A Jew’s take on playing a Jew in South Park: The Stick of Truth

GamesBeat's Jason Wilson: I expected more off-color jokes as a Jew, and if what I saw during the preview is representative of the full game, playing one is full of laughs and not particularly offensive. No Jew gold around my neck. No Moses-as-MCP Cone. You sometimes hear faint echoes of “Jews, Jews are lame” in the background (a line from the South Park Christmas Special’s Hanukkuh song). But I didn’t see anything that pushed the edge of decency.

Now I want to know what an easily offended Jew thinks of this game. :)

Has this writer ever watched South Park ?

They make fun of EVERYONE.

Nobody is off limits.

darkronin2294103d ago

Hah, I had no idea that Jew is a class in the game. Great write-up.

Cutter204103d ago

Wow, courting controversy much?

Irishguy954103d ago

Have you seen South Park before?

Qrphe4103d ago

Id give you a link to South Park Season 1 Episode 1 so you could get started

Great headline. And if you're offended by the Jew class, you're probably brand new to South Park.

rdgneoz34103d ago

"The Jew, says Ubisoft rep Jon Miller, is essentially South Park’s cleric class."

Gotta love south park.

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.

anast422d ago

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?

cammers1995529d ago (Edited 529d 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
