South Park and Console gaming.

[makattack]

This post is a pure fanboy post. If you're a fan of South Park and all their references to video games, this is the thread for you.

There are just too many episodes to list featuring great tie-ins with video games.

Of course, there's the World of Warcraft episode, but Nintendo, Xbox, Playstations have always been a part of their stories.

I think they're brilliant -- even if they are sponsored or involves industry support (Blizzard are both known to have actively worked with South Park Studios with the WoW episode).

Their website is great, so an easy search for video game turns up most of the clips (and full episodes) you may want to review:

I'm pretty partial to Go God Go XII: Cartman goes into hibernation so he doesn't have to wait for the Wii's release (incidentally, that episode doesn't show up in the search I linked to above):

I really love the start of the Vampire/Twilight episode, where all the kids are playing Call of Duty World at War on the computer lab computers and Mr. Mackey hasn't a clue as he's trying to teach them how to use spreadsheets. Of course, Cartman is spouting racial obscenities as well..........

No the best one is the World of War Craft, were there in the basement getting fat, and Cartman calls his mom down to hold a bedpan to take a sh*t, doesn't even get out of the chair. Kyle with zits all over his face, stan and his dad playing together, kenny, just dieing, just classic.

That was an awesome game.
One of my friends suggested EA make a real fighting game based on the wrasslin' episode

That's a line from the warcraft episode, when the guys are wondering how they can kill that uber player who is killing everyone. The line means that the uber player doesn't have a life, because all he does is play WoW, which probably is a snarky remark to many WoW players :smile:
