Was it you who asked for a redo of the current Doctor Who opening credit sequence in Super Nintendo style? No? Here it is anyway:

    That is so awesome!!!! Thanks for posting that! I kind of wanted to see a how a 16-bit version of a Doctor Who game would have worked… to bad nobody has made one… yet. Speaking of Doctor Who, if anyone is interested, click on my name to read my review of the latest Doctor Who episode. Not that I want to take the wind out of the sails from Kyle Anderson, who covers Doctor Who like a champ on this site! I anxiously await to what he thought of “The Almost People” as well.
