4.0 out of 5 stars At last! a good simpsons game! 4 Nov 2007
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
It is about time a good one was made, and this one is great fun! The voice acting uses all the real actors and the lines had me in stiches. What makes this game great for me is the fact that it is 2 player Co-operative with lots of Wii mini games that are good fun to play against a friend. In all, this is well worth the money in my eyes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tragic disappointment despite fantastic graphics 17 Sep 2008
Fun: 1.0 out of 5 stars   
Appallingly unplayable in many places, a hugely disappointing, criminal waste of fantastic graphics, vocal and writing talent.

Several sections, even in so-called 'easy' mode, can only be passed by the brute force application of tedious hours spent repeating the same task literally hundreds of times until by accident you succeed. And since you can't bypass them, you will be tearing your hair out in frustration as you watch your character slowly die yet again, putting you back to the start.

Sometimes puzzles are simply incomprehensible and you will often need to resort to walkthru guides to progress.

You run back and forth in front of a vital lever (button, helium point etc.), frantically pressing the 'use' button as the 'pull' icon appears and disappears, but it's a mystery to the game - "He's getting shot to pieces running around there, what CAN he be trying to do? He must want to jump on top of it" (where it becomes unuseable).

To picture this control system you need to imagine getting so utterly wasted you can barely stand, so blind drunk you've smacked into a lamp post without even noticing, then attempting to stagger home. It's like walking on a tray held by a sadistic giant, as he tips you randomly and you lurch off in different directions. Added to this, he twists your head around crazily so your viewpoint veers away from what you want to look at, constantly disorientating you. This is the game's maddening camera placement, and since the joystick moves you in relation to the camera, not the direction you're pointing, your steering is completely compromised. Other times, when you need to view something, it will simply refuse to give you the viewpoint. There might be some scenery in the way but why not make the adjustment?

3.0 out of 5 stars Good and Bad 3 Nov 2007
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
Okay, straight to the point. The Simpsons Game is not a fantastic game. It doesn't have the depth or challenge or originality required for it to be considered a great game. Take away the license and judge the game on its own merits and it is a strictly mediocre, seen-it-all-before, by-the-numbers platform game with weak puzzle elements.

However, it is still very much worth at least renting. The game looks like it was ripped straight out of the cartoon and is very funny throughout. The game actually used the real characters' voice actors in the game rather than just sound-a-likes and they even had the show's animators to draw some of the cutscenes. This game thrives on its humour and image, and they're both done beautifully and it almost makes up for the lacking gaming experience. Almost.

It is definitely worth a play if you're a Simpsons fan, which you must be or you wouldn't be looking at The Simpsons Game, right? I wouldn't say it was definitely worth a full price purchase, but if you could rent it for a week, borrow it off a friend who did buy it, or pick it up cheaply second hand, then you will have a good few hours of fun.

3.0 out of 5 stars Animal abuse to the max 26 Aug 2012
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
I loved the game but in some levels it really gives off the wrong impression. This game is normally focussed on younger audiences. Grand theft scratchy where you go around shooting cats and mice is fine but not really suitable for kids and the worst one has to be the level where you kill 100's of Dolphins and electricuting one of them which i feel is inappropriate for younger kids....although its only cartoon gives off impression that killing animals is fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great 21 April 2011
By ddd433
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
The game is great. The controls take a short time to et used to but after that are easy. I don't see what other people are complaining about, because the levels are good and the idea is great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be better... 26 July 2008
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
The word that can simply describe this game for me is 'Meh'.
As the title says this could have been an epic game. unfortunatly i was slightly let down. The graphics aren't great (although this doesnt bother me to an extent, but I know it will for some people), but the real problem i have with this is the controls. The instructions are very small and don't stay on the screen for a great deal of time, therefore it was common for me when i started playing this game to only realize that there was instructions just in time to see them disappear again.
There also seemed to be times when i was doing the controls but nothing happened with the charactors.

On the upside there is some new clips of the show and the plot is relatively okay from what i've played so far (although the alien invasion plot is hardly original)

Overall, this game will give you somethig to do. It will keep you busy and entertained and will certainly give you a few laughs, but those with little patience will certainly hate this game. I personally think that this game has nothing on the Simpsons Hit and Run game from a few years ago. I would certainly reccommed buying that instead of this game. And I certainly wouldn't recommend buying this game for full price (I think i got this for £18)

Delivery was fast and reasonably priced. We were unable to play the game as it broke the wii console, looking at other reviews this appears to be a common problem.
