Woo! I just used the ignore button for the first time. This page looks much more civil now

*goes on ignore spree*

*feels lonely*

/not on the previous poster may I add...that would be just cruel and uncalled for

Screams "rental". Actually, screams "make a friend rent it and just happen to pop round that night".

As usual EG are being a bit tight with their points. I've been playing this for just over three hours now, and I honestly think it's the best platformer on the 360 (I realise there's not much competition). It plays really well, is one of the best looking 360 titles I've seen and has the added bonus of being Simpson related too, which means it's laugh out loud funny in places. Strangely, the demo they used on the marketplace was a really bad choice. I wouldn't base your opinion entirely on that. I'd suggest that this is more of a 8 out of 10 title - and certainly worth a rent at the very least.

The camera is crap, otherwise good fun. So basic, but very well written. A six sounds about right to me, but if you really like basic platformers (and those people are around), there isn't anything really wrong with this, either.

“Some will also criticise the visuals, which - outside the cartoon sequences - don't really do the source material justice”

Give over Mugwum – after playing only the demo – I’d have to say that I can not really see how the Graphics could be any better for a Simpson’s game. Plus the screenshot’s in the review, for me, back up those feelings.

Only problem I have (well, technically not me) is that my 5 year old nephew loves playing this (demo) and will play it for what feels ages (come on kid, I got PGR4 to plough through) without EVER having a chance of being able complete the demo. This is due to the skill and forward thinking required to destroy all three spots on the back of the “boss”. For me the demo seems very easy and a bit soulless – although there seems no glaring weakness.

To be honest the game is probably not aimed at me or him – but somewhere in-between.

For me I think I’d prefer a game based on Family Guy or American Dad – not sure how you’d make a good game out of the license ( perhaps expanding the Passion of Christ 2: Crucify This into a Stranglehold parody would be good – I would guess being Stan to be a much better game premise) – but I much prefer FG & AD over the recent Simpson’s.

Demo owned, Game owns harder. You are a peenarse if you don't like it. MP Co-op is awesome.
