Man, I am just pumping these các bài viết out today. Must be that sweatshop ambition. I don’t have a lot of arcade games that I am super fond of. Not that I hate them hoặc anything, it’s just that most of my experiences in arcades were playing the original Mortal Kombat, đường phố, street Fighter II and Third Strike, and Thiết Quyền 3. So yeah, most of them were just fighting games. Those joysticks just work so well with fighting games. But one arcade game that caught my interest was one game bởi Sega, known as Crazy Taxi.
Okay, first off, I never actually got the chance to play Crazy Taxi in arcades. I just had the inferior version on 360. And it’s a fun version, but there’s no Offspring hoặc Bad Religion, so it’s inferior. Okay, but seriously, Crazy Taxi is a ton of fun. The game is very simple. bạn gotta drive around clients to their location, usually a pizza, bánh pizza Hut hoặc a KFC, the thực phẩm of America, and get them their fast. The faster bạn move, the thêm time you’ll get. Continue doing this until bạn run of of time and try to rack up the high score. It is a very simple game, but it works so well and it’s a ron of fun. bạn have all these skills bạn can learn that’ll help bạn out in the game, like braking before bạn drive to get thêm speed, drifting, using the ramps, hoặc stopping dead in the vòng tròn in order to get higher points. The slower bạn move, the thêm likely you’re pay will lower. Run out of time and the pedestrians will thêm than likely jump out of the car just to get out of this perpetual yellow hell. bạn got five characters, but my go-to character is Axel, simply cause he looks like Zoro from One Piece and I like to sing the One Piece rap to piss off my friends. The âm nhạc in this game is the typical punk soundtrack, something akin to Tony Hawk games, also a 90s franchise. bạn got classic songs like Way Down the Line bởi The Offspring. Nothing says Crazy Taxi like a song about alcoholism, child abuse, teenage pregnancy, poverty, obesity, and other such things. Give me that existential crisis, Offspring. Every time I play this game, I always tell myself, “No, I gotta go again. I need that Class S license”. This game is like an adrenaline rush. bạn wanna go fast, faster than that other Sega game. Want it, need it, gotta get the S Rank. bạn gotta di chuyển fast, know the environment (Which is pretty damn huge), gotta know the location of the pedestrians, gotta listen to that classic All I Want. It’s so damn addictive and I tình yêu it.
Crazy Taxi is sadly not as loved as it was once, because it’s a classic Sega game, and if it’s not Persona hoặc Sonic, than it can go to hell. It did get some love, like B.D. Joe appearing in Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing, and getting a few sequels that no one talks about. Maybe one ngày we’ll see a return of that lovely Crazy Taxi… hoặc not. Who knows.
