User Rating: 8.6 | The Simpsons: Hit & Run PC
Don't go into this game expecting overly deep storylines and twisted plots. It's not that kind of game. It's pure mayhem in a box. You get to run around as the various Simpsons characters, driving strange vehicles and wearing odd clothing, crashing into things while performing mission tasks. The game levels are quite large, with a lot of little nooks and crannies to explore, and interesting things to find. The levels are stuffed with gags and humor. The actual gameplay is just plain fun. When I first installed this on my system, I started playing at 8pm. When I next looked at the clock, it was 4am. I haven't lost that much time in a game in a very long time, not since the Sims first came out. I have to ding the Simpsons: H&R on the camera and controls. The camera does not like to be pushed in, and if you move your character so that they have their back to a slope, for instance, you will have a very hard time facing directly away. The camera view keeps forcing the character to turn, so that the camera would be in open space. This makes some of the running around missions a bit difficult to do. Other than that, a great game, huge amounts of fun, and worth the price.
