This is gameplay of The Simpsons: Road Rage on the PS2. As you can see, it's very much a Crazy Taxi rip-off. So much so that Sega actually sued EA over this game. As you can see, Level 5 is not Sega's first victim in the lawsuit game.

Yes, it is a blatant rip-off, but if developers sued every time a game was deemed a rip-off, gaming would have died off a long time ago.

If I remember correctly at the time, this is when Sega first entered gaming as a 3rd party developer. They wanted to be the number one third party developer out there, and I remember thinking at the time how petty this made Sega look by suing EA who was the biggest at the time.

Overall, this game is actually a little more forgiving than Crazy Taxi. It also has some mission modes. This is actually only my second time ever playing this game, but if the first three missions are any indication, the mission mode isn't that hard. They could, however, get harder, but the tree I played into it were pretty easy. Overall, nothing spectacular here, but certainly not a terrible game either. As far as Simpsons games go, this was the first decent one since the awesome Simpsons Arcade game in the 90's.
