I’m a big Mario Kart fan, but maybe the most impressive game to me was The Simpsons: Hit & Run. A loving ripoff homage to Grand Theft Auto, you drive around different parts of Springfield as various characters from The Simpsons, eventually discovering and stopping a sinister threat to the town. I wish there was a multiplayer mode; the driving was a lot of fun. It’s kind of crazy there’s been no sequel and no remaster!

It’s been years since I played it; maybe after we move I need to get the Game Cube hooked back up and play it again.
