Disturbed, South Park Get Free Rock Band Tracks

You'll have at least two more options for getting your hands on free tracks for Rock Band, as a pair of new promotions from Best Buy and Comedy Central promise to boost your song collection for "free." As Shacknews points out, Disturbed fans can get access to a pair of the band's downloadables by pre-ordering their latest opus via Best Buy, songs that the public won't get until June. It looks like this particular promotion is limited to Xbox 360 owners and fans of intolerable music.

Later this year, folks who buy the South Park season 11 DVD set will be treated to a trio of unspecified Rock Band tracks alongside top shelf poop and dick jokes. Details? Scant! All this cross selling makes us wonder: Could Rock Band be the greatest cross promotion tool ever to grace the video game medium?

South Park Teases Guitar Hero

Many of you have probably already watched South Park's Guitar Hero episode that aired last night, but we enjoyed this very telling clip that compares playing real guitar to playing the hyperbolic air guitar that we know better as the GH controller. Because we understand where those kids are coming from. Back in our band days, we'd have loved some positive reinforcement for nailing our trombone solo. Alas, the real world is not garnished with the crack that is a high score.

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

Latest by NishinoTsukasa: Oh boy. Honestly, South Park makes fun of everything. If you have a good sense of humor, even people who play Guitar Hero found this episode funny because they know it more than anyone else that what they're saying is more »

Don't forget to tune into Comedy Central tonight if you want to catch the Guitar Queer-o episode of South Park, featuring a Guitar Hero obsessed Stan and Kyle. Worth tuning into just for a few seconds worth of Boston pumping through your media center. A very brief preview is available online.

Mario Makes It To South Park

Mario has made it. With the likes of cameos by famous figures like George Clooney (playing a barking dog), Mario will go down in the books as a South Park star. Here he appears with all the world's imagination, though even Mario is outshined by the monster from Where The Wild Things Are. Hit the jump for a bonus pic. Did anyone catch the episode? Was it any good?

Make Love, Not Warcraft Wins Emmy

Reader Sylient points out that the South Park homage to World of Warcraft, Make Love, Not Warcraft, won the 2007 Creative Arts Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (for programming less than one hour). As a fellow Coloradoan and gamer let me be nowhere near the first to congratulate Trey Parker, Matt Stone and his team for the much deserved award.

Hit up the exclusive snippet of Make Love Not Warcraft commentary in the clip above to get a taste of how the creative process worked in the now award-winning episode.

Make Love Not Warcraft Commentary


Gamers take note the South Park Tenth Season DVD pack hits stores on Aug. 21. The season features both the Make Love not Warcraft episode and the two-episode story featuring both the creators' take on atheism and their craving for the Wii.

The South Park gang was kind enough to shoot us this exclusive early look at some of the commentary included in the Make Love Not Warcraft episode. I also had a chance to watch through the gaming episodes and listen to the commentary. Pretty interesting stuff in there.

South Park Season 10 DVD Set Includes World of Warcraft Trial

The sloppy wet Blizzard-South Park smooches will continue as Comedy Central has announced that the DVD set collecting the tenth season of South Park will contain a 14-day trial for World of Warcraft. The crudely animated comedy prominently featured the Blizzard MMO in its tenth season in the episode titled "Make Love, Not Warcraft" an effort recently nominated for an Emmy.

The DVD collection goes on sale August 21 for a manufacturer suggested price of $49.99, but can be had for far less at the right retailers. No word on when Blizzard will finally seal that deal with God himself to imprint trial versions of WoW on our DNA. Keep reading for an extremely rare press release.

South Park WoW Gets Emmy Nom

The Make Love, Not Warcraft episode of South Park received an Emmy nomination today for outstanding animated program (less than one hour). And it better win it, the outstanding show is up against Avatar, Robot Chicken, SpongeBob and The Simpsons. OK, I do LOVE Robot Chicken, but that South Park episode was brilliant.

The winners will be announced during a live event broadcast on Fox on Sept. 16. Good luck South Park.

Dancing or not, Rock Man (AKA "Mega Man") so makes everything better. Yes, even South Park. Works especially well seeing how the cartoon has referenced Power Ranger-type "Mega Man" toys in the past. Brian Ashcraft More »

Zelda/South Park Mash Up

Wow. I don't even know what to say after watching this one. It's in turns terrifying, disgusting and downright hilarious. This goes beyond the normal mash up, this is like a mash up on acid. A semi-pornographic Zelda parody done in South Park animation style using the voice tracks from the Zelda cartoon. And to top it all off , it shows the original cartoon the voices come from in the lower left corner. Amazing job by Robotbling! I'm speechless... Flynn De Marco

The Office Does Call of Duty

First it's South Park doing World of Warcraft, now The Office is doing Call of Duty. I'm delighted to see the mainstream media "discover" computer games but I won't rest until Saturday Night Live does Okami. Brian Crecente
