Hit up the jump to catch Colbert breaking it down, as the kids say, in a head-to-head dance-off with adorable Korean pop singer on Dance Dance Revolution.

The sordid story, according to Multichannel, by way of WoW Insider was that Lockwood's "Warrior of Truthiness" paladin never actually made it in front of Colbert's eyeballs. Upper Deck seemed to be behind the idea for a real world tie in for its trading card game, but the squares at Colbert, Inc. blocked it.

Shame, as Colbert doesn't seem to be shy about playing video games now and then or being associated with nerdy pursuits. He's guest starred in a couple of Marvel comic books in the past, so he's not too cool for this sort of thing.

Seems to me that his TV persona would love the sort of attention 10 million active World of Warcraft subscribers brings. Perhaps he's more concerned about the demonic RPG aspect of it all and his morals were shaken too close to the core.

Hit the jump for an entry from South Park's production blog about the experience of making the episode.

...tonight's episode is a sobering experience. After watching it come together I feel like maybe we flew a little too close to the nerdy sun with Guitar Hero. Maybe we should take a step back and look at the dark side of being a Guitar Hero:

More often than not, a dude who pulls out a guitar looks and behaves like a total douche. We've all seen it before: some jerk trying to impress the ladies with his badass skills banging out Coldplay as hard as he can. Ugh.

Well, imagine that douche . . . now take away the guitar and replace it with a plastic video game controller. We're even worse than that loser, because we're pretending to be him, all the while tapping our feet and clicking our fingers with the same proud idiocy that the real-life jerk performs with.

The bad news? Each episode will set you back 160 Microsoft Points or $2 real-world money. A bit pricey for 24 minutes of TV, no?

I know, I know. Freedom isn't free and neither is quality video content. At least you can still watch Stewart and Colbert make with the funny on ComedyCentral.com. Michael McWhertor

Comedy Central has been in the habit lately of creating online games for some of their shows. The newest member of this quickly growing clan of games is Reno 911 Paintball. Done in a mock FPS style, Reno 911 Paintball pits you against the Reno 911 deputies in a paintball battle/flag capture game. This free webgame will not work on Macs and PC users will need to have the latest version of Shockwave installed for the game to work properly.

Reno 911 paintball joins other Comedy Central games such as 911's cheekily named Petty Theft Bicycle, South Park's Hippie Drill and Carlos Mencia's Mix Master Mencia. I really hope there's a part in that last one where you score points for stealing other comedian's material. Flynn De Marco

This is an exception. We usually don't like to post eBay stuff, because someone makes money, and it's not us. A customized Wii 2006 Toyota Scion XB is up on the auction block. Originally, this one-of-kind was created by Comedy Central and Nintendo as a grand prize for last year's "Thanksgiving Wiikend" contest.

The car was purchased by Comedy Central for over US $19,000 and then tricked out professionally with a 6.5 Gryphon monitor mounted in the dash which controls the CD/XM ready radio, two 5.8 inch LCD monitors installed in the headrests, a flip-down 10.2 inch LCD monitor with built-in DVD player, two wireless stereo headphones and another 12 inch flip-down LCD. The winner stored the car in a Pennsylvania garage. It only has 337 miles on it! Brian Ashcraft

Will Wright was on the Colbert Report last night and, for at least half of the interview, behaved much like I would have in the same situation: Scared stiff.

He eventually relaxed, but never quite got into his game. The best lines of the interview, rather, belonged to Colbert, who also seemed a bit off. At one point he called his viewers his sims and ordered one to not use the bathroom for 48 hours.

The funniest moment, I think, was when he told Will Wright that when his writers found out the developer was going to be on the show they got "what we call nerdrections." Brian Crecente

We got a heads up from our friends at EA today that Will Wright—of Sims and Spore fame, natch—will be making an appearance on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report this coming Monday, December 4. I'm not sure if Stephen will be interviewing Will or not, but it sounds like it.

Put it in your Google Calendars! Set your Tivos! Get the Jiffy Pop ready! This is appointment television. Michael McWhertor

Best quote: "I gots me one!"

Wow, that's two different shows and one long-ass contest all promoting the Nintendo Wii on Comedy Central. Brian Crecente

Someone actually created a insta-blog just to post the codes needed to enter for your chance at winning a Wii from Comedy Central. Unfortunately, the site has gone blank in the past day or so. Fortunately, I had already written down all of the codes. Unfortunately... Oh, I ran out of those, so hit the jump for what I believe to be the codes. Brian Crecente

ThanxGiveAway [Comedy Central]

You might think that a "Thanxgiveaway" contest would net you a 360, but you'd be wrong. It's the "Wiikend" part you should pay attention to. That painfully hip "x" is for the Scion xB, the so-called grand prize. That boxy little Toyota targeted at "Generation Y" comes "customized with a Wii, a TomTom ONE GPS car navigation system, and much more." You also get a bonus Wii and Excite Truck. If you win, that is.

In addition to that sweet ride, they're also giving away 48 Wiis, to the Comedy Central watching elite. All you have to do is sit your ass in front of the tube, watch that episode of Chappelle's Show for the umpteenth time and wait for a contest code to pop up. Then head back to the site for your chance to win.

You lazy bags of bones can handle that, can't you? Michael McWhertor

Comedy Central Thanxgiveaway Wiikend

This Thanksgiving Comedy Central is giving away 48 hourly prize packages that include a Wii and TomTom GPS.

For a chance to Winn you just need to watch Comedy Central from 11 a.m. Thursday to 11 p.m. Sunday and write down the codes every hour. Then you need to enter them into the site and maybe win something.

You will also be entered to win the grand prize: a tricked-out 06 Toyota Scion xB with a built in customized Wii and TomTom GPS, a Wii, a copy of Excite Truck and $5,000 cash.

Fortunately, you don't need to watch all 48-hours, though the more you watch, the more codes you get and the better your chance at winning. Brian Crecente

For a (fascinating) behind-the-scenes look at the creative process behind the South Park meets World of Warcraft episode that aired in September of this year, check out the full, very long write up at Machinima.com.

You'll see just how involved Blizzard was in the creation of the episode, giving the South Park production staff a spot on a Burning Crusade alpha server, letting WoW fans on the crew get a sneak peek at the expansion.

The Blizzard team gave us a special "friends and family" server to play on. Every once an a while a strange player would walk by and check out group the filming. The programmers could instantly kill a player that got in the way of filming. There's a player out there wondering what they had stumbled upon just before they were wiped from the location.

Slash-laugh. While I'm not a fan of either property, per se, even non-fans should appreciate what went into this. Michael McWhertor

Jon Stewart took on congress, again, last night and their idiotic attack on video games. His mocktitude is quite grandiouse. My favorite HOLY SHIT moment was when Congressman Joe Pitts says that only urban poor kids are in jeopardy of being turned to a life of crime by games because, well they're a bunch of criminals.

Or as Stewart put it: "Weatlhy suburban kids don't do that kind of thing. Like my good friends, those fine Columbine boys.... Seriously the House of Representatives is filled with insane jackasses."

Jon Stewart, we have such a man-crush on you. Brian Crecente
