29/04/2024 UPDATE: Hey everyone, RUclips has glitched out on this video and for some reason restored the merch promo I cut out at the beginning, but without restoring the audio and so the entire video is majorly out of sync. I'll be in contact with the support team to hopefully get this resolved soon! 30/04/2024 UPDATE: I've fixed it now! Still have no idea why it happened, but I was able to revert to the original in RUclips Studio and then cut the promo out again. Enjoy :) Also, 5 years?! How time flies...
With the extra donut team missions And what Radical wanted for the game, extra worlds, extra missions towards the end rather than the barrel mission over and over again and the completed halloween world
Fun Fact: In the final stages of development, the devs were told to change how gravity works because it "just didn't feel right". This, of course, ruined how every jump in the game functioned which is why it's so easy to drive off ledges or crash into walls after getting serious air.
@@cmitchell6927 I was told this by someone on the team and that's what they told me. I will admit I'm probably misquoting them a little but that's what they said.
one of my favorite parts about the game is every once in a while when you kicked a person they'd go flying 100 feet vertically, didnt happen often but it was funny af
Also did anyone else make up their own "stories" while playing this as a kid? Like I remember playing as Marge and I think you could go into Mr.Berns mansion? And I think you could change her clothes? So I would go in there pretending it was her house and that she was rich and fancy. Or playing as Lisa I would drive all around that sunset area pretending she was a movie star? Idk, 10 year old stuff.
My top 5 favorite GTA games: 5: Grand Theft Auto: Vice city stories 4: Grand Theft Auto IV 3: Grand Theft Auto V 2: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 1: Simpsons hit and run
Imagine an open-world Simpsons RPG! The amount of characters that could be playable and included in the main story and side quests would be huge and you could travel to others towns like Shelbyville.
DuckSute Right? All songs fit each character and their levels so well. Bart's rock music, Lisa's upbeat Jazz, Apu's indian bangers, Homer's "Pixar movie final action scene" music.... all of them are awesome!
Massive respect to Tamago for explaining the whole Hit and Run story, it’s actually fairly complex compared to some modern games. It’s also quite impressive how this isn’t written by Official Simpsons Writers, like Tamago said it wouldn’t be hard to believe this is written by Official Simpsons Writers.
You know a hilarious bit of trivia about this game? The one mission where you ride with Chief Wiggum is the one, and only, mission in the entire game where the Hit and Run meter is turned off. I love that they actually thought to do that lmfao
I know right! The graphics may not be technologically advanced, but the overall look is kind of soothing and comfortable, especially the very first level and the sunset Lisa level.
Indeed. Good example of great art style hiding the lack of polygon count. Character models could've been better tho, but given how hard it's to translate these designs to 3D, i'll let it slide.
For the love of god, if you like this game, mever ask modern pub'ishers to remake it, they will destroy your memory of it. I was burned by battlefront 2
I never watched The Simpsons, but when I was younger, this game had such a profound effect on me and was (and still is) one of my favorite games of all time. And despite not really watching the show, I still knew the characters, got attached to them, and loved all the references that I did happen to know from the show. The soundtrack and gameplay were so enjoyable and I could play this game constantly.
I feel the same way about the movie. Never watched the show but seen the movie 800 times (back in the cd days when we had like 10 movies to interchange) and brings back much laughter and nostalgia.
At first I didn’t have a memory card so nothing saved but my brother and I tried our best to get as far as possible any time we could. Level 2 was a blast, but Level 3 was absolutely nothing we’d imagine. It’s just so beautiful.
@@ramblinnernd5905 I remember spending a lot of time on level 3 cause I couldn’t get past it for awhile. I think the pier scenery is the most beautiful to look at in the game
I just now realized I could drive a monster truck, the car in the bowling building, a RC car and a quadbike. Wtf Hit 'n Run is filled with content like San Andreas
Don't feel too bad I only realised LAST YEAR that when you get 100 percent in every level you can go to the phone booth and press r1 (for ps2) and bring up a new menu that lets you drive any car in any level. For example you can use the toy car in level 1
I'm Italian, I played this game 20 times when I was a baby but I always played it in Spanish because for some reason there was no Italian language on he game and as a child I did not understand English (Spanish is the most similar language to Italian). It's funny because I did not understand the plot of this game until now you're explaining it to me

Not even a little bit of an exaggeration, my PS2, was on consistently for over 30 months straight. I did not turn it off, at all. And it ran, perfectly the entire time, and works JUST as well, to this day. True fact. The original xbox and PS2 Are 2 of the best and hardiest consoles ever made.

