I concur regarding the 2 part show...excellent.

I've read alot about this expedition and for them to have gone through what they went through, for so long, shows the resilience and tenacity of these men. An absolute amazing fete...particularly their decision to abandon the expedition and their trip to Elephant Island and onto South Georgia...not to mention the trip over uncharted snow covered mountains to try and get help.

Honestly, everytime I think of this expedition, it fills me with wonder.

I'll be interested to see what the game has to offer in terms of playability

I have this game as well.

For replayability, it seems pretty darned good. The thing is, the historical result - which is that everyone on the expedition miraculously survived - was a Hail Mary of sorts, a long shot that had very little chance of happening. That's the grail result, I think. You're going to have a hard time winning this game, in other words.
