Crazy Taxi Available for Hire Again this November

13 October 2010

Crazy Taxi HD is a re-mastered version of the classic title that first appeared in arcades and on the SEGA Dreamcast back in 1999. Crazy Taxi HD will appear on Xbox LIVE Arcade on 24 November and on the PlayStation Network on 23 November (for America) and 24 November (for Europe and Australia).

Players will be able to hurtle off parking garage roofs and barrel through traffic-packed streets for a low fare of 800 Microsoft points or US$9.99 (±R68).

New features in this remake include high-definition 720p graphics presented in a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, leaderboards and trophy awards, and two game types to experience – Arcade Mode and Original Mode. Classic features making a comeback include sixteen minigames that hone taxi-driving skills, huge San Francisco-style hills for plenty of hang time, and occasional deep-sea exploration opportunities.

“Crazy Taxi is the second installment in our Dreamcast revival, and we hope this release will prove every bit as nostalgic to fans as Sonic Adventure did last month,” said Haruki Satomi, VP of Digital Business at SEGA.
