God. What a question, my answer might not be the norm. I remember I played it once as a little kid in the arcades and I was instantly hooked on it. Like autistically so. I remember searching non stop around the internet for toys and or merch of this game, desperately. I would also scour every single arcade I went to in search of this game, and if I found it, played the fuck out of it. THEN, I learned there was a GameCube and Gameboy port of it and the autism levels shot up to dangerous levels. I needed a GameCube and I needed it now. In my begging of my parents if I could potentially acquire a GameCube for Christmas with "the taxi game" I accidentally discovered crazy taxi, which is one of my all time favorite games. That's another story though. I also ended up with the gameboy port, which is probably long gone for me now, and realized back as a little kid that this wasn't the definitive way to play it . Anyway, I finally got the GameCube, finally got the home port and PLAYED RHE FUCK out of it. Then like a year later I sold the GameCube for a wii. The end. Last time I played this game was like 2 or 3 years ago? I worked at a truck stop restaurant, and they had one of the cabinets right next to the restaurant. It was still an enjoyable ride, and I do have my GameCube port somewhere. I'll have to give it another whirl again.
In terms of gameplay, it's a point to point racer, with up to I believe one other cab linked for competitive play. Make it from the start to the end quickest by taking shortcuts and using power ups to destroy the city around you. The levels were filled to the brim with set pieces, props, pedestrians, cars. I believe the devs made another arcade game I rarely see talked about called Tokyo cop or something like that. Another car game. Thanks for reading my blog.
