It looks really good. I think it's called Simpsons- Hit and Run. It's apparently kinda like gta except instead of stars there is a meter. There's meant to be every single Simpson "mandmark", and the magazine said it has over 5000 different lines of individual speech -excluding cutscenes. Over 80 vehicles which you earn from missions, and in this you have the freedom to go wherever you want, like moes or somewhere. Anyways, anyone gonna get this?

Because that would be incredibly 'random' wouldn't it.

I like a lot of bad games. It's just when I don't like a bad game, I tend to let everyone know.

YOU... LIKED a BAD game?!?!?


Normally, you're the first one to rant-and-rave about how bad the latest cheap and hyped-up multi-format, big-licensed release really is!

To be honest, exploring Springdfield is about as fun as having your eyes gouged out.

Its only cool when its in the cartoon, and something hilarious is happening, not when Homer randomly says one of his pre-scripted comments.

Looks good to me, fully intreractive Springfield and stuff. Even if the missions suck, the chance to walk around Springfield and stuff sells it to me.

Road Rage IMO was nowhere near as bad as people made out, it had a lot of problems but I still enjoyed it.

I'd like to think this one would be different (and actually GOOD), but I've thought the same about one-or-two of the other Simpsons games, and just look at them.

I reckon I'll still get it, though - just for the experience of being able to go just about ANYWHERE in Springfield, just as long as it's been on TV!



...But it SHOULD be good - seeing as they nicked MY idea from the old "Game Ideas" forum from a couple of months back, for this one!! :P

I'm gonna give it a try when it gets a UK release - if anything, it'll sell as the GTA for kids.

I think that's what he meant to say.

Simpsons = Quality
GTA = Dull, ugly sadistic crap

Put the two together and you *might* get a good game.

I refuse to buy it. Simspons games, no matter how much actual work is put into the development of them, always turn out to be utter balls.
