These guys have to be the ugliest rabbits I've ever seen. Well, to be fair, they're Rabbids, not rabbits. I think they're a cross between a rabbit and Homer Simpson. Anyway, here's a trailer for Rabbids Go Home.

The Simpsons (Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, Sony PSP, and the Nintendo DS) video game has been out for weeks now and it's been giving quite a kick to series fans and gamers alike. Even if this Electronic Arts title has been out for a bit now, the festivities haven't stopped yet as footages of The Simpsons game launch party have surfaced. This time, we're seeing The Simpsons creator Matt Groening talking about the game and how he was able to influence it.

What's the Big Deal with GameStop's deals this week? It's the Simpsons Game which will be available by the end of the month. The price cut for the Sony PlayStation 3's 80 GB console is also spotlighted this week, plus a couple of discounted games for the Xbox 360, the PS3, and the PC.

This week's promo is a free Homerball when you reserve the Simpsons Game (PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PSP, DS). The Homerball is a little toy doll of Homer. If you recall, getting as fat and round as a watermelon is one of Homer's powers in the game. Also this week is MotorStorm, bundled with the 80 GB console.

Discounts this week are WarTech: Senko No Ronde (US$ 9.99), Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom (US$ 19.99) and Vanguard: Saga of Heroes (US$ 49.99). The 20% trade-in credit for reserving Super Mario Galaxy is still in effect, and probably will be until the game is finally released next month on November 12.

Forget donuts, guys - it looks Homer's got a similar thing going for chocolate. At least, that's the notion we're getting from this new The Simpsons Game (PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PSP, DS) trailer that's been recently put into circulation. And as you can guess, this particular level takes its cue from Homer's daydream in the Land of Chocolate in the TV series.

The difference with this retake is that it's partly done in the game's cell-shaded graphics, and that you'll get to play as Homer come the game's release, . Expect Electronic Art's The Simpsons Game to arrive in North America this October 30, with its European port hitting by November 1.

Those who decide to pre-order Electronic Arts' The Simpsons Game (DS, PS3, PSP, Wii, Xbox 360) are in for a treat. They'll be receiving some swag including one of the four limited edition posters and if you're lucky, a Homerball figure.

The four posters have the different designs showing off one of the different parodies present in the game. Each one will also have a cheat code on the back which players can use to unlock some of the content in the game. The press release gave word that it will be available from GameStop, Wal-Mart, Target, and Best Buy.

The Homerball, which will be available at "participating retailers while supplies last" is based on Homer's (duh!) special power in the game. For those who haven't seen this move in action, he essentially turns into a giant ball which gives the him ability to break through walls and steamroll any enemies.

Pre-orders will be available by September 19, so you might want to mark that on your calendar. If you want to get a Homerball. You might also want to place a few calls to your local game stores to see which ones carry the limited edition figurine.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, and it certainly has nothing on a certain blue-haired woman's desire to clean up the digital videogame city of Springfield. We've seen the video interviews, the gameplay videos, we've even been spoiled as to the identity of the final boss - now, we get a look at The Simpsons' (DS, PS3, PSP, Wii, Xbox 360) extended trailer, set to the music of Rock You Like a Hurricane by the Scorpions. Awesome, Electronic Arts!

It's been said quite a few times already, but it bears repeating: this next-gen recreation of the world's most recognizable animated family is not only looking to be the best out of the bunch, but also the most accurate.
Even the locations are painstakingly modeled to match that of nuclear energy-powered Springfield - making it a member of the Simpsons cast given new life thanks to videogame magic. Here's hoping, though, that we do get to listen to the trailer's song as we're kicking digital booty as Homer, Lisa, Marge or Bart.

So we all know that The Simpsons Game (Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, DS, Wii) from Electronic Arts is going to spoof a handful of contemporary game titles. But do we really know just how far they're going to take it? With titles such as Shadow of the Colossal Donut and God of Wharf, our curiosity has been piqued - and this new trailer successfully sates it.

Now, with this latest trailer of the game that features Medal of Homer (no points as to what game it's lampooning), it's probably safe to say that they're going to take the laughs into an epic level. Yes, complete with the grainy black-and-white filters and the brass instrument-filled soundtrack.

Yes, Bart and Homer are at it again, taking the fight on a besieged aircraft carrier, a mine field, and even inside a medieval castle that looks suspiciously like Castle Wolfenstein. Featuring cel-shaded visuals, hilarious set pieces and abilities, not to mention authentic voice acting - The Simpsons Game looks to be a blast, and this trailer definitely puts that point across.

The video embed's below, you know what to do. Enjoy!

After invading just about every aspect of our lives for nearly the last two decades, the Simpsons are at it again as they hop onto the next generation platform with their newest video game by Electronic Arts cleverly entitled, The Simpsons Game (Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, Nintendo DS and Wii)

True to form with the TV series, the Simpsons do what they do best even when thrown into a video game - and that's spoofing it. Greg Rizzer, lead designer of the game gives a brief walkthrough of the Xbox 360 version of the game. The game itself will actually be a spoof of other games as the crazy, yellow-skinned family is licensed into a video game and suddenly gain these weird powers only video game characters would get.

Every episode of the game (16 episodes total) puts them into a different game world set up lovingly in a near replication of the TV series, both in animation quality and humor. This makes the game a definite treat for anyone who's a fan of the series, and even if you're not, you'll still get a load of laughs at seeing how Homer makes a complete and utter buffoon of himself (like he always does).

Anyway, enough of that. I don't want to spoil too much of it. Take a look for yourself at the video and enjoy yourselves with its many classic Simpsons antics.

First off, if you hate spoilers, you have no business reading the succeeding paragraphs. Just back away from this one, read another QJ article and be completely happy playing this nice title. Skipping this one won't ruin your life, we assure you.

Still reading? Don't say we didn't warn you. If you haven't bought The Simpsons yet but are planning to, you'll either be real happy or real pissed with what you'll find out. This is your last chance to back off.

 

Destructoid reports that EA gave them a spoiler of sorts regarding this title. It turns out that there's a Wolfenstein level hidden in the game which can be unlocked. For the uninitiated, Castle Wolfenstein was one of the fathers of FPS and is certainly an icon of modern gaming.

Destructoid explains "in the Medal of Homer stage, Bart and Homie are hired to steal white flags from a town trying to surrender so that they can get firebombed. However, if you put your chores aside and transform into Bartman and fly across the channel you can snake around an abandoned warehouse and find the hidden area. Smash a few boxes out of your way and you'll find a door to Duffenstein, a replica of the great old-school FPS Castle Wolfenstein."

So there you have it. If you feel like revisiting the old school, The Simpsons will give you a chance to get some nostalgic treats. Otherwise, just enjoy the game and the nice movie, too. The Simpsons is available on Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo DS and Sony PSP owners everywhere.
