Well, if we're talking games...

The Simpsons Arcade Game is a work of art and if you don't have it on XBLA/PSN then you're seriously missing out.

The two on the PS1 are so horrifically abysmal they must never be mentioned again.

Road Rage is a blatant, and I mean blatant rip-off of Crazy Taxi. That's not to say it's bad though, because it's not. It's actually quite fun if you're in the mood. It's far from perfect mind, but it's still enjoyable.

Hit and Run is GTA for kids. And it's glorious. Driving around a fully 3D (albeit slightly inaccurate) version of Springfield is great fun, as is smashing stuff up, punching aliens and revisiting all those classic episodes with the vehicles you can drive. Lot of fun to be had with this one.

The Simpsons Game is... better than it should be. It's pretty much a standard third-person platformer, but because it's been made with something similar to, though not quite, 'care', there's a lot to enjoy. The plot doesn't make a lick of sense and it does start to wear out its welcome by the end but the humour carries it surprisingly far and the fact that it's playable in co-op is added fun.

...any I'm missing?
