IGN gave it a 9/10

Metacritic so far at an 86 overall.

Just got it in the mail...heard it is outstanding. Turn Based RPG style, feels like watching the show

I still really want this. But I'll wait. Stupid priorities.

I loved this game. Exactly like an extended episode. They make fun of some classic video game mechanics all throughout the game. The way they handle the silent protaganist (you) was hilarious, as well as Cartman's explanation for why they used a turn-based combat system.

Overall I only had two complaints. One was the length. Typically in these types of games you would see a playtime of over 20 hours. I think mine clocked in at 15 and that was with me hunting for just about every secret and collectible I could find. The other should be fixed very easily in a patch. There needs to be either a "Sell all junk" button OR the game needs to keep highlighting the top stack so that you don't have to click on it, click sell stack, and do that about 100 times whenever you go to a shop. It's not as big a deal in the console version since it does highlight the top stack each time, but on PC it blows.

I understand they probably want you to read all the clever show references they came up with for the junk items in the game, but damn that shit is annoying.

For another hour on Amazon it is down to 42.99

Yeah, I think they could've found a way to extend the gameplay a little more. I expect some DLC here in the next few months which will help.
Its a great game, really funny.

I'm not sure how much longer I have left in the game based on where I'm at....but I was aware of the length before I bought the game....so it's not THAT big of a deal to me. Plus I'm interested to see if the 2nd playthrough will be as funny or as fun as the 1st one has been....especially with a new class.

The sell all button is desperately needed. Plus maybe it was just me....but there hasn't been a time when I was worried about money. I've never had to make a decision like in other RPGs.

Just got this today and put about 3 hours in. So far it's strange but fun.

Has there been any DLC since the release?...
