I had written this for an NGF sample review, but to be nice to Andross, i'll post it for him.

People that love racing games and the Simpsons, are probably going to be fond of this game. It's called the Simpsons Road Rage. I'm pretty sure EA created this game, and Fox Interactive designed it. Of course, i could be wrong. It's a racing game, and it's pretty much 1-2 players. It's rated E.(For Everyone.)

The Simpsons Road Rage, has a simple storyline and plot. Montgovery Burns has bought the Bus Transit, and replaced normal buses with Nuclear Powered Buses. The people of Springfield realize the danger of this, and make their own Taxi service to get enough money to buy back the Bus Transit from Mr.Burns.

The starting charecters you get are: Homer, Bart, Marge, Lisa and Grandpa. Homer rides in his Family Sedan, Marge rides in her Canyonero, Bart rides in the Honor Roller, and Lisa rides in her Electric Car. There are about 17 charecters in all. Each has their unique strength and weakness on the road.

The Gameplay of this game is pretty good. It's smooth, and at the just the right pace you want it to go. The Gameplay get's an 8/10. The sound is good, but not great. Sometimes you don't hear anything at all. But still, the charecter voices are awesome. A 6/10. Now for a jewel of this game, Graphics. This game kinda uses the potential of the Gamecube's Graphic System. The charecters and their vehicles are possibly the best detailed thing in this entire game. The towns and buildings are good too, but just not like the charecters through my perspective. The Graphics get a 9/10. Now to sum up the game, it has some good points(A misson mode, a head to head mode.) and maybe some faults i can't find.(Yet.) And on certain times in a year(Thanksgiving, Halloween) you get special charecters. Maybe you should get this game if you don't have it, and wait till Thanksgiving, it's almost here. The game get's a 7/10 total.

Gameplay:8/10.
Sound:6/10.
Graphics:9/10.
Game:7/10.

I think it's better, the controls are very basic. And i like it a lot more than Crazy Taxi.

And if you want, I hear you can run over a few pedestrians.
