One of my favorite lines of this game is when Mr. Burns says over the power plant intercom “Attention mindless drones. You may now return to your ugly families”
I remember wanting Hit and Run so bad as a kid and getting Road Rage instead. It felt like that Christmas episode where Bart wanted Bonestorm and got Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge
NOT a Western spy. honest. Great writing Tons of references to the show Fun gameplay that wasn’t afraid to challenge you And it really rewards the dedicated player firstly the more coins you get the more vehicle options you can get,completing all drag races gives you cool bonus cars,gags and special bonus cars can be found when exploringSPOILER ALERT] getting all cards gets you an original itchy and scratchy cartoon and lastly for 100% completion you unlock the ability to use an extra cheat code(there are others) that gives you a secret menu with all cars including the non playable ones,cars that weren’t used and level exclusive cars.
Hey, this is going to sound insane. Crash: tag team racing characters have many of the same barks. One line sticks out to me. When homer picks up a wrench he says "aw, i wanted a muffin." N-gin says the says the same thing in the same way when getting a powerup. Just one example. It freaked me out as a kid.
The games reference each other. One of Homer's mission failed lines ("This game SU-UCKS!") is shared with Pasadena, and one of the hints you get from talking to characters repeatedly in CTTR (I think it was one of Coco's?) is "Have you played Hit and Run? Man that was a great game."
Oh god this video dredged up the weirdest memories of a nightmare I had about it once. All I remember about it now was that Bart got turned into some kind of pizza golem with pepperoni eyes, and that it terrified me enough that I got legit uncomfortable playing last mission of chapter 3 for a while
Does this game have issues? Yes. However I think it is incredibly well done for when it was made, and the nostalgia hits me like a dump truck every time.
This is awesome. This is the type of beautiful, cartoon-loving video I'd love to also see for Battle for Bikini Bottom. But I don't think Matt knows SpongeBob seasons 1-3... 😥
I'm sure that's Smithers dad in the reactor. From when Homer had that flashback to his childhood. But I'll keep an eye out and see if anyone proves me wrong on that one.
For some reason, the Gracie films parody at the very end got to me and I teared up remembering all the late nights I spent alone watching the early seasons of the Simpsons so quiet that my parents wouldn’t wake up. Bless you Matt I can’t wait for the next part
Having failed that goddamn tubes/tomacco mission so many times as a kid, I was super excited to how to beat it. Now I can sleep peacefully knowing it is 100% completely unbeatable. Thanks, Matt!
to risk making another jerma reference, Can't wait for the feature length finale to this series: an uninterrupted 3 hour video of matt attempting the final mission in near complete silence
so a interesting fact about the missions in hit and run is for all the main story ones if you cant do one you technically dont have to. when you fail enough times at a mission the game will then give you the option to just flat out skip it and you move on to the next one. i think your able to retry it again later in the menus but its crazy that a game just gives you the option to just skip every level cause they can get stupidly hard
@@death0god1993 there was an actual PC release back in the day but it's not on Steam or any other storefront (licensing issues, iirc) so the only legal way to get a copy would be secondhand, same as the consoles. But I'd wager pirate copies wouldn't be hard to find.
is the "Matt Mcmuscles Flophouse 843rd video spectacular" a reference to something?? i could swear there was a cartoon where they kept saying something like that all the time during the episode
@@jeffk3801 no i don't think so. whatever it was had a jingle that went something like this "nana nananananaaa spectaculaar". the "nana's" are supposed to be the name of the show i believe. and i think they used to say some number but i cant remember it at all
the simpsons' other neighbors are ruth powers and her daughter (left), and former president gerald ford (front). although i think gerald ford move out from springfield after the episode ended
I was a small child when i played this and all I did was run around as homer and cause havoc in Springfield. I did a couple missions but i would get hours of entertainment. When you switched over and started playing as Bart at the end of the video, I almost spit out my coffee cause I had no fuckin clue you played as bart eventually XD
I see tons of people wanting a remaster of SHAR, but do they know that the game is in such a legal mess that no one knows who owns the rights to the game?
I want there to be an HD remake, with cel-shaded graphics, better controls and motorcycles/bikes added. It can add the flying bike from Lemon of Troy. References past season 12 are not allowed.
PART 2 - ruclips.net/video/z5q1IouFpyg/видео.html
Yo, what's up with part 4?
Zack McMuscles, immortalized forever in the snazzy animated intro. RIP Sweet Baby.
oh damn i didn't even realise he'd passed away until i read this, 2020 just keeps getting worse
Ah yes, the game that drove Jerma insane!
Before playing that, he was smart as a monkey, now he's dumb as a chimp!
Pray. For. Jerma.
