'Doctor Who' Videogame On the Way

The best game with 'Doctor' in the title since 'Dr. Mario'?

Hot on the heals of our other various videogame announcements and some recent spoilers concerning a certain Time Lord and a show that's popular here at ComicMix, word now comes from the site Videogaming247 that a videogame based on the hugely popular Doctor Who BBC television series is on the way.

According to the site, video game producer Edios confirmed the game is in active development and is being made for various gaming platforms including the PC, Sony PS2 and the Nintendo DS.

When asked to confirm the game was, in fact, in development, an unnamed rep for Edios said:

“That is correct. We haven’t announced a release date at the moment. It’s not too far away. We should be showing it to [press] quite soon.”

Well, there you go. Even though details are still mostly unknown right now, it doesn't seem like eager fans will have to wait too long to know more about the game -- and that's great for them.

For me, if I had a choice, I would actually prefer a game based on a different BBC Sci-Fi show. A show that I actually like quite a bit: Torchwood. With all the innuendo, sex, aliens and action, that would be a cool game. Anyone else fancy a game of Torchwood?
