South Park: The Stick of Truth is an Immersive Experience for Fans
Andrew Robertson — June 5, 2012 — Tech
E3 is under way and the new trailer for 'South Park: The Stick of Truth' was unveiled. South Park has met with incredible success as demonstrated by its 16 seasons. The popular cartoon show has a knack for tackling current problems in an extremely comical and politically incorrect manner. Fans of the show will now be able to interact with the characters in the new video game South Park: The Stick of Truth.
The game looks like the promo for an upcoming movie or episode but is in fact footage from the game itself. Players will create their own avatar and join Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny as "the new kid." The story for the game isn't entirely clear, but rest assured that enemies new and old will resurface in the upcoming adventure.
