    All you losers seem to forget that Crazy Taxi was out BEFORE Simpsons Road Rage, typical of you Americans I bet you even thought that The Matrix was origanal as well. Wake up you losers and pull your head out of your frigging a**!! [Ed: Chill, dingdong, chill....]

    This is one of the best race/taxi games out there for the cube. it's hard and challenging without feeling that the task is impossible.

    [Spanish] Un juego en el que tenías una ciudad entera para conducir por ella, años antes que el GTA, diversión Arcade y mucha velocidad en un calco de la recreativa, si no has jugado a Crazy Taxi y te gustan los juegos rápidos de corte arcade, ya estás tardando.

    In my opinion, there are only a handful of games that thrive solely on their gameplay loop. Crazy Taxi is a game that definitely fits this criteria, and the GC version has it's own physics and controls that make it feel unique.

    If you were a fan of Crazy Taxi back in the day like I was, you will enjoy this game. The Gamecube version is solid and the gameplay, visuals and music all remain the same after all these years. I picked it up for a low price and I do enjoy it. Good, arcade fun. The only issue I have found with the game is that sometimes before or after you pick up a fare, the car may not accelerate.

This has caused me to lose lots of time. It's a little clunky and takes some finessing, but overall, it's Crazy Taxi, a classic arcade gem that must be in your collection.… Expand

    It is fun to do everything that a taxi driver does, but with more road rage. The game modes make it worth it and the events provide a little extra to the game for entertainment.

    This is not one of the "best video games ever made". It's fun and enjoyable, but it's a 5 or 6 out of 10.

    The game is simple, elegant and everything that a "game" should be: fun.

    While Electronic Art's blatant clone, "Simpsons Road Rage," has much improved graphics, a two-player mode, and free ride option, Crazy Taxi still comes out ahead in pure controllability and gameplay.
