In case you’ve been living under a rock the last few months, then you’d no doubt be aware that THQ is in a bit of a financial mess right now. Actually saying it’s a financial mess is like saying the Hindenburg only had one small leak. Just a few days ago, THQ announced their stock dropped a massive 50%. This of course comes after announcing delays for Metro Last Light, South Park: Stick of Truth, and Company of Heroes 2, as well as admitting Darksiders II didn’t meet projected sales quotas. Maybe you’re living under a rock because you’re a THQ employee?
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.
Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.
The Metro video game series started with a humble b-list title, before building a strong fanbase and becoming a pioneer in the industry.
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
That is a pretty dramatic loss.
personally i don't think THQ will be around next year to even put out Metro: Last Light or South Park TSoT. i mean its pretty apparent after ubisoft publicly stated they would want to buy IP's off THQ. i mean you don't really see publishers come out and say stuff like that to the media about another publisher.
