Looking at the PS2 page a few days ago, I noticed that only games such as super bombad racing appeared on the list of new releases, not Crazy Taxi despite the fact it was going to be released May 25th. However, now it is known that the release has been delayed until June 1st.

Personally I don`t mind if it gets delayed another week after that even, as I won`t be back from Uni until the 9th of June.

But then on Wednesday you will say who invented Wednesday. This can go on until we get 365 weeks a year namely just Fridays.

On Friday, i am gonna wake up, get changed, then march down to my local store with a handful of cash to buy Crazy Taxi, and a steering wheel to use with it and my other games (i can't afford or wait for the force feedback one).
Hopefully, it will come out on Fri, if SR have them in stock, the other main shops should.
I would have bought the game form SR, but I JUST CAN'T WAIT.

Who invented thursday anyway, can't we just jump straight to Friday.

(P.S, i'm sure all of you REALLY needed to know this useless information, are you happy now you have finished WASTING YOUR TIME READING THIS???)

Crazy Taxi is a classic game. I got my copy when i bought my DC. Ok, so it may not be as long lasting as games like the FF series, or Zelda or whatever, but its FUN. Isn't that what games are all about?

It may not be a game you sit down and play for 6 hours solid, like some, it's the sort of game you play for half an hour before you go out.

but when you do play it, you enjoy it, simple as that.

Still no sign of a June 1st release on the UKPS2 page. It isn`t on the next to be released table.

The week after perhaps? I don`t mind if it gets delayed until June 8th, as I don`t get home `till the 9th!

Iam not getting it for PS2 as I have the DC version. There isnt any extra things for the PS2 version so if you own or have played the game then I would'nt buy it as there is no difference. But for PS2 owners who havent played the game then it could be a great purchase. Its not long, its repetitive but its addictive and as I have said a few times before FUN.

As far as I know, there aren't any drastic improvements over the Dreamcast version apart from the graphics.
For PS2 owners who haven't played the game, this is a must buy, as it is a good and (as Adrian said several times) fun.
If you've got the Dreamcast version, or have had or played the Dreamcast, this really is no difference and probably isn't worth buying.

Its not a 2 year old game as it cam out 27th Jan 2000 in Japan which means its not even 18 months old.
The point to Crazy Taxi is fun. I have had the DC version since release date. I normally like games that take a good few hours to complete like Resident Evil or long games like the Final Fantasy series. I think Crazy Taxi is fun. There is no point but its fun, its what Sega do best. Yes it may be reptitive but its fun. Racing around the streets trying to get to the destination, flying over cars and buildings. There are the extra Crazy Box missions and the secret vehicle. I think that Crazy Taxi is a great game and is worth a look. I cant wait for Crazy Taxi 2 to appear on my DC.
