From the classic arcade game to their appearance in Lego Dimensions, The Simpsons has a storied history in gaming.
In an age where most video games tend to get ported or remastered at some point, there’s a dizzying array of PS2 games that still haven’t been released on modern platforms, even if they were released on other platforms at the time.
Some games you just know are going to stand the test of time, being released and re-released multiple times over the years, or will simply have a legacy that’s built to endure. Meanwhile, there are other games that, for whatever reason, are simply never coming back.
Aye..this is why Emulation is important.
The Punisher was soo damn good. Nailed Garth Ennis take on the character very well. For me still one of the best comic book adaptions ever made.
Where is NOLF!
That they couldn’t find a way to work out the legal stuff to bring it back is one of the greatest tragedies in gaming history.
Def Jam. Great and fun game they will never be re-released. There is just no way to secure all the copyrights for the tracks, voices and likenesses used in this game.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
Hit & Run is the best. We totally need a remake... or even a back compat release.
No Virtual Springfield? Though tbf it was more of an experience than a game, even though it did have some little gameplay in some parts. Fun for fans though.
Hit & Run was great, my only complaint would be that Homer didn't have enough missions, the game could've been a bit longer and bigger.
I myself liked the DS version of the Simpsons game much more than the one on main consoles, it was a proper 2D platformer game, I recommend.
Hit & Run is in dire need of a sequel. They could do so much more with the upgraded tech.
Hit and Run was by far my favorite, even though I loved the Simpsons Arcade. I even had the full old school cabinet in my house at one point! A video store in my town went out of business the guy sold me the arcade unit for $50 😳 I couldn't say no! Good times.
I totally wish we could get a new Hit and Run sequel or similar open world GTA style Simpsons game. I loved exploring the iconic places in game. I'm so glad I live near Universal Orlando, the Simpsons themed parts of the town are amazingly detailed and fun to be around, even if the rides suck.
