PureSophsitry: Why South Park: The Stick of Truth Will Rock Your Socks Off

South Park hasn't had a very good line of games--sure the previous releases are quite old, dating all the way back to PlayStation and Nintendo 64...but all that is about to change.

The Stick of Truth is a diamond that will no doubt redeem the terrible games based on the franchise, shining crazily within the muck of previous South Park games and promising hours of hilarious, engrossing RPG action unlike any other game around.

Forged in current-gen graphics that adequately portray the show's cartoonish style without alienating fans with bizarre and awkward 3-D renders, The Stick of Truth stays true to the show, bring authentic voices of all of your favorite characters. In essence, it's very much like coordinating your very own series of episode

Most anticipated game of 2013, by far.

I_LOVE_MYSELF4144d ago

I wouldn't say that it is my most anticipated game because I am VERY cautious of South Park titles. Needless to say the game looks so full full of South Park charm it is pratically begging for me to buy it. I am very surprised by what has been accomplished and it looks like a lot of care has been put in to it.

As a South Park fan and as a fan of RPG games I am finding hard to remain "cautious" and I am starting to get hyped.

This game is basically a SouthPark Movie that you are playing /featuring in.

Same humor...not holding back....but epic story like the movie, or imagination land or something similar.

I remember hearing about this game a while back, but I'm surprised it still exists. I'm curiously intrigued by it...even though I'm not really in to South Park anymore. But I AM in to RPG's, and if this game pulls it off then it might just turn in to something special.

And it's made by Obsidian- they do games RIGHT!

So many games to get next year.
This is a definite purchase for me.

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.

That's one reason to be hopeful, but Ubi is trending down too.

Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.

The 7 Best South Park Games

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?

cammers1995127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

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
