DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Microsoft proudly announced a South Park-themed game was coming exclusively to Xbox Live Arcade at E3 2008, but no details on the game have been released since. The project isn't dead, though; in fact, it's being revealed at Comic-Con and Microsoft's let the cat out of the bag a little early while outlining their lineup. The game's called South Park Let's Go Tower Defense Play! No, we're not joking. South Park Let's Go Tower Defense Play! will launch on Xbox Live Arcade on October 7, coinciding with the debut of new South Park episodes on Comedy Central. Few other details are available, but simply knowing the genre provides some pretty distinct possibilities for the game. http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/697554/T...rthefeed-697554 Terrible name, but hopefully the game is good :) Knew they were gonna release for the 2nd half of the season.

LOC Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Uh, ok.....a South Park tower defense game. Interesting. I just hope to the high heavens it doesn't actually look like the cartoon. I'd rather play a 20 year old NES game then play something that looks like that horribly animated show (and yes I know, that's the charm of the show). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like the style that's another point, it's not gonna please everyone. south park is old an boring now, i grew out of S.P when i was like 18 Taking your age into account here (27/8?) that was a long time ago and the show has gone strangth to strenght since it first went on air. When was the last time you two actually watched the show :p It doesn't sound at all like it was recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Eh. The show looks the same to me now as it did back when it first started. Sure the show LOOKS better, but it still looks the same. Eh, that's confusing. Just go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Ok you're talking about the art style then :p Life would be pretty boring if every animated show looked like Simpsons, Family Guy, *insert generic american cartoon*. Think Different ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Ugh I hate the way the Simpsons looks. Never watch Family Guy so can't comment. The only show I thought had a great style and look was Futurama. Especially the 3D-ish spots they did sometimes. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 LOC, you really confuse me sometimes lol. You do know Simpsons and Futurama are pretty much the same people right? It's a team which broke off from Simpsons that wanted to do something "geekier". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massiveterra Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 south park is old an boring now, i grew out of S.P when i was like 18 I really don't want to take this off-topic but slow down here... south park is one of the funniest and smartest social/political satire shows on TV for the past 10+ years Back on topic --- yo how funny would it be if you needed to control the game using a golden PSP?

Gotenks98 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Some of you people act like there is some much good stuff on tv to watch. Most of the good shows have gotten the axe either after a few episodes or after 1 season, some are lucky to get 2 seasons. I think its good that SP has lasted this long. They have touched on a ton of funny and series subjects over the years. The best episode was Trapped in the Closet which was a parody of the R.Kelly 20 something part video.

Minimoose Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 One reason why southpark is animated in that way is that each show can be made quickly and keep up with recent news. Personally I don't think the way it looks is good or bad, it just functions well enough for the dialogue to make me laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 21, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2009 Yup, each episode is created in 6 days (it might actually be 5 and a half). The 7th day is the only time they have off before they go straight back into the writing process and come up with the new episodes. They record all the voices in one day too with minimal retakes cause they nail it first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
