The Simpsons Game...

Post Reply New Topic

...is officially too short and too easy.

I got it for Christmas day from my parents, and they were wondering how I was doing with it, so I think it's a shame for them to hear that I've already completed it.

Granted, the humour in this game makes the puchase worth it, gameplay is just too short and too easy. The final level took a few attempts, but wasn't long before I cleared that.

Shame eally, because this was by far the best Simpsons game out so far.

I like easy games...

I've got heaps for the Playstation 2 (which is actually for the kids).

I've only been able to complete;

Lego Star Wars
God of War 1 and 2
Revenge of the Sith (by Cheating)
The Polar Express

Things are looking good on Stuart Little too...

I almost finished animaniacs but got stuck on the last bit - the plane
Haven't gotten too badly stuck in Simpsons Hit and Run, but haven't finished.

Got stuck right at the end in Jak 1, and right at the beginning in Jak 2 - don't they have cheat modes for them?

Cheated in Shrek 2 when it got too boring (I hate arcade levels).

Apparantly the camera in the Simpsons game isn't very good. That applies to all versions except DS, which is a 2D platformer. I wasn't going to get it although the game references like Sitar Hero, Zero Life, Need for Speedo, Mega Moleman, Medal of Homer, NeverQuest and Grand Theft Scratchy are very funny.

I wish they'd ported some of the good old PC games to Playstation 2. It's difficult to play them on a modern computer although DOS Box and D-Fend are pretty good. I also keep an eye out for Ports.

I'd like to get Duke Nukem, Doom I and II, Rise of the Triad etc.. updated for PS2 at least...
It would be nice to get some of the adventure games ported too, but I understand that it's a lot more difficult.

I didn't really have issues with the camera angles in the game. Although in the final movie of the game, it does have God complaining about the camera angles whilst reading "The Simpsons Game" manual, so if there were issues, they're aware of it

That's interesting. A very humourous way to apologise about the camera.

OMG I got that game 4 the DS for Xmas it's cool!

The DS version seems like the best version. Pet Homer sounds hilarious.

Better too short and too easy than, well, "Bart Vs. The Space Mutants"...

I still have a fondness for "Virtual Bart," though. XD

I hope EA gets sued by SONY for making fun of God of War.

A LOT of people will have issues with this game as it makes fun of so many games. As far as EA are concerned though, you haven't made it until you've been parodied by pop culture.

A few of Nintendo's franchises have been parodied too. Have you seen Lisa's L cap? What about Bartwings? Marge's elf ears. Nintendo might have a few issues with the game....

Where's the "God of War" Parody? All I saw was:
- Medal of Homer (Medal of Honour)
- NeverQuest (EverQuest, Lord Of The Rings, Legend of Zelda, Gauntlet)
- Grand Theft Scratchy: Blood Island (Grand Theft Auto)
- Big Super Happy Fun Fun (Anime, Pokemon, Japanese Culture, Katamari Damacy)
- The Simpsons: Escape From Krusty Island (Escape From Monkey Island, I think :S Not sure of actual name)
And maybe some obvious ones that I missed lol

EA can go to hell! Along with Nintendo.

Whatever...
