    Uno de los mejores árcades echos en Dreamcast, su jugabilidad es muy divertida combinando con su estética y una ciudad muy llena de vida el juego no tiene historia solo encarnamos a un puñado de taxistas que deberán ganar dinero de manera divertida chocando y saltando por todos lados hay varios tipos de clientes que cambia la dificultad del juego los que tienen un    Duracion: 4 horas

    Uno de los mejores árcades echos en Dreamcast, su jugabilidad es muy divertida combinando con su estética y una ciudad muy llena de vida el juego no tiene historia solo encarnamos a un puñado de taxistas que deberán ganar dinero de manera divertida chocando y saltando por todos lados hay varios tipos de clientes que cambia la dificultad del juego los que tienen un destino corto luego los que tienen un destino mas largo y por ultimo los azules que son 4 clientes juntos y debemos ir a varios puntos marcados, tendremos variedad de personajes para elegir pero todos son iguales no tienen nada en especial entre ellos el juego hubiera tenido mas puntos a favor si se pudiera elegir el clima y tunear tu coche o mejorarlo pero sin esas cosas el juego es excelente y divertido lo recomiendo para todos los que tengan una Dreamcast y quieran echar horas con este arcade 10 puntos se lleva.    … Expand

    The arcade comes home featuring The Offspring and Bad Religion

    Awesome San Francisco levels that are consistent with early 2000s Sega levels

    andddd of course some of the coolest characters around!

    Too much of the same old, tired game - and the new doesn't cut it at all...

    It's a pretty awesome game, the only thing bad about it is it gets very boring after you played 45 times and didn't get anywhere. The cheats are pretty cool though.

    It has the same great gameplay mechanics as the first game, a solid soundtrack and fun characters. By all accounts, this *should* be another banger. The problem is, it lacks the smart map design that made the first Crazy Taxi such an immediately playable experience.

The problem is, it lacks the smart map design that made the first Crazy Taxi such an immediately playable experience.

    In the original Crazy Taxi, the map was very linear, and each section was visually distinct. This made it so the player was rarely lost and always had a clear path to where they needed to go. The only barrier was execution. In Crazy Taxi 2, it's just the opposite. The map is denser, and every section of this big city blends together visually. Unless the whole city is memorized, the player will never be able to orient themselves.

    It creates a roadblock for the player before they can enjoy that addictive Crazy Taxi gameplay. It strikes me as the developers not quite understanding the secret sauce that made the first game such a hit. It has the mechanics, the style, the music, but not the glue that holds it all together.    … Expand

    Unfortunately, the game's graphics are about the same as its predecessor's, and no multiplayer split-screen or online modes are offered.

    The game is constructed on a solid engine, offers exceptional gameplay, and has some of the best graphics seen in any DC title to date. While the game doesn’t make the revolutionary leap many fans were looking for, what’s here is rock solid.

    Crazy Taxi 2 may have new gameplay mechanics, new cities, and new mini-games than Crazy Taxi but that doesn't make it better than the original. And like I said above, there are some controls issues that I noticed, but that really doesn't effect the enjoyment of the game.
