Hello fresh isn’t that great. Some of the portion sizes are small and you still need to go to the shops for milk and other food items for breakfast and lunch. I don’t rate it at all.
Best speedrun is about a bald fat man driving his car also who wants Donuts at the quick e Mart. Homer: "we have to drive why must everything be so hard!" 😂
Pfft have you seen the crap they actually ship? Wilted soft half-dead vegetables that look like they fell off the truck at some point, and the meat is always reformed processed paste.
That’s so true, it always felt a little different when we switched back to homer or Bart. More areas unlocked as you returned to those characters which kept the game very fresh as a kid.

I have to give a big shoutout to the Simpsons Hit And Run Tips / Speedruns community (SHaRTS) for being a vibrant and helpful place to learn about this game. Great folks!
Your speedruns explained series is the biggest hidden gem on UA-cam. I've caught a couple of Liquid's streams. Love how technical and broken this run can get.
Played this way too much as a kid! If I saw these skips and reset tricks years ago my mind would've went into orbit. Would love a remake and thank you for playing this gem.
BRUH The unfinished highway shortcut explains everything. When I played as a kid I couldn't complete the timed DMV mission, because I never used the unfinished parts of the road, I had to download the trainer to freeze the time.
Hi! This is the first video of yours that I've watched and you're so entertaining and informative!! I had to subscribe. That hour flew by and I was glued to the screen watching your gameplay and commentary. Good job, keep it up!
Simpsons Hit and Run…..a masterpiece of a Childhood game, i really really hope we eventually get a remaster of the game with more missions, i would love that so much
42:35 I remember years and years ago watching a 100% run where you had to grind those coins for like 30 minutes straight to get money for the rest of the run. It was the only speedrun I could find on youtube too, crazy to see how many runs there are now, even the 100% category which is hours faster than the one I saw years ago. I can also confirm that at 73rd place, you still have the fastest "69 fps run" lol
my sister and i played this game CONSTANTLY when we were kids!! we literally just bought a refurbished game cube to keep playing it after our wii broke hahaha
i watched the WHOLE of the sponsor section purely based off of how smooth this guy got it to show up. major props to you. usually i just skip the section cause its just copy+pasted into the script. but this dude got that smooth af. good job. and amazing vid.
If you want to see how the game could look remastered. There's a creator called reubs on UA-cam who has been remaking it, sadly for copyright reasons he can't release it. But it looks insane
I picked up this game for my GameCube. Kinda collecting old games from my childhood and I gotta say. Even collecting everything for the first stage of the game alone took forever. I could not imagine attempting to speed run that. Props 👏
Did my first run yesterday and got a 1:54:35. I've played for years and finally decided to see if I could get a good time. Didn't practice any of the strats and choked most of them, but I'm content with having a sub 2 hour run. I'll probably give it another crack, but I don't know how runners can play the same segments over and over, requires a lot of dedication.
Hey man new sub, your content is quite enjoyable and your passion and persistence towards speed running is awesome. Can’t wait to see what you got in store for the future
7:57 you don't actually get more coins from your car blowing up, you actually lose your coins like sonic and have to pick them back up. I know because I tried farming for way too long as a kid before I noticed. (unless you are talking about something else?)
I used to play this game all the time as a kid but never finished it due to not having a memory card cant explain how many times i tried to get further and further playing. Barts car always got me stuck playing him until the reset because it was cool to me back them
Before running the game you can right click it and go to properties and find compatibility. You can select that and change compatibility for windows xp. cheers.
can i say, EA didn’t publish this game, but activison did, Radical entertainment made it, the same guys that made prototype, activision dissolved that company
I wonder if the unknown substance bit in the cola kind of reminds me of the opening story of the Sarah Jane Adventures pilot story where aliens have taken on human form and slipped some alien stuff into the energy drink (while trying to bypass EU approval)? If so, where's the story part where the Buzz Cola factory is infiltrated and a certain person (who is really a disguised alien) pays off the FDA, thus setting up the tainted Buzz Cola part of the storyline. PS. I would have added a disguised alien princess, posing as a friend of the Simpsons, one of the survivors of a colony that has been destroyed by the Rigelians. To get revenge, she blends in as an older human girl, about 12-13, a bestie of the Simpsons kids and family. She is secretly revealed to witness the corruption of the Buzz Cola and takes a can or two for analysis. She somehow escapes, but she now has to blend to escape the Rigelians that destroyed her home colony, now posing as a best friend of Lisa and Bart Simpson...
I got the flying car from the mad scientist character, can't remember his name. Was so happy when I did it. That thing was so speedy and rocket car was great too!
I played this game a lot when I was young and the furthest I ever got in the game was with Marge. I'd never finished it so I'm finally able to see the ending with this video.
I have genuinely asked for a ps2 and this game for Christmas with the classic Simpson’s game godfather and sims 2 I’m bouta smoke some and relive my childhood

