    Why does it have to be a digital download? Won’t the file size be huge???

      Good question on the file size… no idea at this point. I’m rather suspecting that it won’t be huge… I don’t think it this will be a particularly lengthy game.

      Either way, this has to fit on to a PS Vita memory card… and a lot of people will only have 4G memory cards… so they’ll have to be conservative.

      Well. Probably. 🙄 We don’t even know the price yet… I guess we’ll find out file size at the same time.

      Considering this game is so close to launch, we don’t really have a lot of specific info. >_<

      *The file sizes for the different platforms will likely be different too.

    I will more likely get this on PC if it isn’t on Xbox Live Marketplace they really should let Microsoft Game Studios convert the game for Xbox users

      The Hd’s not why people who hate the ds and wii games like this. It’s the gameplay. Honestly, I love the ds one. Never played the wii one so can’t really say about that.

      I hear it’s a download-only game so we might get it available on Xbox live market place.

      It would be very stupid indeed, not to release it for Xbox aswell, they won’t get my money then ! 😆

      I agree the Silence donot look right, but the Doctor is marvellous enough, it really makes me happy to see him renderd to perfection 🙂

      Unfortunately this game is not getting released on Xbox 360, so I won’t get buying it 🙁

      not unless the BBC complain, but they can do that at anytime anyway, there are no copyright articles or pictures of anyone else’s on this site that i am aware of unless they are official or via press releases or come under the fair use policy.

      I can see why they are worried but this mainly effects very large sites an forums that are largely user lead, basically the site is being held responsible for what ever is posted on it and that’s impossible to police on large sites, or may innocently get missed. The entire Wikipedia site for example could become blocked for one indiscretion by a user posting copyrighted info on it.

      But surely a law passed in the US could only affect the US, they don’t control the whole world.

      Cue conspiracy theorists.

    • booboo

      January 18th, 2012 - 7:46pm

      not sure of the ins and outs but i think part of the issue seems to be sites like google being forced to block so called law breaking sites which might have a knock on effect.

      Personally they should spend a bit more time locking up the people who try to sell prescription drugs (and worse) on sites like this. seriously you want to the rubbish we have to deal with.

    feddup of seeing that stupid Dalek in practicly everyhting (Dalek drone figure, wind-up dalek drone, dalek drone clock, countdown calender with dalek drone , dalek drone poster, dalek drone RC figure, 10 ” Dalek drone, dalek drone is on too much!!) 🙁

      The Silence look way better here, would it be cool if character options based their Silence figure on these guys. 😀 I don’t know if the figure would be more accurate through. Also the Dalek Drone is getting more attention in merchandise, than in the actual show. 🙁
