Well maybe... Not really what I'd like a Doctor Who game to be, but as long as I can pilot the TARDIS I will probably play them.

Graphics remind me a lot of Uru: Ages beyond Myst (as well as Myst 5) so, as a fan of both Doctor Who and Myst, I really want these :D

So will this be free then? Since they said 'there are seventeen episodes and four are interactive'. Meaning 13 will be free so are the others? >.>

I'll look forward to it if it's point and click adventure.

QFT, Moffat is a god, all the best episodes are written by him.

Loving the Avatar btw, brings back scary memories, can't wait to see em again this season =D.

This sounds like it has so much potential. Hopefully it's even half as good as the series. Either way, I plan to get the first world as soon as it comes out.

Yes they are going to be free apparently.

You know, not all British people are "English". =|

This is something I'm genuinely excited and worried about at the same time, if the game is good then the tie in to the series will make it amazingly awesome, but if the gameplay falls so flat even the story can save it then I'm going to be seriously disappointed and left with a bitter taste in my mouth at the soiling of one of my favourite series. (Yes I'm a bit of a pessimist.)

Charles Cecil can write a decent adventure game, but my hopes of Telltale doing a Doctor Who adventure series are out the window now :(
That's what I thought... There's a topic on the Telltale forums about which series would be great for a Telltale adventure and someone mentioned Doctor Who. It'd be a perfect fit. I hope the game lives up to it. Knowing that the guy behind Broken Sword is behind it is good news.

I also hope the answer to all puzzles is not >use sonic screwdriver on all.

Dear British government, I'll pay for your game if need be. Let me play it. God save the queen!

ENIWAY
This sounds like an awesome idea; I would have preferred it with David but oh well I guess.
I haven't seen the new doctor yet, but I've heard *lots* about him.

Now this, this is good news. Honestly, the show has been begging for a video game release.

I think it's just that The Doctor himself is such a... non-combatant protagonist, that all the war-based game developers (read: most developers today) can't see the appeal. Adventure games are great when done correctly, though.

Glad to see it's in fairly capable hands, for the writing if not necessarily the developing. Here's hoping for a Doctor Who version of Grim Fandango, only with excellent graphics and slightly less dead people.

Take it from me - just laugh it off. Tito can't go an article without annoying someone. Hahaha.

I've been wearing the same Tardis T-shirt for the past month, so yes, I'm excited.
Bigger on the inside? [/bad joke]

I love me some adventurin' in my games, and I love me some Doctor Who in my TV. This cannot be anything short of an entertainment wet dream!
