REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Matt and Trey Approached Obsidian for South Park: The Game

Posted on Tuesday, December 6 @ 09:14:44 Eastern by

While it'll be interesting, perhaps most of all, to see how South Park: The Game moves and how you interact with things in the world, it's certainly refreshing to hear that a license holder decided on the developer they wanted to work with and have a heavy hand in the development of the game.

That's what's happening with South Park: The Game, Obsidian Entertainment, and Matt Stone and Trey Parker. The creators themselves even went hands-on with the game and were surprised by how much the game itself looked like the paper they work with every week.

When I was at Obsidian for Dungeon Siege III earlier this year, Studio Head Feargus Urquhart was really excited about working with a specific license, but wouldn't say what it was. It might not make sense at first, but something tells me South Park: The Game will be interesting to say the least... buggy, but interesting.

    All the right ingredients seem to be there. I hope this game kicks ass. Hopefully they'll aim for an M (at least) that way they can incorporate all the "foul-mouthedness" and "political-incorrectness" into the game. I can't help but think about Skyrim but with Cartman and the gang whenever I read about this.

    "HOPEFULLY" they'll aim for an M? This is South Park for cuss's sake. I glanced at the Wikipedia list of all the previous South Park Video Games, and everyone of them was rated Mature. There's no way you can water down South Park's content without losing it's reason for existence!

    Well, if you look at the current trend in the entertainment industry, not just games, you'll see that nowadays marketing departments push for less objectionable material. Horror movies are a good example, as most of them tend to be PG13. The under 17 demographic is huge, so it makes no sense from a business point of view to alienate it.
    Now Matt and Trey obviously don't give a fudge about that but the gaming companies involved might not think the same way. This game could easily be AO, so there's bound to be some toning down even if gunning for an M.
