I have it preordered, but while Amazon charged my card, they haven't sent me a shipping notification. I dunno what's going on. :(

Maybe Trey Parker and Matt Stone stepped in (AGAIN) to make more last minute tweaks :|

I am going to pick it up at Gamestop on my way home I think. I saw the preview yesterday and was shocked to realize I couldn't tell the difference between the game and the episode I was watching.

Seen a couple vids, and will probably watch Jesse Cox's playthrough, but I'm not a HUGE South Park fan...

From what I've seen, if you like the show, it's a great game for you

With all the delays and the european censorship, this game should be amazing. With the show's content you know Trey and Matt are gamers, so hopefully that translated to a high quality game.

I started playing it a few days ago and it's pretty hilarious. I'm sure the EU also censored a few surprises you get when trying to barge into random people's homes.

Game seems to be 10-12 hours, and ATM I don't really see any replay value, but it's fun. Combat is extremely similar to Super Mario RPG. I couldn't avoid playing as a Jew and learning Jew-Jitsu.

I didn't have any issues farting but I have read of games with buggy controls.

Took me 1/2 an hour to get past the stupid fart demo. But this game is too fun to let that keep me from enjoying the rest of it.

I am playing through as a thief. Not sure I will go through it again but I might consider it. Does anyone know if your character perks also apply to your party member?

Spoiler:
AL GORE IS FREAKING HARD!!!

Finished, I'd vote it GOTY. Production value was awesome.

I could do without the stupid controller minigames. The timing-based attack and defense is gimmicky but tolerable, but the farting is just **** retarded.
