    Unless you’re a fan of the South Park universe, you’re probably not going to be able to dive into this game. For me, although it’s a ton of fun and bright and cheery – after a while the potty humour and same quips and jokes became somewhat wearisome.

    The whole spirit of South Park in two magnificent flippers. Essential for fans of one or the other.

    Nothing else needs to be said—Zen Pinball 2 owners should buy South Park Pinball. South Park fans must buy this table pack.

    The only gripes I would have to say I have with South Park Pinball is as follows: A) there only 2 tables, and I’m not sure if it was a decision based on popularity or what, but it would have been nice to have at least one more to choose from in this universe. B) South Park is an undoubtedly politically incorrect game full of dirty words and don’t go there humor, and these two tables are very PG to say the least.

    Fans of the long-running TV series will get a kick out of the cameos and inside jokes, but everybody else will be left scratching their heads.

    It's the best South Park pinball ever. What else do you need?

    The South Park add-on is yet another great addition to the Zen Pinball platform. The main table is filled with memorable lines, classic characters and fun missions that South Park fans will love. The second table is a bit low on content, but it’s still entertaining and good for newcomers. It’s a shame that the table don’t include more of the series offensive humor, but it’s a small complaint on an otherwise excellent package.

    If you’re a fan of the series and enjoy pinball, buy it.

    Much of its appeal may go missing on those that aren't in love with the source material, but everyone else should give this a look.

    Zen Studios seems to have an almost uncanny ability to understand what makes big franchises tick and appeal to large numbers of gamers, and then take the concepts and create impressive tables based around them.

    Zen Studios has adapted the series and put it inside two pinball machines. They are very entertaining but very chaotic at times. Especially the sounds are chaotic and annoy easily. Worth buying.

    If you’re looking for even more pinball in your life, these are some good ones to add to the collection, just keep in mind, you may want to turn the volume down unless you enjoy being annoyed.

    I wish ZEN would get its hands out of my pockets. There is always an additional cost to play.

    There should be no additional cost to play
    I wish ZEN would get its hands out of my pockets. There is always an additional cost to play.

    There should be no additional cost to play after purchase of the game just to put it out there it seems that developers want to set up shop on my console to ask for more money for content that really should be included in the package on shelf.

    It is annoying to see this happening and if it is a ploy to entice impulse spending I am NOT amused. It will come back to bite you. You watch and see.

    They charge $10 for each and every terrible licensed level... Star Wars $10, Hello Kitty $10, Dora the Explorer $10. They are just scammingThey charge $10 for each and every terrible licensed level... Star Wars $10, Hello Kitty $10, Dora the Explorer $10. They are just scamming obsessive fans.

    Funny how "free to play" games end up costing you way more than if you'd bought them outright?

    Have you ever wanted to play mediocre pinball while that annoying guy from school who would just would say random SouthPark catchphrases wasHave you ever wanted to play mediocre pinball while that annoying guy from school who would just would say random SouthPark catchphrases was in the room? You should play Zen Pinball SouthPark. The Butters table doesn't even have that many expressions so it will make you hate Butters forever. Glad I got this super cheap in a flash sale. Full Review »
