For example, Bart vs. the World.

No Mario 3, but it has it's moments. It is hard though.


Thank god for that Edit button, huh?

Well, it'd be better (IMO) if the thread was called "Games that aren't that bad" so it's a little more general. This is just an organizational thing, so we don't end up with 50 pages of posts before we really need to.

On topic, I never got too far in any Simpson game until the Hit-and-Run era (save the arcade game).

I always thought the game would make a kickass episode of the Simpsons however.

Ever since Homer started working at Burns' power plant, the plant has lost money. By sending his family on a trip around the world to pick up cheap Krusty treasure items he can put the family in mortal danger, wiping them off the face of the Earth! Too bad that Mr. Burns wasn't counting on trouble from Homer's son Bart.

I liked how Mr. Burns had all those cheesy relatives who we'd never seen before the game and who haven't appeared since, especially Fu Manchu Burns.

Was that the game where you occasionally became Bartman and flew around? I don't think I could ever get past like the second level of that damn game...

I actually beat that one, but I could never get the super good ending. I'd always miss one or two of the Krusty Treasures, usually one the Hollywood ones.

You know, instead of say, just shooting them.

Despite having little to do with the Addams Family, Fester's Quest wasn't that bad.

I remember Fester's Quest. I haven't played it in like....10 years though. I think I lost the cartridge.

I never actually beat the game either.

That game too had it's moments...I beat it, anyway.

Path of Neo totally destroys it though. Especially that "alternate" ending...

I've never played Path of Neo... Neo weeps...

I actually used to say "Neo weeps with no eyes" in public. Yeah, I would've beaten myself up too.

Kenshi from MK could totally beat up Blind Neo.

Well I don't get that since the game was great. Yes when compared to other graphical games the Simpsons really suck but I remember this game was great.

Also all simpson games have this kinda hardness. I remember Virtual Bart on the SNES where you did Road Rash/ Mad Max just to get home to watch Krusty. Or even baby bart swinging on trees.

This game was funny with all the Burns. I just wish they intergrate this with the cartoon.

I have heard the plot for the movie is that Rupert Murdoch suddenly decides he hates the Simpsons, cancels it from TV, recalls the DVDs from store shelves and steals the master tapes. Matt Groening confronts him, and Murdoch shoots and kills him. Meanwhile, a rip in the 2D/3D reality continuum allows Homer & Bart to escape into the real world. They team up with Chuck Norris and Syd Lexia to defeat Murdoch and save Springfield.

OK, so I just made that up. But that would be so cool. You know, for me.

Don't forget the part where you guys run out of pudding and decide to explore your sexualities. You don't know that I stole a peek at your "script", but I did.

In the words of River City Ransom: *BARF!*

EDIT: Not to imply I'm against men exploring... ew... I mean, it sounded like a gay cowboy reference, which is what the "barf" was refering to. Question

I just realized another slick part about Enter the Matrix: Ghost/Niobe MacGyvering a wooden stake out of a chair just by kicking it.

That'd be great it were an infinite supply of STEAKS. Neo's a bit scrawny anyway and could use a protein boost.
