Plus XP: South Park: The Stick of Truth preview

Garvaos from Plus XP writes: "Despite the popularity of the Tv series, none of the existing South park games have been greatly successful. Maybe it is because they have strayed away from the 2D feel of the original animation, or maybe it’s because game play wise they just generally haven’t been that great. One thing is clear though, overall they just haven’t quite hit the mark. Things may be set to change however as new South park game is in the horizon, South park: The Stick of Truth.

We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago. It's their IP they can sell out, of course; it just means the quality of their show has tanked and other products as well. Nevertheless, they put on excellent musicals, but those haven't been sold to a mega corporation.

They said awhile ago that Ubisoft holds contract rights to the main flagship South Park games. So like stick, fractured and phone destroyer.

Snow Day was handled by THQ and Question and is a random spinoff. Hopefully Ubisoft is cooking something.

That's one reason to be hopeful, but Ubi is trending down too.

Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.

The only two worth playing are Stick of truth and fractured but whole. The rest were garbage except snow day which I can't say anything about yet. But with that said, unlike stick and fractured which debuted as AAA full priced titles by ubisoft, snow day is a new developer and publisher and has a budget price at only $30 soooo
