Although the map is beautiful (and probably fun), there's something disturbing about seeing the Simpsons characters kill each other.

Well, I've certainly seen this one many years ago.
What a blast from the past.

Aww, i imagined the author of this article with a *forever alone* face saying "well no one showed it to me".

A nice video but i have seen it so many times by now thanks to stumble upon that it evokes hate rather than awe.

Oh and in case you are thinking "well 2007 isn't that long ago, he links to a myspace account.

Not only it's too late but there's also a Counter Strike map based on The Simpsons and Simpsons models for Counter Strike. So Simpsons are no stranger to FPS games for a long time now.

There have been a lot of Simpsons maps around since the day of earliest CS.b but i never saw anything this detailed. Very good and a lot of work i would say

Was that the Stonecutters' HQ at the end? I'm 95% certain it was... anyway, this is great. I love the little nods at old episodes and everything, and the visuals are amazing compared to the show itself. Though it's an old mod, I nevertheless hope the modder does a Futurama-based one next :D.

Yeah, you're a bit late on the jump there. I remember Cracked showed this on their video about creepy Simpsons fans, and I believe I first saw that a year or two ago. And apparently this is even older, so I guess I found out about this pretty late as well.

The freakish thing is, I was watching THIS EXACT VIDEO last night. And it's nearly four years old. Is there some connection I'm missing or is this really just a freak coincidence?

That's neat. I've certainly never seen or heard of it before, so I'm glad it was posted here as something of curiosity, since it's not exactly something I'd expect to see heavily covered. Just because you saw it on the Internet a few years ago doesn't mean it's common knowledge to everyone.

I think the term you're looking for is fratricide as Familicide isn't even a word.

I like how this map looks, but it looks too similar to another Q3 mod/stand alone and completely free game, named World of Padman.

I can admit when I am wrong, and this would be one of those times. I could have sworn I had heard the word on the news (I probably had, actually) and when I Googled to make sure it was in fact a word, I got a Wikipedia article [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Familicide] about familicide. That's what I get for trusting the internet. Next time, I'll actually crack a dictionary.

As a side note, fratricide wouldn't really work, either. Fratricide is murdering your brother. Sororicide is killing your sister, patricide is killing your father, and matricide is killing your mother. So far as I can tell, there's no catch-all phrase for killing your family members.

I guess I'll just have to go on making up words like familicide.

And to everyone who has mentioned it, you're all correct. This news is quite old, another boo-boo on my part. I'm going to pass the buck and blame Boing Boing, because I choose to deny responsibility for my actions.
