    this game holds a special place in my heart. it was my first ps2 game given to me by my uncle (a taxi driver) who just died a few years ago of cancer. every time i see this game i think of him.

    I remember 2000, workin at the arcade, spending my breaks sitting in the Crazy Taxi machine, flicking reverse-drive for speed boosts and getting a score of "S". Those were good times =)

    Only problem is the lack of The Offspring in this port.

    How can they not have The Offspring and Bad Religion songs in this? That's what made the game awesome tbh.

    I love this game but i'm stuck on the last crazy box challange, you have to race around the whole Arcade map and i keep missing the last checkpoint by about 30 seconds!!!

  • @DementedDistraction
    @DementedDistraction 8 лет назад +26

    Sucks they replaced The Offspring's music from the original release - I'm not even all that much of an Offspring fan, but that soundtrack defined this game's personality. Without it, it just kinda seems like a cheap knock-off.

    • @Dr.Manninton
      @Dr.Manninton 4 года назад +2

      I know but the reason it's not there is because Sega's contract with bad religion and offspring ran out so they replaced it 😞

      The original soundtrack can be played over the music if you have the music saved to the XMB.

    I'm going to buy Crazy Taxi today. I already bought After Burner Climax and Daytona USA. Sega games are the best. I'm also going to buy Fighting Vipers, Nights into Dreams, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Generations, Sonic the Fighters, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II, The House of the Dead 4, Virtua Fighter 2 & Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown.

    I remember back in the day playing it on the dream cast. The hair salon near me had it, so I could get a hair cut and play video games!
    Tried to buy this for PS2 but I returned it since it didn't work (mine doesn't seam to like the blue disks). I don't have a PS3 but I heard it is for GameCube so I am going to try and get it for that. The game cube remote is is more like the Dream cast one anyway.
