It’s been 20 years since one of the first surprisingly good Simpsons game was released.
A "The Simpsons: Hit & Run" remake has just been completed, but due to possible copyright concerns, you can't actually play it yourself.
It's time for Homer to get back behind the wheel.
No, thanks. They need to make a new game instead. They could do alot more with the advanced tech.
You know they could do both right?
It's not like it's some rule they could only do one or the other ?
The Simpsons Hit & Run already has an unofficial remake made by a developer Reubs who has done it for fun.
The publisher should just get together with him. It would save them time and money and give him a financial reward for helping bring back the hype for what is one of the best GTA style games.

We’ve been asking for this forever and while I would love it, I doubt we’ll get it.
Chuck it onto the “needs a remake” list alongside MGS etc.
I'd love it but it's in licensing hell by all accounts. Seems rights are tied up everywhere including now defunct companies.
I'd prefer a new Simpsons game. Hit and run while fun relied to much on racing. Eh. To this day I would love for them to just make a straight up open world Simpsons game. So much could be done it would be dope af. Last I knew ea had game rights. Good luck
With emphasis on the planet and that these days. A captain planet open world game could be dope af to.
No thank you.
I think this is massively viewed with rose tinted glasses.
I picked up a PS2 again a couple of years back and Hit&Run was one of the games I got alongside it. Yeah…rose tinted glasses.
Absolutely, definitely was one of my most played PS2 games alongside San Andreas & SOCOM.
Some game should stay in their respective generation.
DualShockers Writes "The time has come for The Simpson's Hit & Run 2, here's why..."
I kinda hate this whole "it needs this, not this" stuff
y'know more than one thing can be done? it's not like the simpsons has a law about 1 game per generation
Nah. Remake first
Seeing it expanded upon, bigger, all the maps joint together, more skins and vehicles from the newer Simpson seasons which have came out would be fantastic
If they do a sequel they can improve on the map and again expand while also including Shelbyville
This is what I've always thought. They could do so much more with a new game. I'll never understand why gamers want to buy old games repeatedly instead of new ones.
Have you seen a single person say "I want a remake and nothing else, please remake but no sequel" ?

1 post above this is someone saying "remake first"
it's literally the first thing?
I've seen a lot of people say it about a lot of different games. It's very common.
Probably because a lot of folks don't trust current devs to do a certain game/series justice.
If EA announces a new SSX game right now, I'd be skeptical. Because current-day EA seems pretty clueless about what fans of SSX want.
If they'd announce a straightforward remake of SSX3, I'd be hopeful and delighted. Because that game was, and still is, pure gold.
You're trying to tell me it's very common to see people specifially ask for remakes, and mention that they don't want any more? like specifically to want them not to make more?
Yeah this was a good game. If I had to make any minor complaints it would be that the game could've done with more missions and the world being a bit more open, and add some more side stuff to do, other than that it was a fun game. And because of the cartoony colourful graphics it looked better than Vice City.
If there's a sequel or remake they would only need to add the things I said above along with some refinements and better graphics, the rest is pretty much fine as it is.
I'd love a sequel. They could do so much more than they could in the original.
This is one of those games that really needs a remaster.
