Morgan Freeman's supporting role as the player character's mentor in The Fractured But Whole is one of the game's most hilarious aspects. It builds from his role in The Stick Of Truth (and several episodes of the series), where he would inexplicably arrive to deliver exposition (and gain a new freckle each time).

His additional role as the game's optional superboss is somewhat underwhelming given how simple he is to ultimately defeat, but witnessing a parody one of Hollywood's finest actors use flatulence as a weapon is a bizarre sight that isn't to be missed.

The Stick Of Truth's most notable 'celebrity' appearance came in the form of Al Gore, who has been ridiculed on numerous occasions throughout the series' run as a delusional individual desperate for attention. His half-man, half-bear, half-pig hybrid creation, ManBearPig, was fought as a boss.

The former Vice President turned climate change activist has been prominent in the media this year following the release of the sequel to his 2006 documentary film on the subject, An Inconvenient Truth.

Given both this and the fact that Gore's character believes himself to be (and wants the public to see him as) a superhero, it's a shame that players weren't given the opportunity to fight either his deranged persona or another iteration of ManBearPig.
