At least it's one less shovelware title on the console.

Not hating on Activision, but outside of Transformers Fall of Cybertron I can't think of one single great game they have been involved with in the last year. There are several good or okay titles, but nothing that would make me care all that much if they stopped selling there products in Australia all together.
Now if Valve, Cd Projekt Red, EA or several indie devs/publisher stopped selling games in Australia, then I would be upset (though I would just import).

The Telltale game isn't, but do we know if this one is any good?

I call shenanigans.
If you think Smogon ban stuff
"Just because they can't beat it"
You clearly don't play OU
You clearly have no knowledge of the metagame
And you clearly don't deserve to have an opinion.

Just because this one isnt the telltale game, doesnt make it shovelware. We've only seen trailers so far but it looks decent, your typical zombie shooter.

It may be good, from what I have seen however it does seem to be shovelware, or close to it.

As an Australian perhaps I should be disappointed, but it's hard to be disappointed for what you didn't know was a thing.

I feel shovelware is a strong word
Is it really almost as bad as games like this?

Dude that guy has a scarf of sausages...... I really don't know what to say about the cover.
Shovelware is a derogatory computer jargon term that refers to software noted more for the quantity of what is included than for the quality or usefulness. The term is also used to refer to software that is ported from one computer platform or storage medium to another with little thought given to adapting it for use on the destination platform or medium, resulting in poor quality.
The metaphor implies that the creators showed little care for the original software, as if the new compilation or version had been indiscriminately created/ported with a shovel, without any care shown for the condition of the software on the newly created product. The term "shovelware" is coined with semantic analogy to phrases like shareware and freeware, which describe methods of software distribution. Crapplet is a similar term.
To me the term shovelware does seem to fit. Either way the game looks bad with little effort evident.
