Hopefully they can put a bit more money into the animations, for the second season.

@Indefinite Implosion the game is being funded by the BBC. i wouldn't expect too much more from it. it's a game made for kids. its free if you're in the UK

One season and already:

Matt Smith > Tennant and Eccleston. Incredible job Moffat.

@Discotheque I love Karen Gillan too.

@Discotheque
he's good but i dont think better than Tennant, Tennant just got me as the kinda crazy guy that could snap but never did. He was awesome and i think he will always be the best, (of course i am open to new ideas when they come)
now Matt Smith is a great doctor don't ge me wrong but just something about him doesn't quite work for me. He is good at being the doctor just not quite up to Tennant. that being said can't wait for the new season and the christmas special.

I don't think Matt Smith can ever be as good as Tennant. Largely because while Tennant made the Doctor his own and played a different type of Doctor to Eccleston, Matt Smith just seems to be trying to copy Tennant's style and just constantly seems inferior for it.

@Discotheque

Any of em beat the pants off of Eccleston, even Paul McGann and Peter Cushing were more Doctorly a Doctor!

He's holding a Move wand.

Wasn't the first season just announced??

@ovoon no, its been out in the UK for quite some time. recently hit the states maybe a month or two ago

if you use a UK proxy you can go to the BBC website and play the game for free, since the game is free for the brits. They are only charging people from outside of the country. I just think they are still mad about the tea party and with all the talks of the tea party on the news these days it brought up old memories for them :P.

@shoan It's part of our revenge plan, starting by pollutiing your oceans and blocking free games.

@shoan It's because the dev costs are covered by our license fees. All BBC content is free for us because we pay a lump sum TV tax once a year that is given to the BBC to make stuff. All BBC channels (TV and Radio) are also commercial free for the same reason. But ALL Johnny foreigners must pay or put up with commercials if they want access (unless you proxy) not just rebellious tax dodging Yankees.

We are however following your Tea party stuff at the moment with much amusement.

We are very much enjoying reading about the anti-masturbation, unemployed, tax dodging nutter and darling of the fundamentalist far-right Miss O'Donnell at the moment. But they are all very entertaining, particularly Ms Palin and Mr Beck, a comedy writer couldn't write better characters.

Everyone bought the first game to see what it was going to be like. While the graphics could have been worse, the animations were weird, and the gameplay too slow to feel like a frantic Dr Who as every episode becomes.
