This game doesn't have the best graphics, or the best music, or the best action, but it's the one game that's had a far greater emotional impact on me than any other. It's the one game where the story and the gameplay felt the most integral, where one would've been very little without the other. This is a game where you act as a surrogate father to Clementine, who is by far the best child character in video game history, this is a game where tragedy and despair are shown equally along without hope and optimism, where you're forced to feel the full impact of every choice you make. The characters are all flawed, but deeply relatable, and they end up making many of the events that unfold all the more heart-wrenching, and the ending easily eclipses all previous attempts at emotional endings in this medium. The Walking Dead is worth going through, from beginning to end, more than any other game I've ever played, and I can't praise highly enough.
