Doctor Who Video Game Coming in June

This isn’t a new piece of news, as I’ve read something about it before months ago, but didn’t bother to post about it. Now some further details have been revealed and so I thought I would give it a go.

The BBC recently released a sneak-peak video of the upcoming Doctor Who game, which followed Saturday evening’s episode of Doctor Who, which I missed, seeing as I don’t watch the show that much – I did when Chris Evans and Billy Piper starred. I preferred Chris to this Matt Smith fella.

The best part about this game is that it’s being released for the PC and the Mac as a downloadable title, and it’s free! The title is being developed by Sumo Digital, with Charles Cecil, creator of the Broken Sword series of games, on board, and the first episode in a planned series of four, just like the TV show – just shorter, should release on June 5th. The game will also be supervised and produced by some of the team who have something to do with the current TV series, and the stars will provide voices for the characters.

The official title is Doctor Who: The Adventure Games.

Doctor Who Video Game Coming in June

DSTV’s Discovery Channel’s Gone… to Channel 121

If you haven’t noticed, or don’t watch Discovery Channel on DSTV (or satellite as some call it), then you’ll be upset to know that it’s been moved from Channel 250 to Channel 121, right next to BBC Entertainment.

The move took place this week, yesterday in fact – the 1st of March, 2010. What a way to kick off Man’s Month! The way I logic it, and the way it looks now, is this:

You have BBC Entertainment at Channel 120, and BBC Knowledge at Channel 251. Then there’s the new channel for Discovery on 121, and Discovery World now sits in the place of Channel 250.
  
A similar move was made with National Geographic, when it spawned National Geographic Wild, as well as others. They say that Discovery was moved to form DSTV’s Entertainment bouquet.
So, when you see MythBusters on Channel 121, don’t panic; remember: “It’s just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right. Do the shuffle.”
