The Simpsons Game features an original storyline written by The Simpsons writers Tim Long and Matt Warburton. In the self-referential plot, the family discovers that they are forced to participate in another The Simpsons video game. Similar to the show, the game pokes fun at popular culture, other video games, and Electronic Arts, its publisher.
The game follows the five Simpson family members—Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie—who learn they are part of a video game and are given superpowers to resolve several situations. Eventually, they must save their 8-bit predecessors from Will Wright, and the creator of their video game character selves, Matt Groening. The Simpson family travels to four scenarios in parodies of other games to collect key cards used to infiltrate their creator's mansion and ultimately to save their predecessors from destruction to reverse their generations old ban on video games.
Configuration
No options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings are recommended for this title.
Known Issues
1. When you start the game using a controller that isn't using "XInput", a message pops up saying that your controller is disconnected and pressing "start" didn't work. The workaround is simply go to the pad settings and select a controller that doesn't exist, save, return to the pad settings and select your old controller again.
2. Upon entering Matt Groening's mansion, you can't move Homer and switch to Bart. Restarting the emulator fixes the problem.
