First the Thief threads, now this. Derrick is almost a meme at this point.

I will get the PC version. It looks like a fun game too boot when chilling at home from work.

And fantastic work with the interview. Just awesome!

Had to go and ruin the OT for my most anticipated game in years by plastering Derrick all over it huh?

Edit: CTRL+F derrick, yep 40 results in less than 2 pages.

Great OT. I definitely have to give this game some heavy considering. 34,90€ for physical PC copy is tempting.

Fantastic thread title, post and Q&A.

Wonder what % of people that buy the game will be playing a Jew first playthrough.

Would like a final confirmation of the length. Either way can't wait. Been sitting in my Steam library for a while now!

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
I never even watch South Park, but all I've seen made me preorder on principle alone. It's just such a pitch-perfect recreation of the show, and I've liked some of the show I've seen over the years even if I don't care about watching. And in Chris Avellone we trust.

I keep forgetting that this game is coming out D:
Must buy for me though since the battle system is being compared to Paper Mario, and of course because I love SP.
 
Hilarious OT. Well done.

I'm stoked for this. Love South Park and they seem to have nailed the look and feel of the show perfectly.
 
This title is terrible. It's pretty bad when fucking Donkey Kong has a better title than South Park.

Anyway I'm in for PS3. Hoping it's 1080p and Dualshock 4 compatible.

So looking forward to this game, I was tempted to freeze myself, but I can't be arsed dealing with the science be dammed AAA otters.

Who is derrick? Some forum princess or something?

A pseudo-elite poster who was overshadowed by his reputation to the point it got him banned (more than a few times), but also now a special spot on a OT subtitle.

To me, he is an example of a forum phenomenon where if one sticks to a position (primarily a negative one, since there is a bias towards negativity) long enough, people will shift the overall environment so as to make that person a pillar of the discussion, i.e., elevating their reputation and input without requiring them to also provide some construction to go along with their destruction. I mean to say, someone can repeat "this is bad, I don't like it", dressed up with some bandwagon-ish terms, over and over again, and it will eventually be legitimized as the yang to the fans' ying. For example, if you were reading Metal Gear Rising (or Yakuza, etc.) threads you may remember one certain poster who constantly crapped on the game, thread after thread, with mostly superficial or poorly supported thoughts; despite never saying anything of substance (or to be more generous, anything anyone responded positively to or was challenged by), that poster was naturally name dropped constantly.

For Derrick this happened to such a degree where his mere presence would derail threads of multiple topics.

Love the FAQ.

Currently going through Paper Mario: TTYD in anticipation to this... I need to get the biggest contrast in setting I can get. :p
