As we all know, licensed games often run the gamut between bad and atrocious. But some are pretty good. The Simpsons: Hit and Run is a game that's pretty enjoyable, and with the cast of the show doing the voices, pretty funny too. 

I had this for the original Xbox. It's basically The Simpsons meets Grand Theft Auto, but of course less violent and less free. You'll do a variety of missions as you explore Springfield and save it from extraterrestrial invasion. 

The control of the cars is a little floaty, and the limited platforming isn't very precise. But the true joy here is just being in Springfield and hearing all the jokes. 

I never finished this, but I got pretty far. I think I got stuck on some mission that involved jumping the car in some insane way. 

You start the game as Homer, but of course you get to play as the whole family eventually, including Maggie I think. 

A nice game if you get to try it!
