I know some lady gamers who will be very happy about this

Double_O_Revan2881d ago

PC Principal is happy about this.

I'm a girl gamer and tbh I'm rather indifferent...though it is nice to see more wendy this time; someone who was criminally underused in stick of truth :)

Pongwater2881d ago

Yeah some care more than others about extensive customization. I prefer being able to make whatever character I want, especially in an RPG, but it's not exactly a deal breaker if I can't. Agreed about Wendy. I loved Stick of Truth but I felt several characters got the short end of the stick, so to speak.

TricksterArrow2881d ago

In the first one it kinda made sense why you couldn't be a girl, since they had their own storyline in the game. But if this one is less about the factions and more about adventure itself, it should be funny to play through the game twice to see the differences.

Reminded me of the makeover part of stick of truth. So dumb lol. With PC principal in the mix it should be fantastic. I preordered just to get a copy of stick of truth on ps4. Been playing for 2 days.

OldGuyStillGaming2881d ago

Is Stick of Truth a definitive edition or something like that?

I still haven't found it on X1 .. Just says coming soon

I'll just have to get it for PS4 if it doesn't show up on X1

Unfortunately you have to preorder and pre-pay for The Fractured But Whole to be able to download The Stick of Truth.

It's BC I believe. It's not remastered or anything. Go get a cheap 360 version. Double check that tho.

ZombieGamerMan2881d ago

I'm happy for this since I wanted to play as a girl in TSoT however are you not suppose to be playing as the same New Kid? Would be odd considering New Kid was a boy, anyway not sure if I'll role play a girl or as a cross dresser like I was in TSoT

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.

anast43d ago

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 7 Best South Park Games

The South Park series has somehow managed to stay relevant for over 25 years, but which are the best games based on the TV show?

cammers1995150d ago (Edited 150d ago )

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

Best Superhero Video Games Available Right Now

From Xfire: "A lot of video games are designed to make players feel like a superhero. However, very few actually feature superheroes or have players take on the role of a superhero. What makes this even worse is that there are even fewer superhero video games that can be considered good."
