Simpsons videogame trailer in two days?

People aren't sure if this mysterious GTA knock-off site is for the Simpsons videogame, but as a Simpsons addict, I can assure you that yes, it is. First, the yellow background is reminiscent of the show, but the real key lies in the number XXII -- twenty-two for those not gifted in the Roman Numerals. See, the show started way back in 1987 on the Tracy Ullman Show. While this may not be exactly correct, add those shows to those that have been on Fox (19 seasons scheduled), we'd have approximately 22 "seasons". Or 21... maybe this game will be part of the 22nd. Okay, so that's a shaky bit of reasoning, but listen on.

The biggest notion towards the Simpsons videogame is the countdown itself -- look at the font. That's unmistakably the Simpsons' own credits font. Ta-da. Will we finally get a port of that awesome arcade game from way back when? Will it be a sandbox, almost MMO type game where you can create a new character in Spingfield and interact with all those characters we know and love? Who knows. We'll check back in two days.
