>No video game is safe from an industry that's always chasing the hot new thing. Sure the Simspons Game is great with its unique, upgradable character abilities, and its hilarious self-referential cutscenes, but what about when the Xbox 720 comes out? Or the PlayStation 4? Nobody will want to play us, then.
Was Lisa right all along, /v/?
Maybe and she's what ruined the show.
No, the game was far from being great or hilarious.
>>339881661
Good games still get played decades later.
The one that are forgotten are the overhyped trash.
Take Fable, that game got ridiculous high scores, was super-popular and hyped beyond belief.
Ten years later people barely remember it exists.
>>339881661
It's not like it matters, any success The Simpson's Game might have had was a fluke as all but one game released on their name has been mediocre at best.
Now, what audience would The Simpsons have right now? what could it be about? how could Lisa NOT ruin it with her "ideals"?
>>339882721
but fable the lost chapters was good
Remember how we got a legitimately fantastic licensed Simpsons game?
Stuff like that is never going to happen again, not with their shitty mobile game making bank.
>>339882835
Fable has always been mediocre.
The reason of the hype was it being THE xbox RPG.
>>339881661
I'm slightly disappointed that Microsoft didn't name their console the Xbox 720.
>>339882721
This guy is right. There are people today who still play NES and SNES games. Or at least the good ones while all the shitty games are the ones left forgotten.
Lisa is right when she mentions ingame that nobody will want to play their game anymore but for the wrong reason. It has nothing to do with the industry changing or newer and better consoles coming out, it's because they're in a shitty game that people forgot about within a year.
>>339881661
I'd play The Simpson Game if I could emulate it or if it were on PC
So no, I dont agree.
>>339883817
You could probably emulate the wii version.
>>339883141
Fable 1 is still remembered by many.
The others are not.
>>339881661
Played the PS3 version with a bud. Good times.
Eventually bought the Wii version (haha yeah I know) for the different graphical style and to see how it holds up.
>>339883015
I think I remember people saying some of the NES and GameBoy games were not that good.
Maybe it depends all on publisher/developer?
reminder that nowadays:
>Barney doesn't drink anymore
>multiple characters have come out as gay
>Homer and Bart converted to Catholicism
>>339883015
it was just a reskin of Crazy Taxi
>>339884503
Road rage was crazy taxi. Hit and run was GTA.
>>339884503
No, that's The Simpsons: Road Rage. Hit and Run is a GTA clone and it's incredible. The references are plentiful and spot on and you can tell they researched their source material thoroughly.
>>339884395
>>Homer Remembers the wild youth back in the 90s
Got damn that's the one.
>>339884395
>STEAMED HAMS
>tfw never again will you come home from school and watch simpsons reruns from 5-6 on your local fox affiliate
My girlfriend works at EA as on artist on Simpsons Tapped Out and an unannouncedStar Warsgame.
>>339884395
>very hard working father
Did you even watch season 2?
>>339884395
Other than Selma, who else came out as gay?
>>339884957
Just pop in a DVD or stream them!
>>339884989
Star Wars Tapped Out? Fucking end me.
Of course unless it's just another mobile Disney/EA licensed app as usual.
Also what's up with that Family Guy mobile game? Is it just a Tapped Out (ahem city builder) clone?
>The Simpsons keeps going on and on and on
>Even after that kinda decent movie
>Pic related had an amazing send off
>Pic related knew when things were starting to get stale and ended at a good time instead of becoming the Simpsons
>>339885425
Futurama was canceled. Also I guess you aren't aware of the movies or the new seasons.
>>339884696
I liked that they even had the Escalator to Nowhere. Great attention to detail overall
>>339884395
Maybe my memory is fucking with me, but the 50 Cent one and Homer finding Alec's and Kim's hidden cottage wasn't that bad.
>>339883015
>That last fucking mission
If you didn't know how to drift or if you made even one mistake, you might as well give up.
Didn't help that they made you drive the maximum possible distance and if your car took too much damage, it exploded.
>>339885747
I don't remember 50 cent but the other one was right on the border of when Simpsons went to shit
>>339885747
There have been some decent episodes, but probably not even enough to fill one season. And, well... it's been a long fucking time since S9.
>>339885323
They did an entire episode where Marge was revealed to have been bisexual in college or whatever and then she makes out with Lady Gaga.
I honestly thought the Simpsons game was dull. Then again maybe I was spoiled by Hit and Run
>>339885747
the 50 Cent one wasn't great (Bart sneaks out to a rap concert), but the Basinger/Baldwin one was passable.
The Kid Rock one definitely doesn't deserve to be on the list on the side, though
>No listenin'.
>You hear me?
>>339885425
>>Pic related knew when things were starting to get stale and ended at a good time instead of becoming the Simpsons
What's this, 2004?
>>339884395
Imagine going back in time and telling Matt Groening what the show would become. Imagine handing him that issue of Playboy with Marge as the covergirl.
still the best simpsons game 2bh
>>339883015
only the arcade game is worth a damn.
>>339885425
>Final episode makes re-watching the series over and over the actual canon outcome
Pottery.
>>339885323
Music teacher
Comic book guys cousin
Smithers after being Burned one to many times
>>339885425
actually it was canceled. but just as well.
>>339886146
I managed it as a kid but I played it again last year and just couldn't manage, that last mission is horrible
>>339886512
>the first episode played right after the show ended when it first aired
bravo CC
>>339886290
Lenny and Carl being a couple has been a running joke since the early seasons.
Do you not even remember Mount Carlmore?
They never discussed it.
>>339886146
>Set To Kill
>>339884395
>The Simpsons meet Andy Dick
Andy Dick's a legit villain in real life who killed a VA on that show, why would he be a guest star?
>>339884957
Don't fucking remind me
iirc The Simpsons reruns got replaced by Dish Nation andTBBT
>>339886146
Yeah, I love Hit and Run, but it has some bullshit difficulty here and there. The side races were bullshit too, you can barely move the other racers, but they can knock you the fuck around, you pretty much have to drive flawlessly or hope they get in a crash to win. I still beat all the races and missions, but damn it could be unforgiving.
>>339884957
>grow up on NY border with Canada
>CBC would play an episode every weekday at 5
>only times they would interrupt it were for breaking news orNO! The Olympics have preempted my favorite shows for the last time.
>around ten years after I started watching, they replace it with fucking Ghost Whisperer
probably one of the reasons my life went to shit, desu
>>339887005
it's not Andy Dick's fault that Hartman married a crazy junkie
>>339886473
the only thing bad about this game is there's no sequel
