As a South Park fan, I decided to take this game in my hands and review it.

Full name: South Park
Creator: Appaloosa Interactive
Publisher: Acclaim
Year: 1999
Genre: First Person Shooter
Platform: Nintendo 64, Playstation 1 and PC


Objective: A comet is headed to strike on Earth. The town to be victimized: South Park, Colorado. It's up to the 4 kids, Stan, Kyle, Eric (AKA Cartman) and Kenny To get rid of the crazy things that the comet is doing to the town.


Graphics (7/10): N64 + PC: They are pretty good and they almost represent correctly South Park graphics in 3D, Same for the PC Version. PS1: Less better than the N64's and PC's version, but the system was 32-bit, so yeah.
The graphics in the FMV's are pretty good, though.

Sound (9/10): N64: The music is pretty good for an N64 game and fits South Park pretty much. PS1 + PC: Best Sounding music of all the ports, no questions asked.

Gameplay (6/10): You'll eventually get bored and the fact that the game has cheats and a level select cheat too, You'll pretty much end up beating the game in mere seconds. I'm not saying that the cheats are making the game bad, but only 5 episodes of about 3-4 segments. C'mon, now... it could've been longer, like what? 14 Episodes? *13-14 Episodes = An entire season* Yeah, that would've been better.

Replayability (2/10): The game has cheats and you'll get bored quickly, too. 5 episodes of 3-4 segments is WAAAAAAAAAY too short.

Controls (9/10): On the PS1 Version, you can configure the controls like you want them, exactly like the PC version I guess. On the N64 Version, You had 2 preset control schemes.

Overall (4/10): If you want to play this game badly, DON'T buy it, RENT it. This sucks a lot that this is the only adventure South Park game we got, and the sequel planned for 2000 got cancelled. Same for the GBC Version because Matt Stone and Trey Parker (The 2 minds behind the show) felt the game wasn't for kids *coughcough*ESRB and PEGI*coughcough*. Let's hope that "South Park: Let's Go Tower Defense Play!" for XBLA (Xbox Live Arcade) can make up for it.

I still have this for PS1, and it's truly boring. The first episode is white plain after white plain, with a bunch of alien turkeys you have to throw snowballs at.

Various spelling errors were in that review, so I took the time to fix them. Next time you write a review, please do not randomly capitalise words and never use the ampersand (&) as a substitute for "and". Using that in sentences doesn't make them look good.

Replaced the ampersands with "and".
Nice review, though.
If you think the world is small, you might have Micropsia.

If you feel the need to click it, do so!

Oh, I though I had got rid of all of the ampersands. I guess I didn't notice the rest of them after I edited his review.
