• "The Simpsons" Matt Groening reveals the location of Springfield
    87 replies, posted
One of my sisters friends used to live in an estate called Springfield. Always got shit for it, people asking how the Simpsons are, and various other jokes. She just laughs at it now, but it really got her pissed back then
He hasn't revealed anything? He had mentioned where he got the name for Springfield many many times so this is nothing new.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;35522371]I want to know where "The City" from Mirror's Edge is located, or City 17 from Half-Life. :v:[/QUOTE] City 17 is a population center from before the Combine invasion and the 7 Hour War. It existed during the 2 decades that portal storms were ravaging the planet following the resonance cascade. As Alyx says "It's like the first days all over again." That's why the city is a clash of architectural styles, languages and everyone seems to speak English. You might also notice that the gas pumps change currency between HL2 and EP2 (When you're out of the city) This is why it can't be placed on the map.

[QUOTE=Shibbey;35524489]City 17 is in Eastern Europe.[/QUOTE] I neglected to mention that but I thought that was pretty obvious. I meant that it couldn't be physically pinpointed as a specific city in a specific location.

Nonsense. It doesn't rain enough to be in Oregon.

Guys, guys, chill, I know the real location. Springfield, U.S.A. Works for me
Saying that he thought of the name because of that place and saying it is that place are two very different things.
Makes sense, Oregon hasn't been funny for a decade and a half either.
Funny how Homer revealed it in his twitter as well.

In one episode he said the family were from Northern Kentucky.
Thought it was Springfield, Missouri. :I
[QUOTE=Daniel Smith;35519244]Now I want to know the location of Quahog, South Park and everywhere else.[/QUOTE] Quahog is in Road Island and South Park is in Colorado, they literally mention in both shows all the time [editline]13th April 2012[/editline] Also He probably revealed where Springfield is in because the show is actually going to end after it's 24th season next year
