South Park role playing game set for 2012

South Park: The Game is a full-scale role playing game for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC developed by Obsidian Entertainment which has a loose release date for sometime late in 2012, some skeptics are even saying it may not be until 2013. Either-way if you’re not familiar with Obsidian they are the makers of role playing video games like Fallout: 2.

There is a great deal of the games creative direction directly coming from Matt Stone and Trey Parker it was important for them to make sure the game follows the look and feel of the orignal South Park cartoon that you see on Comedy Central. Yet giving the player(s) the options to control what the characters do into the video-game. As “the new kid” you will have to make friends and defend the town from a wide range of threats through out South Park.

Game Informer did an excellent in-depth interview with Chris Parker and Feargus Urquhart form Obsidian it’s a must read for any South Park fan. The game looks super exciting and I can’t wait to play it!
