Holy Balls. How are you supposed to beat
? He has 5k+ hp and 506(!) armor at level 10. If he'd be alone, I'd manage, but the adds he brings in are killing me in the long run.

One is at the bustop location, you can walk behind the tree to another area. 3 or so are in the sewer, one at kennies and another one is inside the u-store bus.

Ok, who here has in their first 5 minutes of playing the game, tried relentlessly to take a shit in the toilet but fail every time? This game is amazing.

So many places near me are sold out. Got last PS3 copy at 3rd place I tried. Booting now.

I'm on that one right now. Not sure what I'm doing wrong :/
EDIT: Got it. Was just a terrible explanation on how to do it in-game.

Anyone have any suggestions with the Abortion Mini Game? I fail the second part every time going on 30 minutes here. It gives little instruction. Just rotate a stick. I have tried to be gentle, tried rotating fast, all result in fail.

Rotate as fast as you can, make sure it's counter clockwise.
I do have to wonder what they were thinking with these "tutorials/minigames" especially since they have no bearing on how the moves are actually used. That wouldn't be so bad I suppose if it wasn't for the fact that they are not fun at all and are quite frustrating. I'm actually glad it isn't just me. I failed the first farting tutorial about 8 times and I felt like an idiot.

Played it for about an hour and a half, an yeah, if you are interested in South Park in the slightest you need to get this game. It actually looks like you are playing an episode on TV, looks that good. Its like Arkham, the first awesome Batman game, this is the first awesome South Park game. I did get a bug in the tutorial though, at one point I couldn't select an attack at all, I had to reload a save. While I do notice stutter, its not that bad, specially if you don't run, or when its auto saving. Playing on PS3.

I have been so hyped since the gameplay footage started rolling out and I still cannot
believe how fucking good this game is. It is immersion on an entirely other level. I am in a South Park episode. Never has a game been such a perfect 1:1 of a license ever. The look, the writing, the humor, even the way the combat plays out all feels right. When I see screen shots of people's characters I am just seeing the show, not the game. It is great stuff. I can't wait to sink even more time in. Love it so far.
Edit: on PC @1080p 120hz there isn't the slightest tear or blur or anything. Just rock solid.

I remember IGN's review pointing the lack of replayability due to the nonspecialized equips and jack-of-all-trades customization.
Still, it sounds mostly everyone is enduring the bugs so the good outweighs the bad. How long until the next patch I wonder?

Last game I played on PS3 that had it was Nier (maybe others--don't have a lot of people telling me if I do or not, lol). I know there are other games that do it, but not a lot that do. Here's a relevant thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=416710

Thanks for the help. That was pissing me off. Guess I just didn't go fast enough.

Is there any way to turn off all the annoying intro screens that pop up before the title screen on PC in the ini or anything? It is obnoxious that you cannot skip them (at least to my knowledge).
About halfway.
Holy... this game is awesome!
Impulse purchased it tonight and I'm glad of it. This looks like a riot.
GMG still has a launch-day discount of $15 for those on the fence. Code VRW14X-M2YVEU-B0C9OT
Can't believe I was worried about this running on my laptop. I've an older i7 with a GT 330m and it's fantastic at the laptop's native resolution of 1366 x 768.
I've been charging through a backlog lately and it's started to feel like work. This is just what I need--laugh-out-loud fun!

I'm loving this game. Actually one of the most enjoyable RPGs in quite a while for me. It kind of reminds me of a Mother/Paper Mario game in some ways, which is just fantastic.

mash the button like crazy, took me 2 tries but I think thats all there is to it
Only played a couple hours, but I'm already loving this game. Haven't had any bugs yet (on PC). Really love all the little South Park touches everywhere; all the items you pick up, rooms you can go in, songs that play in stores, etc. The ambient dialogue has been great too, walking into the bank and having Butters shout "Alright motherfuckers, everyone down on the floor! I want all the money in a bag...oh hey Bebe, how's it going?"

I noticed that in
dresser, he had an Alabama Man doll. I remember that from the Chinpokomon episode.
Fighting games do that a lot. It usually says that they're playing arcade mode, online mode, etc. A few shooters as well. I know BF and COD shows what map your on online, and what level your on single player as well.

ARGH this fucking farting mini-game/fake tutorial. I keep failing the third one.
Edit: Got it done, what a terrible way they explained it.

Are you guys reffering to the first farting tutorial?
I think?
Personally I had no issues with that BUT I actually failed the guarding tutorial haha, I have alot of experience with DMC3 and other action/fighting games with parry or just inputs so I was trying to 'just' frame it, turned out you gotta guard super early as opposed to that.

Could only put a few hours into it and I like the whole charm and atmosphere of the game. The battle sequences are pretty yawn worthy where I am thus far...hopefully it'll pick up.

I think the scaling in this game is really strange. Like some attacks are purely percentage based I'm fairly certain.

Goddamn this game is so much fun. Love the battle system as I knew I would, also love finding all the random junk and trinkets that are references to old episodes.
By far, though, my favorite moments have been the times where they've poked fun at the video games and used the game format to make really great jokes. My favorite two moments so far: (I just finished the first day in South Park, so spoilers for the first whole day)
Gotta go to bed now, but can't wait to keep playing this tomorrow.

The "Hold B to Skip" prompt for Jimmy had me rolling on the floor laughing. Just completely lost it. And then later the audio logs in the spaceship were great. Absolute top-notch parody of the audio log craze in video games now.

EDIT:
Do you have a stun attack? I used Jew-Jitsu to stop him, don't know if the other classes have a similar attack that creates Stun.

Mug him if you can.
Thanks but downloading it isn't an option for me, prefer to find the physical copy. Cheers for your time typing that out. =)

Played for about 2hrs looking around... loving the game so far!
I did one side mission so far.
I have about 9 friends now.
Oh, and this is a question for people who are far into the game... have you had to do any grinding to get past any areas? Or are you just fighting and moving on?

I had to get the iPad for Kevin, and now he is my friend

So there is an instance where you have to tap "A" really fast to get further in the game. I can't do it!! I can't tap fast enough! Anyone else have this issue?

I managed to do it once (on a 360 gamepad) and then gave up. It's almost impossible for my 45yr old hands to manage.

I haven't had to do any grinding so far and haven't lost a single battle yet, but I'm only through the first day so I don't know how bad the difficulty ramps up later.
