Shelved solely due to the fact that I was sold a shitty disk without knowing, and the game is technically unreadable after the 3rd level.
Anyway, just based on first impressions, The Simpsons Game isn't too bad, but it's not particularly thrilling, either. I could easily see myself loving the game's rather simple 3D platforming/brawler elements if it wasn't for the fact that the writing is pure garbage (a byproduct of this game releasing far after The Simpsons' prime). I played the DS game a lot as a kid, and the story is largely the same thing, just with a 2D platformer style instead.
I'm definitely going to finish this game at some point; I just need to either have my disc surfaced or find another copy (preferably the former to the latter considering this game isn't necessarily cheap by Xbox 360 standards).
