No PC version but still I am fucking stoked.

No negative emo French shit in this thread please, South Park is still going strong and hilarious and Obsidian makes quality but buggy RPG's.

Counterpoint - Dungeon Siege 3.

No less than the likes of Bioware/Bethesda et al. The true difference is that they have, for whatever reason(s), a history of working with second (at least) hand engines/licenses, and that their QA and bug smasher corp tends to be less numerous/financed. Those, and unreasonable publishers springing surprise deadline adjustments, also <strike>GAMING JOURNALISM</strike> the vagaries of unflinching whores.

I'm open to any new type of RPG but I have the feeling that this is just Feargus saying "money in the bank."

What would be weird is having the south park RPG being more of an RPG than any of the latest ones.

WTF?!? A company whose strong suit is one that most likely will be worked on by the staff writers at SP Studios developing a "RPG" of a show that's mainstream? This can't end well, can it?

Also, Mr. Sigh, in addition to what Blargh said (which is in a "rien à dire" league of its own), I'd like to make it a quelque chose à dire and add that you should try Skyrim on a PC if you think Obsidian makes buggy games.

Also also, stop using apostrophes when writing plurals.



EDIT - Quiz time: Was there ever a french Dacker in the history of history?

Susan is French-Canadian I think. That has to count.

This site really went down the shitter. Too bad.

I like girls with big vaginas!

a south park rpg sounds pretty terrific to me NOT.



i could have got behind a venture bros. or archer game but not really as a funny game doesnt exist

Ya, I haven't really found a game that was absolutely funny when it was trying to be. I remember Conker's Bad Fur Day tried but it didn't really make me laugh out loud.

The only funny stuff in games i when you hit something and they fly up in teh air 100 feet. That is true comedy.

Saints Row 3 is hilarious and trying to be. Sadly, it's the first purposely funny game to come out since various point and click adventure games in the 90s.

Who needs teh funnies in gaemz when you got a site full of cat vidyas? What we need is moar gritteh rEAliZm, ye hear? But the Portals did their share. Also, being a dick in AP.

How does a canadian that's actually canadian count as french?

It has French in the title. That's good enough for the bean counters.

The whole premise is funny enough, and the industry has been a joke for quite a while now. It's pointless actually playing the games, when just reading about the next innovative project actually gives you more entertainment overall, with less time wasted.
