Trey Parker and Matt Stone have never been shy about their love of gaming. From Randy Marsh playing Guitar Hero in his underpants to the legendary "Make Love, Not Warcraft" episode, the comic duo have demonstrated an obvious familiarity with the medium. Now that they've conquered television, film, and Broadway, the next target on their hit list is the gaming industry.

Thanks to a collaboration with THQ and Obsidian, Parker and Stone are writing the script, performing the dialogue, and overseeing the development of South Park: The Game. Unlike the cash-in Acclaim titles from over a decade ago, this ambitious project is a full-scale RPG for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC. As the new kid in South Park, it'll be up to you to make friends and defend the town from a wide range of threats. Be sure to check out our January issue for all the details, as well as an interview with Parker and Stone themselves.

I'm interested to see where this goes. I'm wondering when we'll see a trailer.

If it's a massive RPG mixed with a similar style as The Simpsons Game, I could see it working out pretty well. For what it is

Kotaku said their early impressions with the info, screens, and video made the game feel closer to Paper Mario in terms of direction and style but with South Park characters, blood, and cursing.

The game is lampooning RPGs, in which many guys play female characters.

I am torn on this. Seems kind of a weird idea, but RPG culture getting the South Park treatment could be fucking amazing.

I feel like this would be more fun as a movie, but it really has my attention as a "Unique" game.
