Where is the Simpsons: Hit & Run Remaster?

[@edwardhilton4344]

I think the game needs to be remade in certain aspects rather than remastered. 1) Joining all the maps up to each other and adding changing weather systems would be cool to make Springfield more immersive. 2) Adding extra missions would allow more original characters to be showcased. There are so many greats that are only cameos or flat out missing from the OG game. It could also allow for a greater variety of missions. 3) More cars and costumes would be great. 4) I reckon it would also be interested if an option to change characters at certain points in the game would be interesting, like in Arkham City. 5) Honestly, I wouldn’t update the graphics too much. There is a very nice art style and charm to what there is already. Maybe there could be a bit of a “shine” added to them, but I don’t think they should change up too much, as it could rob the game of its charm.

[@martymcfly4654]

If they won't make a remake the least they could do is add it to the Xbox backwards compatible store on Xbox series s

[@Teeqz5]

And pc

[@centralvalleygrower1106]

Licenseing

[@Ghiton1512]

If you got an Xbox 360, that’s about as close to Xbox backwards compatible

[@sullysboy]

it needs to be on PS5 as well, I miss playing this game sometimes.

[@djmexicanodetx2195]

I remember playing this on ps2 after school. Great game, I hope we get a remaster of hit &run!

[@dimitricruz8151]

The problem with it EA owns the Simpsons licenses for video games that stopped hit and run 2. And it stopped hit and run being made until contract expires. Then when it does expire Disney would to approve Activision well now Microsoft would want to remastered hit run. The Chances are very low.

[@bigshrekhorner]

There is actually a person that is doing a remake/remaster mod of the game, and it seems good so far!

[@nobody971]

only if reubs would release 😒... i'd prefer a official release but i feel this game would never get the justice it deserves!

[@x5ilco]

Seems good and seems fair so far, but old physics and game mechanics are not following over, all made ground up so the og driving will be no more

[@daffy_schmuck5828]

There's 2 people both look fantastic but different styles one guy is making it more cel shaded like the show and even remaking every cutscene to have the hand drawn feel

[@santiagogimenez2812]

"reubs" se está encargando del *Remake* . Mientras que "El Gato Del Tejado" está haciendo el *Remastered* "reubs" is taking care of the *Remake* . While "El Gato Del Tejado" is doing the *Remastered*

[@bigshrekhorner]

@@santiagogimenez2812 I don't understand Spanish

[@RazzyXM22]

I hope Hit & Run can get that SpongeBob treatment but I just want to mention El Gato Del Tejado on KZbin who is remastering the hell out of the game to point that they a reanimating cutscenes to be like the Show. Mad props to them especially for being a one-man project they deserve as much attention as they can get

[@bazomic]

To get around this...just make a sequel? Don't need a remake/remaster. Just make another game like it.

[@onemariobro]

Issue with this game is that it will NEVER be remade since EA would rather use Tapped Out as the pinnacle of the Simpsons games than this. And if EA is at the helm I sure as hell will believe that they will attempt to resell it at full price but with bugs and micro transactions out the ass

[@Chapmike]

Companies: "We have to remake as many games as we can." Gamers: "OK, so what about that old game we really liked?" Companies: "Shut up, it doesn't matter."

[@Num1MarioFan]

6:27 at least you can still play it on PC

[@cl4za]

The cheats on simpsons hit and run were AMAZING 😂

[@davididealistmark2]

Option 1: Just a really good remaster is perfectly acceptable! Option 2: A remake would need a few things. 1: Extra missions. 2: Fixed camera. 3: Fully connected maps. (people have made a mod of this) 4: A touch up on the graphics, like new facial expressions. (also, I don't want the graphics to look like the Simpsons game because it's a bit of an eyesore) There's only one thing I would not change. The car control. That I would leave as is.

