The Walking Dead Episode One Now Free On XBLA And PSN

If you've not yet played Telltale Games' The Walking Dead, now is a good time to try it out. The first episode of the five-part title is now free on Xbox Live (worldwide) and PlayStation Network (North America).

Telltale has also announced that the season pass, which delivers all five episodes, has now been reduced to $14.99 on the PlayStation Network. Telltale is readying The Wolf Among Us, based on Bill Willingham's Fables comic books, and season two of The Walking Dead.

Our Take
As a fan of point-and-click adventures and The Walking Dead source material, Telltale's work was a thrill for me to play through. I would also recommend the 400 Days DLC, as it will bridge the two seasons (and tells five interesting stories about brand new characters).
