Trey Parker and Matt Stone have essentially won television. Since South Park's inception in Neverwinter PS4 AD 1997, it's earned Emmy nominations in the double digits, and has gone on to win roughly half the time. It's been on scores of 'Best Television Show' and 'Best Cartoon' lists, from Time, TV Guide, Entertainment Weekly, and Rolling Stone, just to name a few. It didn't take them long to move on to the silver screen, acting in BASEketball, and writing, starring in and producing multiple cult and commercial hits such as Orgazmo, Cannibal! The Musical, and Team America World Police. The inevitable South Park movie treatment was largely successful and even nominated for a 'Best Original Song' Oscar. In more recent years, Trey and Matt have even met with accomplishment on Broadway. Their smash hit The Book Of Mormon went on to win numerous Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

Trey and Matt hope to bring that success to the video game arena next by bringing their fictional 'quiet mountain town' to life on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in the recently released South Park The Stick of Truth. That's not to say that The Stick of Truth is the first game based on the show. In the early years of the series, a few South Park titles were released for the Nintendo 64. However no one would really call them successful. Admittedly, Trey and Matt didn't have a hand in the development of those early efforts, and as gamers themselves even they were unhappy with the 'cheap licensed games' these third party developers were producing. They decided to put the game thing on hold for a while, and when they were ready to give it another go they did it their way. Instead of waiting for a developer to present a good idea to them, Trey and Matt approached Obsidian Entertainment to Buy Neverwinter Gold talk about making the South Park game that they wanted.
