South Park: The Stick of Truth Reviews
It was never a waste of time playing South Park: The Stick Of Truth. In all honesty, I barely finish RPG games because of the small patience I have in accomplishing a game. But this one is worth it. With all the toilet humor and the most stupid logical thinking of the townspeople in South Park makes The Stick Of Truth a fun game to still play today.
"South Park: The Stick of Truth takes the best aspects of the long-running TV series, molding it into a well-executed game. In combining the two mediums, Obsidian Entertainment leaves us with one of the most enjoyable South Park episode in years."
For fans of the series, South Park: Stick of Truth is equal parts referential and dirty, dirty fun.
South Park: The Stick of Truth is an immersive , open-world, RPG filled with adventure, flatulence, and that time-tested sense of parody which has kept the show comical for 16 years.
South Park: The Stick of Truth is an outrageous and hilarious ride!
South Park: The Stick of Truth may as well be an achievement. The soul of the show is captured perfectly with its visuals, consistently funny writing and ridiculous scenarios. It also happens to be damn fun to play. After the 13 hours it took me to complete it, all I've been able to think about since is going back to it to find every lost collectible and missed achievement. If you've ever enjoyed South Park, then you absolutely need to own this game.
South Park: The Stick of Truth is not the greatest game that Obsidian could have created, but it is so faithful to the universe on which it is based that any fan will be delighted to experience the new stories, the new gags, the new take on familiar characters, and the impressive way in which the quiet mountain town is brought to virtual life.
The Stick of Truth may be a little light on challenging gameplay, but the simple yet fun RPG mechanics, coupled with writing that matches the TV series in satiric gold, makes this the best South Park game you'll play for a very, very long time.
Buy it, love it, play it again with a different buddy, but always remember - never fart on another man's balls. Okay? Good, we're done.
South Park: The Stick Of Truth is finally here and the result? Easily the funniest video game ever made.
Obsidian nail South Park with one of the most faithful license adaptations ever - and make a cracking RPG to boot.
If you hate South Park, you won't like this. If you're in the middle or love the show, this is the RPG for you.
South Park: The Stick of Truth is a fantastic game, which perfectly captures the essence of its inspiration. A lot of hard work went into crafting this passion project of an RPG, and it shows.
Obsidian Entertainment delivers one of its best-ever efforts in South Park: The Stick of Truth, even if the game doesn't quite stick the landing.
If it were just five or more hours longer in content, South Park: The Stick of Truth would have struck the perfect balance between writing, gameplay, humor, and length. Not since Earthbound and Super Mario RPG: The Legend of the Seven Stars has there been a turn-based RPG with such a distinct style and with so many memorable moments.
Stick of Truth is South Park's Arkham Asylum--a triumph of a licensed game that manages to fit in line with the franchise while paving new ground in gaming. In this case, the new ground is dick jokes--still, innovation is innovation.
A fun, polished, handcrafted RPG attached to a genuinely funny 15-hour-long South Park episode.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone lead the way on the South Park video game we've always wanted.
Genuine comedy in video games is a rare find in today's gaming landscape of hyper-realistic shooters and pretentious fantasy realms. It's refreshing to have a game that is consistently hilarious, but also has gameplay chops. I hope that Matt Stone and Trey Parker continue with the path of video game writing. They could offer a lot to this industry. But I can't blame them for going out at the top of their game.
