This made me lol a lot, considering it's become most of my social life, during weeknights and weekends. A lot of the game lingo was used, too, which I thought was cool. They did their research. Some of the screens and characters didn't match up, though, but it's South Park. I wasn't going to fault them.

Great episode.

It wasn't that great. I laughed at a couple points but was expecting much much more. And being a huge nerd I can't shake the inaccuracies, such as the completely and total lack of Horde and the fact that Kenny and Randy had Human hunters. I could certainly go on. And I don't mean to imply that's what ruined the episode, it just didn't knock me on my ass like some episodes have in the past, even despite it's relevance.

But I mean come on, nobody uses Teamspeak. Where was Ventrilo >:[

Do you always come and rain on people's parade? I talked to my guildmates after the episode, and they loved it.

And plenty of people use Teamspeak. Ventrilo is just more commonly used.

I loved the ep!


Stan's Dad rules! I haven't played this game for a long time... now I kinda miss it. Meh, I'm sure that feeling will go away shortly.

Oh well if your guild mates loved it then I must be wrong. Jesus, is Zarius in your guild or something?

That was one of the best episodes in awhile.

The sad part, is I actually know people that play WoW that intense.

If I had people to play it with regularly I'd be on there all the ****ing time. I can solo for a couple of hours just fine... but if someone else gets going with me, it can go all day.

I fear for my roommates when they get their boxes of the WoW TCG. I will have my turtle mount!

I laughed a lot, and I don't even play WoW.

The whole, point and click stuff... eugh.. Now if it had an interface similar to Zelda's battle system, then I would be all over that.

I don't play WoW either, but I still thought it was good. Sure, the part where Cartman crapped on his Mom was kinda sick, but that's South Park for ya.

A quick WoW question: Do you have to play online all the time, or can you go solo like on Elder Scrolls or Knights of the Old Republic?

Ok, stop the fighting.

Not everyone has to like the episode, and it's ok if you didn't. We're all allowed to have differing opinions.

I don't play WOW. Nor am I gay.

I suppose SP can be guilty of MMORPG inaccuracy, but I think they were just using the basics of what it all comes down to

I'm not a big fan of South Park, but I did watch this episode when it reaired on Friday night. I thought it was pretty funny in most parts. I'm also not a big player of WoW, but I have played it once before, and I gotta say....

... that is one of the funniest things I've read so far.

The show reminded me of an incident at Best Buy, where I purchased an MMORPG and the clerk asked if I played WoW. I replied that I play it occasionally and he invited me to his guild. All I could think of was, "Take the bag and back away smiling..."

lol that episode is definetly my favourite of the season and i haven't even played WoW! I just loved the whole frustration thing Cartman, Kyle, Stan and Kenny get that we can all relate to and the fact they devote their lives to playing the game and end up becoming fat slobs, much like the WoW gamer they hate!

For those who haven't seen it...

Can't wait for the Halloween episode!