The next game you speedrun should be the spongebob squarepants movie game or battle for bikini bottom.
Do you like the replay ability in the series Ratchet and clank?

I cannot emphasize how well this game makes repeat zones feel so aesthetically different. Not alot of current games even come close.
That’s so true, it always felt a little different when we switched back to homer or Bart. More areas unlocked as you returned to those characters which kept the game very fresh as a kid.
Especially since they make the whole town spooky for the end that blew wmy lil kid mind
It's amazing what alternate lighting and slightly moving assets around can do for a level. Homer 1, Marge 1, and Homer 2 all feel so distinct imo
52:01
52:01 52:01 52:01 52:01
That clip of the car shooting into the sky from a single collision convinced me: *someone should make a glitchfest TAS of Hit & Run* .
Convinced you that someone else should do something lol
... ik u never left me ⛔️👈
... And ik u probably right for me 👦🤜🤛

@Shizune Hakamichi I'm pretty sure the PS2 is TASable.
@ShizuneHakamichi What makes a game un-TASable? I've never even heard of that before
I have to give a big shoutout to the Simpsons Hit And Run Tips / Speedruns community (SHaRTS) for being a vibrant and helpful place to learn about this game. Great folks!
LMFAOOOO SHARTS
might wanna rephrase that acronym lol
HHHHHHAAAAAAAA 😭😭😭😭😭😭SHARTS
Speedrunners after playing this game: "I'm a mean, lean, speed thingy!"
Your speedruns explained series is the biggest hidden gem on UA-cam.
I've caught a couple of Liquid's streams. Love how technical and broken this run can get.
Check out tomatoanus
For those who don't know @LiquidWifi is like the main Runner for this game so if you want to watch more. There you go

An immense amount of enjoyment came from playing this game back when I was a kid. It’s a shame they don’t make them like this anymore

Man, I am absolutely *LOVING* these new sr vids as of late. Keep up the incredible work, EZ! Looking forward to more amazing runs in the future!
I must've run thorugh this game at least 50 times as a kid and had purely by accident figured out a lot of these strats already. What a nosalgia trip
As a frequent viewer in LiquidWifi's stream, this was a pleasant surprise
Congrats on your PB and good commentary! This was enjoyable to watch.
We love an hour of EZ content

Yeah but you didn't buy it, did you
Who gives a fuck if you watch a 30sec ad, compliment with your wallet ya brokie