2, 4, 6, 8,
You suck, I'm great,
Daa daa, daa daa,
You are the one, I, Hate.
It's still seared into my brain.
HOMER SHUT THE FUCK UP
Is this one of those secret hard games?
-Jerma
BART
22:19 I can't believe Bart went all the way to Egypt just to tell a flamboyant vampire "don't have a cow man."
One of my favorite lines of this game is when Mr. Burns says over the power plant intercom “Attention mindless drones. You may now return to your ugly families”
Tip for finding the robot bees: Bees usually make a lot of noise. No noise suggests no bees
I wish we could get a remaster of this and Hulk ultimate destructon
Ultimate destruction was top tier sandbox gameplay man.
One of my lecturers was a developer for this game, apparently. It was cool, he was cool.
Lucky
you forgot that you are cool there buddy
I remember wanting Hit and Run so bad as a kid and getting Road Rage instead. It felt like that Christmas episode where Bart wanted Bonestorm and got Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge
This game was a master piece don’t @me
Best Simpsons game hands down
Why?
NOT a Western spy. honest.
Great writing
Tons of references to the show

Homer doesn't say that, he says "I wanted a peanut." It's a reference to that "money can be exchanged for good and services" moment
I'm pretty sure both games run on the same engine, were made by the same people, and have some of the same sound effects (such as for the coins).
The games reference each other. One of Homer's mission failed lines ("This game SU-UCKS!") is shared with Pasadena, and one of the hints you get from talking to characters repeatedly in CTTR (I think it was one of Coco's?) is "Have you played Hit and Run? Man that was a great game."
Where's Sideshow Bob?
And that guy who eats people and takes their faces?
Im right here, Chief!
@@MattMcMuscles Oh. Then where's Sideshow Bob?

Got this in a bundle with 15 other ps2 games including road rage and a ps2 for 60$ on eBay. Was so happy when I realized this was in it!
4:35 Le Grill? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? XD
Speaking of references, I liked the nod to *Bambi meets Godzilla* in the intro.
Does this game have issues? Yes. However I think it is incredibly well done for when it was made, and the nostalgia hits me like a dump truck every time.
as much as I played this game for some reason the maps in road rage are even more nostalgic
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS I feel that. Road Rage is also super nostalgic for me.
Simpsons Hit and Run: An erotic thriller?!
5:33 dude I just noticed that😂 even if they have a roof it’s transparent one way or another
I was waiting ror the inevitable Bart Jojo reference, i'd be mad if there wasn't one!
This is exactly how I imagined this LP OF Hit & Run would be. This is stunning. I can't wait for part 2.
This is awesome. This is the type of beautiful, cartoon-loving video I'd love to also see for Battle for Bikini Bottom. But I don't think Matt knows SpongeBob seasons 1-3... 😥

Characters like snake and frink are in the game so much cause they were popular in simpsons road rage as some of the best vehicles
I hate being so early having to wait for the next parts and all, but ... WHAT A BLAST IT WILL BE. Loved it.
For some reason, the Gracie films parody at the very end got to me and I teared up remembering all the late nights I spent alone watching the early seasons of the Simpsons so quiet that my parents wouldn’t wake up. Bless you Matt I can’t wait for the next part
That intro was awesome
This is fantastic. I hope you continue this and do more of these in the future.
One of my favorite games of all time.
Also one of my nostalgia ones.
I would love to know how much these guys pay for these gorgeous intros.
Marge probably reached Lisa by calling the school
OK Matt, that intro was pretty awesome.
Alright, how long until he uses "A bee bit my bottom, now my bottom's big!"
Are those the same bees in the dog's mouth and when the dogs bark the dogs shoot bees at you?
Are we talkin about those _bees?_
4:45 Ruth Powers and her daughter Laura have been living in that house since Season 4.
*Beats Smithers to threaten Burns, but Burns tells Smithers to release the hounds* Boy I really hope someone got fired for that blunder.
When will do an what happened on Simpsons wrestling or Simpsons skateboarding
Great video! Really looking forward to part 2!
Damn, Matt! The editing on this one must have taken all week! Can't wait for Part 2!
With being in a convertible does Homer ever do the "Man, the air feels good on my neck!" line?
The most cool intro I have ever seen
To this day I still quote “that’s for expecting me to do the job for which I am paid” at work all the time.
Finally...
The best GTA playthrough
Omg that intro was perfect
Holy shit that intro was so good. Not sure how that was drawn, but it’s so freaking accurate.
Having failed that goddamn tubes/tomacco mission so many times as a kid, I was super excited to how to beat it. Now I can sleep peacefully knowing it is 100% completely unbeatable. Thanks, Matt!
