My Thoughts On The Game
I have never really been a fan of games involving cars. Ordinarily, I can not stand them because my co-ordination is beyond awful and I crash into everything in sight. If it were not for this game, I would probably hate them altogether! Crazy Taxi is one of the funniest and most enjoyable games that I have ever played and because of that it is different. I certainly would not say it is my usual type because I am more into "point and click" style adventure games. Such as The Curse Of Monkeys Island and Discworld or other games of a similar type (Dreamfall - The Longest Journey for example) I also loved Mario Galaxy but these games are a world away from Crazy Taxi. So, I sometimes find myself wondering how this game found its way into my list of favourites but tonight I was reminded why. I had been ...
Advantages: Very high paced, Some good Humour, Music and A lot of the acting is very good. Disadvantages: Some "Cheesy" bits and one actor in particular is pretty poor.

Taxi is a hilarious action film directed by Tim Story, set in and around New York city in America, brought to us by 20th Century Fox. Taxi is an American re-make of the original French "Taxi" created by Luc-Besonn, which was a major hit across France. The film has a 15 rating, the box saying it had Moderate language and Sex references, I noticed a lot of the mild language but that was really it. Queen Latifa plays Belle, New York's fastest cab driver, in the film and is joined by Jimmy Fallon playing Andy Washburn, a discredited, car-less cop. Jenifer Esposito also appears in the film as Andy Washburn's Lieutenant and ex-girlfriend. The Brazilian Super Model, Gisele Bündchen appears as the ringleader of the female bank robbers and twice Oscar nominated Ann-Margret plays as Washburn's Mum ...

Advantages: Great fun, easy to play. Disadvantages: No real aims or missions to complete.
I purchased the platinum version of this game as part of a 3 for £20 offer which was at my local Game store.
I had played this game before but not for quite a few years and I brought back great memories of nostalgia and playing against my friends to see who was the best taxi driver.
The game is just for one player which means that you're going to have to take it in turns if you want to have mini competitions which my fiance and I have been doing quite a lot lately as it's our main means of entertainment when we are out my house (mainly because the xbox 360 is always left in his bedroom as it's his pride and joy!)
The aim of the game is to play against the clock to drive passengers to their destination, you earn tips for weaving past cars and for making a speedy drop off.
The main thing I disliked about the game was the gameplay ...

Album Notes
Sly & Robbie: Sly Dunbar (drums); Robbie Shakespeare (bass). Recorded in Kingston, Jamaica. Sly Dunbar (drums) and Robbie Shakespear (bass) have turned up on more reggae recordings than probably anyone else. They've also recorded with Bob Dylan, Gwen Guthrie, Bill Laswell/Material, and Herbie Hancock, among others. As a rhythm team, they balance certainty and precision with spirit and adaptability, which makes them virtually unbeatable. This collection of reggae songs--co-credited to the Channel One All-Stars--features tracks Sly & Robbie produced, arranged, or performed on for such artists as Dennis Brown, Junior Delgado, and Black Uhuru. Some tracks are instrumental, while others feature are uncredited vocals. The songs are varied: "Taxi Connection" is an electronic drum-driven, horn-accented bobbing-and-weaving instrumental; "Those Tricks" is a soulful lover's-rock ballad; and "Pure & True" is a slinky yet bright instrumental with some wonderfully rich, bluesy saxophone work. Fans of modern reggae (Sly & Robbie use a lot of electronically generated percussion) will find this TAXI worth riding.
