Seriously though, the sad part is that if done properly (i.e. being similar to Silent Hill or other 3rd person adventure-action games), these games will be more true to the spirit of the original series than most of the rubbish that's been put out lately (e.g., Victory of the Daleks).
If I get around to it, I'll probably review it in the cblogs.

Just yesterday a friend was telling me about this totally new show where a doctor travels through time.
Conrad, the trailer says June 5th 2010. We do the date/month thing the other way around in the UK.
@Guncannon: Victory wasn't that bad. It was mostly an excuse to bring back the Daleks after RTD decided to write their destruction into a corner, but I like how they're showing the old violent side to The Doctor again.

Get this game on XBLA and PSN.
I'd gladly pay money for it. It's a Doctor Who game. And I'd like The Doctor to be experienced in the lounge room, not the sitting room.
@ Guncannon - Disagree. Not the greatest Dalek story ever - but Genesis can only happen once. And loving the subplot buildup. Personally I'm feeling this Moffat series shares many more elements of the classic Doctor era (by which I mean 1970 - 1978 Dicks/Letts/Holmes/Hinchcliffe) than Russell T's.
But if Doctor Who fans could ever agree on favourite episodes (or eras) - well that just wouldn't be right!

@Stevil: Thanks for pointing that out, man. I was about to do it.
These are free, right? So if it's your choice as to whether you download them or not, then you can't really complain too much.
I'm guessing these are going to be (a bit) like Telltale's games? They might be rather good. Or at least worth a look.

hmmm dont know what to think of it really. I love the series dunno if it should be made into a game.
LOL, that looks atrocious.
Will play it in the hope that I can manipulate the camera to see up the Amy Pond avatar's skirt, that might be worth a wank.

@Gareth: Didn't you watch the trailer? Matt Smith and Karen Gillan are also providing the voices too.

This was one of the best new Dalek stories since the revival, though it really needed to be a two parter - I felt it ended just as soon as it really began. RTD managed to turn my childhood nightmare into a massive joke and I think Victory was a step in the right direction.
Loved the nod to the Troughton era Dalek serials though.

@Mark Griffiths: I'll reiterate this important point for the benefit of others... they said these would be free. Even if it's a steaming turd, you can't complain about it wasting anything but your time.
I'm a big Doctor Who fan and always thought a doctor who game would never but seeing something like an adventure game done right could work. Providing that the developer is experienced and good enough to craft a game around a Doctor Who story.
This is probably going to be "region locked" to the UK, just like episode streaming.
Also, no 360/ps3 downloadable? I'd happily pay 10-15 an episode for this..
..maybe more.

Don't complain about UK region locking. You guys get Hulu.
Anyway I might download this if it's free as I'm loving the new series.
Steven Moffat > Russel T Davies by far.

The fact that Matt Smiths Doctor was able to threaten the most dangerous alien race in time and space with a Jammie Dodger was more than enough to put Matt Smith very close to Tennants level of awesome.
Anyway, this game looks horrible. But who's surprised by that?

@bunnymud: It's a lounge. I'd complain about America corroding the English language, but frankly everyone I know calls it a living room, so they're being a bit over-zealous on their words there.
@ seannicus
As if a region lock will mean anything on a PC game.
Great news, looking forward to it. Will probably be the first ever full game I torrent, because hey it's supposed to be free anyway. Thanks British tax payers!
Doctor Who in the adventure game style is a great idea, I only hope it is more Sam and Max style than Zelda style, but either will work I guess. I love the new series, Matt Smith is the best Doctor in a long while for me and the stories finally feel mature and classic again, more about good sci-fi than Rose's mother.

People complaining about the quality of the game, do note that it's been produced by a television company and is free. It's intended as a story telling device, and it will serve that purpose.
It's free, so I'm sold. And I love the eleventh doctor, so...doubly sold. Even if it looks a bit sketchy.
