The Walking Dead Video Game (not to be confused with TellTale's episodic The Walking Dead Game) is a new first-person shooter based on the TV storyline of The Walking Dead (which was inspired by but diverges from Robert Kirkman's original comic book storyline).
Announced by Activision on July 6, 2012, The Walking Dead Video Game will star the Dixon brothers: Daryl Dixon and his brother Merle Dixon. The timeline of this game takes place before the beginning of the TV series, focusing on the two brothers' journey to Atlanta.
While the player's perspective will be in first-person, the
premise will be much like that of a survival horror game, where
resources like food and ammunition will be scarce and must be managed.
Gameplay will take advantage of the Dixon brothers' hunting abilities,
letting them choose between putting down the myriad undead, or Walkers as they are called, or using stealth to slip past them quietly.

released on April 7, 2009 in North America, April 9 in Europe and April 5
in Australia. The Godfather II is played from a third person perspective. It also contains some strategy elements, as the player's character battles rival families and take over businesses to ultimately become a "don" ruling over many cities. Robert Duvall reprises his role as consigliereTom Hagen in both voice and likeness as he did in the first game. However, Al Pacino, who played Don Michael Corleone
in the film did not provide his likeness or voice and the character of
Michael was changed significantly in the game itself. The movie's plot
is not entirely adapted as the lengthy flashback sequences, involving a
young Vito in 1920's New York, are not
adapted for the game

Aggregate websites GameRankings and Metacritic report scores in the mid 70% range across all three platforms. Several reviewers cited it as an improvement over past Transformers
games. Critics generally felt that the cooperative and multiplayer

game's setting.
