I still have very fond memories of playing through The Telltale Games Collection during the Christmas break of 2014, and because of this, it holds a special place in my heart. What also helps cement this package in my memory are the fantastic games which are bundled within.
When Telltale Games took on the Batman franchise with their initial series in 2016, and then The Enemy Within back in 2017, they providing fans with a new look at the Batman universe; one full of emotion and deep storytelling. Today though those same Batman tales get enhanced, with some graphical goodies coming about via the new Shadows Edition.

I honestly believe that I am the only man currently alive who has never seen an episode of the TV show, despite having read the series of books multiple times. Despite everyone telling me how great the show is, I just have difficulty in believing that it can be as amazing as the scenes that have played out in my mind. I initially felt the same way about any video games of the series, but seeing that Telltale Games’ 2014 adaptation of the Game of Thrones Universe wasn't based on the books, I decided to dive in and see what was what. And boy, was I glad that I did.