I used to play this game as a kid and I finally found all my game discs. I love the cars in the game, although I always wondered why Homer's car was a convertible. Now that I'm older I can recognise some of the cars in the game; The comic book guy's car is an AMC Gremlin and Snake's car is a 1970 Dodge Coronet convertible. I never knew there was such a following for the game!
That last level was complete bullshit. Having to do it all 3 times and starting from the beginning if you fail. I was 2 seconds off of winning on the last one.
I completed it about 5 times but it took me ages as a child like when i was 10 i completed it first time and a couple of the missions were so hard i nearly cried with frustration. 10 years later i come back and i still struggle and im like how the fuck did i do this as a kid. When your skill level on hit and run hasnt changed between 2009 and 2018 😂
@@SWAGGER573 I know, but I'd argue it's the simplicity of it which makes it so good. Simple, but really really fun. It doesn't try to over-complicate things yet it still manages to be challenging.
The only reason they did is because he is a white guy(he is not even white, hes sephardic) is his voice actor. A damned talented one at that. The Simpsons would be a shadow of itself without Hank Azaria.
0:57 - 1:18 This is pretty much wut happened to me at 6, no joke I got a PS2 and those 2 games But I completed the whole thing at 6 however I only had a 98% progress in my game, I had to find one more Wasp camera ;-; and I sold my PS2, but in 2018 I got the hit and run on PC, and did it on 100%, I feel proud lol
Fantastic video essay of Simpsons Hit & Run. It’s Videos like these that really inspire me to go back and replay it. It’s one of my all time favorite games ever
Oh my god, I dedicated so many hours of my life to this game, I also didn't have a memory card for the longest time lol, the only way I was ever able to beat any game was if me and my siblings got up early, and played the game all day long until we finally passed it, now that was true gaming, not this micro transaction shit that we have now a days
funny thing is, this game was meant to be a road rage sequel, but the lawsuit from sega caused them to decide to create all the cut scenes and the story. So this game is only as good as it is because the first one caused a lawsuit. i also notice how many of the voice lines revolving around the car were reused from road rage.
Hope you enjoyed the video! I played this game A LOT to get the footage for this vid and I had great fun doing it. Genuinely one of my favourite games ever. Update 23/04/2019: Thx for 1 milly views bb
There are cheat codes for this game one which grants invincibility to your vehicles for instance. There is one which grants access to the game's debug menu which is really a complete list of all vehicles including some you normally can't drive but this requires you to have 100% the game first
This game is an absolute gem. I've played many great games throughout my life, but none ever came close to the enjoyment I had experienced with this one. My siblings and I had a blast back in the days.
That waste barrel challenge has always stayed with me because that was the challenge I probably spent weeks doing. That time limit was crazy, but this game is AMAZING and I'm so glad I got to play it.
@@tamago2474 I never did that but my PS2 games that I sold, including the console, had a bunch of scratches on it. So much that they wouldn't even work anymore. The PS1 games always worked, but only a few PS2 games still worked.
Bruh this is so weird. I was in the same situation with my gamecube, no memory card, didn't get to level two for months. I had endless fun just driving around for hours and hours.
So I don’t know who the simpsons are or anything about them so I’m going to watch every season and document it here cuz corona Season 1, decent Season 2., decent Season 3, decent Season 4, pretty lit Season 5, decent Season 6, still watching
This is probably the best video i've seen in a while, great editing and everything was well explained! As for the game I love it and I'm literally playing it for the first time in years today :)
Man this game gives me great nostalgia I remember being young and finding it at GameStop in one of those BARGAIN bins it was 2$ I've watched this particular video 4 times in the past year just to reminder of how great this game was on my childhood. Also thanks Tamago for this video your one of my favorite tubers
Tbh this and The Simpsons Game are my favourite games to come from the Series. Xbox 360 Version for The Simpsons Game specifically, Hit and Run was good on everything.

