Not my child!

Alex at BitMob has been playing TellTale's The Walking Dead, and he has run into something I thought was a little familiar--parental instinct driving his game play.

I felt a lot of those same emotions he was feeling while playing the original Silent Hill. When I played the original game in 1999, my child was barely two, and the game's tug on my base fears as a parent was strong. It definitely gave the game a bigger emotional impact for me, and left a long lasting impression.