Old man yells at [Great Deal] LMFAO 💀
Great vid my man! :D

Hey man new sub, your content is quite enjoyable and your passion and persistence towards speed running is awesome. Can’t wait to see what you got in store for the future
I watched so many of these streams, so hyped that the video is finally out!
I clicked in for the speedrun, I stayed for the "old man yells at GREAT DEAL"
great video btw you look like Jack Harlow's doppelganger and i can't unsee it
actually amazing ad transition LMFAO
What a fantastic video EZ, super noob friendly adn really entertaining. I absolutely loved watching it. Great work!
wow that traffic despawning works the same way as in GTA 3. Learned that as a kid 20ish years ago XD
My mind controlled brain: Remember the Simpsons Hit and run?
The UA-cam algorithm:
Yes, you do, here is some nostalgia
there is a guy on youtube rebuilding the game from scratch in HD. he shows the process, its cool
I used to play this when I was younger, it took me a long time just to finish the game. This is amazing skill.
When your parents wouldn’t buy you San Andreas and were insisting you buy something family friendly.
Holy shit the transition to advertising was on point
easily my favorite ps2 game I played as a kid
that was freaking awesome!
This was a awesome game loved it growing up cool to see people this playin it
being an ocarina of time runner i heard 10:29 and was like "wtf ess is in a simpson game too?"
7:57 you don't actually get more coins from your car blowing up, you actually lose your coins like sonic and have to pick them back up. I know because I tried farming for way too long as a kid before I noticed. (unless you are talking about something else?)
Hmm
From blowing up traffic cars you do!
@@EZScapeSpeedruns but they drop way less coins
I'll never forget when I found out there were more levels other than the first Homer one.
Hey ez would you please try the RuneScape quest speedruns?
I'll beat your ass at waterfall quest! /s
Yeah that would be pretty cool
@@SECONDQUEST is that all
That sounds lit
Replaying this game normally drives me insane let alone speedrunning. But I utterly love and adore it.
You're joking I was just getting into Hit and Run videos yesterday and now I get this too haha what a treat!
I'm quite happy about that.
Great video, great speedrun, great gaming.
it's the famous ctd wowly moly
I used to play this game all the time as a kid but never finished it due to not having a memory card cant explain how many times i tried to get further and further playing. Barts car always got me stuck playing him until the reset because it was cool to me back them
This run made me want to buy this game for ps2. I’m glad I did
Played this a while back. Was as good as I remembered
I used to play this game all the time as a kid and I still love it!
I haven't played the game since a kid, but I will hope I get the chance to play it again... definitely one of the greatest games ever created.
can't wait for reubs to finish his remaster
Holy shit that sponsorship transition was insanely well done!
I was so happy playing this game as a kid on GameCube … good old days
The cheat code where you can one tap cars and jump super high bring me back to simpler times
Thanks for this video. We hope and believe that it will bring a new good audience to our community
I love how you pronounce brewery. BUUREEE
Before running the game you can right click it and go to properties and find compatibility. You can select that and change compatibility for windows xp. cheers.
Casual gamer here and I just gotta say Set to Kill drove me crazy 😤🤬 nice run !
This game was so ungodly fun when I was a kid.
If a hit and run remake was a thing and it was only avaliable on ps5 I would consider buying a ps5 just for the remake
EZScape for the win :D
can i say, EA didn’t publish this game, but activison did, Radical entertainment made it, the same guys that made prototype, activision dissolved that company
There is another guy remaking the game on UA-cam in unreal engine, it’s amazing
Liking before I even watch because hit and run
Man this game rocked
I never managed to beat this game when I was a kid, and I've always wanted to replay it. This might just be the motivation I needed.

The real speedrun is skipping the ad
10:28 oooh wtf unique asl.
Hypothetically, couldn't you just run window's XP on a virtual machine to avoid wonky driving? That way you don't need to downgrade your actual PC
If reubs can finish his Simpsons remaster I would love to see a speed run of that version
This dude sounds exactly like Lethamyr it's freaking me out
I got the flying car from the mad scientist character, can't remember his name. Was so happy when I did it. That thing was so speedy and rocket car was great too!
wow this channel new
based ezscape video
great video, but I can't help but notice that you look like if Joshua Gomez was Greek
WHY DID THIS NOT SHOW UP ON MY FEED FOR 6 DAYS
You're currently in 69th place. That's kinda interesting tbh
What remix of Numb is this?
I know someone was remastering this as a pet project.
Someone has done a remaster I can't remember who but there is 🎉
I played this game a lot when I was young and the furthest I ever got in the game was with Marge. I'd never finished it so I'm finally able to see the ending with this video.
ggs Mr. Scape
This game was my childhood. I definitely want to speedrun it one day.
69 fps, and petty theft homer at 4:20. Nice
It’s funny how cell-out is hard for casual runs and speedrun runs
The best part is the car with rocket jets
My first time watching you and I swear to GOD you sound like WaifuRuns...wonder if you're related....
OTHER THAN THAT, GREAT VIDEO!
awesome game I played this so much as a kid good memories, the game had artists develop this no doubt, i like the marge and homer 2 maps
0:34 If you watch ~very~ closely, you can see the exact frame where his eyes goes dead with disappointment
9:12 That's epic
Was waiting for a video like this, awesome.
Absolutely God Tier game 🔥
You gotta watch NerdCubed's playthrough of this game. He considers it to be one of his favorites.
This video: I messed everything up and still beat my pb
Love this game
neat. and neat game
I have genuinely asked for a ps2 and this game for Christmas with the classic Simpson’s game godfather and sims 2 I’m bouta smoke some and relive my childhood
