Simpsons video game set for Nov 1

I was sadly underwhelmed by the Simpsons movie. I’ve been sadly disappointed by the current staff of writers for the show who’ve found it neccessary to stoop to the Adult Swim level of humor to keep the show “fresh.” (No insult to Adult Swim intended. But this is the Simpsons, man.)  Now EA has put out the sneak peak trailer for the new Simpsons game set to hit the Playstations, Wiis, XBOXes, and handhelds of civilization on November 1, 2007.

 Is this the final and last hope for this franchise to redeem itself?

I’m not one to get excited about video games, me being one of the few people at GvL that do not worship at that altar of the gaming gods, but I like to play a good, clean fun game now and then. This looks, (crosses fingers), like more of a throwback to the good-natured platformers of yore that I still enjoy every now and then.

 If it turns out to not suck, this might be a game that I might actually buy for my old roomate so that I can play it on his console.
