Simpsons Road Rage, The
© 2001 Electronic Arts
This is a Simpson's Crazy Taxi spin-off. For those who are unfamiliar with Crazy Taxi, the object is to pick people up and take them to their destination as fast as you can. Traffic and pedestrians just get in the way. What you end up with here is a reckless and amusing driving game with the humor of the Simpsons (hence the TEEN rating). The real actors' voices make the experience closely resemble the TV show. Controls are easy to use, and there's enough challenge to keep you addicted.
