Stone Talks About “South Park” Video Game
With his creative partner Trey Parker, Matt Stone created both the enduringly popular adult cartoon series “South Park” and the smash-hit musical “The Book of Mormon.” Pairing boyish, gross-out comedy with biting parody, they are two of the darkest satirists in US media. Working with video-game developer Obsidian Entertainment, Stone has spent the last few years both writing and overseeing “South Park: The Stick of Truth,” a game that’s far from the usual throwaway licensed cash-in. Instead it’s an interactive extension of the “South Park” universe, with the same shocking and irresistible sense of humor. Stone explains.
