Some licenses just don't know when to give up on the videogame world. After punishing gamers with the likes of South Park Rally and South Park: Chef's Luv Shack, the television show rightly took a breather from the interactive entertainment business. Now, thanks to Microsoft and studio Doublesix, it has returned, this time on the Xbox Live Arcade. And quite naturally, it's come in the form of a tower defense game. Wait, what? Toss another game that doesn't quite make use of the South Park license in any logical way on the ever growing pile.
Over the last 25 years, there has been a fair few South Park games, and here GameSpew has ranked them all from best to worst.
We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago.

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.
Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.
From karting to RPGs, there's been quite a few South Park games over the last 20 years. Here they all are, ranked from worst to best.
