The Simpsons is a franchise familiar to well just about everyone so is it any wonder that EA has finally stepped up to the plate to deliver a truly next-gen Simpsons experience?

The game has everything you’d come to expect from a Simpsons game- the sound bytes recorded by the voice talent from the show and an accurate representation of Springfield and it’s diverse inhabitants.

Having played the demo on Xbox Live I can say that this game is a VAST improvement from the previous mediocre Simpsons games we’ve had to deal with Using a tag-team system you either control Homer or Bart who each have a special power. With EA poking fun at all their hit games (Medal Of Homer, Neverquest) this Simpsons game looks to be a mile above previous incarnations. Although I’ll always have a soft spot for Bart Vs. The World.

The Simpsons Game is out October 30th for all major consoles.
