The simpson games have always been fun to mess around with. But, as far as buying this game; there isn't enough to it the levels are short and the overall replay value of this game is weak. Dont buy this game, rent it on a rainy day. Im serious..

All I can say is "THIS BETTER NOT SUCK"
I'm hoping this is full of Homer driving through town drunk as hell & chasing down Mr. Flanders.

This game has fun for everyone. It is Crazy Taxi except one better. Crazy Taxi does not have any two player mode but Simpsons: Road Rage does. The graphics are not show stopping but they are authentic to the TV show. It is also enjoyable just to drive around the six huge levels. And to unlock the other drivers.
However with the good comes the bad the load time for the game is to long. However it is worth the of the load to play the level.
I WAS a fan of Crazy Taxi but now The Simpsons: Road Rage is replacing it. A must have for Simpsons' fans and Crazy Taxi fans alike.
a real review from someone who actually has PLAYED the game

(...) This game is really fun. It's a lot like Crazy Taxi, in that you drive around town, picking up fares (all recognizable citizens of Springfield), and taking them to their destinations. The faster you get there, the more $ you make.
It's easy to play, and there are a ton of short-cuts to explore, making the replay value high. There's also a two-player mode where you try to make more money than your opponent. There are also enough inside jokes to keep fans of the show laughing. The negatives are few compared to the positives: LONG load times, a short, boring mission mode, and a few glitches where you can get stuck in the scenery. (...)
A lot of fun

I don't know why magazine reviews are so hard on this game. So what if it is a rip off of Crazy Taxi? Crazy Taxi would be a better game if the Simpsons were in it. I love the graphics in this game. The colors are vibrant and pleasing to the eye. I wish the Simpsons characters were more 2D though. I can't get used to them in 3D. Their voices are clear and funny. The control is solid. You wont be crashing into things everytime you make a turn. The best thing about this game is just exploring Springfield. After watching the show all these years it's a joy to interact with it.
Simpsons Rule!

This game is awesome! The reasons that I gave it 5 out of 5 stars are:
1) The excellent 3d graphics
2) The variety of characters
3) The 6 HUGE parts of Springfield to drive/race in
4) The large selection of cars that come with the players
5) The actual character voices and common sayings
6) The actual places from the TV show such as the Kwik E Mart and others
The only downside is the long time that it takes to load. Other than that this game is great!
Somewhat of a disappointment

This is one of those "must rent" games. Clever for a while and never really able to evoke an emotion. It only makes the user think, "This is pretty interesting".
If you are not a big fan of the show you probably will not be as exicted to play this. Most of the main characters are available, they just have to be unlocked, which is achieved by accumulating points by picking up Springfield residents and dropping them off at particular locations.
Each character drives a different vehicle that pertains to the Fox show. Marge drives a Canyonero. Grandpa drives a Shriner's Cart. Reverend Lovejoy drives a bible mobile. They each have several catch phrases, which seem to repeat after three or four games.
The difficulty is very low and the boredom factor kicks in after 20 minutes or so. Plus, this game takes a long time to load into each segement.
A very quality rent for the Simpsons fan. Think twice before you purchase.
