i really just want a definitive answer on how long it takes to finish the game.
i saw the rev3games 12h statement, yet thats pretty damn short for an rpg.
i was hoping it would be 30h+.
If you liked the humour in the demo and you're up for a Paper Mario-esque RPG, I'd say go for it. Maybe watch a few South Park episodes to get familiar with the main characters, they're all freely available here.I never watch the show but seriously I enjoyed the 13 minutes gameplay
should I buy this game? What do you guys think?

Good suggestion. Also is a perfect summation of the kind of humour the show goes for as a whole. If you can get into these episodes you'll be able to get into the series and vice versa.i would suggest to a new south park viewer who wants to get this game is just to just watch the black friday episodes that aired a little while back. theres 3 of em. the game launches off of that idea.

There's actually a sizable number of episodes that revolve around videogames, among those I would suggest:This was my favorite part :
You entered douchbag , is that correct?
(Player select) NO
Are you sure you want keep the name douchbag?
(Player select) NO
Very well douchbag ...
LOL
Can you give me a list of good episodes? because I really like to watch the show but the number of episodes are 246 ! and I don't have time to watch all of them
I wouldn't trust rev3games statement. He said he only played 2hrs, and his exact quote was "I heard it was 12hrs."
I'm gonna wait for some reviews before I start questioning the length. The length of this game is something I really want to know as well. While the game looks good, it's no point if the game is 12hrs long. It's an RPG, so it should be quite lengthy.
Man I remember when SouthPark first came out. Haven't really watched much after season 3. I did catch the imaginationland trilogy and that was amazing.
Personally I really like the loose silliness of the older series, though I think the show was at its best seasons 4-8 or so, with sporadic good episodes afterwards. It's patchy lately, but I enjoyed World War Zimmerman from the latest season.You're like most people. Most people just bought in to the initial South Park fad for the first two or three years of the show and the movie. Then once the hype died down most people stopped watching. Which is a shame because those early years of the show were easily the shows worst seasons imo.
Watched the gameplay vids of this pewdieguy - game just went up to #1 on my must-get list in March.
Same, can´t wait.
Anybody knows when the review embargo lifts?
Jason Schreier from Kotaku thinks it's March 4th. You can find his post somewhere in this thread here.
It is March 4, at 1201 PST
am/midnight?

That site also has a random button, so if you don't have time to watch them all just watch a random one when you have time. Any episodes from season 1-5 are worth watching.
There's actually a sizable number of episodes that revolve around videogames, among those I would suggest:
Guitar Queer-o (Season 11)
Go God Go 1 and 2 (Season 10, it's a two parter)
Make love not Warcraft (Season 10)
Chinpokomon (Season 3)
so I'd start from those and the Black Friday trilogy people already mentioned, since, in fact, the videogame seems to start off from its ending.
Pretty much all episodes from Season 5 to 12 are great and representative of the current cast of characters (Cartman's personality changed quite a bit from Season 1 to 5, for instance, and some key characters, such as Randy and Butters, weren't really heavily featured), so you can do no wrong really! I would avoid the last 2-3 seasons for now as they're more of a hit and miss, some episodes there are actually pretty damn bad.
Is the Okama Gamesphere in the game?

If we're recommending episodes you have to check the following out
Imaginationland trilogy
Woodland Critter's Christmas
Scott Tenorman Must Die
Underpants Gnomes
Coon and Friends trilogy
Warcraft
Youtube Memes
Manbearpig
Cartmanland is a must watch too
Casa Bonita is the best episode ever. You can't skip that.

Yeah, contrary to what many posters here have been saying, I believe that the first couple season were easily the worst overall. Season 5 is where things really started to pick up (I believe the Scott Tenorman episode is from that season) then in seasons 7 and 8 you really couldn't miss; just about EVERY episode was great.
More recently I'm not sure if they've quite lived up to the lofty 7-8 heights, but I still think it's generally better than the early seasons.

I've been re-watching a lot of the old ones and I'd agree 1-2 are probably the worst seasons. There are a lot of episodes that just don't hold up well since they're almost strictly shock humor.
I think thats because Matt and Trey were still figuring out what they wanted the show to be. For me, Season 3 + the movie is where things pick up, s3 still has some stinkers but I think that its a def step up from 1+2. Knowing that they've been working on this game for 4 years, I wonder how much of an effect has that had on these last few seasons.
I remember hearing somewhere that many South Park songs are supposed to be featured somehow in the game. Or did I dream that?
I hope this one makes an appearance.
Fucking Trey Parker, he's so talented.

Sweet.Well from that game play videothere is a radio in Cartman's room which apparently plays some songs. The one we heard was "too many minorities in my waterpark".
So there's at least one song anyway.

I just noticed that I basically stopped watching the show before they introduced Butters. But man he's hilarious.
I want to see this guy in the game:

I think it's very possible.
