Powers House Out of Scale

We often have scale complaints...... I'm not sure they pay any attention to other things when designing.

    This was initially true, but over the years they have only appeared sporadically so maybe it can be said that they moved into that new house. The house has been used by others over the years particularly Sideshow Bob used it in an episode...


    They based it on this one from their first appearance, except that one looks smaller too:

    Does it bother anybody else that the Simpson's house on the show is always shown with a brick wall on one side, yet the one in the game doesn't have it? It seems like a pretty important detail to leave out.

    Can anybody post a picture of it

    That actually looks good. I guess the trick is putting it next to a slightly bigger house, like Sanjay's.

    Thanks :) I tried it a few different places before buying it. And it's very true that it just looked wrong next to smaller houses.

    I put the house next to the brown house but after seeing this picture i may have to move a few buildings about to put it next to that one as it certainly suit it better :D
  • It looks gigantic next to Sanjay's house, which in turn is huge next to the regular houses. I bought the Lovejoy house just so Sanjay's house wouldn't be alone.

    Right, that's the actual house from the initial appearance, it's just extremely odd since the brown house is that same house...whomever animated the episode either purposely changed the house for just the episode or didn't know the building always had a different look...