Fun Fact: In the final stages of development, the devs were told to change how gravity works because it "just didn't feel right". This, of course, ruined how every jump in the game functioned which is why it's so easy to drive off ledges or crash into walls after getting serious air.

i remember seeing fake simpsons hit & run 2 fanmade game covers as early as 2005-2006
Steven Hanson It got cancelled

1:52 oh god, I remembered experiencing that. I would keep my PS2 on because of that.
My family had multiple memory cards, the one belonging to me was filled with either a) Need for Speed Underground 2 or b) Simpsons Hit & Run

True.
That was one of the hardest missions ever as a kid took me about 200 tries.
Not wrong side of the tracks that one is easy. Delivering the nuclear waste seemed almost impossible when I was a kid.

The good old days when Apu was there
IKR RIP APU from 1899-2018
This games had less NPC's than our real world now has... Lol
HE WAS LITERALLY PLAYABLE,
They can never fully erase him, he'll always be one of the best characters
Apu isn’t going away, al jean confirmed the rumours were fake
I used to play this game as a kid and I finally found all my game discs. I love the cars in the game, although I always wondered why Homer's car was a convertible. Now that I'm older I can recognise some of the cars in the game; The comic book guy's car is an AMC Gremlin and Snake's car is a 1970 Dodge Coronet convertible. I never knew there was such a following for the game!
That last level was complete bullshit. Having to do it all 3 times and starting from the beginning if you fail. I was 2 seconds off of winning on the last one.
Tomb Of The Colossus after probably over 10 years this video was the first time I saw how the game ended all because of that last level
Yeah it’s pretty sad because the last level look really cool
Honestly I had a harder time trying to destroy the armed truck with Snake's car on Apu's level.
For the longest time, I thought it said; "Where is the sexy pudding?!" and not; "Where is the sexy footage?!"
Im hungry for some hot fudge!
You are an absolute madlad for finishing this game. Some of the missions are so difficult, they still haunt me to this day.
Brick god yes, that fucking mission with snake, and you have to go collect rubbish bins scarred me ngl
I completed it about 5 times but it took me ages as a child like when i was 10 i completed it first time and a couple of the missions were so hard i nearly cried with frustration. 10 years later i come back and i still struggle and im like how the fuck did i do this as a kid.
When your skill level on hit and run hasnt changed between 2009 and 2018 😂
I’ll never forget some of the things the characters said like in the first level when Homer would say “I am so smart S-M-R-T I mean S-M-A-R-T”
The monkey one was annoying as hell for me
I finished this game like 10 times.
The vietnam flashbacks kicked in when you brought up the very last mission. RIP to that controller, 2001-2004
I love this game then i was young, its a darn masterpiece.
It still is
It holds up very well, it's a lot more fun than games made today.
@@james5995 its even better when fallout 76.
@@james5995 what how? All u do is collect items like literally thats the whole game
@@SWAGGER573 I know, but I'd argue it's the simplicity of it which makes it so good. Simple, but really really fun. It doesn't try to over-complicate things yet it still manages to be challenging.

