of powers not seen in the other two installments. The controls never felt clunky and you always feel like you have total control of Delsin.  The one draw back is the collectibles and side quests.  As with most sandbox games, these get a bit tedious and can become a bit of a grind. 4.5 Stars

VOICE ACTING: Incredible!  Like some other reviewers, I immediately missed Cole.  But as the story progressed, you could definitely feel the emotion and each actor fit the game character perfectly.  5 Stars

GRAPHICS:  Very good! The game design and character modelling was done wonderfully.  Advertised as a "next gen" game on release....certainly doesn't disappoint.  5 Stars

SOUNDTRACK: Loved the music to this game.  It was very different from anything I had heard previously and it fit the game wonderfully. 5 Stars

REPLAY:  Played it back to back.  Massive replay-ability as it maintains the "good" and "evil" plot lines. 5 Stars

As I stated above, this game exceeded every expectation I had for it.

Fun, entertaining game. As with most episodic Telltale games, it is on the short side. I'd say the chapters took me about an hour and a half each, which equals 7.5 hours of gameplay.

Great gameplay, open world, great theme, and great mechanics.

It is worth it at full $60.

Only downside is the story is kind of short but it changes slightly the more times you play it over. I hope they will add dlc in future

Great game. It has held up well in a market that favors current generation games. The graphics aren't great, in some respects, but they aren't awful either. Strong story lines and multi-facetted characters make for a terrific experience. If I'm not the last one to play this, I highly recommend it. ;)

I've never seen a game series redeem itself quite like this one. This just proves that Square Enix listens to their customers. They pretty much fixed everything that was wrong with the old game and fixed it in this one. Not to mention the storyline is twice as deep and dynamic as the first while still making sense and actually becoming plausible and credible. Get this game its one of the best games of the year and I couldn't put it down for a long time. But beware it has an ending that will make you cry. *No Spoilers*

Really makes the fans of the Batman animated series really happy. They took this game and made it into a game, this is in my opinion worthy of being one of the games of the year. It has a great storyline and development and of course a great set of characters. Bringing back the original voices of Joker and Batman from the 90s animated series was a great move. My only dissappointment was I wish the game was a little longer, but it was in depth and had you thinking at all times. I am looking forward to the sequel and hope it delivers the same action and suspense as this game did.

My friends and enjoy playing this game not only because of the storytelling elements of the game, and not even because of the wonderful cast of characters, the weird array of actions, the imaginative settings or the endings to choose from. The interesting part of this game is the ability for the game to drawl an audience (who doesn't enjoy listening to story) and how the players interact with people outside of the game. To win the game, you must tell the best story with the element provided and have not only the other players agree, but others. A simple game that is brilliant.

I actually enjoyed this game more than the first modern warefare. The new story is great and it continues from where MW had left off. I dig the story because it takes war and brings it to our country and to our most "cherished" places. What really got me hooked is the online play. There are a bunch of new weapons and perks that can be used and unlocked, like ninja: makes you invisible to the heart beat sensor. You can call in a harrier, pavelow, and a C130 that you get to control.  What I didn't like about it was a couple guns like the "old school" shot gun that has range like a sniper rifle. Leveling is quick and there are about 13 new maps to play on. Over all I dig this game.

Great game. I love all "tale-of" games and this one was great!
