Telltale Games bringing 'The Walking Dead' to the OUYA this winter
It's safe to say The Walking Dead game has had a pretty successful term on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 -- still, there's always a chance to grow beyond the more traditional consoles. With that in mind, Telltale Games announced today its plans to bring the zombie-heavy gaming series to the OUYA later this year. The game studio behind the title doesn't go beyond saying it'll be "coming this winter." However, it did say the release will include The Walking Dead: Season One along with the 400 Days DLC. The second season, meanwhile, is said to be in the works and due to follow at some point in the future. Owners of the tiny, Android-based box will be able to play the first episode at no cost, which should help decide if they want to carry on with the rest of the story or, you know, keep playing You Don't know Jack.

The Walking Dead 400 Days review: Take five
The most terrifying thing about The Walking Dead "400 Days" DLC isn't the shuffling, blood-soaked zombies desperate for your flesh, nor is it the reminder that gas used to cost $1.98 – it's the characters themselves. The ones you play as and the ones they interact with, those whose relationships you can shatter with one errant press of a button, an itchy dialogue finger or shaky gunshots. It's the words that Telltale forces into your mouth and the actions that you can't stop. Living people who love, hate, kill and conquer are the most horrifying thing in The Walking Dead because, chances are, they won't be living for long – and 400 Days stars five of them.%Gallery-191351%
The Walking Dead: 400 Days trailer tells new tales from the zombie apocalypse
Five harrowing tales of post-apocalyptic survival collide in 400 Days, a new episode in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead series premiering this week on iOS, PC, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade. Choices made in previous episodes will carry over into 400 Days, and Telltale revealed that starring characters – the ones who survive, anyway – may appear in The Walking Dead's upcoming second season.
The Walking Dead '400 Days' DLC due this week
A new episode in Telltale's The Walking Dead series, dubbed "400 Days," will be available on Xbox Live Arcade, PSN, PC, Mac and iOS this week for $5. IGN says to expect it on PSN in North America this Tuesday, on Steam and the Telltale store on Wednesday, iOS on Thursday and in the Xbox Live Marketplace worldwide on Friday. 400 Days contains five different story threads, connected in some way through a crucial truck stop. Decisions from the Walking Dead's first season will carry over into the DLC, Telltale has confirmed.
The Walking Dead 400 Days: Dissecting one of its stories at E3
The Walking Dead's next episode, 400 Days, stars five different characters in five separate stories of survival during the zombie apocalypse, all tied together by a geographical locale: A truck stop. These newcomers offer a fresh perspective on the events in season one of The Walking Dead, but overall, Telltale's tone hasn't changed much. "Aw, fuck." Those are the first words that Vince, one of the five characters highlighted in 400 Days, says. He spits the phrase into a dark alley as he searches for a spot to stash his gun, police sirens blaring from down the street. The player gets to decide where Vince throws the pistol – the garbage, his pants, the roof – but it doesn't appear to affect where he ends up: chained to the floor of a prison bus, with a heartbroken statutory rapist in front of him and a white-collar, former millionaire behind, all latched on the same line. %Gallery-191351%
The Walking Dead 400 Days due in July for $5, choices carry over
The new episode for Telltale's The Walking Dead, 400 Days, is set to launch in July for $5 on PC, Mac, XBLA, PSN and iOS. It'll hit Vita one month later, in August. That version will be bundled with the entire first season, for the first time ever on Vita. That bundle is a good deal for fans of continuity – the decisions players made in the first season of The Walking Dead will show up in 400 Days, and the choices in 400 Days will impact season two, Telltale marketing man Richard Iggo said at E3. Players can start 400 Days without having played any of season one, but Iggo warned against it for those who want the full effect. The DLC features five new characters in five separate stories, with a truck stop as their connective tissue. The truck stop is near events in season one of The Walking Dead, making it easy, geographically at least, to include previous player choices in 400 Days and beyond. "Who knows, some of the characters that you meet might end up in season two," Iggo teased.
