South Park is a funny show, but once I heard they had a game for the PlayStation all was lost. This game has no meaning. All you do is play as Kenny, Kyle and the gang and throw snowballs at giant turkey's. Basically all you do is just shoot at flat characters from the show. You'll lose interest in this game in 3 minutes flat! Don't buy this junk. Watch the show instead
Do I sense the words cash in?

Why did they bother with this? Acclaim said "All South park fans will love this... Captures the show's humour perfectly..." Since when? I have never played such unfunny, unplayable tripe in all my life! Firstly the gameplay, terrible is my view. Foggy vision, humourless weaponry and a terrible idea for a plot!
The characters for the game are even worse! listening to Stan shouting rubbish such as "You mother ......! I kick your ...!" after being hit just gets extremely annoying!
If you are a fan of the show you'll buy a video set and enjoy it. Rather than tarnish the name of a hit comedy by playing this rushed awful package!
Avoid it!
what, i have to give this "game" one star?!

People, i wrote this review to warn whatever of you out there want to buy this game.This will make even the most die hard game fans throw their playstations out the window.The games has most of the characters(whoopie...)which are represented with sub bar graphics and pitifull level desighn amoungst other things.the games boring.I rented it and it literally got old after 5 minutes of gameplay.If there is one redemable factor about this game its that you can laugh at how utterly stupid it is.Avoid this nerf dung at all costs.
This is horrible....

Being a South Park fan, I was looking forward to this title. However, it is SO repetitive and annoying...the turkey level alone goes on FOREVER. Friends of mine have had the same reaction. It's a first-person shooter (or should we say first-person snowballer) that just has you running around the town of South Park throwing snowballs at turkeys. Yeah, I know, according to the packaging, that the game evolves into some sort of space/zombie creature thing, and you're supposed to save the town, but I never got that far due to the overlong turkey-shooting level...when I saw the average 4-star rating, I knew I had to respond. Perhaps younger people will like this due to the character tie-in, but this 34-year-old was bored and disappointed in this title.

Plodding first-person shooter with tons of fog to conceal thegraphic weaknesses. One-player missions are tedious. Only redeemingfeature is to play the two-player game with other "South Park" fans, and then only if you've gotten the codes to unlock favorite characters.
Even with friends, you'll tire of it in a day.
So much potential!

I love South Park and I really hoped that this game would do the show justice, but I found that I was very disappointed with the graphics and the sound. I was hoping to see the boys in action, but all I saw was one of their arms that was supposed to be an extension of me. I also agree with the other reviewer that had trouble with the white on white setting. It can also be a little tough for people who are prone to motion sickness. South Park 2 ..please!
Boring, Boring and Boring

I simply find the game ordinary and boring. I really love the TV-show and was very much looking forward to the game.
Man I was dissapointed!
There is nothing new in the game. It is simply an ordinary shoot 'em up including the characters from South Park.
Admitted: There are a few funny features in the game, the cow-shooting gun, Mr. Hanky the christmas Poo but even these things gets quite boring after a very short while.
My advise is: Enjoy the TV-show and use your playstation for something else.
Fun, but gets boring quickly

This game is fun when you first play it, but once you see all the things you can do, you get bored with it quickly. The graphics parralell the animated show, but that isn't hard considering the low graphics SP is known for. All in all, it is worth renting for a night, but definitley not worth buying.
Needs Improvement

I love south park and was expecting more from the game when I heard about it. In story mode you can be any of the four 8-year-olds. All the unlockable characters can only be used in battle mode and that was one of the biggest dissapointments to me. Another was the characters always say the same thing, I think they should say something new each level or episode.
And the last was that they only killed kenny in one episode on the game (the one with the robot turkey). They should've killed him more!!!! I bet that dissapointed alota kenny fans.
I really wish they would've added more kenny deaths but oh well. I heard on a web-site that the creaters of SP are thinking about making a new video game but still don't know what company and game-system to have it on. It better be better than the others they made, thats for sure.