[@charlottestreet3301]

Better cars. Also in tge simpsons hit and run mods the family sedan has a roof so that cool

[@956To512]

One of my fav. Games all time they need too remake asap

[@TimeMakerMan]

I would lose my mind for a hit and run remake that looks like the 2007 game

[@YakkoWarnerTower]

This game is totally fun it's actually one of my favorite games of all time but it will be obviously expensive for Fox and Disney to make a newer release for PS5 or the Xbox.

[@rarityclarity3724]

The explanation for why there’s no remake starts at 5:08

[@Frosty05]

I was born in 2005, kinda hits different realizing this game released 20 years ago and was a big part of my childhood and gaming journey as a whole. It definitely needs a good remake, which won't happen with modern day Activision, sadly.

[@Frosty05]

@BNSY Photography yeah, I got a PS2 when I was like 3 years old or something. Along with it came plenty of games including this one. I actually got to play GTA games, but was heavily restricted obviously and only got to play it because of my car interest. The open world and radio, felt like a whole other universe, and it set my music taste too, or at least a big part of it. Hit and Run was GTA without the adult violence, so it was heavily preferred of course and I loved it as well. Shame they never made a sequel for later console generations, as a kid that would've been perfect. But the next revolutionary game i remember playing was GTA IV. The driving and the graphics and the world atmosphere.. just wow.. it felt like I was playing and directing a movie haha.

[@SpongeyBubby]

I mostly grew up with The Simpsons Game for the PS3 but I played this on the Xbox as well with my sister

[@davidcroci12]

Hopely we wil able to see this longed fot remaster/remake soon.

[@jackmonaghan8477]

There are some mods out there that are attempting to remaster the game (one in particular that's trying to make the cutscene animation 2D).

[@Diablogaming944]

Honestly in my opinion this is more entertaining than gta vice city and san andreas

[@nicholasvideogametoys8548]

I want this game to be on the ps5

[@TheSlayerZer0]

I want a remake

[@KibblezanBitz]

This game will not get a remake and the reason is named Apu Nahasamapeemapetilon.

[@Vulcano96]

I've been wanting this game to be ported to modern consoles since the past x360/ps3 era alongside achievements and maybe even online multiplayer for the bonus races if the netcode is even good. I heavily agree they should have the camera to be more diagonal similar to GTA SA/4/5's. That would be very useful to have. Probably maybe add more cool moves other than kicking probably, I think that would make the combat less boring. If they could, I really wouldn't mind new extra missions as well as more small easter eggs. And heck, they can actually connect the entire map now instead of splitting now that technology has improved compared to 2003. I feel a lot creativity would go into that. As well as improving on more better facial expressions when characters are talking in-game like the BFBB remake did. I'd personally go for the cel-shaded look or something similar that would look more appealing but at least would capture the show's artstyle without it being too jarring. Probably forgot other things but that's what I would love to see if it were to get a remake. I'd even pay $40 for the whole game.

[@SharpyMC001]

More likely to be closer to $80 if it ever happened 💯

[@megamanmegamanmegamanmegam8725]

I agree, like it is a shame how The Simpsons hit & run is still stuck on the older consoles and also stuck on pc disc too while SpongeBob himself. Finally gets his very good and old game aka battle of the bikini bottom to newer consoles and even on steam too which it would be cool to see The Simpsons get their older game to the modern consoles and even on to steam also.

[@rossprince]

THIS GAME DESERVES A REMAKE BECAUSE THIS IS PURE AMAZING!!!

[@WikiGamesMedia]

Since Simpsons a are up to 30+ seasons in there series they can put more onto hit and run then what they had on there since 2003 n if they have more character goin onto probably a remake or remastered they’ll be more then 20 mission or 30+ more side quests or so on but if they do all that then who knows when they’ll release a day with a simpsons having more map more areas to explore more missions more side quest n have online crazy crazy fun adventures n who knows maybe it be 9/10 for every1 to have so much exploring to have on 1 game that it probably be a whole lot better then GTA5 online but that’s my theory of what I would call a great awesome hit n run of all time game n if they brought simpsons hit n run to classic PS+ we’ll we still have enough fun for a game since it would be coming to a PS+ classics near us

