Big fan of the Walking Dead comics, not so much the AMC show, but that is because I don't like it when established characters are reinvented in a new medium.
This is why I liked The Walking Dead game on Xbox arcade. It isn't so much a game as an interactive comic...almost a choose your own adventure. It is set in the same area as the original comic and it looks more like an animated comic (a great one at that) than a video game. Not only does it not feel like a new medium, but the characters are not simply rehashed or "re-imagined" from the original. Well, there is some limited cross-over from the original comics, but it doesn't detract from either work.

If you like The Walking Dead at all, I think you'll like this game.
