New South Park deal could mean new South Park games…
Trey Parker and Matt Stone have signed an agreement with Comedy Central that will keep the duo at the network until 2011. So why should we care? Because part of the new agreement includes a clause that mentions possible video games in the future.
In a joint venture that involves millions in up-front cash and a 50-50 split of ad revenues, the network and the two creative partners have agreed to create a hub to spread “South Park”-related material across the Net, mobile platforms, and video games.
Between South Park, South Park Rally, and Chef’s Luv Shack, it’s safe to say that South Park has had a rough go of it as far as video games go. Hell, I remember playing the original South Park game on the N64 back in my youth, and thinking of how cool it was that I could pelt turkeys with iceballs made out of my piss… I was a dumb ass child.
God, let there be no more South Park games! …however, appearances of characters with strikingly similar names to Kenny, Kyle, Stan and Cartman inside the next WoW expansion WILL be acceptable.

That first N64 one that was on the Turok engine was actually good. It had many flaws, but fixable flaws. More variety of enemies and take out the fog (much like Turok had)

I used to love those games, but the Turok-engine South Park game is not one that has aged well. I tried playing it just the other day, and I turned it off after about five minutes.
