Wow, the gameplay is bad. Worse than I'd expected. I don't really have any motivation to continue playing.
Some peole seem to be able to enjoy it... *shrug*

Majority of the jokes were a lot worse than in the actual show
not really, but you might get that impression because there is next to no satire in the game, much less any that wasn't present in the show already, which is a damn shame.
No. South Park does satire like a hippopotamus makes love. Sometimes they really manage to hit the nail on the head, mostly they're just flailing around and hammering home their points.

It's more like: The first few seasons hit the nail on the head and lately they're just flailing around.
But that doesn't make the game any better...

To me it is simple to explain to anybody who is on the fence;
If you are a fan of the show and paying $60 won't leave you eating corn flakes and tuna for a month go for it.
If you are one of those gamers who likes the 90s Final Fantasies and have passing knowledge of the TV show and are not easily offended go for it.
If you are neither of the above you probably won't feel the game is worth the full price right now and you won't get half of the running jokes and gags so best to wait till it is at a discount
If you are a kid who might buy 3 or 4 games a year definetly stay away till it is cheaper because the game is good but not $60 good in that scenario
Everybody else; non fans, monocles, candy asses or easy offended need not apply

First few seasons were the worst. Well I have watched up until mid 12th season and 7-12 were better and funnier than 1-6.
