It was the summer of 2008, after much pestering our mum finally caved and bought us the new Simpsons game on PS2.
The Simpsons Game first came out in autumn of the previous year. After much hype and talk from our friends and cousins, my brother and I stopped at nothing until we got our hands on it. The game follows the Simpson family – Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie – who learn they are part of a video game and are each given powers to beat Matt Groening, God, and even killer dolphins, in order to save Springfield.
When we first started this game, we found it easy. The first mission as Homer was a piece of cake, literally. We thought we’d get through it with no bother – even with our lack of gaming skills at the time.
