Talk:Ultimate Simpsons Doom

A nicely written new article, but I'm afraid that a page for this mod already exists here: The Simpsons


 * This page is far more comprehensive (although it has/had a lot of errors, including markup errors, some of which I've corrected). I agree that we don't need two pages on the same subject. -- RobertATfm 09:58, June 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've now requested that the above page (or to be exact its target, since it redirects to The Ultimate Simpsons Doom 2) be merged into this one, since although the above is older, this one is more comprehensive and has a shorter title. Also, the redirect target has a misleading title, since this PWAD can be used with Doom-based WADs, not just Doom2-based ones. — RobertATfm 06:47, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Clip sources
How about adding the sources for the various clips used, where known? For instance, Bart's "Ow! Quit it" is from the very first episode (Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire), whilst Moe's "I don't deserve such shabby treatment" is from Who Shot Mr. Burns, part 2. Maggie's "Daddy!" (voiced by Elizabeth Taylor) is from an episode whose name I don't remember, and was the first time she spoke in a canonical episode (AFAIK still the only time, apart from the credits sequence of the movie, in which she said "Sequel?"). The two clips from the "Itchy and Scratchy Theme" are of course stock clips.

It would add interest to the article to source the other clips. -- RobertATfm 09:58, June 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think somebody (perhaps more than one person) should go through the clips and correct the quotes where needed. I've already corrected two errors; one of Moe's "player sighted" sounds was misquoted as "Who're you looking at, fatty?" but the correct quote is actually "What are you looking at?" (and the "fatty" actually comes from Abe Simpson's second "player sighted" clip, which is currently missing from the page); and Bumblebee Man's death sound was misquoted as "oh, muchos buenos" (which I think is Spanish for "very good", thus doesn't make sense in this context) but the correct clip is "ay, no es bueno" ("this isn't good"?).


 * Talking of which, adding English translations of the Bumblebee Man clips would probably also be a point of interest. — RobertATfm 05:41, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Misleading category?
Since this PWAD only replaces sounds and graphics (and not all of those in either case), is it really a total conversion? I would have thought "partial conversion" is more apt. — RobertATfm 06:47, June 17, 2011 (UTC)
