The official mag and demo disc. Can't wait to try out Crazy Taxi High Roller.
It says it comes out on 6th Sept in the last issue, but I didn't see it in the shops.
Has anyone got it?

I'm not going to buy the CT3 demo - just going to wait for the full game.
I don't want to ruin that release day excitement :)

Or disappointment. My mates got the demo and says the Night Time Level is small, and the graphics arent any improvment over the DC games. All the reviews i've read have pointed out that it seems like a mere update, that hasnt even used the power of the Xbox, its been getting average marks from even Crazy Taxi fans. I liked the previous 2 on the DC, and was looking forward to this one, but I think i'll save my money.

I think I'll get Crazy Taxi 3 eventually, but theres a number of other games I want a lot more that will take priority before I consider this one.

There should have been a multi-player in the form of: player 1 drops the first customer(s) off, then player 2 drops the second customer(s) off, etc, etc.
But I don't think I'll be disappointed.
The graphics on the DC were fine - in fact they were excellent, perfect for the type of game - and Crazy Taxi is all about fast and furious arcade gameplay and not graphics anyway.
I'm looking at it as: The Best of Crazy Taxi - a kind of Crazy Taxi 2.5 - that'll do for me.
Minimal pop-up is expected with a game which is so fast set in a cityscape, and the slowdown people are mentioning is usually eliminated if you play it in 50hz - it was on the DC.
