Yeah, I haven’t played this game in years just because I couldn’t finish this mission. I just rebought the game for PS2 and I’m really hoping I can finish it this time.
Literally every clip I’ve seen it’s always beat in the last 3-4sec I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees how you had to be near perfect with this mission
I'll never forget finally beating this game a week after my 10th birthday. I remember because a few days prior to my birthday I was in a car accident on the last day of 4th grade - on the way to school, and had a cut in my forehead glued shut at the hospital. The glue finally fell off the day I beat the game. Early June of 2007. I'll never forget how frustrating the difficulty spikes were in Hit & Run, and how great it felt when I finally won. I was a massive Simpsons fan when I was a kid and started asking for the season sets for birthday and christmas gifts after getting season 2 with birthday money on my ninth birthday a year prior. Simpsons Road Rage was actually my entry point to the franchise as a whole around 2004-2005. RIP Radical Entertainment. Thanks for the memories.
I got this game for my 8th birthday in 2003. Just like you I had every season set on dvd as a kid. It took time tho cause one season set ran about 40 bucks. Eventually by like 8th grade I had seasons 1-9 tho
2:58 The most stressful thing in existence for EVERYONE is that timer. Especially at the very end, you get that wave of accomplishment and astonishment that makes your heart stop for a second, trying to process what just happened
@@9rumpole The game was scripted to give you a fixed timer of 30 seconds once you lost the alien car. That's why some people deliberately let the car stick to them until they get a bit closer to the school.
Nah it was the fact that you finally got to the beam in time, but the timer was still counting down as it slowly lifted the car up. So cold by the devs, but worth it if you could make the cut in time! Good times.
So after 15 odd years since I last tried to repeatedly complete this final mission aged around 8, I can finally say I have completed it. Definitely worth the wait!
I came here just after finishing the game for the first time! I bought this game back in mid 2005 and only my father made it to the end, so it's not until now that I decided to play it and finish it. So happy to have gotten to see this cutscene for the first time!
I honestly think it’s impossible if you don’t use atleast a few of the short cuts! I think losing the chase car so quickly was what made it so close for me!
@@9rumpole that's the trick, you have to let that car follow you for a while so you have more time to get to the school Just yesterday I finished the game again in my phone and I completed this mission after 3 or 4 tries
@@alanmathias6706 "set to kill" was really annoying to me, it has a rather tight timer and trying to drive through Squidport quickly (which you have to do twice) without getting a Hit & Run is really difficult.
@@1mariomaniac There's a really handy shortcut you can take when driving back to Krustylu Studios to save a lot of time. Use the ramp next to the lighthouse to drive into the ship's lower deck and reset your car when you collide into the wall. It will respawn you right next to the road that leads straight to the studio. You'll save a good 10-15 seconds this way.
still till this day, i didn’t pass this mission! i remember countless times trying and one day i got so pissed, i gave up. i stlll have it but it’s scratched :(
This mission really tests your map knowledge. If you use all available shortcuts and (optionally) let the alien car chase you for a while to stall the timer, you'll build enough of a buffer to deliver the nuclear waste in time.
This mission took me 892849177949412894797 tries to beat it, it is impossible. Especially when you have to drive the nuclear waste to the school, it's impossible to keep the hit and run meter low and in one of the tries i was almost there to the school and i crashed the car on the baseball fence. I broke one of my ps2 controllers and i screamed in rage. But after a whole year of tries, i finally beated the mission.
With dedication. But i think i may have beaten this when i was younger... but its been so long that i dont remember. It was a fun PC game back then for sure!
i remember beating this mission at age 7 and i’m coming back to complete the game again, i’m questioning how i did it. i remember it not taking too long.
I'm furious. I got to the spaceship with time left, broke through the glass and in the air - and it did NOT give me extra time! It timed out and I had to restart the mission, AGAIN. You got an extra 14 seconds!
@@HigherKnowledgeArts in my language exploding is translate as "explotar" which sounds much more similar to "exploiting" even known they have different meaning. I wrote the comment fast and didn't check. If you know any other language apart from English you will understand these things can happen sometimes.
Its definitely not easy even with the short cuts... you have to have a near perfect run really. I think I used most of them! Although they come with their own risk of blowing yourself up
There are 2 short cuts that you missed, slowing down and turning left at 2:55 into that park is a short cut that leads you to the Kwik e mart, there is a road to the right of the Kwik e mart 3:04 and at the end of it, there is a fire truck with a ramp on it that launches you over houses that saves a ton of time.
I remember I axidenrly stepped on my memory card and I was on the last mission off this chapter I LITERLY got my ps2 and threw it out the window and I never looked back untill now
This game is the most rage inducing one EVER.
Yeah, no kidding.
I’m playing it rn lol, cant make it past the 3rd level with lisa
I guess you could say it caused players “Road Rage”.
@@skelemama thats another game!
@@jytvreal I know, but technically Hit and Run was made by the same guys who developed Road Rage so it still counts
I remember beating this mission, playing the game sitting on the floor on a cushion, man how time flies
I never did it :(
Yes man 😢
03:42: the cutscene no kid saw back in the day.
Yeah this mission was crazy difficult, was actually painful to play lmao
Connorc2016 lol!
Yeah, I haven’t played this game in years just because I couldn’t finish this mission. I just rebought the game for PS2 and I’m really hoping I can finish it this time.
Yeah, just come to my mind , it was crazy difficult and back then I didn't finish this mission
Maro Damon i was able to finish it on my first try this time, I have no idea how
Literally every clip I’ve seen it’s always beat in the last 3-4sec I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees how you had to be near perfect with this mission
I don't know how but tonight when I beat the game for the first time it was with like 9 seconds still on the clock, it was a GREAT run.

