The Simpsons are known for their "couch" openings the spoof pop culture, but this one is one of the best!

The intro for the long lasting cartoon transformed Springfield into Westeros as the citizens took on medieval personas for a Game of Thrones opening.

While we love this bit, we're in dire need of a Games of Thrones fix now!

We guess we'll have to wait until April … but until then:

Check out the video (above) to see this amazing Simpsons intro!

Maybe there should be an entire crossover episode! Lolz!

Hey, teens of the new milenuim. You might not know this, but a long, long time ago, in the far gone time call the 90s, kids actually left their house to play video gams! It seems like a silly concept, we know, but the games were all housed in this place called an "arcade," where a pocketful of change bought you hours upon hours of entertainment. Also a cherry slushie and some Skittles.

Hey, adults who used to be teens of the 90s! Guess what? You can relive your glory days once again — and in the comfort of your own home! The PlayStation Store is adding some classic arcade games to their offerings list, with the headlining adventure being the revival of The Simpsons. Now, on your Playstation, you can once again control Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa as they fight through Springfield past Mr Burns's goons to save little Maggie!

And really, now that you're an adult, why would you want to leave your house anyway???

Oooh! We might need to get a Playstation just to play this again. We always like controlling Bart with his skateboard! Who was UR favorite character to play?
