    Load time can be as slow as Homer's wit, but that's small beans when Road Rage is one of the wildest – and funniest – rides around. [Jan 2002, p.126]

    We know that The Simpsons Road Rage is neither original nor groundbreaking but it is enormous fun and that's what important, isn't it.

    Clearly designed by people who by-God know their Simpsons minutiae...An excellent-looking, perfect-sounding, perfectly-playable arcade game, albeit one of many missed opportunities.

    If you've played "Crazy Taxi" before leave Road Rage on the shelf, everyone else who isn't a Simpsons fan, should invest their money in something else because there is really only lasting appeal for the fans and even then it's cutting it close.

    What makes this game rise above its humble beginnings are the tons of unlockable characters and the six different environments.

    The Simpsons Road Rage is fun for short stretches of time, but it's a definite rent-first title.

    You'll still have to deal with irritating load times and janky collision detection problems (it's easy to get your car stuck on objects and buildings). [Mar 2002, p.141]

    Simpsons has a good racing game but is still clunky and gets repetitive. But overall this game is fun and better than the other versions.

    Good game. But does tend to get repetive over time. Its a miracle I managed to beat it. I guess it was because of the unlockable things. Good game. But does tend to get repetive over time.
