The Simpsons Arcade game hits X-box live Friday.

By MiseryCityTexas - 02-01-2012, 03:03 PM - Boxden > BX GameSpot

Konami today announced that The Simpsons Arcade Game will arrive on Xbox Live on February 3. A price for the game was not provided, and as of press time, Konami had not responded to GameSpot's request for comment.

An HD overhaul of the 1991 original beat-'em-up title, the game lets players control Homer, Marge, Lisa, and Bart and pummel foes through a series of side-scrolling levels. The game spans eight levels and sports four-player online co-op.

Additionally, The Simpsons Arcade Game includes three game modes: Quarters, Survival, and Free Play. Finally, the game includes bonus content like the Japanese version of the game (which must be unlocked) and in-game flyers and posters, as well as a Simpsons character guide.

I think that's already on Live I think they dropped it around the end of 2010.

Yeah, coming to PSN next Tuesday, and if you have PS+ you get it FOR FREE! :dancingcool:

02-01-2012, 10:35 PM

free with a side of massive shame because you pay for PSN+

02-01-2012, 11:32 PM

What's shameful about paying for a coupon book that pays for itself?

...At least 500K sold the first day. We're not only talking about the best Simpsons game (Not that that's saying much but still ), but a game that's never got a home port since it released 21 years ago (And no, those half-sh!tty PC conversions don't count, as they're not considered consoles).

...Pretty much all the arcade games I've played on consoles (Especially recent ports like TMNT, Final Fight, and X-Men) have been just as good, if not better in some ways, as they were in arcades, so I don't know what you're talking about.
