    I doubt they'll add celebs, The Simpsons isnt really that kind of show. Sure they have celeb guests, but they're usually playing a character, not themselves.

    I say that because I hope some day they introduce the security guard character keifer sutherland payed. "Walking home in the rain" would be a great visual task.

    There have been many times where a celebrity has had a guest appearance as themselves;

    Look up a list of guest stars on the Simpsons, they are absolutely that kind of show, there have been tons of celebrities playing themselves on the show.

    I'm not really a fan of real life celebrities, I'd much rather have actual Simpson characters. Seems like a rather weak attempt to advertise your game anyway.

    I think I'd only be interested in seeing celebrities in the game if they've appeared in the show.

    Granted, celebs HAVE appeared as themselves like I said, what I meant was that FG is a show that references celeb culture while The Simpsons make jokes about it.

    As long as he comes with an update that includes mulder and scully, along with a task, preferably animated, to "watch Homer's fat jiggle".

    I don't think the simpsons will ever do it, but it would be cool.

    Are the celebs characters in FG voiced?
    The ones I got so far are voiced which is even cooler! :mrgreen:

    Even that would be something, and considering how many seasons they had the would add up to hefty sum of celebrities.

    I just checked on Wikipedia and a fe other sites to see how many guest stars and unique characters there were. My jaw dropped! There's literally enough characters just on that list to create a whole new game!

    There were probably over 75-100 characters/celebrities!! :shock:

    That would be crucial!! Burns saying "I come in peace" LOL!

    And then the could be several tasks for other characters from that episode. That was one of my favorites!

    They have made some small references to older episodes before. Like when we had Homer task "Eat the Guatemalan Insanity Pepper" which was definitely a classic episode!! I wish the task for that was actually visual, but it would have been hard to do it justice. The reference alone made me smile and laugh, and brought back so many memories!! That is why I love TSTO so much.

    I agree with everything you said, including the last part. Not likely to happen. The B and C list celebrities we have now are the closest thing we will have. But those are nice, I really like Dedrick Tatum.

    But as you said, the Simpsons has had so many memorable ones over the years, it would be a nice addition.

    Ya we can only hope that they expand the characters they add to include some of the celebs they've had on the show. I think they would rather add characters based off of celebs rather than the celebs themselves like Dedrick Tatum and Rainier Wolfcastle. Maybe if the game goes on for several years, EA wil start adding them to spice things up a bit.

    Oh yes, there are definitely plenty of real celebrities to make things quite entertaining.

    At this point it's hard for me to think about extras like celebrities when there has been so little content recently. I'm at that point where I don't even feel like logging in anymore.

    We never have had a "Eat the Guatemalan Insanity Pepper" task from Homer or anyone else. But maybe if we ever get a Chili Cook Off event, we will. Along with other content from that episode

    I can't remember this far back but I remembered a task like that. A few websites say that there was a task like this during level 31 and the Wolfcastle tasks. Are they incorrect?

    That's one event I'm looking forward to, and of they included a visual task for Homer eating the pepper I'd extremely happy! :lol:

    I apologize Deadshot DCU, I respect you and your inputs to this forum, but I have to call you out as being wrong here. It was the Climbing up the D List series of storylines, during one of those parts, Homer was required to Eat the Famous Insanity Pepper, and he went to the police station. It was disappointing being an indoor task, but it definitely did happen. I have a decent memory sometimes, but I admit I am not always right. I just think in this instance I am.

    Your right, we did have an eat peppers for level 31.
    I would want James Brown and Stephen King as guest celebrities.

    I stand corrected. I must have skimmed through that quest fast, because I don't remember it. But it's good to know

    I hope we do get an actual Chili Cook Off event & Homer gets an actual permanent Visual task to eat the Guatemalan Insanity Pepper
