My only exposure of hit and run was at the hospital ( was in and out of hospital for my chronic illness), they had a starlight console system with a ps2 and a gamecube inside. I used to sit for hours on that thing to distract me from the long stays in hospital, thats why this game is so near and dear to my heart.

In the UK, Simpsons Hit and Run has the record for being the second longest game in history to remain consistantly in the Top 20 charts... Over three years. Second only to Robocop on the ZX Spectrum/Amstrad/C64 of all things. DId Radical also do the much hated SImpsons Skateboarding? They really loved jumping on the popularity bandwagon back then!

I didn’t get new games often when I was a kid so when my parents got me Hit and Run as a treat for being good at the dentist when I had some teeth taken out, I felt like the luckiest kid in the world. They even let me have the rest of the day off school to play it! Next day I went into school and there was a popular kid saying he had the game and he was talking about all these features that I knew weren’t in it so I called him out on it and he was proper embarrassed. Hit and Run will always be one of my childhood favourites. I replay it once a year. The atmosphere is palpable! The music (which you criminally didn’t mention!) is insanely catchy and fits the tone so well. And that gameplay is so fast and crazy addicting. Every time I replay it I end up blitzing the whole thing and getting 100% in a couple days. It’s that damn good

I never completed this game as a kid because of the last mission, only level that wasn't skippable I think. When I went back to it completed it first try, I was dreading that level for my whole playthrough getting PTSD flashbacks to missing the alien ship by like a second and remembering the pure frustration I was having as a kid. Being able to complete it so much easily when I was older rubbed salt into the wound, no joy, just disappointment in child me.

I first found out about this game in the 3rd grade when a friend told me about it in class, he mentioned you could steal cars and jump a volcano(the flaming tire pile) and that blew my mind I was such a big simpsons fan. The next week I went to GameStop and they had one copy for the GameCube and the game is now part of my top 5 most favorite games of all time and I still have the same copy that I bought 11 years ago. 😄😄😄

Oh wow, I entered that same K-Zone competition too! Needless to say I did not win. I ended up picking Hit and Run when it came out on Platinum and it was really quite hard to find (think toilet paper in 2020). Now that I brought the PS2 out of the box my better half, also a massive Simpsons fan, is finally getting her first chance to play this game for the first time - I'm insanely jealous.

I like the story a lot, at least the concepts of it and how it impacts the setting. Over the course of the game, as the story becomes more complex and chaotic and relating to treehouse of horror, the levels progress through the time of day, beginning in the morning with homer, and book ending once again with homer at midnight in a true treehouse of horror level. If you listen closely, the Homer 2 theme is just the "Homer's Day" theme from Homer 1 and Marge, except sped up and played with horror type instruments like the Theremin, electric guitar, and coconut shells. This progression through the time of day is so great, and even if people dislike the alien plot for being boring, surely the setting changes is something they enjoy. Hit and Run is so nearly perfect, I just wish they had more time to finish Homer 2, polished up the rest of the missions in the game to make progression better, and if there weren't a lot of rewrites throughout development, it could have been made a lot better. I really hope the Donut Team remakes Homer 2 soon. It's my favorite level in the game, but those missions need to be fixed. I love how hard the last mission is, so I'd like that to stay the same, but there should be more levels throughout the game that have cars with that kind of wonky driving. Also the last 3 missions shouldn't be the same mission again. ALSO there's a bug in the final mission that makes the mission harder than it should be, instead of adding time, the mission resets the time once you escape the alien sedan, making it better for you to not run away from it as soon as possible. It's little things like that that make Homer 2 so buggy. I remember clipping out of that level so much.

PLEASE EA WE NEED A REMAKE
