Thanks for putting up a thread, Grimmy. I didn't realize it finally got a release date! I kept checking and then just gave up. And it's today! Very cool. I'll play it this weekend.

Those are some good review scores.

From IGN's conclusion:
"Telltale has once again delivered a well-written adventure, this time with an added dose of stylish noir presentation. Faith begins Sheriff Bigby's adventure with an introduction that’s funny, brutal, and mysterious in the best possible ways. If this inaugural episode of The Wolf Among Us is any indication of the rest of the season, then Telltale's latest adventure game is set to provide an adventure every bit as memorable as Lee and Clementine's."
 
No problem. Feel free to add to it. Yeah, I'm looking forward to playing this. Loved 'The Walking Dead'.
 
Probably about to download the trial for this, really enjoyed TWD so I'm hoping I like this too.
 
Got it and played a few hours. I am enjoying the story so far.
 
Save $5 if you buy episodes 2 through 5 in a season pass. I'll probably do that, if I like the first episode, which I'm pretty sure I will. Just finished downloading it.
 
I like it so far. My only gripe has been framerate hitches. At one point, the game got stuck for about 10 seconds. I was ready to reboot when it finally got moving again. At a couple other points, the framerate has stuttered pretty badly.

Otherwise, though, it's been very enjoyable. No big drama or difficult choices so far, but we're just getting started. It's an interesting universe, all your childhood fairy tales come to life, but in twisted versions. I suspect that this will not be as big a hit as Walking Dead was -- that had zombies, which gamers love, but this has Snow White and Mr. Toad. I like it, though.
 
Did you complete the episode?

Poor Snow White didn't deserve to be murdered. :txbmad::sad:

How do you use spoiler tags?

Not yet. I think I'm about halfway through.

As for spoiler tags, I don't know. You can do it the old fashioned way:

[spoiler ] blah blah blah [ /spoiler] without the spaces. If there is a new shortcut, I don't know it.

edit: nm, I see you got it.
 
Ok, don't see my spoiler because it's about the end of the episode. Lol
 
Finished the first episode. I enjoyed it. I suppose it's too early to say for sure, but I suspect I won't be as emotionally hooked by this as I was by The Walking Dead, just because of the different styles and settings.

Keep meaning to pick this up, been a fan of the comic since issue 1. If only I had been here earlier. Enjoy Don't. Let me know how it is.
 
I'm hoping for a price drop in a few weeks. Loved The Walking Dead and will pick this up on Steam soon.
 
Episode 2 is coming the first week in February.


"Kevin from Telltale here! Funny that this came up today, as we were planning the announcement of Ep 2, but… no time like the present!

Ep 2 should be available the first week of February. We are working hard with all of our partners (Xbox, PlayStation, Steam, Apple) to coordinate everything, but we’re confident enough to announce that here. The episode is looking really good (as is the rest of the season!). We are very concerned about the long delay for this episode, but this is one of those occasions where several things conspired against us (not to mention the additional delays due to the holidays). I won't dive into the details, but it’s been an unusual and specific set of circumstances and we do not anticipate it happening again as we go forward with the rest of the season.

So there you have it. First week of February!"

Think I will just wait until all episodes of a season (if they're doing that) are complete. Hell I think I've only played one episode of Walking Dead. Damn I need to find time to play that game.
 
February cant come fast enough ! Just finished episode 1 and so far it is pretty good and I found the pacing to be much better than Walking Dead S1
 
Today is the last day for the Playstation 14 for '14 sale and I see that The Wolf Among Us season pass is on sale for $13.49 so does that mean I can download all the episodes as they come out without paying anything extra?

Still contemplating whether I should get it.

Yes you will get all the episodes for that one price.
 
Gotta be honest,I don't dig it. Beauty from Beauty and The Beast a prostitute,the Big Bad Wolf a werewolf,Mr Toad a deadbeat dad and...Ichabot Crane?! Oh,C'mon he isn't even from a f***ing fairy tale. Why don't they include f***ing Don Quijote while they're at it!

I've just about f***ing had it with all these grim n' gritty modernizations of classic fairy tales. All these bulls*** movies,TV series and videogames are distorting classic fables for future generations. These tales,from Aesop's to modern days are supposed to contain moral lessons (and a few cautionary messages) and they are being scrambled and diluded. and the worst part, the target demographic (white middle class Christian Americans) are eating that s*** up with a spoon.
