To drive home the gaming-world referential humor, the debut of the title, which coincided with the announcement of the TV show's 400th episode, featured a number of promotional parody posters, showing Bartman Begins, Medal of Homer, NeverQuest, and Grand Theft Scratchy. Though little else has yet been officially revealed, EA promises the Simpsons family will be granted "exciting, all-new powers to save the world from rising chaos" as they journey through Springfield and beyond, take on villains and fight through parodies of a number of popular games.Ĭonsumer site Gamespot was granted an early look at the game and reported that the plot involved the family realizing they are "trapped inside a videogame" and "envisioning new powers for themselves" including Homer transforming himself into a Katamari-like 'Homerball' by engorging on food power-ups and Bart taking on the role of a caped Bartman.Īccording to Gamespot, game characters will be cel-shaded but rendered as flat to appear even more cartoon-like, and the game will also apparently feature drop-in/drop-out two player action similar to Konami's original Simpsons arcade game. EA first acquired the license to create Simpsons titles in late 2005. The game is being created in partnership with Simpsons TV show writers for what EA is calling a "hilarious, sprawling, and mind-busting storyline," featuring the full cast of series voice actors. ![]() ![]() After teasing the game with a Grand Theft Auto-esque countdown site, Electronic Arts has officially announced that it will be releasing a Simpsons game this fall for the PS3, PS2, PSP, Xbox 360, Wii and DS. ![]()
