Are The Walking Dead Strolling Over To Video Games?

Even though some people may be suffering from zombie fatigue by now, the success of AMC's adaptation of the comic series The Walking Dead proves that there's still some life in those atrophied legs. And if some recent online speculation holds up, there may be another undead game shuffling into the crowd.

According to an invite that 1up received, Telltale is holding an event in San Francisco on February 17. At this event, five of the company's upcoming games will be announced, including one that's "based on a just-launched property from the TV and comic book world whose popularity is changing life as some know it."

AMC's version of Robert Kirkman's comic series debuted on the network last October, which is close enough to "just-launched" for me. As far as recent properties from the TV and comic book world, The Walking Dead is the only thing that comes to mind. We'll have to wait a few weeks before we know for sure, but this looks like a pretty safe bet. Heck, if Telltale can work with the Jurassic Park license, the Walking Dead should be a comparative breeze.
