It's not just South Park who have produced great episodes concerning video games. This Simpsons episode from Season 7 entitled 'Marge Be Not Proud', centres on Bart as he desperately tries to get his hands on the latest video game sensation, Bonestorm. SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
After Marge refuses to buy Bonestorm for him, claiming games are noisy and they distract you from school work, Bart sees if he can play the game some other way.
He tries to rent it but all of the copies are out, and Milhouse won't share his copy, so after witnessing a gang of kids shoplifting from a local supermarket Bart decides to do the same.
Favourite Bit: Where Bart is standing by the video games and his conscience takes on the form of famous characters. Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong and Sonic all agree he should steal the game, claiming it's the video games companies fault for making him want it so much.
