Fantastic! Now if they would just show some gameplay footage before it's out..

I was wondering this as well. Has there been any?

From my understanding from various preview right-ups what we've seen is in-engine scenes.

We've seen gameplay. It's the same as everything else, but with a hud and RPG gameplay similar to paper mario. Everything they have shown is in-engine.

This looks fantastic. Of course gameplay is the big mystery right now but as far as the look and script, it is South Park. Really pullin for this one.

Huh....I wonder if they pushed it back to coincide with a (mid?)season finale now that the show started back up yesterday. How awesome would that be if they did that?

Even if the gameplay ends up bad, at least what they've shown of the cinematics so far is money.

I love South Park and Obsidian is one of my favorite developers so I don't have a choice; have to buy it.

giving this a clickthrough simply for giving the date in the title . Was starting to annoy me all the sites hiding it for clicks. Do I blame them? No. Was it obvious and annoying? Most assuredly.

YES! Finally a release date. Dec 10 is a good date. It's almost a month after new consoles are out so people have time to play the next-gen games and then get The Stick of Truth.

Yeah, there's a pretty funny story about even Matt Stone saying it was a bad movie, but his friend kept arguing with HIM about why it's awesome. I also, love BASEketball. I am also, so fucking hyped for this game, I REALLY don't want to be disappointed(as selfish as that may sound).

Damn you Ubisoft! They keep pushing Watch_Dogs and Assassin's Creed IV, and burying what will probably be their best release this year (at least critically),

Even if you dislike BASEketball, you can't blame that on the South Park dudes. They didn't write or direct it, they only acted in it.

@soulcake: Well, I'm no lawyer, but I would guess that it's okay to parody something like that (fair use and all that), even if "Dragonborn" is trademarked.

Next-gen versions would have been cool, but they have been working on this for so long that would be a little unrealistic. Oh well, hopefully the PC version is up to par.

I was hoping to see this on PS4 as well. This may be the last game I get on my PS3.

Yeah, there's some shaky cam videos of people playing it at Gamescom and PAX, you should be able to find them pretty easily on YouTube.

No Xone or PS4? How unfortunate. Should've hit before new consoles if they couldn't hit them as well.

Date is fine for me, mid-December is usually a barren wasteland in terms of new releases. Great to see it's hitting in 2013 like they kept saying it would. About that PC delay, though...
