Simpsons Road Rage
 

Is Simpsons Road Rage out yet? Has anyone gotten it? How is it?

I saw a review of it that said it stank... and it was in a magazine promoting the console. I thought that was funny.

I saw lots of copies at BB yesterday, so yes it is out.

It's out for Xbox. The Gamecube version comes out in a couple weeks.

I'm so thankful i didn't make this one of my BUY2GET1FREE games. EGM came out and all three reviewers gave it less than a 5 (out of 10) i think the score were 4 4 and 3. THe curse of the simpsons games continues.

How dumb not to use the cel shading technique, it would have looked awesome instead of the polyginal 3d look.

has there ever been a Simpsons game that didn't suck? I think maybe Krusty's funshouse or something like that was the best.

The arcade sidescroller game was great. I wish there would have been a home conversion.

Actually, there was a PC version of the arcade sidescroller that was okay, but not a perfect port. However, you can download the ROM for MAME and play the original.

I haven't seen any reviews for "Simpsons Road Rage." Are the complaints just that it's too similiar to "Crazy Taxi," or are there other problems as well?

I played it at Babbages and thought it was a lot of fun. It's just like Crazy Taxi (a little slower) and the quotes are very funny. If you're a fan you'll have a good time. At EA's website, if you enter "canyonero" in the search engine, you can order the game for $40 instead of $50.

Thanks for the tip...but it only works for the PS2 and Xbox versions. D'OH!

I liked the Space Mutant one for NES :)

Just tried it and only they came up too :mad:

I need it for GC. I have never played Crazy Taxi though. What is the point of the game? I just figured it was Simpsons and a racing game or something? Someone please inform stupid ol me :)

In Crazy Taxi you play a cab driver (fancy that) that drives around picking people up and getting them to their destination within the time limit. Lots of driving around like a maniac doing whatever it takes to get the best fares. From what I understand, Simpson's Road Rage is the same thing but with Simpson's characters (and cars...including Mr. Plow!). Also, it has multiplayer (Crazy Taxi does not).
