Almost every review saying it's the funniest game ever made. To be, that's the most important aspect of South Park game and it seems they nailed it. Can't wait to pick it up.

Obsidian missing the bonus again
Destructoid 8/10 - by Chris Carter
Played it for about 3 hours so far.
Game is hilarious. The customization options are astounding. The critics that say the game is easy are right so far. But the combat is constantly fun.
So it probably isn't the longest or deepest rpg you will ever play. But if you want something to make you laugh, it seems like this is a great bet

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Great reviews so far.
I hope this game succeeds HARD !

Sounds like Obsidian Obsidian'd again. I'm sold.
They are gonna be pissed lol.
However... This is as close to a 4 as it is to a 10.
I cant wait to read some of these and see who called them out on some humor,

Gamespot does it again. They never cease to amaze me. I'm fairly sure I'm going to love this game. I never expected anything deep or terribly difficult; this is a fanservice game pure and simple.

What's funny is that this is their most polished game if you ask me. I had some very minor bugs on the PC version at least.

Wish I found Southpark funny, been watching PewDiePie play through some of it and it looks like a solid game. Hate not having anything to play.
Rev3Games review - 3/5
From what I'm reading.. It really does seem like their most polished title.
(Finished jim's review as well as IGN so far)

I ran into zero bugs my first time through on the Ps3 version, but the stuttering thing is real. It seems to happen when the game is checkpointing as you enter an area.
This one surprised me.
I assumed it was going to be lower.
Rev3 was exactly what i expected however.
PC Gamer gave it a 90

"It’s surprising, surreal, packed with jokes, and rarely frustrating. I didn’t get bored once across the 17 hours it took me to finish the story and most of the sidequests, and it kept me laughing consistently until the credits. If that isn’t worth 90%, I don’t know what is."

Very intriguing. I had no idea PewDiePie fans had standards!

Obsidian's most polished game is still a disaster to most devs. They make fun games but goddamn their QA is right up there with the worst of the worst. Excited to rent this a couple months from now when it works... Hopefully...

Shame they didn't get it under 10h but hopefully it will still be fun all the way.

My issues only ever required a quick re-load from last checkpoint which was never very far. Only happened like 1-3 times.

a great south park game woooo
Yeah, it's nothing amazing but it's a solid score and if that's the lowest South Park gets then it pretty much nailed it. Heck, the end of the review pretty much just cautions it's not some second coming of RPGs (though I think most level headed people knew that with more of a hope of the first truly great South Park licensed game) but that it's a fun adventure.
... though his avatar kind of taints his posts anyway, haha.

eh...open world games by nature are more prne to bugs, so will still wait to see if this game has a lot of bugs. in past obsidian games it is quite understandable given the type of games they make.

Is it wrong to be slightly pleased by some of the low scores? I mean those are the same guys that rated NV lower than F3 (well mostly)
Fucking perfect.
That's bullshit. Obsidian's most polished game so far is Dungeon Siege 3, and it's extremely solid QA wise by any standard.
We've got many videos from the PC version, along with our impressions, up:

Glad to see the game scoring so well across (most of) the board
Sadly Dungeon Siege 3 has to be their most boring game.
