After just releasing Episode 1 of The Walking Dead video game free on the iTunes App Store, Telltale Games has released the episode for free on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for a limited time. When the episode first came out, it was selling for 400 Microsoft points, so this is a good chance to pick it up if you were on the fence about it.
"Episode one of a five-part game series set in the same universe as Robert Kirkman’s award-winning series. Play as Lee Everett, a convicted criminal, who has been given a second chance at life in a world devastated by the undead. Experience events, meet people and visit locations that foreshadow the story of Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes. A tailored game experience – actions, choices and decisions you make will affect how your story plays out across the entire series. Additional episodes available as downloadable content. "
Episode One Details: The critically acclaimed debut episode of The Walking Dead begins at the outset of the undead apocalypse. Lee Everett awakes into a world collapsing into anarchy as society fails to deal with the undead plague. Seeking refuge, he stumbles upon Clementine, an eight year old girl whose parents are missing.
