Telltale’s ‘The Walking Dead’ Is Coming To The Ouya
Developer Telltale Games has announced plans to bring their critically acclaimed series based on The Walking Dead to the Ouya. This winter, the console will get the entire first season as well as the bonus episode The Walking Dead: 400 Days that bridges the gap between the first and second season, due this fall. Season two will also come to the Ouya.
The Walking Dead is now available on PC, Mac, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, iOS, and most recently, the series made its way to the PS Vita. So there’s officially no reason for you not to have played the game. Seriously, get on it already.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
