As had already been announced in this thread, there were to be four Doctor Who adventure games released in the near future.

The first of these games, City of the Daleks, has been released from the official website, and is now available free to download for citizens of the UK. I've already downloaded and will play soon.

I feel that as news, there should be more substance to the post, but there's not much else to say.

Its a free game so its hard to complain but in my opinion the scenarios are good but the game engine is complete balls. The camera feels like I'm floating awkwardly in Zero-G and I don't feel I'm actually controlling the Doctor.

BBC needs to learn some grammar.

@Pong: why would you want to upload the installer if you can just download it from the source?

I've not had a chance to play it, so I'll probably not be able to say much on it yet.

Both Doctors have their merits, and I like them both, including Matt.

Now, like I said, back to the game and related discussion, not talk about who you prefer.

They both aren't what I'd call good looking. I want Neil Tennant.


Actually I don't have anything useful to say about this.

Game is pretty meh. I was going to say "its free so I can't complain" only that I pay my TV licence that funds this so perhaps we should rally up for a refund.

Also David Tennant is an actor playing a character called the Doctor, a very good actor indeed but not the Doctor.

Matt Smith is the Doctor as far as I'm concerned. He has that Time Lordy quality that I missed, sadly people can't get past rose tinted glasses to see his true quality. Had he came before Tennant people would be moaning that David wasn't as good.

    So true
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
