Crazy Taxi (Game Cube, 2001)

In Crazy Taxi, ALL (AND I MEAN ALL) you do is pick up a person in your cab drive them to their destination to drop them off and repeat doing that until you get bored, and trust me, it will not take long.

Most of my reviews are ALOT longer than this, but this is short simply because the game has no depth, storyline or anything to it. Only get this game if you have a child who can somehow have fun driving people around for hours on end.

If you ask me the replay value is shorter than this guide.

By the way, want a GOOD, CHEAP taxi game? The just buy GTA III, steal a taxi, click the right analog, and have fun, (it would even have better graphics).

I bought this game for my boyfriend, and after watching him play it, I don't know why he wanted it. The controls seem difficult to get used to and the game is very repetitive. If you want a taxi game, try Simpsons Road Rage. It is almost the same exact concept, except with more interesting characters (obviously), easier controls, and more exciting levels.

Loved the game,nothing wrong with it! I bought it because i hear it was funa nd played it at a friends so decided to check it out at ebay. It was amazing and even my parents love playing it

In addition to 1,000 on-line reviews I'd like to note this:

Cool Points:

Crazy taxi is a port + extras of the classic arcade game and has great nostalgic value for those who played the game before.

It's fairly simple to learn. The controls are easy.

User can decide how long to play: 3min, 5, 10. It's a great game if you don't have hours to suffer through level after level of bosses and obstacles.

Caveats:

Once you've mastered the techniques and played through all the extras, there is not much else to do other than get better at it. This game is for short but sweet sessions.

Graphics are pretty much the same as they were in the arcade and not too exceptional.

PROS:
I bought this game for my son who loves the Arcade version. It's pretty much the same game with only a few extras (an extra level and the ability to play a set time limit game).

CONS:
The voice overs use mildly offensive language (like DAMN and such); absolutely not needed. And since there are not that many voice overs, you hear the same rude expression repeated over and over again. Unfortunately, in the audio settings/options there is only a master style volume control... hence, you can't turn the voices off and leave the other game sounds on. Very disappointing. Also, it's only 1 player.

BOTTOM LINE:
If you have an XBOX and must have this game, check out CRAZY TAXI 3. It's under $10 and has "more game" to it (such as 4 player split screen).

I have been looking to buy this game at a reasonable price for over 6 months. I found it on ebay at a reasonable price and it shipped pretty fast. Great find.

I love that you can drive around smash cars and more! The game is fun all together. I wish everyone had one! The reason I know Iis i played it at my Friends house it is the best game cube game ever very good greaphics!!!!!!! I reacmed i rate A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I Like the game and it works really Good, i desided to buy it cause of the good price on it and shipping.

I've enjoyed this game for going on 10 years and decided to consolidate it onto my Wii with the Gamecube version. It's still fun and the gameplay is still there. The colors don't seem as vibrant, but it's not a large difference. The big difference is in the voices used for the cab customers. There's not nearly as much variation as with the Dreamcast and arcade versions. Every other person sounds the same; says the same things over and over. This gets pretty annoying, pretty quick.

I'll be keeping my Sega Dreamcast.

No promblems what so ever with the game. No hassles or anything about getting the product to me. Took about 3 days USPS. Very very satisfied

My fiance' loves this game!! She can't believe how fun it is to play, over and over!
Good purchase! Great seller!

The game works great and it's fun! You will lose interest in a few days, though. Sadly, the game doesn't work with the Gamecube Wheel which I have.

It is a very exciting game. There are a lot of thrills for someone of a younger age like teens to young adults. The graphics are great and it has a lot of action. Husband really enjoys.

some people are trashing this game, but hey, whoe's to complain. Could you make the game?. Yeaahhh.It is repetitive but it is great to play every once in awhile. Mild language. Have fun driving through buildings buses and launching over highways!

As simple as it may be, Crazy Taxi is truly a classic. While the Gamecube addition doesn't stray too far from its arcade roots, and is virtually identical to the Dream cast version, its a game that's fun for all. There isn't a trye purpose, as very little goals exist in the game other than having sheer fun driving a taxi around a city. Its defiantly a great choice, especially since it can be found on sites such as eBay for next to nothing.

This game is very addictive once you start to play it. I love games that you have to race to places to hurry and take people.

I got the game very fast !!!!!!! Excellent service !!! Quick responce time !!!I love this game !!!!!

The game came as discribed and was what i ordered the shipping was good and the online expierience was terrific
