Introduction
One of Konami's more famous beat-em-up style games, The Simpsons arcade released back in 1991. This is a game on my occasions, I've had the privilege of playing and beating as a kid. The most notorious place to find this type of game now in day's is a bowling alley where I discovered it, besides it's 2012 ports on the X-Box Live and Play Station Network.

Story- 4 out of 10
These beat-em-ups usually never have much of a story to them, besides just making an excuse for you to fight multiple enemies. As the story goes, the Simpsons family is strolling though town, when BAM! Mr.Smithers, whom was robbing a jewelry store for a large diamond for lord knows why, because it's not like Mr.Burns is not rich, bumps into Homer which causes the diamond to fly out his hand into Maggies mouth which becomes a pacifier for her. Now instead of the logical, way where he just takes the diamond from Maggie's mouth, Smithers decides to kidnap her altogether and send goons after the other family members just to keep them away, because it's not like Homer doesn't for the same boss! Meh..What did we care? We just wanted to brawl, so it didn't matter if the story was stupid.

Difficulty- 8 out of 10
I gave this a 8 because it's a beat-em-up. These games are famous, for out numbering and fighting dirty just to get you to dish out the quarters and come back for more like a gambling addict at a slot machine!
"Just one more game! I know I got it this time! Hey man can I barrow a quarter?!" The Simpsons arcade was no different, but it's not exactly as hard as say "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: in Time" arcade, because you can actually get pretty far in this game soloing on a $5's worth of quarters. Don't take that the wrong way however. Smithers and Mr.Burns will see to it that you at least give up another $5 dollar bill before the game is over.

Addictiveness- 9 out of 10
If you love, classic punching, kicking and smashing your way though multiple enemies with a mix of comedic humor I would suggest you give this game a try. This game can get crazy pretty fast and that's the best part of the game, so why not bring a few friends and spread the fun!Graphics- 8 out 10
The graphics were pretty good for a early 90's game. They are not superior like the TMNT Turtles in time beat-em-up, but they are still good none the less.

Sound- 8 out 10
This is a humor type beat-em-up, so it brings the noises and also brings silly voice over dialog from the actual actors into the game. The music isn't that bad either, which each stage having it's own unique themes that are befitting of them.

Depth- 7 out of 10
It's just a smash and race to the finish game, so there isn't a lot to give in depth, but the characters do being there own special attacks to the mix, such as Bart's spin attack. Solo specials don't stop there. When teaming up in groups of 4, the entire team can perform one big giant ball attack. There's also tag specials such as Bart and Lisa holding hands and clothesling they're ways though enemies.

Thanks for the reply.
I know about the spacing, but I seem to have format issues whenever I post. For example, every time I add pictures or bold and underline the category's, none of that stuff appears when I hit add post.

This arcade has been famous for a lot of reasons. A beat em up and your favorite cartoon all in the same machine? :shutupandtakemymoney:

Good job reviewing the game, too. You did really good.

Nice job on this review man, you really broke it sown nicely and went into a great deal of depth with the game which is always important in every good review. There is lots of information distributed through each part of your review and you also had a good introduction. You are really on a roll with reviewing these games man, nice job. About the spacing however, try going back and editing your post and re space it out, I know what you mean because sometimes when I do reviews and use bold and submit, it will cram it all back down after submitting and I have to go back and edit it to fix it, so just try that. 

Other than that, nice job on this review, it is very solid and detailed. Keep up the awesome work as always man, I see a lot of potential in you. Merry Christmas!
