The Spike VGX was held on Saturday, December 7, and obviously yielded some cool gaming news. The event is touted as, "VGX, the next generation of Video Game Awards, is an all-day gaming experience, and a true binging dream for gamers." If you missed it, want more details or want to watch the video clips for world premieres, click on the link and head on over.

One of the (many) big reveals of the event was that the studio behind "The Walking Dead" video game series, Telltale Games, has announced that they're making a "Game of Thrones" series. The game is based on the HBO show and will be similar to their other series games.

According to a piece over at Kotaku, "Telltale says it'll be similar to their previous series, and there will be big battles—'You'll be swinging a sword now and then.'—but not the type of heavy action scenes you'd see in other video games. It is still Telltale."

The game is still in development but we'll keep you posted on when it will be available.

Creator of "The Walking Dead," Robert Kirkman, and Telltale Games have officially announced "The Walking Dead: Season 2"- a Telltale Games Series, which is now available for pre-order on both Mac/PC through their online store, as well as Steam. The second season will also be available on home consoles, such as the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, and iOS devices at a later date.

The game is a continuation on the first, which follows young orphan girl, Clementine, as she tries to survive on her own in the midst of the zombie apocalypse. Players will take on the role of a child as they try to out smart both the undead and the living, while facing situations that control the story through their actions and decisions, as well as test their morals.

"The terrifying nature of Robert Kirkman's world has allowed Telltale to push the boundaries of interactive drama in video games to a place that has had fans anxious to know what will happen next in the series, today we can finally lift the veil, albeit only a little, on how this story will continue, and we'll soon be putting players in the shoes of a lead role that will challenge their expectations of how to survive in a world where no one can be trusted," Dan Connors, CEO and Founder of Telltale Games stated on the upcoming game.
