The Simpsons Road Rage is a video game that was released in 2001 by Electronic Arts. The game is based on the famous television show The Simpsons, and it is part of a series of games based on the series. The Simpsons Road Rage stars Bart, Homer, Lisa and Marge Simpson, as well as Mr. Burns and over 25 other characters from the show. The game was so similar to Crazy Taxi in fact, and in 2003, Sega filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Fox Interactive, Electronic Arts, and Radical Entertainment.
Mr. Burns has bought all transport systems in the city and has begun to overcharge everyone for the transportation services. The citizens of the city (managed by the game player) must earn money by driving taxis around town in order to regain control of the transport systems.
The game contains 17 different drivable/collectible vehicles, 7 levels (6 are "unlockable"), and 10 different missions. In order to collect the vehicles and unlock levels, players must earn one hundred thousand dollars for each car or level they want to get.
