 IGN: Crazy Taxi 2 Review
The premise in Crazy Taxi is simple: pick up a passenger, take them to their destination, and drive as fast and as recklessly as you can.
Hitmaker's attempt to make Crazy Taxi even better was to keep it basic: keep the same great driving elements, searing frame rate, and gameplay mechanics and add things that would spice it up a lot more.
As for Crazy Pyramid, all the mini-games are just incredible and I wonder how Hitmaker thought of some of them; you really have to see the Crazy Golf mini-game to really appreciate the great sense of style and humor of Hitmaker.

  Sega's Crazy Taxi 2 Dreamcast Game Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In the original Crazy Taxi, this insanity was dolled out through one fare at a time, but with number two, players will find the variety of fares have grown, with the occasional pick-up involving up to four passengers, each asking to be dropped off at a separate location (and none of them conveniently close-by).
This is Crazy Taxi in New York, a change of scenery from the original's romp in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
I like Crazy Taxi 2 a lot, but it's an arcade game on a home system and because of that it can be a little repetitive and short, which is something I would have liked to have seen the designers take into consideration and fixed.

 Crazy Taxi 2 Review for Dreamcast - Gaming Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The original Crazy Taxi was one of the more refreshing and original games to hit the most recent generation of consoles in quite some time.
The NYC in Crazy Taxi is pretty darn close to eth real thing, although a lot of the more famous locations have been replaced with much more generic replicas or just eliminated completely.
Multiple passengers are always picked up in a group of 2, 3 or 4, and you do not receive a dime unless you successfully drop off each at their own location.

The name is simple but to the point: it's taxi driving but with a crazy twist, seeing as you don't have to follow the rules of the road (and in later games, the rules of gravity) to get your customer to their predetermined destination.
Graphic State would be commissioned from THQ to make their own rendition of the Crazy Taxi series for the Gameboy Advance, and it's a bit on the spotty side.
What is so great about the Crazy Taxi games is that it gives you an arsenal of moves to perform to be able to bring your customers to their destination in a hurry.

For those of you who missed the joys of the original Crazy Taxi, the game is about running a taxi service, making money, and doing crazy things all over the city.
One of the key features in Crazy Taxi 1 was the incredible music soundtrack done by The Offspring and Bad Religion, two of my favorite bands.
Crazy Taxi 2 kept The Offspring as a band, but replaced Bad Religion with Masters of Mayhem, a change I feel hurt the overall musical appeal of the game.

 Crazy Taxi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crazy Taxi was first released in arcades in 1999 and was ported to the Dreamcast in 2000.
Along the way, money can be earned (the game is primarily a score attack title) by performing outrageous stunts such as the "Crazy Through" (near-misses with other vehicles; both risk and reward are higher when driving against the flow of traffic) and "Crazy Drift" (extended, barely-controlled skidding).
Between all three versions of Crazy Taxi (Crazy Taxi, Crazy Taxi 2 and Crazy Taxi 3), there are well in excess of 100 trackable records to monitor by Twin Galaxies.

 Crazy Taxi 2 (drm: 2001): Reviews
Crazy Taxi 2 may have new gameplay mechanics, new cities, and new mini-games than Crazy Taxi but that doesn't make it better than the original.
The new courses are great, and the addition of the Crazy Hop does wonders in terms of opening up the gameplay.
The best addition is definitely the new multi-passenger fares you can pick up, adding a new, and quite difficult challenge to your taxi driving skills as you try to beat the timer while delivering up to four passengers to different locales.

Reprising their role as provider of the Crazy Taxi soundtrack is the band Offspring.
