We're talking about a Simpsons game but I PROMISE that we will end up talking about tits by the end of this post. Trust me ;) haha I've decided to get back into Simpsons Road Rage last night (on Gamecube), and boy, just like a few other things, those memories should have stayed in the past. It hasn't aged well! If it wasn't from being a Simpsons title, I doubt we'd even still talk about it in 2023. Actually, I know we wouldn't! Simpsons road rage was basically a copy of Crazy Taxi (they got sued by Sega for this!), and also the first Simpsons title to be released on the PS2 (although I've only ever played it on Gamecube) I think when I first played this I was too youung to understand that just because the game had the Simpsons attached to it didn't automatically make it good. And now that I am playing it many years later, I can see that the gameplay is actually quite repetitive and gets old quickly. But at the end the day....if it was copying Crazy Taxi, it was meant to be more of an arcade title than a console title. An arcade games are meant to be played only a few minutes at at time. When I got bored after 10 minutes of driving in Simpsons Road Rage, I was feeling disappointed in my experience. But if it had been an arcade game, I would probably have felt that I had a good time. Just need different expectations I suppose. BACK to my initial point. On one of the drives, I needed to drive the mayor to a strip club and he says "I need to see some titties"! I was like...WHAT? I am a pretty big fan of the Simpsons (actually just acquired the Simpsons Futurama crossover comic) and can't remember ANY sexualisation or mention of boobs in the Simpsons. Futurama, American Dad and Family Guy all find different ways to sexualize women, but the Simpsons? I can't recall many of them. We never see generous curves, very few talk about sex, etc. The sexiest it got was probably the butt of that babysitter when Homer wanted to eat the gummy bear, remember? Heck, even that babysitter was far from being the babysitter you'd see in comics now LOL! She was wearing jeans, small boobs, short brown hair...that's not screaming SEX! (flip the pictures to see more!) Am I crazy? Did I miss a bunch of sex talk on the Simpsons over the last 30 years? lol please comment if I'm wrong! ps: I plan to soon play the GOOD Simpsons Game on GC (Hit & Run) lol! I'm already hoping my memories of those won't be ruined (and I don't think they will!)