Lucky for me I have the 100% game completion file that came in the magazine

I know I'm super late but rdr2 story has the same mechanics.
I suddenly have the urge to go out and buy eggs.....
It finally happened. McMuscles became the reference. This is the peak, y'all. We're downhill from here.
Classic Waylon Smithers. Always getting killed by Homer driving his car.
Wait, did Hit & Run predict murder hornets?
the moment it occurred that with all the Simpsons references you've made why there isn't LPs of you playing Simpsons games: this shows up xD
Dude. That intro was freaking awesome.
I'm NEVER gonna call this man Matthew
Wow i really enjoyed this video, took me down nostalgia lane with this game..I like this style of videos
Ah, finally, I was wondering if Matt ever watched the Simpsons and played The Simpsons Hit and Run
If they ported this to modern consoles/pc it would make a killing
Not an official port (from what I can see in the steam store) but someone might have emulated it and modded it
@@death0god1993 there was an actual PC release back in the day but it's not on Steam or any other storefront (licensing issues, iirc) so the only legal way to get a copy would be secondhand, same as the consoles. But I'd wager pirate copies wouldn't be hard to find.
@@ONShypnos I wasn't aware of that, I'll have to look into that especially if there are mods for it.
this video about the simpsons is more watchable than the recent simpsons season.
This video is great, can't wait for part 2! Also i would love to see a version of this of The Simpsons Game
You said without further adieu...
Right in front of the Kwik-E-Mart you missed an opportunity to say without further *_Apu_*
is the "Matt Mcmuscles Flophouse 843rd video spectacular" a reference to something?? i could swear there was a cartoon where they kept saying something like that all the time during the episode
The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular hosted by Troy McClure
@@jeffk3801 oh so it was a simpsons reference. but it still wasn't the one i was thinking of. thanks though
@@kikilles_ maybe you were thinking of the spin off special? With the wiggum/skinner detective show and the variety show
@@jeffk3801 no i don't think so. whatever it was had a jingle that went something like this "nana nananananaaa spectaculaar". the "nana's" are supposed to be the name of the show i believe. and i think they used to say some number but i cant remember it at all
@@jeffk3801 OKAY SO, I JUST FIGURED IT OUT. ITS THE ICARLY 50 WEBSHOW SPECTACULAR
This was so funny, I can't wait for more parts!!
Now that's a hell of an intro xD Love it!
That intro tho, very nice
Lmao at the Steamed Hams reference
full lets play, lets go.
Yes, more of this please!
the simpsons' other neighbors are ruth powers and her daughter (left), and former president gerald ford (front). although i think gerald ford move out from springfield after the episode ended
Every year I speedrun it. Since 07.
I thought I recognize you. I gave you a plate of corn muffins in 2019 to play Duke Nukem Forever DLC.
awesome intro!
The blue neighbor house next to the Simpsons house is actually sideshow bobs house 😂
that intro won me over before the actual video
I will never not view a video about The Simpsons Hit & Run! That's my childhood right there!
Love the intro!
Amazingly well-done vid!!!
Loved this game, I bought a book from a school fair with cheats in it. Don't think I ever played without them
Why am I having ptsd like flashbacks every second of this game??
I was a small child when i played this and all I did was run around as homer and cause havoc in Springfield. I did a couple missions but i would get hours of entertainment. When you switched over and started playing as Bart at the end of the video, I almost spit out my coffee cause I had no fuckin clue you played as bart eventually XD
Sooo is part 4 just never gonna come out then?
I can't believe you didn't refer to King Talky Tiki by name
My favorite Simpsons Game
I'm only one minute in and so far this video is great!
They so need to remaster this
12:43 please rephrase that😂
best simpsons game
I see tons of people wanting a remaster of SHAR, but do they know that the game is in such a legal mess that no one knows who owns the rights to the game?
Absolutely beautiful Jojo reference~ Tied with Simpsons Arcade game for best Simpsons game for me.
God I loved this game
Okay this game i can actually watch matt play lol
I want there to be an HD remake, with cel-shaded graphics, better controls and motorcycles/bikes added. It can add the flying bike from Lemon of Troy.
References past season 12 are not allowed.
The flying bike from Lemon of Troy is in the game I believe.
Grand Theft Auto but awesome
EGGS FOR BART
oh god o fucj i cant wait for the next episode
I'll say this: that 50s creature-feature soundtrack version of the Simpsons opening was kind of a nice touch
WAit hold on STOP NO I DIDNT just see...Bart push Mongo!?
Fucking love this game honestly.
One second of Pat Metheny was unexpected.
The Simpsons: Hit and run Remastered
WHEN DO THEY RIDE THE LAST TRAIN HOME?!