Me trying to run away from my problems
I miss Apu.
Fucc that comedian for getting him banned, he had more purpose in his own life than just being some stereotype.
He had a dang LIFE!
I remember that i didn't call him Apu but Poo like Lmao
HE HAD A FUCK TON OF KIDS! 😭
Apu sounds like “A poo”
The only reason they did is because he is a white guy(he is not even white, hes sephardic) is his voice actor. A damned talented one at that. The Simpsons would be a shadow of itself without Hank Azaria.
Wait... WHAT!?
In 10 years this is the first time I’ve actually known the story holy shit
Hit or run, I guess they never run,
Huh?
Get out

You got a car I bet it doesn't miss ya

This is pretty much wut happened to me at 6, no joke I got a PS2 and those 2 games
But I completed the whole thing at 6 however I only had a 98% progress in my game, I had to find one more Wasp camera ;-; and I sold my PS2, but in 2018 I got the hit and run on PC, and did it on 100%, I feel proud lol
How did you get the game on PC, did you buy the cd or did you download it, and if so, where?
@@cynicaesthetics4341 if you got discord I can help you
@@JokingbombYT nah im good
There’s a game called The Simpson’s Game on PS2 which I think everyone forgot about
Charlie Dawson hit and run was just much better than the game that came out after their official theatrical movie
Fantastic video essay of Simpsons Hit & Run. It’s Videos like these that really inspire me to go back and replay it. It’s one of my all time favorite games ever
Wait wait wait, WHAT? GRANDPA SIMPSON DIES?!
no if a radioactive barrel explodes you alive also this game is NON canon is if somebody dies then in next level or episode ALIVE
@@Modelta They mean in the game though...
@@loserino4375 KISS MY GRITS
@@Modelta o0f
Although Hit and Run isn't canon, yes, Abraham dies
Oh my god, I dedicated so many hours of my life to this game, I also didn't have a memory card for the longest time lol, the only way I was ever able to beat any game was if me and my siblings got up early, and played the game all day long until we finally passed it, now that was true gaming, not this micro transaction shit that we have now a days
I feel ya
5:57 wait... I'm so confused
Why would homer return Flander's stuff?
He wanted to call the cops
Flanders was maybe gonna get his private army of his **shivers** F A M I L Y!
IMAGINE ALL THE “hi diddily ho”
@@AbsoluteRatBastard TRULY TERRIFYING
funny thing is, this game was meant to be a road rage sequel, but the lawsuit from sega caused them to decide to create all the cut scenes and the story. So this game is only as good as it is because the first one caused a lawsuit. i also notice how many of the voice lines revolving around the car were reused from road rage.
Hope you enjoyed the video! I played this game A LOT to get the footage for this vid and I had great fun doing it. Genuinely one of my favourite games ever.

There are cheat codes for this game one which grants invincibility to your vehicles for instance. There is one which grants access to the game's debug menu which is really a complete list of all vehicles including some you normally can't drive but this requires you to have 100% the game first
This game is an absolute gem. I've played many great games throughout my life, but none ever came close to the enjoyment I had experienced with this one. My siblings and I had a blast back in the days.
That waste barrel challenge has always stayed with me because that was the challenge I probably spent weeks doing. That time limit was crazy, but this game is AMAZING and I'm so glad I got to play it.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who froze their games in water when they stopped working lmao. I dont know why I thought that would work.
Bruh, I was thinking that the ice would fill in the scratches 😅
@@tamago2474 I never did that but my PS2 games that I sold, including the console, had a bunch of scratches on it. So much that they wouldn't even work anymore. The PS1 games always worked, but only a few PS2 games still worked.
“Where is the sexy footage?”
I’m dying 😂
Bruh this is so weird. I was in the same situation with my gamecube, no memory card, didn't get to level two for months. I had endless fun just driving around for hours and hours.
This video is an absolute masterpiece - loved every minute of it!

This is probably the best video i've seen in a while, great editing and everything was well explained! As for the game I love it and I'm literally playing it for the first time in years today :)
Man this game gives me great nostalgia I remember being young and finding it at GameStop in one of those BARGAIN bins it was 2$ I've watched this particular video 4 times in the past year just to reminder of how great this game was on my childhood. Also thanks Tamago for this video your one of my favorite tubers
Did you get it for $2? That's now worth triple amount these days
Tbh this and The Simpsons Game are my favourite games to come from the Series. Xbox 360 Version for The Simpsons Game specifically, Hit and Run was good on everything.
