As soon as South Park became the best thing that Comedy Central had going, it was easy to figure out that someone would quickly hop on the bandwagon and develop a game based on the cartoon. That someone is Acclaim, and its game is a weird little first-person shooter based on the Turok 2 engine. While the game may not stand on its own merits, this is one case where a licenses has actually been used to enhance a game, rather than remind you how bad the game is and how good the source material was.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26 — In March, the season premiere of “South Park” began by barging into typically risqué territory, with a squirm-inducing bit about the taboo of using a certain racial epithet. To Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators and executive producers of “South Park,” Comedy Central’s most lucrative franchise, the clip ought to have been blazing its authorized way around the Internet, its flouting of social norms picking up ad revenue with every set of eyeballs. Instead, the clip was easy to find, but it wasn’t making any money for its rightful owners. “If I’m overseas and have to get an episode right away,” Mr. Stone lamented, “you literally have to go to an illegal download site.” Because of the slow entry into the digital realm of Viacom, Comedy Central’s parent, and an almost crippling deal point in Mr. Stone’s and Mr. Parker’s contract, the lewd, rude, crudely animated and mordantly funny series — one that began with a viral video before the term even existed — has barely had a presence as an avalanche of user-generated entertainment hit the Web. Meanwhile, sites like YouTube met the demand for free “South Park” clips without paying for the privilege. Now... Mr. Stone and Mr. Parker and their bosses at Comedy Central, a unit of Viacom’s MTV Networks, are attempting to leapfrog to the vanguard of Hollywood’s transition into Web.
