While buying some jewels for Mr. Burns, Smithers bumps into the Simpson family...causing one of the diamonds to fly into Maggie's mouth! Rather than just taking the jewel out of her mouth, Smithers and his bone-stupid henchmen (that he's always had but you never see on the show) kidnap Maggie! It's up to The Simpsons to get her back.

To do:
There are some unused character graphics, please add them.

Unused Graphics

Filler Tiles


These tiles are used as filler for the player graphics.


These are the filler tiles used for the first half of the object graphics.


This 2x2 filler picture of Krusty is used in the latter half of the object graphics. The correct palette is unknown and may not exist in the ROM anymore.

Inanimate Carbon Rod

This is found with the rest of the thrown item graphics, but it's not found anywhere in the game.

Text

This should show up when picking up a health item, but nope.

An early version of Smithers' boss dialogue. This uses a unique dialogue balloon and is in all caps, unlike the final version.

An unused dialogue string. Definitely meant for level 3.

Weapon Icons

These appear to be status icons for a bomb, a bottle, a can of soda and a slingshot. They were located in the game's graphics, near the character portraits.

Unused Music

This song is hidden in the game data. It isn't available in the game's built-in sound test, but you can listen to it by loading the game romset in M1 and playing sound code 0xA9. There is speculation that this was an unused boss theme for Smithers, which would be used before the final fight against Mr. Burns. Plus, every time the song loops, it starts to play a little bit faster than before.

Version Differences

The Japanese version is markedly different than other versions. Most of the changes are for game balance issues.The PlayStation Network rerelease of the game gives you the option to play the Japanese version, so it features all of these differences.

Scoring

The Japanese version adds two trailing zeroes to the score.

World
Japanese
The Score Ranking screen was adjusted for the extra zeroes. The character heads were moved from the score to the rank number.

These zeroes were added to accommodate the Japanese version's more dynamic scoring system. In the World version, every enemy defeated is worth just 1 point. In the Japanese version, certain enemies are worth more, as are bosses:

Bonuses

The Japanese version gives players a vitality bonus at the end of each level.

The two bonus games have time bonuses in the Japanese version. These aren't present in the World version.

Game Mechanics

It's possible to extend health past 100% in the Japanese version. Picking up food while at full health gives the player bonus health (shown in yellow). It's possible to extend it even further (200%+), in which case the bonus will be in green.

In the World version, weapons can't be used in the air. This was fixed in the Japanese version.

Other changes:

  • The enemies in this version seem a bit more stupid compared to the World version.
  • In the Japanese version, you must press the attack button in front of a food item to collect it.

The Simpsons: Road Rage

Simpsons Road Rage Tcrf

is a 2001 video game developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. It is one of a series of games based on the animated television series

Simpsons Road Rage Tcrf Game

The game has many similarities to Sega's Crazy Taxi, to the extent that Sega sued the developer and publisher in 2003 for patent infringement.

Mr. Burns has bought all transit systems in Springfield and has begun to overcharge everyone for the transportation services. Even worse, the buses are nuclear powered, thus irradiating whoever rides it.

The citizens of the city (managed by the game player) must earn money by driving cars around town in order to regain control of the transit systems. The game contains 17 different drivable/collectible vehicles, six starting locations (five of which are unlockable), and 10 different missions. In order to collect the vehicles and unlock starting locations, players must earn progressively more money for each vehicle or starting location they want to get. In order to complete missions, players must do certain things (such as knocking down 12 baseball team mascots in 45 seconds or running into Gils within a time limit).

To earn money, players must drive around a vehicle for a given amount of time, picking up passengers and taking them to their destinations. Any of the vehicles that the player has collected can be used as taxis. Players have to avoid certain hurdles, such as other vehicles that spin out of control, rocks, flying street objects, Smithers's car, Mr. Burns' nuclear transit buses, and houses on difficult curves.

The game features six locations familiar to Simpsons fans, which have varying levels of difficulty for completing tasks.

The Simpsons: Road Rage contains the following tropes:

  • Artificial Stupidity: The buses in the game crash into things themselves, and crash into you all the time. The introduction in the game's manual attempts to justify this by claiming Mr. Burns gave the drivers 'free reign to wreak havoc' all over Springfield.
  • Big Bad: Mr. Burns. He usually appears in his limo (driven by his partner Smithers) to stop you from progressing.
  • Breaking the Fourth Wall: Near the end of the introductory cutscene, Bart says to just start the game already.
  • Continuity Nod: Arguably the strongest source of praise for this game is the various winks and nudges to the Simpsons universe, such as various sight gags and the vehicles the playable characters drive (including the unlockable Mr. Plow truck).
    • A lot of the characters have specific interactions with each other that you would expect based on their relationship in the show and everyone says 'hi' back to Dr. Nick after his Catchphrase. Try to find all of the special interactions!
  • Drives Like Crazy: The point of the game, just like Crazy Taxi, is to drive your charge to their destination quickly. Some passengers will specifically ask for a destructive ride and give you a huge bonus if you destroy a certain number of objects before you arrive at the destination. Other passengers, however, will offer a bonus if you arrive before hitting less than three vehicles.
  • Holiday Mode: If you play the game on Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day or New Year's Day (Or just set the system clock to those dates), you'll get access seasonal variants of Bart, Marge, Apu and Krusty respectively:
    • For Halloween, Bart is wearing a Frankenstein's Monster costume and his Honor Roller is painted like a jack o’lantern.
    • For Thanksgiving, Marge is dressed like a pilgrim and her Canyonero is painted in autumnal colors.
    • For Christmas, Apu is dressed as Santa Claus and his car is painted a festive green and red.
    • For New Years, Krusty is wearing a tuxedo and conical party hat, and his car is decorated with confetti and champagne bottle decals.
  • Kids Driving Cars: Bart and Lisa are able to drive vehicles despite only being ten and eight years old, respectively, though they're limited to just driving the Honor Roller and the Electaurus.
  • Loads and Loads of Loading: Another major criticism among critics, other than its clone-status mentioned above. We're talking 50 seconds of loading for a task that only lasts for 20 seconds.
  • Self-Deprecation: In Simpsons tradition. The game opens with a cutscene of Bart playing a game in the living room, to which Homer tells him that the game is just a waste of time. The music from the game is also music from Road Rage, and the tiny parts of the screen visible seem to indicate it is, indeed, Road Rage.
  • Shout-Out:
    • If you do a good job bringing Krusty the Clown to a destination, he'll remark 'Boy, that was over faster than Chevy Chase's Talk Show.' Krusty will also criticize a bad ride by negatively comparing your driving skills to Mickey Rooney's.
    • In the Entertainment District, one of Bart's reasons for heading to the Ice Cream Parlor is to look for Betty and Veronica.
