The Simpsons Game - hands-on
It's looking most "eeeexcellent"
6) Lisa the Tree Hugger
Burns has decided he wants to cut down all the forests in Springfield and make each tree into one luxury toothpick. Lisa is trying to stop him by sabotaging the tree plant, but Carl and Lenny go and get themselves stuck in the machinery and need rescuing too. There are lots of spiky machinery to jump and dodge through, and things to destroy using the Hand of Buddha.
Play as: Lisa and Bart
Game it's most like: Any platformer, like Mario
Enemies: Lumberjacks
Best bit: Getting to use Lisa's "Hand of Buddha" ability to drop trees on enemies' heads.
Soundbite: Lisa: "With these abilities, I could be a force for social justice!" Bart: "Oh God. Can we skip this level?"
