I'd say 20 hours of entertainment is well worth 60 bucks.

When you compare it to the price of a 3 hour movie for $25-$30 bucks it certainly is. you can get 10x the entertainment length for 2-2.5x the price. Pretty solid deal if you get the most out of the game.
Need a new one for a new board...

Which is why playing it any number of times will be worth it. If I can watch episodes of the show 25 times, I can certainly playthrough the story thats 20 hours long numerous times from different angles as well.

Plus how many straight up RPGs have been 60 hours of play time the past 5 years? like 20? only about 5 of which are worth playing through all the way anyways?

Your preaching to the choir I excrement on a few trolls over there

Um no. I have no idea what the freak are you talking about? I posted that originally in the Video Game thread which was being taken over by Microsoft talk.

Some Dutch YouTube user did a Let's Play type video for it. He tried to be funny and fails horribly. It's some lame schtick that has made him a millionaire lol

Prolly the review I'd give if I had the game. Least it sounds like it met my expectations if this holds up. From someone who got it early


I've been watching SP since it came out in the 90s. I love everything about it and think Cartman is truly the most evil character of all time.

With that said I was worried about this game, I wasn't sure how it would hold up to the series standards. I did like the idea of playing as only a new kid and trying to get used to life in SP. I wanted an adventure more like FF than Mario and Luigi Dream Team (or their other DS rpgs) because that's what the combat is like.

I beat the game today... It took about 16 hours total and I made sure to do EVERY side quest I could find. I roamed around the world a lot, had fun and let me say it is a perfect length.

The game itself is hysterical. Tons of in jokes for fans and tons of just balls to the wall jokes they could never get away with on tv.

The games length is perfect. It doesn't go by too fast and you never feel like you have to spend 2 hours grinding. It also is perfect for re-playability to play as other classes. It never feels like a chore to do fetch quests or anything either since its all so funny you are always having a good time.

Overall this could be the best game based on a show/movie ever. I have never played a game and just laughed the entire way through, wanting to talk to everyone multiple times to see what they say next.

Easily this game is a 9/10. I had my doubts at first but man I love this game. Onto my first replay.

IGN gave it a 9/10. Said it was about 14 hours long....

They've mentioned this in their previews before but what's impressive is that you're basically watching that much time worth of episodes. Sure the battles take time, and some exploration but between all the dialog,cutscenes and one liners, it's a lot of work they put in.  SP is usually only 22 minutes long per episode.

Most reviews said it was hilarious throughout.
