Overall, this is a pretty good game. Much better than I would have expected. The best part is that the game carries the typical Simpsons humor. I recommend that you spend some time just driving around in Springfield to check out a lot of things that you will miss during missions. It took me a while to spot a sign in front of a trailer park that said "14 days without a tornado" for instance. The game is full of this type of humor. If you are a Simpson fan, you will like this stuff, as long as you take the time to discover it...The graphics are OK and true to the style of the TV series. In fact, it sometimes seems that the game looks better than the series. But of course, comic-style graphics do not really push the xbox. So I can't quite share the enthusiasm of one of my fellow reviewers.The gameplay is pretty good for the most parts, although it does get repetitive. Overall, envision a simplified version of the Grand Theft Auto gameplay (although without shooting... violence is still there, but comic style). Unfortunately, some of the missions are hit and miss and penalize small mistakes way too much. Often, a little mistake can make you start over your mission, and often, that mistake may be caused by another car that just happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. I would have appreciated the level design to allow to make up for those mistakes in some way, rather than making the player start over. Also, a lot of levels can not really be finished at the first attempt, because they require that the player knows where to turn (among other things). This means that often, player skill is less important than the player's memory. It also means that one fails to complete levels without really being at fault.This may sound like I do not like the game. I DO like the game. But it is a shame that small gameplay issues keep this game from being truly great..