[@HarryGunnerson84r]

I'd sell my soul for a remaster lol

[@hyperyami396]

Where is the Remaster?! More like where is the modern day remake of this legendary game with upgraded graphics, character creation, open world capabilities, races, easter eggs and of course make it similar to GTA in terms of doing whatever you want outside of the main story missions. I'd love to be able to create my own character and rampage in springfield. Whoever owns the rights to the Simpson's franchise and games is doing the world an incredible disservice by not making any more major games similar to Hit & Run. forget about a remaster of an already established game, make a sequel or better yet some new type of game that's three times better than this one.

[@Buck_Bentley]

The last bit about Disney is sadly cope tbh. I am coping too. Reasons why: 1) Disney doesn’t care who works on their games. After all they work with EA (who is arguably worse then Activision). The same EA who is currently making Disney bank off of “The Simpsons: Tapped Out.” The same EA that *almost* lost the StarWars license for the backlash they received for Disney owned property, “Star Wars BattleFront II.” Personally don’t think “Simpsons Hit & Run” 2 or Remastered will happen. 2) Not cause the company that made Hit & Run doesn’t exist anymore, but because Apu played a major role in the game and the creatives behind the Simpson’s are dead set on never bringing him back again. :(

[@royalreigel1698]

Honestly the two studios I would pick to replace Radical entertainment in the remake of this, would be either Vicarious Visions or Toys for Bob

[@diezweiazzlacks862]

This game remastered is a dream

[@nicolo4786]

I heard they’re doing a remaster tho

Back in the day games was way better and more challenging compared to todays age games take us back to the old times 🙏🏽😭

[@matthewbolitho-jones]

I like The Simpsons: Hit & Run

[@theshyguitarist4536]

The demand is there. The nostalgia bug makes gamers do crazy things, like pay inflated prices for remastered versions of their favourite games from times gone by (not saying that's a healthy thing for the industry perse, but its reality as of 2023). They are literally sitting on a cash cow and just squandering the opportunity.

[@pongo7886]

to anyone looking to play this on modern systems; if you can track down the pc version of this game it runs just fine on windows 7 and 10. plus it has a surprisingly big modding community

[@jordanhowell7798]

EA also has the video game licence to The Simpsons which is another sad reason why this game with never get a remake.

[@Felix_2194]

The Simpsons: Hit and Run Remastered for PS4/Nintendo Switch🔥

The Simpsons: Hit & Run usually also Ps4 Remake?

[@FORRT9513]

There is a youtuber called reaubs remaking the game himself

[@jeremymklinger]

I heard about that after posting this, yeah, I definitely need to look into that more

Let me know what you think after looking into it

"One of my absolute favorite games of all time!"❤

A crime this game was not remade

[@turkz3227]

The studio and the licensing isn’t the main issue… the main issue is one character and that’s Apu…

[@switchking5257]

Someone is remaking hit and run (though it won’t be released for obvious reasons)

[@YaBoiJoosh]

Not gonna lie I don't really think a remake or remaster is necessary, we already have a pc version of the game with a modding community actively making stuff for it. Also Cosmic Shake isn't a sequel to BFBB, it's just another game, people call it a spiritual successor but honestly I don't agree with that either

[@joshuas8582]

If sonic team could hire fans to make sonic mania - whoever owns the rights here can do it to

[@ReubensStuff]

I think we have a higher chance of seeing it happen after 2025. Why? The Simpsons: Tapped Out is closing in January 2025. EA is losing their grip on the Simpsons license so Disney may give the Simpsons game license to a more competent company, and may try to work with Activision to straight up buy the license to this game and give it to THQ Nordic or something. Its unlikely but it has a higher chance of happening now that EA is losing the license.

