I'm more worried about completion/polish than whether they'll stay true to the material. I think they'll do fine with nailing the funny. I'm not worried about that.

Also after reading the mag article, especially the part about Parker's love for Oblivion, I have more faith that they'll make this the first good southpark game. I could be wrong, but I'm hopeful.

I hope they rehired a new QA team after New Vegas.

I don't know. I'm having a bit of trouble imagining this game turning out good. Nothing against Obsidian, but I just have a bad feeling about this. Sort of like the anxiety I got before Homefront and Duke Nukem Released. Just have a weird feeling about this.

I think that there is a good chance that this game will be good. However, I will still be waiting to see more before I make any kind of judgement.

It's going to be hilarious.

Just think ff 1 with roshambos

if the jokes are getting old to you then you aren't doing south park right

you guys are reeeeeeeeeeeeally pushing hard on this one aint'cha?

I hope that the game turns out fine but when I read that it would be a turn based RPG it had me a bit worried. Hopefully it plays like the Mario RPG's, where you can still counter the enemies instead of sitting there letting them hit you. Obsidian may not be the best developer out there, but I have enjoyed their games a lot, hopefully it doesn't ship with any major problems.

looking good

Obsidian is developing this? Hhhhhmmmmmmmmmm............

It sounds like they're really trying to capture the southpark we know and love and make it really fun to play. I really hope they succeed! :)

As an avid fan of South Park, I'm really excited for this game. Obsidian does a consistently good job with properties that are handed to them from other studios, and I have faith that they will put out another fun experience. Also, it's nice to hear that Matt and Trey are fairly well involved with the process.

Surely Matt and Trey are the ones doing the comedy writing on the game, otherwise, how will it ever be as funny or true to the show?

AWESOME-O

I've liked/loved south park for a long time since it first started in 1999 it was always so great in many ways, and thank goodness that its obsidian that got the license for the South park RPG. i know from what i've played that obsidian CAN make great RPG's and i've loved every one i've played from them! i have alot of confidence that they are going to make great use of this license

I think this game will be amazing but I have my doubts about Obsidian......Every game they release is SUPER buggy but I hope this one isnt

It seems that there are daily updates on this game - there must be some incentive to GI.

That said, my hype went from non-existent to actually toying with the idea of purchase. Just because a few years ago, I used this show to twist political events into humor for a project in political science. Obviously, I did not take the class seriously, but the idea I had was executed in a satisfying way along with a devotion to this show and a nice grade to follow.

I do look forward to this game, but I just look at Obsidian as... not wholly good.

Wow, he was more candid about internal dissent than I expected.  I was also surprised that they had to hire such a (apparently) big chunk of the art design team for this game instead of drawing on internal staff.  All that being said, I'm still really looking forward to this game.  I could be dead wrong, but I think this game is going to be amazing, niche perhaps, but amazing nonetheless.

This is one of the first games I'll buy on release because of the development stories.

You would never expect Obsidian Entertainment to make a southpark game, would you?
