            First off, this is a great game.  The fogginess is a little annoying, but other than that, I don't know why it gets such bad reviews.     There are two modes here- story and head to head.  The levels are large, and the enemies are so dumb they're funny.  The sound bytes are are also a riot, especially in two player mode.  In two  player mode, you can battle a friend in one of six arenas, using 20 or so  South Park characters.  The two best, though, are Stan and Kyle.  Oh, and the movies in story mode are also  humorous.  I think they should've used the music from the chef's aid  soundtrack for in game music, though.  The control is very good, but not  superb.  The weapons are also great.    Goldeneye made first-person games popular, and South Park added the humor.

            This game really rocks! ...I enjoyed it very much! Cool graphics, cool characters, and I had a blast with the cow-launchers! For those who like South Park, I suggest you buy this game!

            I just don't get it. I mean, I think this is a pretty good game and that if you don't like it you're only saying that because you can't beat it. The  game delivers most of the South Park characters, (where's Kevin?), and all  the crosshairs possible, but the bright light scenery is dumb. You almost  want to get through levels quick because of the corny music, don't you?  Even though there are quite a few cons, the game is somewhat smart and  leaves you wanting more out of South Park. the creativity needs help but  this is a great game. If you're a real fan, you won't let the cons overcome  the pros and you'll find yourself giving this product good ratings on a  website like amazon.com.

            I have to agree with many of the things already expressed by the other reviewers; like them, I expected so much more from this game.  The graphics don't translate well at all, and the characters are very fuzzy and blurry  in the scenes where you actually see them.  The game play moves and looks a  lot like "Doom," and for anyone who has motion sickness, you'll  play this for 5 minutes and swear you need to throw up.  The audio tracks  for the turkeys were recorded MUCH louder than that of the characters, and  in order to keep from going deaf, you'll turn down the volume and miss what  your South Park kid is saying.  The white-on-white playing field is a pain  to play on and finding your way through each stage isn't easy.  There are  red arrows here and there to point you where you need to go, but since the  scenery is so bland and repetitive, it's easy to get turned around and go  in circles.  I only gave this game 3 stars because I love how Cartman  reacts to being assaulted by the turkeys (play it and hear what I mean).  I  also thought it was pretty funny that your characters don't necessarily  die; they just get ticked off and leave the game.  As another reviewer  noted, the weapons could have been more creative.  I think it might've been  funny to have Cartman have a special weapon that shot cranberry sauce at  the turkeys.  The turkeys aren't easy to destroy, especially if you just  have the snowballs.  Extra power-ups (in the form of Cheesy Poofs) aren't  abundant, so you really have to be cautious of being attacked.  It's not a  bad game, but I know that once I finish it, I won't be keeping it.
Even  the most devoted SP fan couldn't deny that this game just falls short.
        
            
Meh

            This game could have been a heck of alot better. The idea of the game is pretty stupid. They should have taken things from different episodes and made that the game. The graphics are good, since it's only playstation. The multiplayer is pretty fun. Too bad this game wasn't released later on and they could have put Jimmy and Timmy in it. I'm glad I bought this game though.

            Plodding first-person shooter with tons of fog to conceal thegraphic weaknesses.  One-player missions are tedious.  Only redeemingfeature is to play the two-player game with other "South Park" fans, and then only if you've gotten the codes to unlock favorite characters.
Even with friends, you'll tire of it in a day.
        
            
So much potential!

            I love South Park and I really hoped that this game would do the show justice, but I found that I was very disappointed with the graphics and the sound. I was hoping to see the boys in action, but all I saw was one of  their arms that was supposed to be an extension of me. I also agree with  the other reviewer that had trouble with the white on white setting. It can  also be a little tough for people who are prone to motion sickness. South  Park  2  ..please!

            I simply find the game ordinary and boring. I really love the TV-show and was very much looking forward to the game.
Man I was  dissapointed!
There is nothing new in the game. It is simply an ordinary  shoot 'em up including the characters from South Park.
Admitted: There  are a few funny features in the game, the cow-shooting gun, Mr. Hanky the  christmas Poo but even these things gets quite boring after a very short  while.
My advise is: Enjoy the TV-show and use your playstation for  something else.
        
            
Fun, but gets boring quickly

            This game is fun when you first play it, but once you see all the things you can do, you get bored with it quickly.  The graphics parralell the animated show, but that isn't hard considering the low graphics SP is known  for.  All in all, it is worth renting for a night, but definitley not worth  buying.
