Telltale's Game Of Thrones coming December
Options
New details about Telltale's "Game Of Thrones" have been released on the game's Steam page. Among these are an approximate release date, price, trailer and sale that will net PC gamers 10 percent off the regular price.
As far as that information is concerned, "Game Of Thrones'" first episode, called "Iron From Ice," will launch as soon as Dec. 2014. While no exact date has been given beyond that, fans can rest easy knowing that "winter is coming" very soon. If folks want to purchase the game on PC, its regular price is $29.99. However, a 10 percent discount currently offers the entire series for $26.99.
Console versions are likely to arrive within days of the PC build, but no specific price has been given for those builds at this time.
For those that missed the previous news, Telltale's "Game Of Thrones" begins sometime after the season three timeline of the HBO TV series. As a member of House Forrester, your family remains loyal to the Starks. Regardless, just like all of the show's families, yours has been dragged into the ever-growing War of the Five Kings. As a different family member in each of six episodes, gamers will be tasked with the responsibility of navigating that complex political landscape.
As in all Telltale games, player choice is paramount. Will the Foresters make new friends or die at the hand of their enemies? That depends on several pivotal decision points throughout the experience.
Those that happen to be a fan of the show should find a lot to love about the game. Players will not only visit familiar locations like King's Landing and The Wall, but they'll also interact with the series' main characters with their proper actors providing the voices.
The series will be released on OS X, PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Telltale Games’ Game of Thrones episodic adventure rolls out to its various platforms starting this week. To mark the occasion, the developer has shared a launch trailer for the first episode, called Iron from Ice, which are also the house words of the series’ protagonists, House Forrester. The episode goes out on December 2 for Mac, PlayStation 4 (in America), and Windows; December 3 for PlayStation 4 (in Europe), Xbox 360, and Xbox One; December 4 for iOS; December 9 for PlayStation 3; and a later, as-yet-unannounced date in December for Android.

The trailer provides more context than we have yet seen about the Forrester’s saga. Margaery Tyrell (voiced by series actor Natalie Dormer) pleads with Cersei Lannister on behalf of the Forresters, who fear for their safety if the Boltons are given control of the north, because of bad blood between the Forresters and some of the Bolton’s bannermen. Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) also offers a bit of pithy advice. The rest of the trailer features a growing sense of doom, a bit of swordplay, and a glimpse of creepy Ramsay Bolton doing what he does best: being creepy.
Just like we started doing with Telltale’s Tales from the Borderlands series that began recently, we will be writing up recaps for each episode as it comes out, saving a review until the entire season has wrapped. See you in Westeros!

I like the game so far

I never watched the show before (yeah you can grill me for it) but I might get this just because I like the quality of games that Telltale puts out. The Wolf Among Us was dope & I just bought Walking Dead Season 1 yesterday. I really would like a sequel to The Wolf Among Us though.

It's worth the money. I copped season 2 for about $5-6 last winter.
