Video Game Reviews of Simpsons Road Rage Platinum Hits
Customer Review: MEH, NEEDS WORK 7 OUT OF 10
Summary: 4 Stars
Simpsons Road Rage is about how Mr. Burns buys Springfield Transit services and replaces the buses with nuclear power, so to save Springfield you must start your own taxi service, drive people where they want to go, make money to buy transit services back, and avoid running out of time during your money-making excursions. The game's overall quality is decent but unfortunately there are issues that must be addressed. First off, the graphics. The characters don't really look like cartoons, rather ugly character models that didn't take full use of the console's power. Next is repetition. Sometimes the game gets repetitive during taxi missions and the environments are somewhat bland. Next is the destruction. Seriously EA, the destruction in the game isn't very impressive. This game has some overall good value to it if you don't have anything new to play when it comes to driving or you're just bored waiting for new cooler titles. Or, if you you're a rabid Simpsons fan this is definitely worth a look. I had a good enough time with it, but it lacks depth and meat to it.
Description of Simpsons Road Rage Platinum Hits
Commuters have had enough in Simpsons Road Rage! Mr. Burns has bought all the public transportation&jacked up the prices, and Springfielders are angry!There's road rage, and then there's road rage Simpsons style! "D'oh!" Monty Burns is up to his greedy ways again. He's purchased Springfield's transit corporation and heinously jacked up the fares. Refusing to shell out for the new rates, the rage ensues. You'll take on commuters and jam-packed back routes, all in an effort to help buy back the corporation before time runs out.
More than 25 Simpsons characters climb behind the wheel or wander the streets begging for a ride. Careen through timesaving shortcuts and take on terrain including hills, mountains, and forests. Wreak havoc in five Springfield neighborhoods that include landmarks such as Moe's Bar and the nuclear power plant. Busy traffic and wayward pedestrians confound your rage. However, two-wheel leans, speed starts, power slides, and other cool car physics help you release that rage.
Multiple game modes let you go head-to-head in two-player split-screen action that challenges your opponent in a race for the next passenger, or you can steal his or her passenger midride! Complete up to 60 unique passenger deliveries in story mode, or take a leisurely Sunday drive through the fair Springfield. A bonus system lets you unlock cars and specific characters, while intuitive menus make this game easy to play. As Homer would say, "If it's hard to do, it's not worth doing!"
