South Park: The Game

[Watchman]

Screw Arkham! This is going to be the best franchise game.

 

[Wolfwood]

Heh, I love the Facebook idea. I wonder if it'll be like other Obsidian games where you can have a companion role with you? If so, me and Kenny all the way. Also, I'm dying to know what the "unconventional class" will be.

 

[Crockett]

Ok, this just sounds great, so looking forward to it.

$5 the unnamed class is something like jew

 

[Silvermoth]

Seriously, seriously, seriously guys! This sounds like a proper, epic singleplayer RPG. Skyrim meets Shouth Park!

No-one's taking this serial!

(I seriously used to know a girl at uni who replaced the word 'seriously' with 'serial' after seeing South Park. None of the uni lecturers knew what she was talking about ever)

lol
I wouldn't doubt that. This is looking interesting.

I was curious to see how the "hardcore" obsidian fans were feeling about this announcement on their forum. Man, they're really losing their **** over there. Some are claiming they're going to abandon Obsidian over this game.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Really? Ten bucks they end up just like Squaresoft/Square Enix fans with Kingdom Hearts. Gamers are fickle.

God, it's hard to imagine anyone was freaking out over that game. I love that some are claiming this is just a "money grab." As if Obsidian is selling out or something.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

I enjoyed the last game they released(granted, I was like 11 or 12 at the time).
I'm looking forward to seeing how this develops.

 

[RED_Rider]

Jews will probably be a faction where Kyle is the leader or quest giver. I just hope the final class isn't something normal like the rest (Mage and such). South Park is filled with crazy stuff and some of the classes in the game should be based on them. Something like "Hippie Hunter" or "Ginger Master".

Stop joking, I'm super serial

Holy ****. It looks like you're playing the fricking TV series. I'm in. So in.

 

[Wolfwood]

In one of the developer interviews he says that "Matt got close to the TV and said 'Oh my God, you can see the construction paper texture!'" I thought that was really cool.

 

[Crockett]

Christ, I haven't play a Obsidian game since KOTOR II. The details so far sounds great and keeping it 2D is the best and frankly the only way to go so I'm really hoping they can pull this off.

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

Obsidian tend to be hit and miss.
When they hit, they hit good.

Good call!

[Wolfwood]

Ahaha, Oh God. I wonder if they're will be complaints? The Jews tend to be cooler about being made fun of.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Haha if they haven't complained by now, they aren't going to. It's the scientologist ya have to worry about. Don't want Tom Cruise coming after ya.

 

[Silvermoth]

I wonder if you'll be able to tp as an attack.

 

[Crockett]

Haha, this isn't surprising but it's nice to see they're willing to push the envelope even for the video game.

I hope the song "Let's Fighting Love" plays at one point during the game.

 

[Jick]

^That is a must:

 

[Matt]

Matt Maclean, lead designer, tells Game Informer the Jew will be "high risk, high reward" and strongest when closest to death.

There are going to be retailers who refuse to sell this game. I can already see Wal-Mart not selling it, in stores at least.

 

[Donut]

They can always make it Console Store Exclusive instead of Retail. That way no problems & no one ready to sue or refuse it

i love KH, but i have to laugh at all the kick up when it was first announced, now its the only decent franchise square has left