[@ramlipad]

More missions and more area and more characters more cars yeah the gaming industry will crash

[@Felix_2194]

Problem voice Simpsons

[@confuddledveryiam2703]

Disney would also probably want apu removed so that may also be stopping them from the remake as the story would have to be altered with a different character

[@umarrazvi]

Well it wouldnt have to be if Disney werent mentally crazy. Simpsons is all about sterotypes but they act like they are saints and socially morally correct to say minorities should be exempt. Shame wokeness / lefty politics got involved. On surface they pretend they are all about niceness but behind that its evil, trying to divide us.

[@NickPerson]

It sucks they just been milking Tapped out since forever and haven't felt the need for more games on the Simpsons. Guess these companies can get kind of lazy when they have a outcome source. But hey, there is a fan made remake being worked on, with the developer is trying hard to do things like remake the cut scenes to be animated like the show and just be a proper remake, now if this remake won't be taken down like yet another fan remake, that's time that will tell. But yea, at this point I just kind of accepted there won't be a new Simpsons game for a long time, so I am also making my own Simpsons themed games. Guess we can work our way around these things in the long run.

I been saying this for half the ps3s lifespan

Actually Disney does not own the Simpsons license for videogames, EA does, look it up

[@noobstoise1024]

Not for nothing, but there is a fan port of The Simpsons Hit and Run on the Switch and Vita

[@milovegas123]

What are you talking about this game having the same driving mechanics as road rage?! Those cars all feel basically weightless and go way faster. And I’d hope the remake wouldn’t look like the Simpsons movie game, think that cel shading looks way worse then hit and runs look

[@selph8278]

its getting a really cool fan remake right?

[@qwandale_dingel]

Yeah but its not public you won't ever be able to play it

I’ll just point to EA and say “that happened”.

[@blushslice]

I lost hope in a remake after the Disney merger, think it’s up to fans to remake H&R

[@jeffreysolano5717]

It’s a long shot but what if there’s a chance that it might get remade maybe it might be announced for the games 20th anniversary in 2023 GTA trilogy was for GTA 3 20th anniversary goldeneye remastered was announced for the 25th anniversary if im not mistaken maybe stellar entertainment the studio that remastered burnout and need for speed could be the one behind it and so far it seems like EA has been listening to the fans

I've never seen a channel living under a rock more than this one and no you dont only need 6th gen hardware to play but it's definitely not on a storefront and no i didnt watch the video but still

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

First of all: There is a tutorial in the console versions that keeps interrupting you while you play level 1. But that is completely absent in the PC version, making it the best one. Second of all: The Simpsons IP in video games is under EA, I believe. And given the current state of the show, I highly doubt they'd be willing to do it given how they removed Apu due to political correctness, and having him as a featured playable character in the game would be a major factor as to why they would turn down the idea. Third of all: You were born in 2003? That would make you 20 as of this year. Man, I feel old!

I would love to have an open world simpsons game, but if I really think about it it would be kind of boring. Like, it wouldn’t make sense for Homer to k!l1 people like in GTA. So what do you do? Just roam around Springfield? I don’t know I have mixed up feelings about it.

There is never going to be a Hit and Run remake because white women on the internet hate Apu

The simpsons game? That one’s awesome, would love to see it make a comeback

[@kasemahasema]

Never coming

[@jam9852]

Its a great game but hit and run will never be remade for the following reasons 1. Apu played a big part in the original games story however because he's now been cancelled by woke culture I can't see him returning ever again not even in a cameo role. 2. The game was made by a activision company which no longer is in business the same people what made crash of the titans I think. 3. Lastly EA owns the simpsons games Licence and won't make anything except the simpsons tapped out for phones if the game was remade it would have microtranscations up the ass.

[@Hey-Its-May]

A remake? So they can ruin it like with Crash and Spyro? Same with Battle for Bikini Bottom. I don't think so.

[@jeremymklinger]

That’s true, it would need to be an extremely passionate and talented studio doing it, or just a port.

They can’t remake it because Apu is integrated in too much and the woke mob has made it so we can’t have nice things. They’d have to redo heavy segments and cut out all the Apu parts, at that point you’re just short changing your audience.
