Game of Thrones' PS4, PS3 Launch Trailer Acts All Dramatic

Sitting pretty

by Sammy Barker Mon 1st Dec 2014

Alright, we’ve exhausted our entire knowledge of the Game of Thrones franchise in previous articles, so you’re just going to have to excuse our ignorance in this one. Telltale Games has released a launch trailer for Episode 1: Iron from Ice, and it features a few famous faces – and voices to boot. We’re just pleased that, new property or not, the developer’s still recycling that ‘shifty’ reaction animation. You know the one...

I have a feeling this is going to be TellTale's finest work and that is saying alot.

I dunno, man....They hit absolute gold with The Walking Dead. Pure human emotion....and that is key to it. I don't think that can be replicated in GoT.
Game-wise, though, i think it easily could be their best....the choice and consequence system would really suit GoT....but i don't think i would be as engrossed in it as much as TWD.

To be fair I'm a huge GOT fan so I'm a bit bias.

My worry is that they're all starting to look the same. The facial animations are literally the same in this as TWD and TWAU... Immersion breaker!

Awful, and what facial expressions? Take a look at Beowulf the movie, that's what this should look like.

Seems interesting and will probably be a more engrossing story then TWD ones.

@Bad-MuthaAdebis That movie doesn't look good now though.

Being a huge fan Im quite interested, but unsold yet, on this. Ive never played any of thier other games before so its all new to me. Not much on serials so Ill wait until its all out and read the reviews and decide then.

Thanks again for PS3 in the title, I actually thought this was a PS4 exclusive, guess 2015 hasnt moved on to this gen completely yet.
