Not a bad game by any means, and certainly much more entertaining if you're a South Park fan.

I can understand why some people would rate this game low, but I think I may have developed a soft spot for it. I grew up with the N64, sot his game brings back some nostalgia, and I'm a huge fan of the South park television series.

The graphics are surprisingly good for a licensed game from the N64 era. It represents the art style of the series pretty well and has good draw distance. The load times are extremely fast, and I never experienced a frame rate hiccup or anything like that. Overall the game just runs very smooth.

The soundtrack is actually really good. It has the South Park theme we all know and love, and the voices of the characters are all the same ones form the show. Matt and Trey actually contributed to the dialogue and made all new sound bits and such for this game. The great sound work they did with this game makes it seem like an extra long episode that you participate in.

The game play is very solid. At first the controls seemed strange to me, but that could possibly be because I haven't played a shooter on my N64 for a long time. Once I got used to the controls everything worked great. The level design is pretty good, but nothing amazing. It does what its supposed to, you get through the level, and its believable that it may have been included in a South Park episode.

Overall the game is fun, plain and simple. Its not an artistic masterpiece or anything of that nature, its just fun to play. Sure its not perfect, but I enjoyed it, and if you're a South Park fan and have an N64 that still work, you may like it too. Give it a look.

Great show for an average game..just...average

This N64 title was exclusive for N64 at one point but that doesn't really matter. South Park 64 looked really promising at first and it truly was with it's shocking yet really great graphics some what game play. And I was looking forward to one of the things South Park is best at. Stupid Funny plot. It kina had one but ends up failing AND I LOVE SOUTH PARK IT'S ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS OUT THERE. But for a game it's just..AVERAGE. Nothing new just run and gun but I liked the whole senario stories like the visitors and the Turkey episodes. Those were great. The game starts off really well as you battle your way through vicious Turkeys but once you beat the Turkey boss it just drags on with the same ol run n' gun and then fight the boss with nothing New. It's just the same ol' same ol.

Graphics are really good and one of the best on the N64. It really shows what the N64 can do. One of the best parts are the bosses cause there 3d animation is sooooo good. But that is just it...Graphics... Now lets get to the problem

Gameplay gets really boring after awhile. Really...It's just the same ol same ol but the game is great for Die Hard SouthPark Fans. I thought the game could have bin better but hey It wasn't But They still try to do a good job. But still...Gameplay is just a lil boring..

Sound is perfect...Trey Parker and Matt Stone do a great job as teh voices of those crazy boys. Sound is great ok!

Pros
Graphics
Sound
Voices
Cons
Gameplay is just way to boring and a bit tedious
Seems like playing the first Episode over again
The ending is sooo crappy I was really expecting something big and cool but just same lame ending...Then again it's just a game based on a show but seriously.

Over all I give it ....a

3.2 out of 5 stars

Get this game at your own risk but I recomend Chef's lUv shack...Much much betta and fun mini games.

Lates

The game was bad because they said alot of bad languge.They say lots of swears. Sometimes they fliped the bird.If you are younger than 18 maybe you should'nt get this game.Parents should look at the letter M.That means mature. If you see your children wathing this smack them on the head.(Hard!)

This is what friends are for

Only buy this is you are a hardcore south park fan, like video games a lot, or have a magnitude of friends to play this game with and the code BIRDBOY or something like that. That is the real purpose of the game (multiplayer mode). Otherwise this game would have tanked like the virtuaboy did.

Not So Good

I gave this game 5 stars because of the addiction. My cousic gave it to me for an Easter gift. Like most people said, he says it gets boring if you play it for too long. Well, I just started playing it and this is what I think of it. By Acclaim. MA only.

Was it neceressy? Absoulutely not. But here it is.

Sure, this game's been out for alomost four years now, but it's time I reviewed it. The exceptionally popular foul-mouth TV shows based on the fictional, yet epic adventures of Kyle, Cartman, Stan, and (the now removed) Kenny, four innocent little third graders (now fourth) in the snowy, mountain town of Colorado. It's a wonderful life; you have a gay teacher, a pimp-daddy chef, a best friend who dies more than 10 times a week, and all the Cheesy Poofs you could ever want. At least, until, killer turkeys, aliens, clones, and toys invade your town and try to take it over. YOU and YOU alon must prevent these attacks (or you could just leave the worthless town to be burnt, but then the game's no fun).

Like all shooter's, I only enjoy this game with cheats. The master cheat for this game is "BOBBYBIRD", or, if you break it down, "BOBBY BIRD". It unlocks every weapon, level, and everything else your twisted little mind wants from this game.

In single-player, you assume the role of either Stan, Cartman, Kenny, or who I always pick, Kyle. Each comes with their own insults and comments. As you progress, you find Kenny, Cartman, and Stan, and they come with you, but you can't play as or with them. They just allow you to hold more weapons and item (I guess that's because it's four pairs of hands). Your first mission is to destroy the turkeys; and ultimatly, the gigantic, robo-turkey. Without cheats, you start with a snowball, or you can advance it, and make it a "yellow snowball" (and if you've seen Jackass, you know what that is). The other weapons are a cow launcher, a toy-machine gun, and more. Sooooo much more.

This game is a good game, but only if you're a fan of the TV show. Even though it would be fun if some people weren't, they'd still annoy everyone, complaining of "bad language" and "foul humor". Ignore them. If you're a fan, get this, or at least rent it. Later.

Really silly

South Park the video game is all right. I don't think it's smash worthy but I really don't think it's flush worthy either because it did probably one of the smarter things and totally copied 007 GoldenEye and gave it a total South Park twist.

As usual, weird stuff is happening around South Park like mad, killer turkeys are attacking the city, strange mutants are running around and crazy self propelled toys are out to get you as you take the baddest 8 year olds on the planet Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman on this strange, vulger and very gratuitous journey.

I gotta say it, the game was funny and it made me laugh all the way through, especially if you ran across the Terrance and Phillip bombs! Other than that, I really didn't feel there was much else besides all the cool codes (like all the weapons codes and stuff) and that you could be so many people in the multiplayer mode like Officer Barbrady, Mr. Mackey (M'kay), Terrance and Phillip and if you really wanted to, Starvin' Marvin.

The story is really silly but then again, when is there an episode of South Park that isn't just plain out ridiculous? Exactly. The controls are pretty easy too. You can set it to GoldenEye style of control or for you advanced users, you can use a Turok type of control.

I still gotta say that I wouldn't play it for it's story mode. Personally, I'd play it for it's multiplayer mode because that's what the game is really good at! That and I personally thought you could do a lot more in the vs modes rather than in the story modes.

For you parents, most of the swearing is bleeped out but a few "choice" phrases are in there so give it a thought before you buy it for your kids. For those of you that don't have to worry about that, order a pizza, call over a few friends and throw on some South Park multiplayer. Have fun!

good

this game has the best non-gun multiplayer mode you can find. i dont know why its rated M when it should be K-A the bleep out all the bad words.other than that the multiplayer is fast paced and exciting with these histarical characters and perfect for a party.it loses points for having only around ten weapons or so and the story mode is okay for the first week. then it just gets old.so to rent or buy i would wai until it gets cheap and then buy it.

Misuse of a great license

Making South Park into a first person shooter isn't a horrible idea, it's just horribly executed. I imagine Acclaim bid on the South Park contract so quickly, they didn't bother to come up with any good gaming ideas it could go with. I would also be hard pressed to do so. ...
