reading contemporary reviews of crazy taxi 3 for a potential thinkpiece and the eurogamer article on it says that the "throwaway taxi missions" in grand theft 3 and vice city does the raw concept of "taxi game" better than crazy taxi, and as someone that has 100%'d vice city several times
whaaaaat? are you serious? did PAL get something completely different? is having a gun (that is detrimental to shoot because it can give you a wanted level) and a choice of radio really worth choosing one of the worst side-diversions in early GTA over crazy taxi?
