This game will be a definite buy for me once it comes out September 7th on Xbox Live Arcade.  Here are some notes I picked up while talking to the hired booth guy.

Stuff under the “DUH” notes

• It’s a tower defense game
• Up to 4 players
• Coming out for Xbox Live
• Check out www.Xbox.com/Southpark for more info

More specific stuff

• Instead of using a mouse cursor to plant your towers, you choose one of the 4 kids (Stan, Kyle, Kenny, Cartman) as your cursor.
• You move your kid to where you want to plant you tower.  Press a button to bring up the tower chooser, then press left or right to look at the different towers.
• Once an enemy is killed, they drop coins.
• You don’t automatically earn money every time you kill something.  You need to pick up the coins before they disappear.
• It plays on a custom storyline.
• More than 100 new lines have been voice recorded just for the game.
• Some unlockables include old clips form the show.
• Each kid has their own super move.
• If playing with less than 4 players, you can switch between kids at anytime.
• Kids that aren’t being used, turn into simple snowball throwing towers.
• Kids can throw snowballs at anytime to help the towers.
• Like MegaMan, you can charge up your snowball for a 1-hit-1-kill.
