Finally my two loves come together, Doctor Who and the PS3. Doctor Who: The Eternal Clock released yesterday, I played about an hour, and I am really enjoying it. You can tell that the developers are fans of the show, as it feels like an episode you would watch. Smith voices the doctor, and RiverSong is also voiced by the same person. For some reason Amy and Rory aren't in it, but it isn't that big of a deal. It’s a side scrolling platformer, with some puzzles in it. I’ve encountered the Cyberman so far, but the dalek, silence and Silurian, as well as two other unknown monsters are in it.

So far it’s very enjoyable, the controls work well and the gameplay is great. But the best part would have to be all the little touches, the little movements the doctor makes, the sound of the sonic screwdriver, the constant jokes the doctor makes, all make this feel really authentic. Not sure how long the game is, but there is a trophy for completing it in under 300 minutes (5 hours) so I would imagine if you take your time and explore, it will be closer to 6 or 7. At $20 it may seem a little pricy for some, but I had not problem picking this up.

So did anyone else get this, or is anyone planning on getting it now.

    Is it available on other platforms? I have an 11yo who is a huge Doctor Who fan! But we have a 360, no PS3.

    Would love to have this for xbox 360! I'm going to have to check it out and see if it comes for other platforms!!
    Just wish it were David Tennat's voice instead of Smith. :(

    As far as I know its only PS3, but a PC version and a Vita (Sony handheld) versions will be coming out soon. Although the PC version may be out now. AS far as 360 goes not sure, I think it may have been developed by a Sony owned studio, and if that is the case then it won't be coming to the 360.
