The Simpsons Game (PlayStation 2, 2007)

THIS IS A MULTI PLOT GAME, WITH THE FAVOURITE SIMPSONS CHARACTER AT THE HEALM. IT HAS BEEN REFERRED TO AS AN 8 HOUR SIMPSONS EPISODE. TO BE BRIEF- YOULL HAVE A BLAST AT THIS GAME AND ITS FUN, UNIQUE AND HILARIOUS- A VARIETY OF GAMES TO PLAY... MANY MINI-GAMES. BUT WHEN THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE PLAYERS ON THE SCREEN, IT SHOULD NOT BE A MOSTLY 1 PLAYER GAME. IN THIS , THEY MISSED THE BOAT, WHY NOT HAVE 4 CO-OP PLAYERS? 4 SIMPSONS CHARACTERS, UO TO 4 PLAYERS! ... WELL AT LEAST 2 PLAYERS CAN PLAY MOST OF THE TIME... EVEN THOUGH 1 OF THE 2 CHARACTERS DOES MOST OF THE WORK IN MOST MINI-GAMES, THE 2ND PLAYER SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE BAGGAGE! THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT, EVEN SUPERB GAME. BUT ITS ONE YOULL HAVE LOTS OF FUN WITH, AND BE CHALLENGED. THE LONG LASTING APPEAL WILL REMAIN WITH HOW MUCH A SIMPSONS FAN YOU ARE! ................................................................................................................................

My sons specifically asked for this game and we are on a budget, so I was happy that I could get this and a couple of others at a very reasonable price. Haven't tried it yet, but I'm sure it is fine.
Happy Holidays.

My grandson loves this game. He is into the playstation games and this is one of his favorites. He has two other Simpson games and they keep him busy.

Very good game. If you like the Simpsons you will love this game. So get it and play it. I need 100 Caharacters for this review. That's why I put that. Thank you.

I bought this item because I love the Simpsons. I love all their games. It's so fun. Especially Hit & Run.

Decent game, entertaining plot and gameplay. Camera angles aren't very good and easy to fall in the platform style jumping. Relatively short game, and little incentive for replay. But fun while it lasts.

Dooh!! Those damn camera angles [is what the tech debuggers should be saying].

As I love platform 3D games and the subtle and sometimes not so subtle irreverent humor of the Simpson's, I figured I couldn't go wrong with this purchase (especially at $5 for PS2 console platform; newegg has it for PS3 console at $12 with free shipping, which looks a little better in the graphics dept,- appearing to have more solid edges and textures to objects).

When I said I figured I couldn't go wrong, I figured wrong. To explain; from the start of play, the control is terrible, due to camera angle viewpoints control often not being able to correctly adjust, causing players to have to repeat what should have been a simple series of jumps,- over and over and over..... and over,.. did I say over again? Inexcusable failure to properly debug this problem before release to publication makes what should be lighthearted casual fun to be a frustrating experience that persists throughout gameplay. The options allow user changes of horizontal and vertical camera viewpoint control to be inverted (either one or both), which is helpful for most 3D platform games; however, due to the camera viewpoint control failing to allow players to correctly adjust view while making a series of jumps that any gamer with moderate skills should be ableto pull off on the first attempt,.. letalone the 5th,- it is difficult to enjoy the humor when you are getting pissed off!

This game has enough creative variety and humor to be fun, but the buggy problems that plague it throughout are not amusing,- so instead of 4-4.5 for its unique genre, it ends up getting a hard to award 3.5, and that is being generous. (Actually had to score either 3 or 4, usig eBay rating system, no half points).

The game is great my girlfriend loves it thanks! She played it all night long last night. Thanks LOL

This is a fun "drunk" game..Not really good for kids. Funny game ties into TV series well.. Highly recommended if you have any sense of humor at all!

Excellent game, but I bought to use in my computer and only can use in PS2 plataform. I love the game interactivity.

I decided to buy it because I like the simpsons, and I had seen this game whit a friend and I liked it.

I wanted to buy it because it had a excellent price and i always wanted this game. Also the game is sweet. I always love the simpsons and now with there being a game i really thought it would be cool. Only one way to find out.

I bought The Simpsons PlayStation 2 game as a Christmas gift for my son. The game arrived well packaged and quickly. The game works well and it's now my son's favorite PlayStation game. He loves it.
The seller is a woderful and I will be buying again.

I really like this game and I use it a lot. I decided to buy it because it was a good game. It more than met my expectations.

I was a little bit confused as to whether this game was for the PC or the PS2, but I ordered it anyway because the receiver of said gift has both. Other than that, the game came only a few days after I ordered it, and the DVD was scratch free. I tested the game out and it runs beautifully -- I have no doubt in my mind that this is the perfect gift. Thanks! :)

I bought this game for myself. It came in the mail yesterday. The game was just as the seller described. I am very happy with my purchase. I plan to buy from this seller again in the future.

Hi,

I'm waiting for The Simpsons Game from 10.09.08. ?????
The item was payed from Paypal.
I didn't get your answer to my last review.

This is an extremely canny and fun game. You play all of the Simpsons crew, and they all have their own unique punch lines. I would highly recommend this for any Simpsons lover!!! Very fun and quite strategic!

Not as good of a game that I would have imagined. Especially the graphic potential being with PS2. Hit and Run had better graphics.This one seemed repetitive in landscape.
An average game for true Simpsons Fans!