Oh my god I know, I can watch it now and it still stresses me out how close it is!
I think I lost the chase car too quickly so I had even less time!

3:10 my heart stopped
I broke 2 controllers trying to beat this mission for the first time when i was a kid. Did beat it though!
I can tell you this wasn’t the first time I attempted this 😂
0:13 Homer: Piece of cake!
Me: Wrong.
You'll never know what true pain is until your car crashes onto the baseball fence and it explodes your nuclear barrel at 3:27 🤣🤣
Or for me going through the cemetery shortcut, practically everytime!!!....... 😮 I mean I love this game but come on!
@@phlhoran12396 the trick is that you need to let up on the throttle about halfway up the ramp. That way you won't smash into the sign.
@@1mariomaniac Cheers. I passed the game a few months back. I still dunno how really! 👊😂
5:16 breaking the fourth wall

"I Smell Toaaast!"
Grandpa Simpson's famous last words 🙏
I always loved how Homer kinda took it upon himself to save the world from an alien invasion lol
3 People can't smell the toast
The mission was hard AF but, looking back, there were ways to make it a lot easier that I couldn't think of as a kid

I swear the voice lines are the best thing in this game 😂😂
this is the only video game mission that has ever reduced me to tears because of how fucking frustrating it was
Cutscene starts at 3:41
I remember how happy I was when I bought it
I literally pissed my pants
One of the most hardest and stressful parts in any game ever
Unbelievable.
2:26 made me wince cause I was expecting a huge radioactive explosion lol
This is one of my childhood favourite games
What a send off, driving the best car in the game was a great treat.

i honestly don't know that i could never beat it
With dedication. But i think i may have beaten this when i was younger... but its been so long that i dont remember. It was a fun PC game back then for sure!
I never saw this cut scene as I could never bet the final mission
I did it so you don’t have to😭
memories... :)
vangelis 98 facts
Yep memories
At 8, this last mission was ridiculously fckin hard. You literally had to know every short cut to beat the time 🤦🏻♂️
Why is the hud Flickering?
i believe its a problem with the recording software, it wasnt like this for me in the game
The mission that made every kid drive like Michael Schumacher
i remember beating this mission at age 7 and i’m coming back to complete the game again, i’m questioning how i did it. i remember it not taking too long.
Man I remember my disc stopped working before I could beat it
I can say I've never fully finished this game since 2004
The Halloween Map that would creep me and my cousins out 😭
I literally saw this in my recommends after I got to the part when you get to the town hall as Bart
It’s a timeless game!
"STEP ON IT I FEEL A STROKE COMING ON"
I'm not sure how I feel about Kang and Kodos just being dead. It fits in with the rest of the game's weirdness at least
This mission took me my entire childhood/probably half my teenage years to beat😂
I'm furious. I got to the spaceship with time left, broke through the glass and in the air - and it did NOT give me extra time! It timed out and I had to restart the mission, AGAIN. You got an extra 14 seconds!
I remember me doing the burns parkour as a child
Hated that more than the final mission tbh, the driving is great but the platforming is horrible 😆
this and Set to Kill
you had to be perfect
Please remaster this game
I would love that!
Why does the text keep flashing?
How did you beat the time and not use half of the shortcuts…..
This is the only mission i didnt complete
Now that I see this I remember I never finished this game! I got stuck on the last mission as my car was exploiting all time!
It’s so hard!! Honestly I get pretty proud watching it back lol
Exploiting? You mean exploding? What a fucking moron 😂😂😂
@@HigherKnowledgeArts simply a mistake as I am not an English speaker. No need to insult for that ._.

I saw a streamer named Jerma beat this game. I think it changed him.
The fianl mission is the worst mission too...
5:17 😂😂😂😂😂
Game in general: heh, easy.
This level: OOOOOH SHIT!!
Did granpha abe die?
Andres Flores Mendez not likely.

Hes immortal
El natalan no la paso y este we si :'c

Yo tambien me lo pase, estuvo fácil :v

How did u drive that fast
Lots of practice and holding my breath!
What if the game won’t let you skip.
Interested upload .. Very creative as well thanks for sharing.. Thumb up .. Have a great week See you around ❤❤❤❤👍
I remember I axidenrly stepped on my memory card and I was on the last mission off this chapter I LITERLY got my ps2 and threw it out the window and I never looked back untill now
I never started a game like this where by the end I loathed this game and never want to play it ever again
Is this a remastered version or something
Nope, it’s the original game (:
You make it look so easy...
Thats like the worst car ever
I remember i found a secret car i think in the 3rd stage
In a container
Heheh... So how many tries did it take to beat this?
God I can’t remember you know... I think my brain has probably blocked it out haha
Even big smoke thinks this mission is tough
Nah he stops by SA on the way to the school playground to make a quick order
3:41
Piece of cake.....NOT
I SMELL TOAST!
best game ever
I'm here for Natalan
25 Min talk Dianne and Lucy
