About this product

Product Information

Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa are the last hope for Springfield in The Simpsons Game for Wii. Featuring cartoon-like, cel-shaded graphics and 3D environments, The Simpsons Game offers players a chance to control each member of the flawed family (even baby Maggie) in a series of 16 "episodes" spread across four acts. Each episode parodies films, television shows, and particularly video games, with the latter skewering such mainstays as Grand Theft Auto, EverQuest, and the publisher's own Medal of Honor series. Two playable family members are featured in an episode, with solo gamers able to freely switch between the pre-selected pair to take advantage of a character's special attributes. Cooperative play with a friend is also supported throughout the animated adventure, which mixes elements of platform hopping, projectile firing, and puzzle solving.

Homer's abilities befit his slovenly persona: a belch of acrid gas and the power to transform into a blob to bounce or bowl over enemies. Bart fires a slingshot and transforms into Bartman, while Marge barks orders into a bullhorn and dons a policeman's cap for added strength. Lisa, on the other hand, disarms enemies with her sax and calls on the "hand of Buddha" to unleash various attacks. Each character can also activate special moves by filling up an energy meter or by finding power-ups. Character-specific collectibles are available as well, such as Duff bottle caps or Krusty coupons, which unlock one of two trophies per level. Players can even discover multiple video game clichés, from double jumps to invisible walls, each narrated with particular disdain by Comic Book Guy. The Simpsons Game features a storyline crafted by the show's Emmy-winning writers and dialogue voiced by the original cast members.

Simpsons Game for WII by an 11 Year Old Player
I love the game, it's funny, great animation. I love the Simpsons and expected great things from the game. The annoying part of the game so far, is that I get so close to winning a game, and can't quite make it. The tutorial could have been better; and this game doesn't give you many helpful hints. It doesn't tell you how you can improve your chances of winning. On a scale of 1 to 5; 1 being easy and 5 being hard, I'd rate it a 3, and would recommend it to kids who have had their WII system for at least a month--if it's your first game, it will be frustrating to try to use the controls and play the game.

Its Simpsons all the way but camera is a distraction...
I know this is the Wii and The Simpsons Game is sort of a sit down game to begin with. I just like The Simpsons, though, and just got a Wii and had to buy it. Got it cheap ($16.00) and glad I did. It has nice environments (based on 10 hours of game play) and sounds but it is difficult to see the environments with such a bad camera that doesn't rotate very well as you move through the levels. That's really all I've to say about it at this point. There's good humor and bad camera angles. I'm hoping for the best. UPDATE (1/11/10): Despite continued camera issues, my 4-year-old son and I finished the game! It was entertaining. As some have noted, it is one of the more violent Simpsons games but it seems less violent due to the fact that the characters are "cartoony" and their "super powers" are humorous. And, really, no one dies. You just come back to life! Great buy for Simpsons fans. More entertaining that watching the Simpsons Movie.Read full review

Great game but challenging
This game has excellent graphics. You put the game in your Wii and it seems like you are watching the tv series. You start out as Homer and then Bart. You start out with Homer having a dream about chocolate bunnies who attack him. He has to eat the bunnies to advance thru the level and get to the white chocolate bunny which he has to eat. The next level you can be Bart or Homer and explore a musuem.Each level of the museum was fun and challenging with objectives you need to do to advance thru the game.We are now stuck in the space section of the museum and are stuck on how to scare the bully on top of the rocket. This is the only part we do not like about the game,is that we are stuck here trying to figure out how to scare the bully and advance thru the next level.You can also be other Simpsons characters like Marge and Lisa,but we did not get that far in the game yet.So far, this is a fun game, but a little on the challenging side. It is somewhat like a puzzle, that you need to think on what to do to get thru each level.I would recommend this game to any Simpsons fan or anyone who likes games where you need to think a little to get thru the game.Read full review

Great Rental - Cautious Purchase
VISIT http://blog.graduategames.com FOR MORE GREAT REVIEWS or to see Videos and Pictures to go along with this Review. The Simpson's Game is yet another game starring America's beloved dysfunctional family. It is a licensed game that features all the voice actors (there's over 8,000 original lines for the game or something ridiculously high) and some animated segments/shorts. Basically, it's a really long episode of the Simpsons, as an episode it's spectacular....as a game, it's short. Gameplay: 6/10 Pros: Each family member has a different skill set, the levels offer a great variety and reference many classic episodes. Cons: Gameplay is a heavy copycat of 3rd person platformers and even includes a troublesome camera and resulting frustration. Graphics: 8/10 Pros: Playing this game is like playing the TV show. The game captures Springfield and the look of the show better than any other Simpsons game before it. Cons: The cartoon / cel-shaded look definitely doesn't push the PS3 or Xbox360 or is all that impressive up to other next gen games. Sound/Music: 9.5/10 Pros: The Voicework and effort of the actual cast in this game pays off. The story is great and the quips during gameplay to the actual script itself is fantastic and hysterical. Lasting Appeal: 3/10 Pros: You'll absolutely want to play through the story and enjoy the script/writing and humor. If you really care about collecting things...there's PLENTY of that. Cons: I beat the main game in about 3 days and 8 hours (Great rental - terrible buy). Now that I've seen the story, the gameplay, collectibles, achievements, etc. will not bring me back to the game. I don't care about collecting Homer's bottle caps, Bart's posters, etc. (though the Video game cliche's are pretty funnY). I'm done and it was fun while it lasted...just not $60 of fun. Average: 66.25% Tilt: -1.25% As a game, the Simpson's Game isn't very good. It is an amazing Simpsons Episode with a phenomenal script, excellent voicework and decent gameplay to get you through it all. It's a great licensed game, but unfortunately if this game wasn't the Simpson's and didn't have the money and quality voice work and humor, it would probably drop an additional 10 pts or so. If your a fan of the Simpsons, you gotta rent it. If you're only a gamer, forget it. Verdict: 65%Read full review

Fun Game. Best in Co-Op Mode
I bought this game when my girlfriend was visiting because I heard that it had a great co-op mode and was pretty easy for all ages. What I heard was true on all accounts. We played the entire game in split screen co-op mode and had a blast. It makes doing all of the tasks a lot easier and allows both characters to basically free roam the entire level. My only complaint is that it is a short game, since we beat it together in about 9-10 hours. If you are simpsons fan and are looking for a good 2 player co-op game, then I would suggest getting this.
