Product Description

Platform: Sony PSP

In The Simpsons Game, Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa use exciting, all-new powers to defend their home town from rising chaos. While the Simpsons have general abilities that can be used to fight opponents, interact with environments, and finish puzzles; each one has been imbued with special abilities that are unique to their personalities. These abilities grow and change as they progress through the story to battle tougher and tougher enemies in their quest to save Springfield! To help the Simpsons, gamers must journey through their home town (as well as vast worlds beyond!), vanquish an amazing array of villains, and fight their way through parodies of multiple popular games. 100% original script from the writers of the show with 4 distinct acts divided into 16 episodes and over 8,000 lines of dialogue. The open-world Springfield was designed as a central locale to jump into episodes with iconic locations to visit, characters to be visited and interact with, and hundreds of collectibles to be found. With parodies of the video game industry, pop culture and current events, the game has the same gut wrenching hilarity as the show. Co-op Play - With two members of The Simpsons family involved in each episode, all episodes can be played cooperatively in addition ESRB Rated T for Teen

4.0 out of 5 stars Simpsons Game for PSP, January 20, 2008

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: The Simpsons Game (Video Game)

This game is great for Simpsons fans (which I am one). The videos are fun to watch, you get to play a lot of the characters with their own personalities. The game stays true to the humor of the TV show. I want to point out the flaws, however, so you'll be prepared:
1. The 3D perspective is a bit difficult to use, since you can only center it on the direction in which the player is facing by hitting "L" (you can't pan or look around up or down). The perspective also changes on its own depending on the angle, so it can be frustrating to control the character.
2. There are quite a few places where you just can't figure out what to do. I've had to go to someone's online walkthrough about 5 times so far just to keep going, and I'm halfway through the game. The most frustrating thing is if you're not around a computer or WiFi: I was on an airplane going across the country, and I got stuck on what to do to finish a level, and couldn't play it again until I got home! What a bummer!!
If it weren't for some of the confusing tasks to finish a level, the game would otherwise be pretty easy. It certainly is fun while it's moving along!

Just got this game recently and played through it. It was fun. Lots of good Simpson's one-liners. Game quality itself was just OK but that's not the main focus of a game like this. The cast of characters, voices, show quotes, etc. are all at or above expectations and make the game worth playing through for any Simpsons fan.

This game is great. The only problem is the camera angles and sometimes getting stuck on a level. Game is not too long and not too short with lots of stuff to collect every level. If you are a Simpsons fan I would suggest you buying this game.
