anyone playing Simpsons Road Rage on Xbox?

I have to return it to Blockbuster today and I think this is one I will have to go buy. Lots of funny dialog to keep superfans happy. I like when Homer says "Out of my way, Jerkass."

On the Missions section, if you complete all 10, you unlock a special new vehicle....

head to head is very fun, but I noticed that some cars are faster than others. My 7 year old son beat me using Mr. Plow! I had the Canyonero. And Otto's School bus drives like a bus--slow to start and stop. Although the other laws of physics be damned.

Anyone know what the last mystery vehicle is to unlock?

It's a pretty good game. It's almost identical to Crazy Taxi, but has many many more drivers to choose, and being that it contains Simpsons characters, it becomes more enjoyable if you're a Simpsons fan.

It's Homer! Driving the car built for Homer (the one he designed at his brother Herb's factory.

Also, no doubt you've noticed the question mark on the character screen. Play the game on Thanksgiving, Halloween, New Years, or Christmas, and it will be replaced with a holiday character, like Halloween Bart on Halloween. But enjoy it while you can, because the next day, it's a question mark again.

Okay guys, so you want to let me "borrow" your xbox so I can try out this game? :-)

"Send one x-box to 'Sorry Dude'....."

Kind of makes you wonder what else the xbox will do, if it knows the days to unlock secrets and things like that...

Well, if you have a GameCube or PS2, it's available on them also.

Yeah. So, like I said... send one xbox/PS2/gamecube to "pathetic dude"........

I've still got the original PS. No, not the PS1... it's the PS that came out way back when it was the price that the xbox is today.

It wasn't called the PS1 until they redesigned it when the PS2 came out. It was just called Playstation.

Holy Moly! I didn't realize my owning an original PS would cause such a big stir! Cool Man! :-) -E.

If you don't want to wait for that day of the year in order to use that character (and you don't want to change the date on your system), there is a code you can enter on the title screen or something that'll activate the character. I'm too lazy to look it up, but if you type "Simpsons PS2 Cheats" into Google or something, I'm sure you'll find a page with it...

Cheats"

Ok, for the cheaters out there(and those who don't feel like going into their console's bios to change the date) go to the options screen, and while holding L1 and R1 enter the following codes for the following characters:

Soapbox car: Press triangle twice, square once and circle once. Nuclear Bus: Press triangle twice, square once and X once Smithers: Press triangle twice and square twice. Halloween Bart: Play on October 31 OR press triangle twice, circle once and X once. Christmas Apu: Play on December 25 OR press triangle twice, circle once and triangle again. Pilgrim Marge: Play on Thanksgiving OR press triangle twice, and circle twice. New Years Krusty: Play on January 1 OR press triangle twice, circle once and square once.

There are similar codes for the Gamecube version, and I would assume Xbox has them as well.

I just played it and it was quiet enjoyable. I specially like the game control it was very easy to guide the cars around. "wavking" wrote in message news:nWR58.4781$[email]...

I play it and pretend I'm doing research for the comic. That's right... research.
