This game plays pretty much the same as the arcade/Dreamcast/PS version. It is a very fun, almost addictive game to play. Due to the memory contraints of the GBA cartridge the graphics and music of the other versions didn't make it into the handheld version, but once you get used to the chunky graphics it's not too bad. I think I turned the music off after the third time I played. Otherwise it plays pretty well on the GBA.

lookes like

when i bought this game, i thought it would look better than driver 2 advance and the ps version. it lookes the same!!!! but it is fun to play if you like driving games. 4 stars because i like crazy taxi and missing one star because it is more easier to use it on the SP. Also, its by thq not sega(why?)

tip: in normal rules, get 10,000 dollars or more to unlock the second city.

Portable Crazy Taxi isn't half bad

Pick up a customer, drive to the location, drop off, repeat - all within a certain time limit for each customer. The basis of Crazy Taxi: Catch a Ride is simple but so addicting. If you've played the dreamcast or other version you know what I'm talking about. I love the whole concept of Crazy Taxi and the GBA version conveys it nicely. The sound isn't horrible but it can't compare to Offspring and Bad Religion. My only complaint is the graphics which are choppy, but that issue is ignorable. This a great game for any one looking for a game just to pick up and play anytime.

It's Alright

This game is alright for the GBA but if you didn't like the home console of Crazy Taxi then you will not like this game. It is fun in its own right but its not the best GBA game i own. The graphics in this game are kinda bad but if you get passed that then you can really enjoy this game (isn't it the gameplay that counts anyway). This game includes two cities one which you unlock later and after that there is really not that much to do put pick up people and drop them off. If this sounds boring to you then well you should not consder playing or purcasing this game. It's fun for a casual gamer but not fun for hardcore gamers.

Overall i give this game a 7/10

Great Game!

I actually JUST got this game, and I must say I'm pretty impressed. I didn't know the GBA could process graphics like this! Veru colorful, stylish and fun! Dreamcast fans (or people that can't really afford any of the bigger systems) are gonna be very pleased with this title. The reason why I didn't give it 5 stars? Sometimes the graphics get a little scrambled (especially if there's too much action going on) and the cars are not as fast as they should be. Other than that, great game!

Its ok, but the graphics aren't that good

The main problem of this game is the graphics, compared to other race games like mario kart advance or F-zero advance the graphics of crazy taxi are bad, anyway, it can be played (actually, is like that old game "Star fox" when it came out to snes, that is the kind of graphics this game have), the music is ok, but not so good as the one of Crazy Taxi played in a console (there you have the offpring and similars, here you don't), those are the problems, the good thing is that the idea of the game is simple but adictive, you will be playing it for some time without get bored and if you learn how to make the tricks the game will become more fun.
I gave it only 3 stars, one less because if you compare it to Crazy taxi played on a console this version isn't that good, and another one less because of the bad graphics, but the botton line is that if you don't mind to spend the money you will be quite happy with the game.

GBA's Crazy Taxi

I just bought this game and after playing it this is what I have come up with. Over all this game is pretty good but not perfect.

Most people know the plot to Crazy Taxi but just incase you don't let me explain. You are a taxi driver who picks people up and speeds them off to where they want to go in the shortest time so they will give you more money.

The first thing that I noticed was the turning was a little choppy- not smooth like mario cart but you can learn to get good at it.

The next thing was the graphics. You can't compare GBA graphics to the arcade or to a Gamecube. The GBA isn't nearly as powerful so it will not have as good graphics. Once you realize that you find that the graphics are pretty good. They are not quite as good as they look on the box but are still good for GBA.

Overall this is a simple addicting game that I have found to be pretty good.

Pretty good but could be better

This game is pretty simple. What you do is 1. pick a driver 2. pick a city 3. go drive. The object of this game is to rack up money. The more money you get the better. There is 4 levels 1. normal (you pick up someone and you have x amount of time to deliver them and you repeat till you cna't deliver the passenger to there desired location. 2. 3 minutes 3. 5 minutes and finally 10 minutes. There also is 9 mini games which test your ablity to drive. The graphics are pretty good but the sound is nothing special. So i would recommend this game but it is not great.

The best game ever!
