A sad day because Noiseland Arcade (and parent site New Springfield), have officially closed. Those sites were what inspired me to create this site and to see them go is like watching an era pass by.
But from the ashes will rise a phoenix, so to speak. Simon Lau, the webmaster of those sites, has granted me permission to use the video game related content from Noiseland Arcade. It consists of a whole lot of screenshots and quite a bit of info, and it should all go up in a matter of weeks. Let me also take this opportunity to thank him again. Nice guy, that Simon.
So things are looking up. The site has a reliable host now, and there'll be a boost of info and screenshots. My guide for Bart's Nightmare should also be completed by next week. See ya next time folks.
It's X-mas time at the VGC

And we have another new host and a new official link. So, this site is now hosted by Simpson Crazy. Ben is a cool guy, and I encourage all visitors from here to go and check out his sweet Simpsons site.
So, what's new? A little bit here and there. I have a few instruction manuals, some updates to the guides, and more links for all. It's just this time of the season makes me so kind and charitable...
Seriously, I wish I had more for the grand re-opening. Perhaps after I finish school I can spend a lot more time on images and such. Ah well. Have a good holiday and enjoy the breaks (even if some of us only get three weeks).
See ya, and a happy new year!
Merry Thanksgiving

For those who like that sort of thing. I personally can't stand the relatives, but that's just me.
Well, I finally threw in those images I've been promising. It's just a random collection of stuff I've had since I started the site way back when. I also updated the guides for Bart vs. the Juggernauts and Simpsons Hit & Run, for those who want to know.
That'll do it for today.
I'm here aren't I?...

Yea, I know that Halloween title was up 14 days too long. I drew up this here purty intro title, just for fun.
I have a new guide today for Bart vs. the Juggernauts on the original Gameboy. It's a pretty cool game the first time through, though there isn't much replay value. You can check it out in the Game Guides section.
The images I've been promising should be up in a few days. It's random stuff, but cool to have on the site.
See ya!
What shall we discuss?...

How about, being so close to Halloween and all, I highlight some of the Halloween-related Simpsons video games?
Well, I'm doing it anyway. Today I have Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror. The game was released in March of 2001 for Gameboy Color, and is based on the Treehouse of Horror episodes of The Simpsons. In the game it is Halloween night, and the Simpsons were telling scary tales in the tree house. They fell asleep and their souls became trapped in crazy nightmares.
It's not the best story, but the game was pretty good. It's a side view platformer, and the player gets to use every member of the family in different settings to complete the game.
You can view some basic info and a game guide here at this site, or visit The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror for screenshots and other info.
And finally, I'll be adding an Images section pretty soon. It won't really be organized or anything, but I have a lot of images and I might as well put them up for viewing. Maybe by the end of the month.
All right, see ya!
Harpy Halloween ya muckers!...
08 Oct 2003
So it's not really Halloween yet, but some sites like to show off a special holiday design. I'm not one to be behind the times, so here ya go. Note that this site is now EVIL!!!
Anyway, here is what I have for you today. The guide for Simpsons Hit & Run is finally completed. Check it out in the Game Guides section for all your gaming needs.
Stay tuned baby, cuz I got lots more comin'!
Hey, I get things done...

What did I tell ya, Simpsons Hit & Run is the best Simpsons game so far! I got the game on release day and have been hard at work on the guide. I have finished the majority of the guide and a gags guide as well, so check them out in the Guides section. Some great folks at GameFAQs have also discovered codes. Take a look in the Codes section.
Seriously, Hit and Run
18 Aug 2003
Simpsons Hit and Run is turning out to be a great game! Check out the trailer at Gamecube Europe. It is a game similar to the Grand Theft Auto series where you can steal cars, run over people, and best of all run around a 3-D Springfield.
I also updated all of the game info pages and added the games that were missing. That is all.
Up at last, up at last
17 Aug 2003
Well, this thing is finally back! I've been mad busy working on other projects and the design for CBG's Video Game Collection was at the bottom of the proverbial totem pole. I plan to do all kinds of things, but for now all the content is about the same.
So, what's new? Sweet lord, tons of crap. For one thing, The Simpsons: Hit and Run is due out next month! It will be coming out for PC, Playstation 2, Gamecube, and Xbox, so you can't weasel out of it and not buy the game.
Futurama came out last week, but only for PS2 and Xbox. The GC and Gameboy Advance versions were canceled for some reason, so I'll be going for the PS2 version. Expect a Futurama game guide from me, eventually.
Speaking of which, I received the prestigious (yea, that's right) "FAQ Writer of the Week" award from IGN! I gave 'em an interview that you can read here. It seems to me I came off a bit too obsessive, but eh. I got two free games out of it.
As for any site content... man, there's probably too much to list. All the guides have been updated, and there is also a new one for Simpsons: Road Rage on Gameboy Advance. Look through what we have, and rejoice! CBG's Video Game Collection is back for good.
I ain't dead, yo.
13 Apr 2003
Nah, I'm still around. To prove it I wrote three new guides for Road Rage, Krusty's Super Fun House, and Virtual Springfield. Check them out in the Video Game Guides section.
I also updated every other guide that I've written.
