Also, what's the best way to stop on the PS2 version? The IGN "PS2" guide mentions the crazy stop and limit cut, but these don't work. Also, the cheat to get a speedometer doesn't work, so I suspect the have copied the Dreamcast version's guide. Slackers.

Crazy Taxi 2 for the DC isnt as good as it seems. The Crazy Jump is good and the ability to pick up to 4 people at a time is good. But the 2 levels dont seem to be as great as the levels in Crazy Taxi. The drivers dont seem as great as the first game. The music seems also better in the first one. Overrall I was a big fan of the first one but the second is only just about as good. If you liked the first then you will like this but this game is not a reason to get a DC. Crazy Taxi 2 isnt released over here just yet theres still 2 weeks, unless you got the American copy like I have.

No sega didn't! Sega had NOTHING to do with the conversion of the game! Acclaim did. The reason is that acclaim hold the licenses for ALL Ferrari games. So, to let F355 come out in the West, Sega let acclaim port 3 sega games (crazy taxi, and 2 less well known ones)

Never is the answer.
The PS2 is far more powerful than the DC, it was a wasted opportunity to make a great game better.
