    It is a single player adventure RPG using turn by turn combat. A nod to olde games of the past with funny South Park humor. A good distraction while waiting for SotA!

    You are the new kid in town and adventure with Kenny, Cartman, and the rest of the gang.

    Think Super Mario RPG for the SNES meets South Park.

    OoOooOOoo... thanks for that. So is the commercial actual gameplay? Turn based combat? Now you got me sort of thinking of renting it but I haven't watched South Park since the movie came out. I might be a bit behind...

    I actually really enjoyed Super Mario RPG. That's exactly what I was thinking of after turn based combat was mentioned. Interesting..... *ppnders about adding to gamefly queue*

    i watched a little bit of the game play and it looks just like the show. I'll just wait for some sale before i get it tho. 14 hours of game play for $60 is a little exspesive too me. I could finish that in under 2 days.

    I finished it in about 4 days, I was searching for everything. Which unfortunately made me hit the level 15 cap a decent ways before the ending.

    That said, I consider my experience and takeaway just as much as the hours of play time. I really don't understand this concept that has arisen to ppl placing value based on the number of hours posted as an average.

    The fun I had and the humor made it worth every single disgusting sticky penny. You bastards.

    K-K-KOTOR?


    I can't understand why some people can spend 60$ during one night at the night club but don't wanna buy games that are worth as much.

    If I had to spend $60 at a night club, then I am not doing something right.

    To me a $60 game must have a certain level of replayability or an MMO or FPS or RTS or any online style game. I only then have actual game play time to decide if the game is worth it to me.

    I understand - to each their own, but like I said I just don't see the hours approach as a deciding factor personally.

    I pay about $20 to see and 1.5 hour movie and I'm ok with that because of the entertainment value provided. In those terms a 20 hour game is worth about $250.

    If I take away a memorable and appreciable experience its worth my investment.

    This is why I love Gamefly. I don't feel bad if I don't like the game... problem is it'll take almost a week for the next one to get in.

    I generally agree. Time is a huge limiting factor for me, so I'd rather have fewer hours of better experiences. Frankly those long-epic games I enjoyed when I was younger now go unfinished.

    I've only started playing it and it's a blast. It's actually deeper as an RPG than I thought it would be and it does feel quite literally that you are "playing" the show. Make sure you visit every house and corner of the map. :)

    No way! KOTOR was fun and all, but it is far from a favorite of mine. Fallout New Vegas is what I was talking about.

    On my laptop I can not press S as fast as you need. Who knows the solution? I can not pass because of the aliens!
