I’ll be honest here; I don’t think I’ve ever played a port in my life. In case you didn’t know, ports are when developers move games from one console to another without changing too much. I hate ports, at least after playing Crazy Taxi on the PS2. This is a lazy port. The graphics look like the Dreamcast version and there’s not a whole lot of new content as well. Plus, the voice acting is bad and the music isn’t to everyone’s tastes. And yet, and here comes the sad part, the game itself was actually really fun, exciting and addictive. But, it’s not enough. Sega needed to add more content, make the graphics much better for the system and maybe change the ...  Read the complete review

Crazy Taxi is one of my favourite games for the Playstation 2 but at the same time it doesn't have much replay value. But for a short term rush you can't beat it. This game was originally released in 2000 and has always been one of the biggest titles around. In this version you take on the role of one of four taxi drivers and you have to set out to make as much money as possible. You have find customers, pick them up and take them to where they want to go and then collect your fare. Pretty simple. You start out in San Francisco in either arcade or original mode. Whichever mode you choose you goal is the same and you have to stop within range of a ...  Read the complete review

I bought this a number of years ago on PC but when unpackaged and installed, the computer decided it didn't like the look of it after all and much to my disappointment, decided against allowing it to work. So I took it back and soon after decided to get the PS2 version, which was on sale in my local Game. Having played the actual arcade version some time previous, my excitement levels were high, although not through the roof as they would have been had this been a brand new football game. I took it home, popped it in the PS2 and 20 minutes later was feeling a sense of overwhelming underwhelment. The graphics were okay, the soundtrack was okay, if not a tad ...  Read the complete review

I loved playing this game back in 2001 when it first came out. Now 8 years after its release, is it still enjoyable? GAMEPLAY Basically, the clues in the name!

I purchased the platinum version of this game as part of a 3 for £20 offer which was at my local Game store. I had played this game before but not for quite a few years and I brought back great memories of nostalgia and playing against my friends to see who was the best taxi driver. The game is just for one player which means that you're going to have to take it in turns if you want to have mini competitions which my fiance and I have been doing quite a lot lately as it's our main means of entertainment when we are out my house (mainly because the xbox 360 is always left in his bedroom as it's his pride and joy!) The aim of the game is to ...  Read the complete review
