    I just finished episode 1. I can't remember the last time a game made me care this much about the characters. I love Clementine, and I lost it when she broke her walkie talkie and explained what it meant to her.

    The part about breaking down over a video game character and everything. I immediately thought of the world's smallest violin.

    I still need to watch the show I've yet to make it past episode 1 and have not read the comics either.

    I'm not asking anyone to feel sorry for me. It's a pretty rare game that can elicit an emotional response like that, and for me, this is one of those few games. Others may feel differently, and that's ok. There's just something about Clementine. Her bushy hair, the ballcap she wears that belongs to her father, her bravery even when her parents are most likely dead. Even her name. It makes me want to do anything I need to do to protect her from the bad stuff. I think all of the characters are so well done and believable.

    God damn. I just finished Episode 2, I played through the whole thing in one sitting. I cannot wait for Episode 3.

    Spoilers:

    I had to switch input methods from 360 controller to mouse/keyboard during the sequence with Brenda on the stairs. After about 7 tries with the 360 stick, it just kept moving me too close to her without me really trying.

    At the end, I was afraid I had made the wrong choice in not helping to steal from the car. Here I am making the moral choice in front of Clementine, when really the old morality system didn't apply anymore. But when they offered her the hoodie, and she looked at me and shook her head, I knew I had done the right thing.

    What's interesting, is that your choices really do impact the game. I'm curious, for any of you who choose to help loot the car (and 56% of you did!), when it shows the next episode teaser, does it show her wearing a red hoodie? I can tell from the dialog in the teaser that it reflects some of my other choices.

    Fascinating game!
