Simpsons arcade hits psn/xbl on Friday

Oh hells yeah. I always wanted a home version of this. Sure, I'd like to have the stand up someday, but this will have to do for now...
 
Sure you could play the original, or even MAME it like I do. But if they have online co-op and some trophies? That would be cool. I also heard this was to be in HD.

BTW: Can you play Mame games in Kelria or whatever? Or is it just fighting games?
 
This will ease the pain of me selling mine. I just stopped playing it after I beat it with every character. Will be nice to throw in on once and a while though.
 
Achievements / Trophies

I sold my 2P Japanese version PCB with all the artwork last spring and haven't missed it since. Not with Mame and now online release. They released the 12 achievements/trophies for this game. A couple look difficult, not sure I can beat the game in 30 mins.

I used to beat it in 27 minutes. Wasn't that hard, just tiring on the fingers...
 
this is right after I bought the pcb a couple of weeks back....then again I also dowloaded the Xmen arcade before I embarked on my project

What setting? And was it 1,2,3 or 4 players?
I think the more players that are in the game, the more enemies that come out? Causing it to take more time to beat?

Gives you a max of 2mins and 45sec on each stage.
 
Good game. Glad to see it released. A couple of things.



PSN+ = Sony's Pay Service = Members get it for free.
Xbox Live = MS's Pay Service = $10

I have LOVED my 360 for years but I am getting sick of being treated like I'm in an abusive relationship that I keep, stupidly, returning to.

Really Microsoft.....Really?

Medium difficulty, solo. I think you are right, there are more enemies with more players.
 
PSN+ = Sony's Pay Service = Members rent it for free until their subscription's up. Once they stop paying for PSN+ it's gone.

I won't be getting it on either system. I have fun with it in the arcade but don't have the urge to go back and play it again.

That may be true, but if you stop paying for PSN+, then you lose your free games, so what difference does it make? At least with XBL, even a Silver (free) account can buy and keep the game. PSN+ is a joke.

Another thing I like is you can transfer all your xbl arcade games to another xbox 360 so they can have copies of them as well. Of course you can only do this once every four months.
 
How much does it cost (roughly) to beat at the arcade?

Figure it's a one time playthrough game so wondering which is the better value :)
 
The only time I really die in the game is during the bosses. The bosses can also take ages to beat as well. I'm going to have to rush the stages as fast as I can, so I can have more time to take down the bosses. I'm also going to look up tricks as well, like a place to stand so I don't get hit etc etc.
 
they added in the region option, so once you beat the game on USA Rom, you unlock JAPAN rom, is there a difference thats noticeable? main menu looks like the arcade cabinet with the game options, plays the same on 360, can choose 10 coins, or 40 coins (that are meant to be shared between 4) some interesting achievements
 
yeah my PS3 is still on 3.55 and never been used since, just use my Xbox these days, its fun, I like some of the weird XBLA titles, makes a change from the norm :)
 
For anyone questioning local co-op, etc:

"The Simpsons features four-player multiplayer both locally and over Xbox LIVE. You can even join a buddy's game in progress."
