I wrote a jokey fanfic for this video game back in 2013 that got unexpectedly well known, I see screenshots floating around on tumblr sometimes. I also closet cosplayed a character and the blurry photos of teenage me are also floating around somewhere out there on the internet.

That aside, this game is FANTASTIC, the emotions it causes in you as you realise what the actions of you, the player, and the character you are playing as (or are being played by as it seems) truly mean for your surroundings, is unexplainable. The character designs are inspiring and amazing, the songs SLAP so hard I still get pepper steak stuck in my head to this DAY so many years later.

This game, is epic. Me and my older sister took turns to do missions and mess around the levels, its involved and sprawling, and as a kid I was able to play it for hours without getting bored.
The cars are cool the story is fun and entertaining, the little easter eggs and references to the show are delightful, the costumes are perfect, the soundtrack is fun and great at putting you on edge when it needs to.
I have a vivid memory of going to the local library, finding cheat codes online, or ways to figure out cheat codes online, then going home and testing them out on my ps2. I wrote down the button combos that worked in the notes bit of the game manual, and I used the HELL out of the one hit wrecks cheat and the press horn to leap cheat. I made it my mission to find ways to go oob way before I knew what oob was.

Anyway, this game is iconic and timeless, I have nothing but fond memories for it.
