Futurama

If you’ve played any of the games based on the universally lauded TV mainstay The Simpsons, you’ll want to approach the playable version of Matt Groening’s Futurama with caution (and a pair of stink-retardant oven mitts). Take your pick from one-eyed babe Leela, robot Bender, or pizza boy Fry and unleash unique attacks and devastating one-liners (voiced by the show’s actors) that deliver a few titillating moments—Fry can pilot a giant chicken mech and gain new lives courtesy of the professor’s reanimation machine. It’s too bad that clunky controls and eh game play stay forever buried in a time lock of dull sloppiness. Is it ironic to go back to the days before this show about the future was cancelled? Affirmative. Is it fun? Negatory.
