Product Description Released in 1996, the Nintendo 64 was the first system with 64-bit graphics and built-in four player gaming potential. Masterpieces such as Super Mario 64 and Super Smash Bros helped sell over 32 million N64 systems worldwide. NO CASE, NO MANUAL.
Editorial Review The South Park phenomenon leaps from the tube to the Nintendo 64 in this hilarious adult-themed game inspired by the hit TV series. A comet's close call with earth has unleashed a bizarre assortment of mutant turkeys and aliens on the mountain town, and naturally it's up to the kids to save the day. While you switch between the show's four main characters with the tap of a button, the kids battle the baddies on the outskirts of town using an arsenal of weapons ranging from snowballs (including the yellow variety) and sponge dart guns to toilet plungers and cow-firing bazookas. Though South Park fans will love the 3-D translation of the show's signature flat animation style and original voices, hardcore gamers may tire of the single player mode's somewhat repetitive levels and overall lack of intensity. But for those seeking a playfully entertaining romp through South Park's ever-wintry world, this game delivers the fun. We spent the majority of our testing time playing in the multiplayer mode, a fast-paced free-for-all that kept us laughing into the wee hours of night. --Eric Twelker Pros: - All of the TV show's twisted humor without commercial breaks
- Fast-paced multiplayer gameplay
- Inventive weapons
Cons: - Repetitive speech
- Less intense first-person gameplay may disappoint hardcore shoot-em-up fans

An excellent first person shooter. February 23, 2010 A Human (New York City, NY USA) I'm not a fan of FPS's by far. They're one of my least favorite genres. But this game is just excellent, one of the best licensed games I've had the joy of seeing.
Unless you own a controller pak you can't save the game, and the controls can be hard to understand at first but it's an excellent game.
Not as bad as I thought....actually, I love it! August 22, 2009 Jonathan M. Dogey (San Mateo, CA USA) Perhaps games on N64 were different for me because I played them all through Virtual Reality headsets (made by Philips and i-glasses). I absolutely loved getting inside the game, especially with the first person shooters on N64. And South Park was interesting. The virtual world of South Park is a bit without detail, but that's not to say that where you go in this game is not filled with lovely scenery. But what appeals most about this game is it satisfies the need to shoot down everything in sight. There are four parts to this game and each part goes on for quite a while. A UFO has made its way to South Park, CO and some very "crazy spooky stuff" happens. You deal out against hoards of killer Turkeys, evil clones of South Park characters, gigantic mother ships, aliens, killer cows, robots, and the list goes on. Basically hoards of small enemies generate in this game, and come from huger enemies which need to be destroyed, and in each section of this game, all the enemies you kill lead to a huge boss. A classic video game recipe!
What vexes this game is how difficult it is. Particularly the fourth section of this game. You have to precisely aim, which is often crucial, and aiming with the N64 thumbstick is very hard to do. And the final boss is obscenely difficult. Even with the cheat code, it took every ounce of eye hand coordination I could muster to defeat him.
Still, for those into virtual reality helmets, I would recommend this game. And oldie and goodie. Particularly if you like South Park. It has plenty of cute and funny moments.
Great show for an average game..just...average November 18, 2004 Robert Evans (USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This N64 title was exclusive for N64 at one point but that doesn't really matter. South Park 64 looked really promising at first and it truly was with it's shocking yet really great graphics some what game play. And I was looking forward to one of the things South Park is best at. Stupid Funny plot. It kina had one but ends up failing AND I LOVE SOUTH PARK IT'S ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS OUT THERE. But for a game it's just..AVERAGE. Nothing new just run and gun but I liked the whole senario stories like the visitors and the Turkey episodes. Those were great. The game starts off really well as you battle your way through vicious Turkeys but once you beat the Turkey boss it just drags on with the same ol run n' gun and then fight the boss with nothing New. It's just the same ol' same ol.
Graphics are really good and one of the best on the N64. It really shows what the N64 can do. One of the best parts are the bosses cause there 3d animation is sooooo good. But that is just it...Graphics... Now lets get to the problem
Gameplay gets really boring after awhile. Really...It's just the same ol same ol but the game is great for Die Hard SouthPark Fans. I thought the game could have bin better but hey It wasn't But They still try to do a good job. But still...Gameplay is just a lil boring..
Sound is perfect...Trey Parker and Matt Stone do a great job as teh voices of those crazy boys. Sound is great ok!
Pros
Graphics
Sound
Voices
Cons
Gameplay is just way to boring and a bit tedious
Seems like playing the first Episode over again
The ending is sooo crappy I was really expecting something big and cool but just same lame ending...Then again it's just a game based on a show but seriously.
Over all I give it ....a
3.2 out of 5 stars
Get this game at your own risk but I recomend Chef's lUv shack...Much much betta and fun mini games.

its bad April 10, 2004 patrick raskopf (Usa) 3 out of 29 found this review helpful
The game was bad because they said alot of bad languge.They say lots of swears. Sometimes they fliped the bird.If you are younger than 18 maybe you should'nt get this game.Parents should look at the letter M.That means mature. If you see your children wathing this smack them on the head.(Hard!)
This is what friends are for February 3, 2004 billy (Jonny Taylor sucks) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Only buy this is you are a hardcore south park fan, like video games a lot, or have a magnitude of friends to play this game with and the code BIRDBOY or something like that. That is the real purpose of the game (multiplayer mode). Otherwise this game would have tanked like the virtuaboy did.
