Show Notes

Come on down to South Park, and meet a crappy game.

In the late 90's, South Park was a cultural phenomenon. Annoying kids like me lived off Cartman impersonations, "You Killed Kenny" t-shirts were everywhere, and parents were horrified by this crew of foul mouthed children. And like anything good and awesome, we needed a videogame. 

Enter South Park: The Game. A port of the 1998 N64 game of the same name and design, the 1999 PS1 version took a barely average 1st person "shooter" and thrust into the hands of unsuspecting hands of early South Park fans. The result is a nearly unplayable mess made more frustrating by a sprinkling of good ideas and flavor. Does this game stay on our shelf or does it get chucked into the bin? Join me and ducksindisguise as we spend a half hour reminiscing about the game, the show, and impact it continues to have on popular culture.
