    In the end, what you are presented with is a very solid Simpsons title. Its humor, as stated, goes beyond just pleasing regular and hardcore Simpsons fans. So aside from the camera, the game is just find-diddly-ine to go on out and pick up.

    Despite its shortcomings, The Simpsons Game is actually pretty good fun. At times it's frustrating and at times it's so funny that you just don't care.

    The Simpsons Game doesn't quite stack up to its current gen counterparts in term of visual beauty, but the fun is definitely still there despite the fact that the camera can be cumbersome during hectic action scenes.

    Fantastically funny and an unwavering faithfulness to the source material help make this rather average 3D action adventure worth a furtive glance – it's just a shame that it's over so quickly.

    Though an enjoyable romp, there's no way to recommend the PSP version over one of the console iterations of The Simpsons Game.

    On the presentation side, with colorful, cartoony graphics and contributions from the voice actors, it should satisfy the legions of Simpsons fans. But as a game, it's decidedly mediocre-at-best fare, with levels that vary in quality and pedestrian platforming and beat-em-up action.

    The presentation values are immense, but the whole inner workings of the game are nothing short of a disaster.

    The PSP version of this game lacks the fun of the other versions of this game. Confusing objectives and the lack of a hub world make this version the The Simpsons Game not very fun.… Full Review »

    Terrible. Full Stop. This game is bad from the word go. No map whatsoever. Confusing. It's often unclear how to achieve the said goal. Right from the first mission, there are design flaws that involve incredible amounts of repetition and patience. The camera angles / camera control are nothing short of a disaster. If you are a Simpsons fan and have to get this game, I advise getting it on a home console as this handheld version will have you tearing your hair out. Seriously, from my game collection spanning over 200 games across all platforms, this is the game that I absolutely wish I'd never bought. The only reason I score it a 1 instead of 0 is because of The Simpsons name.… Full Review »

    Let's also give it a 6 then... Nice game, nice graphics, nice cutscenes, but the controls are driving me mad. The AI isn't that intelligent also... Homer should stay on his couch, pathfinding isn't his strength.… Full Review »
