Ubisoft has officially announced its acquisition of THQ Montreal along with the publishing rights for South Park: Stick of Truth.
Over the last 25 years, there has been a fair few South Park games, and here GameSpew has ranked them all from best to worst.
We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago. It's their IP they can sell out, of course; it just means the quality of their show has tanked and other products as well. Nevertheless, they put on excellent musicals, but those haven't been sold to a mega corporation.
They said awhile ago that Ubisoft holds contract rights to the main flagship South Park games. So like stick, fractured and phone destroyer.
Snow Day was handled by THQ and Question and is a random spinoff. Hopefully Ubisoft is cooking something.
Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.
The South Park series has somehow managed to stay relevant for over 25 years, but which are the best games based on the TV show?
The only two worth playing are Stick of truth and fractured but whole. The rest were garbage except snow day which I can't say anything about yet. But with that said, unlike stick and fractured which debuted as AAA full priced titles by ubisoft, snow day is a new developer and publisher and has a budget price at only $30 soooo
Feeling sad and on the verge of splurging on unnecessary stuff? Drop that credit card, amigo and come read about the funniest PS4 games!
I see Deadpool made the list. Also saw it in stock at the local game store. Second hand. Might finally pick up a copy.
This year doesnt sound good seeing as it was supposed to launch in march, i bet its getting delayed to add useless uplay features noone wants. Just watch Ubisoft ruin this game.
I feel bad for Patrice Desilet(creator of assasins creed). He leaves Ubisoft with core members of Ubisoft Montreal then gets sued by Ubisoft wins the lawsuit. Goes to work for THQ at their new Montreal studio. THQ goes down and guess who buys the studio and the projects he was working on... Ubisoft. Thats just so bad for the guy.
Hopefully this comes out before the new consoles otherwise i might have to pass.
This could have worked out worse for the south park game.
This year and every year after, according to Ubisoft's track record.
RIP South Park
Of course the game was going to flop anyway but now it will just flop harder.
