I’m going to be following news about this game pretty closely.
Game Informer has a video interview with the CEO of Obsidian about the South Park RPG.
Feargus Urquhart loves RPGs. As the lead designer on Fallout 2 and one of the founders of RPG-centric Obsidian Entertainment, Urquhart and the rest of the team are not approaching South Park: The Game as a simple licensed title. A lot of thought is going into the challenge of creating a light-hearted experience that’s enjoyable for fans of the show but also appeals to fans of Obsidian’s deep RPG heritage.
Alpha Protocol and Fallout: New Vegas are fighting to become my all-time favorite RPG (with some hefty competition from Icewind Dale and Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines (RPG historians will probably notice a pattern here…)), and while I’ve yet to have Dungeon Siege III draw me in (not a Diablo/Dungeon Siege fan, though) Obsidian is my go-to company for “excited, do want” games.
Trey and Matt pitching the game and directly involved just makes it all the more appealing!

Jim Yoho is the owner of In Genre, Wausau Comics, and JAY Entertainment and he maintains the site as well as adding the occasional article or review of his own. He often goes by Merin online, from way back in the BBS days of dial-up modems even.
Having enjoyed writing reviews and postings for other sites he decided to start his own where he combined his creative urges to write and create web comics (such as Episode Fun and Alistair & Arthur) with his long-held desire to bring together and organize talented people for joint projects. The end result is that you get the Wausau Comics site - articles and reviews of genre entertainment at In Genre plus some web comics and links to the works of other Contributors, too!
