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

By Mutts202

Platform for Display:Sony PSP

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

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!

4.0 out of 5 stars Old but still good July 19, 2010

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Simpsons Game. September 7, 2009

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

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.

I got this game for my PSP and it's fun. Here are the good and the bad thigs about this game:

Bad:
1 The Camera angle is goofy, and it can be frustrating
2 Some levels are just unheard of to beat

Good:
1 It lives up to the Simpsons as their goofy selves
2 It has fun levels
3 Has some things to unlock
4 Bart,Marge,Lisa,and Homer you can all play as

So here's the ratings:

Graphics: B
Sound: B
Challenging: Hard
Playablitly: A
Camera angles: C
Fun: A

I will rate it 4 overall only because of the hard levels and camera angles. Fun would be 5 stars!
