It's true that the game is plagued by a couple of serious camera angle issues, but that's a forgettable aspect once you get to inflate Homer and make him jump around like a ping-pong ball. The reward? Hearing Homer say something like "Believe in yourself son! I know I don't", as he runs away while Bart fights the Lard Lad. Also, surprisingly enough I even managed to get beaten a couple of times and had to retry the level. Those are accessible only if you climb on a building or crane and the creature has the bad habit of becoming numb in wide open areas, where there's no way to reach his weak spots. There's one thing I really should mention, as it got me extremely frustrated while playing the game's demo? The Xbox 360 demo version of The Simpsons Game allows you to fight that Lard Lad as Homer or Bart, but it will be an extremely tough fight, since you can only take down the overgrown kiddo by hitting his weak points. Guess what? It turns out that the creator of the hilarious Springfield family, Matt Groening is the game's final boss? How's that for a tough nemesis? However, most of the gamers won't be expecting top class eye candy from a title like this, but rather pure humor and that Simpson-flavored irony we adore. Springfield manages to get deformed and destroyed after the attack of a huge critter called Lard Lad, so the next-gen console's power is put to good use.
Homer, besides inflating and burping, can also use his fists and transform into a red ball of fire thingy is he eats some peppers. If you like to keep it simple and just use Homer's renegade son, he'll wield a slingshot and use his fists to eliminate those Krusty clones. Sometimes, by collecting special pickups, Bart can turn into Robobart and perform some Robocop action, like shooting lasers.Īs Bartman, the little fellow can fly and glide using his cape and hang on trees and poles using a special rope. Meanwhile Bart's abilities rely on his alternate self, the superhero known as Bartman, a mocking replica of Batman (costume included). Homer's fatal ability is his green burp that can be charged into a super-burp if you're really into some explosive damage. Yeah, that crazy clown seems to be the ideal villain, along with those drooling Cyclop-like aliens, that always meet their doom when attacking Springfield. Homer, besides being annoying and mocking Bart, can inflate and start rolling around, killing those pesky Krusty clones. Each member of the Simpson family has a special ability, which will become useful at some point during the game. There's also a "God of Wharf" challenge that pits Lisa and Bart against a couple of crazy dolphins. In the "Medal of Homer" level, for example Homer and Bart are WWII soldiers, fighting in France, while in "Grand Theft Scratchy", the Simpsons start a riot against this title and in "Shadow of the Colossal Donut", Bart and Homer fight a giant "Lard Lad". However, they're not the gaming cults we've known so far, as they feature one or more of the four above-mentioned characters messing things up. We're dealing with a 3D action-adventure platformer that allows playing as Bart, Lisa, Homer or Marge as you enter the world of GTA, Medal of Honor, Shadow of the Colossus and even God of War. Parody is the middle name of the game, as EA's title manages to gather all famous titles from the last years in a big pile and mock them all.

The Simpsons Game is due for a late October release, but the Xbox 360 demo of the game is available right now on the Xbox Live so don't hesitate to download it and give the title a spin. Lisa, Marge, Bart and Homer will embark in what is probably their best gaming adventure so far and an experience that will put you through parody versions of the most famous gaming phenomena. That's why I went "woo-hoo!" when I found out that EA Games are about to release a title featuring the famous Springfield-based characters.

"Woo-hoo!" is probably one of the most familiar lines from the Simpsons TV show together with "Mmm?chocolate?" and of course Homer's trademark "D'oh!".
