The reason this Simpsons game will be fun is because it has the Simpsons humor, plus the oustanding GTA gameplay. Thus making a good game.

The reason Simpsons Taxi driver sucked, was because despite the small bit of humor, it was just Taxi Driver... which the game was already old and boring as it is. Especially when you could do the same freakin gameplay in GTA3, but lots of other stuff as well.

I could buy Simpsons: Hit And Run if I wanted to but my budget doesn't allow that. So when it comes to buying Simpsons: Hit And Run or Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Reublic.....

Another Simpsons game eh? Hmm... I wonder if it's gonna be any good...

Has any Simpsons game been good? I think not. (well, that Konami Simpsons arcade game was fun)

So did Wrestlemania XIX on the 'Cube and look how that turned out.

Simpsons games are, and always will be, crap. Until a developer who can actually make a decent game can get a hold of the licence.

Of course, it's hard not to.

I knew it was going to be good no matter what. It's got the huge style of GTA, gameplay and all. And the super popular Simpsons humor to add in, along with stories and voices too.

So, do you have anything good to say about anything? Or do you instantly hate everything?

Well, everything is crap when you think about it.

I like fun/old school/arcade games. The only consoles I need for those are my Cube and Dreamcast.

Cos' for the UK, they have to translate it into french and **** like that.

I nkow they could just change the US one, but the other stupid European countries FINED and made Nintendo pay money for releasing games in the UK before the rest of the Europe. So now, Ninty of UK is organised by Ninty of Germany, so the UK is a "standard" european country. We HAVE to get games the same time as other, and it's annoying as you don't want to be so behind the US.

BUT, for games actually done by Nintendo or Only for Nintendo, they're going to be more intune with the US from next year. The Capcom games are coming out here first, aswell...

And for N5's release, it's going to be easier to translate stuff, over broadband connections and stuff, so i think there will be universal releases.

Zelda N5. All 190 countries. One day. One release date. Cool!

Hit and Run looks cool, but it's not gory. I'd like it gory like the Treehouse eps.

Also, it should have been cel-shaded - look like the cartoon!
