Spoilers ahead for those of you who haven't played the games yet:
In "City of the Daleks", the Daleks have captured the Eye of Time, apparently a Time Lord artifact that allows the Daleks to travel in time. At first I thought it might be an alternate term for the Eye of Harmony, the source of Gallifrey's power in all the classic stories, but then the Eye of Time is described by the Doctor as being a naturally occuring phenomenon, and suggests that it could be some kind of remnant from the original Big Bang - descriptions which do not match that of Rassilon's Eye of Harmony. Besides, I reckon it's more likely the Eye of Harmony was destroyed along with Gallifrey. So where does this Eye of Time thing fit in with what we everything else we know of Gallifrey and the Time Lords? If it's not the Eye of Harmony, surely something as powerful as this would have been seen or mentioned before?
And how come the game "Blood of the Cybermen" and the TV episode "The Pandorica Opens" feature incompatible accounts of Amy Pond's first encounter with the Cybermen?
(*Oh, and speaking of the Eye of Harmony: In "The Deadly Assassin", there are some Gallifreyans who apparently believe it to be a myth as its location has been lost for eons by the Doctor's time. Fair enough...but then there's the duplicate Eye of Harmony in the TV movie that's part of the Doctor's TARDIS, and presumably all other TARDISes; where do they suppose THAT came from?!)
