Published by: Electronic Arts/Fox Interactive Somewhere, somehow, somebody cut some corners. Now, I say “port” despite there never actually being a Road Rage cabinet because it’s like they were working off an original project that never came to fruition. Itself a perverted variant of Crazy Taxi, it was the filthy port that no one asked for and no one wanted. God, I miss the arcades! You people killed ’em! You stopped leaving your house! You’d rather play online! Man, to hell with online! You all deserve to burn!Ī decade later, we got The Simpsons Road Rage, an apt reflection on the sad state of the arcade scene. The cream of the crop was, of course, the arcade game from the early ’90s. The Simpsons marketing machine has pumped out a bevy of videogames that can best be described as disreputable. As with any other phenomenon, a cavalcade of merchandising has followed in its wake for better or for worse. Its relevancy over the years could be charted along a sine graph approaching zero, but no one can deny that it has been a great influence on American pop culture.
