The movie ties in nicely with the menu screen. Essentially, Springfield is being invaded by wasps armed with video cameras, coinciding with the launch of a new version of Buzz Cola with a secret ingredient.
The game runs about three or four credit screens (which can be easily skipped through) and a quite nice opening sequence, where part of the plot is revealed. On the plus side, the on-line registration process, available during the download, is simple and quick. Make a cup of coffee, kids, it's a slow one. The double CD contains no less than THREE CDs, and took quite some time to install. The packaging could have been a third of the size. In typical style these days, the box contained a double CD case and a minimalist instruction manual. The game comes in a largish box with bright artwork.
Tested on an AMD Athlon 1.1ghz, with 768mb and Asus Ti4200 128mb GE4 video card, with a Logitech Wingman Formula Force USB (okay, a GT Force) steering wheel and a Nostromo N45 gamepad (ripoff of PS2 controller). The combination of boredom and a generous discount saw me purchase the PC version of the latest Simpsons game, The Simpson's Hit & Run.įans of the series will recall that previous videogame incarnations of the series have been at best ordinary, and at worst dreadul (remember the PSOne wrestling game?), so, knowing general response to the game was favourable, I took the plunge.
