Talk Anyone playing Simpsons Hit & Run???

Just got this game the other day and it is a RIOT! The way the gameplay is setup you definitely think it's for a kid but if you play for just five minutes and hear some of the adult comments that are made from the characters...this game ain't just for kids.. lol.

It reminds me of GTA in the way the game is setup. You've got your missions that you're supposed to do but unless there's a timelimit on it, you don't have to do the mission until you want to. You can just drive around town, explore, do bonus missions and try to find out all the little gags and extras that they threw in. For instance, you can buy different outfits for the characters that you play, different vehicles, etc. I made the mistake of purchasing "Homer - Casual" which is basically just Homer in his underwear. lol. So I went around the level running around in nothing but my underwear. LOL. That's the kind of thing that'll keep you up at night. <shudder>

This game is seriously fun though. Most of the missions are pretty easy. Only once or twice did I have to retry a mission. That's fine though, this game is meant to be fun and it is a blast!

Right now I'm on Level 3 playing as Lisa and it looks like the plot line is finally starting to come through...should be interesting where it goes from here.

The game is fun on the pc (the voices and sounds are excellent), but my only gripe is that controling your character outside of the car is a bit ackward... instead of using the mouse to look around and change direction like other similar games, it's all done on the keyboard. Maybe I just haven't gotten used to the play-control yet... overall definately a fun game for a Simpsons fan.

I am playing the game on a GameCube. It plays very well and is fun! i had gotten up to level 4 where you play Marge, but my son wrote over my save file, so i am starting over. This time though i am going for 100% completion on each level.

The game is very fun and i would recommend it to everyone.

You can setup the mouse to look around for you like other games that are viewed in the 3rd person perspective...I'm not in front of my gaming machine right now, otherwise I'd tell you how to set it up. But it's in the options there somewhere.

Currently I'm on the level where you play as Lisa...let me just say that the Malibu Stacy convertible rocks!!! lol.

My wife actually showed interest in this one.

Has anyone played Simpson's Road Rage?

Which comes most reccomended by the gaming elite lurking here?

*feel free to talk amongst yourselves*
