I will just have to wait and se why they didnt like it that much. I was looking forward to this game. But now I am having doubts. Does anyone know another site that reviewed Crazy Taxi?

Can you honestly be surprised? Did you play the demo that was packed in the last issue of OXM?
Crazy Taxi 3 is no different from the first or the second one on Sega Dreamcast.
I own the original on my DC and was addicted to the game all of a weeks worth. The second was just like it. That's why it's sales were weak, because everyone knew what it was about.
Just like part 3.
Sega's Hitman division needs to think of new idea's for this franshine if the expect it to be successful as the original or it will be too little too late soon.

WHO THE HELL CARES WHAT IGN SAID...................

This is probably one of greatest arcade games in the 90's. If you even read the review it was easy to say that not only did the guy hate this version, but he HATED THE FIRST CRAZY TAXI ALL TOGEther.

The bottom line is that this game delivers- 25 NEW mini games. 3 levels in 3 cities. Many new drives, and many things to unlock. All wraped in the classic Crazy Taxi gameplay.

OBTW, this game got a 9 from EGM, and a 8.6 from Game Informer. All claiming this was the best Crazy Taxi game ever made.

Now Can You DigDat?????!!!!

yeah it was a great game when it came out on dreamcast it was a new idea but they streched it too far and didnt change the game enough from the first one its the same game it was with a few different levels and mini games its like an add-on pack thats all the sequals to crazy taxi are.

Of course I still support Sega. Until da day I die.
But im not crazy (no pun intended) enough to drop $50.00 on a game I know im gonna get bored with in a weeks tops.:rolleyes:
I got burned by Sega's Gunvalkyrie on Xbox, so it's not gonna happen this time around.
But NFL2K3 is coming out next month, so I will get that though!

well, based off of ONE review, i can't really tell. anyways, reviews are really just opinions cause if they were real FACTS (almost impossible), then wouldn't all scores be equivalent to each other?

to tell you the truth I'm not quite sure where Crazy Taxis going from here, I loved the first Crazy Taxi as it was fun and different Crazy Taxi 2 had a jump and was nowhere near as fun as Crazy Taxi 1 now we have Crazy Taxi 3 hmmm I've played the demo and I wasn't impressed with it, it's the same o same o, nothing new or exciting and as you said the graphic haven't been touched up that much.
If they did a remix of Crazy Taxi 1 with loads of new mini games and really tarted up the game I would have bought this even though I've got this on my Dreamcast, the first one was the best, they should have just left it at number one

Not a site, but a mag, Game Informer gave it 8.5 / 10. I dont see how in the world this game isn't going to rule, it has Crazy Taxi 1,2,&3! I am getting this game July 27 I cannot wait. Crazy Taxi is one of my favorite games.

I would buy CT for the XBOX even if they didn't offer anything new. I'm all over this title.

I'm way behind the times, cos I haven't played any of the crazy taxi series. however, I just bought 3 today. since it's just a jazzed up remake, will I like it, since I haven't experienced the game before?

I'm going to Best Buy in a little while to pick up CT3. I wonder if I should look into a wheel, too?

I seriously cannot imagine NOT enjoying this game. I'll let you know.

Replay value is new to me, because I'm lucky to finish a game at all. If that's all a game is judged by, I should buy nearly all of them.
