The Walking Dead has finally returned for its Season 7 premiere and as a huge fan of Robert Kirkman's massively popular zombie horror franchise, I've decided to bring the infamous Survival Instinct to trial. Published by Activision and developed by Terminal Reality, The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct is a first person horror game that should have been a hit, but it ended up being slammed by the critics. Is Survival Instinct a disaster of zombiepocalypse proportions or is it a misunderstood Walking Dead gem? Find out on Innocent Until Proven Guilty! Thanks for watching:)

Whereas LJN Defender focuses solely on sticking up for LJN games, Innocent Until Proven Guilty takes a close examination of notoriously "bad" video games from other publishers. While my area of expertise lies in retro video game consoles from Nintendo's NES to the Sega Genesis and beyond, IUPG will eventually dip into modern-ish gaming, with a few select Xbox 360 and Wii games being considered for "trial".

In an average Innocent Until Proven Guilty episode, I give each defendant a fair trial, or review in this case, and bring up their redeeming and condemning qualities. After the examination is concluded, I put the game through one final breakdown, where I weigh all of the Innocent and Guilty traits against each other. After that's finished, it's time to give out the final verdict.

While I'm very forgiving of "bad" video games and there will never be an "execution" of a guilty party, I will give it a strict reprimand when needed. That's IUPG in a nutshell. Watch me dish out digital justice in a snazzy looking suit coat and bow tie combo. Thanks for watching:)

Have a retro title that you'd like to see me review or a "bad" game that you'd want to see me give a fair trial on Innocent Until Proven Guilty? Feel free to suggest one in the comments.

As always, thank you for watching. Your support means the world to me:)
