First HD Episode of South Park


Recommended Posts

Exactly - It feels so cold to be a European Xbox 360 owner, we got none of the fun stuff via Marketplace.

Same here in Australia, we get none of that stuff either :(

It just means HD resolution not fine details in south park. Its not like the animators will take the paper cut-out look a bit further and have a paper grain surface :)

Since cartoons are done with computers (easy to color) going moving to HD will be easy.

I know--that's exactly my point. Where's the benefit of having the increased resolution if the detail isn't there to be exposed better?

Meh...I guess I'll just have to wait and see for myself...

Annoying it won't be available in the UK... wake up Microsoft.

Wake up yourself, you DO know UK isnt the only other country besides the US, right? :D

You have two options

1. Change your region code to USA and have access to the free download

2. Go to xbox.com, register a new gamertag that is in America, log into it via your 360, download the free episode (and anything else you want that is region specific) and then you can download it.

There have been times where demos are not released in America, so I made a european and a japanese profile so I could download/play them

I really hope that everyone complaining about "microsoft" not releasing this on marketplace realizes that they're not in control of which regions content like this gets released in. If you want to blame someone, blame Viacom, the owners of Comedy Central. You can blame them for more than not getting south park in the UK/Rest of the World (youtube videos anyone?).

On a happier note, this is one of my favorite episodes of Southpark (I think it may even be better than Make Love Not Worldcraft). Just because of what they do to Butters alone is worth getting it. And I can't wait til the new season starts next week too :D

Thats a question of how much cash MS is willing to spend :D They should just buy all movie studios like they buy all game studios..

So you dont have the black vertical bars on your widescreen TV when you look at a 4:3 tv show or stretching the image to 16:9 giving people that chubby face look.

I think he meant South Park itself - doesnt matter if it is HD, it will still look ugly as **** :p

Those thinking it can't look any better, go take a look at the HD Trailer for The Simpson's movie. Seems like a good analogy, and the Simpson's in HD look way better than in SD.

Those of you UK'ers moaning about the fact we have none of the TV shows and stuff on Live Marketplace, it's quite difficult for Microsoft to do that kind of thing over here becasue there are quite a lot of people who own the rights to a particular program taking South Park as an example, Sky One own the rights to some series as do Channel 4 then there's MTV and Paramount and getting all these companies to agree on something is quite difficult.

I believe that's the reason why we haven't got the Video Marketplace with TV Shows yet anyway.
