From what we’ve heard of the upcoming South Park RPG, it’s in good hands. From what we can now see of it in action, that feeling remains unchanged.
A big batch of screenshots for the game showed up over the weekend, most of them showing what looks like battle gameplay. The whole kids-playing-dress-ups-only-with-real-magic thing looks awesome, and the way its being all video gamey but still retaining South Park’s trademark visual style looks awesome.
South Park should be out towards the end of the year on PC, PS3 and 360.

Tuesday, January 10, 2012 at 8:13 AMThis is my favorite show, and I really do hope that they don’t mess it up with a below par video game. But from what I’ve heard, its in reasonably good hands and everyone has high hopes for it!
