    I had originally played Crazy Taxi for PC, but decided to try it for PS2 and it goes without a shadow of a doubt that it's just as fun and wild on PS2 as it is on any system.

    This game is a pretty fun game, with its crazy feeling when you play it... It is kind of hard to explain for me.

    It's Craaaaaazyy Taxi! How can you not love this game? Despite it's flaws the premise is very simple and highly addictive. This game will always bring me back to the times as a child in the arcades. This was one of the coolest games you could play. It was great to have that arcade experience in the living room thanks to the Dreamcast. So when that system died out it was great to see arcadeIt's Craaaaaazyy Taxi! How can you not love this game?

    I loveee Crazy Taxi! This game is so much fun and keeps you wanting to play it again and again. You would think that picking up passengers and taking them to their destinations would get old but it surprisingly doesn’t. Drive fast insane and you got yourself Crazy Taxi, now let’s go make some crazyy money! Love the music too, very 2000’s and classic from the Dreamcast. That fun Sega arcadeI loveee Crazy Taxi!

    Classic saga game for PS2 not easy to control but loved doing all the stunts and getting the tips.

    A genuinely fun game that lives up to its name. Besides the classic arcade mode, the console version also has a series of crazy individual challenges. The game and music can be a bit profane at times though.

    The feel of the arcade makes a successful transfer into an exciting and forever entertaining game that teaches everyone to respect those time honored heroes: the cabbies.

    It's a few screws short of perfection, but "Crazy Taxi" is worth playing just to see how the opposite end of the "Gran Turismo 3" scale of driving gameplay stacks up.

    If you’re a gamer looking for some simple, fast-paced auto action then look no further because it just doesn’t get any faster—or simpler—than this.
