You know, it never fails. I head out for a quick vacation and return to a ton of updates about one Simpsons game or another. So without further ado, the new stuff:
Box Covers
That's right! We now have official box covers and confirmation on the title: The Simpsons Game. And in case you're wondering, that wasn't a typo! I did indeed say covers. Each version of The Simpsons Game has a unique cover featuring Homer being mauled by what appears to be enemies from the game, with various other characters in the background. Check 'em out:
Website Update
The official website was recently updated from the Grand Theft Scratchy theme to a new mysterious factory design. One has to wonder how a green slime factory relates to the game... but I suppose we'll find out in a few months.
