Better not turn out to be a mobile game.
Or is that known already?

And yeah I know it's early footage, but the mechanics on display are not confidence inspiring.

 

[Tomi]

Meh

 

[Mownoc]

Hopefully it turns out good. The rumours were they're releasing a remake of Crazy Taxi first before this GAAS version.

Not going to judge it on the footage considering this footage could be 4+ years before release.

 

[cireza]

Remove all the other players and it might be decent fun.

 

[Hookshot]

No, no, no, no, no

[Shubh_C63]

That's crazy

 

[Darsxx82]

I hope it is early early early super-early footage

 

[Diddy X]

 

[PanzerCute]

Its pre alpha footage from 2/3 years ago lol, why are you all complaining?

 

[Mownoc]

I hope it is early early early super-early footage

Rumor - Midori: Crazy Taxi Remake slated for 2027; GaaS versions of Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi also in the works; Golden Axe was originally planned for 2023

Text version in case the tweets get deleted: I want to make sure there is no confusion with what I am saying before. It is correct information that Sega is developing full remakes of Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio in Unreal Engine 5 with most of the original staff. These titles would release...

The Crazy Taxi Remake supposedly isn't coming until 2027. If accurate this footage could be five years before release lol.

Without the licensed music and brands the original game is shit btw.

 

[Mownoc]

Horizon Zero Dawn is garbage!

 

[Diddy X]

Horizon Zero Dawn is garbage!

LOL, Guerrilla Games went from Killzone 2 to this. What a shame.

 

[Panajev2001a]

Horizon Zero Dawn is garbage!

The flaming streaks the cars give out should just be removed, the problem is not the quality lol.

 

[Spukc]

No ray tracing
No buy

Should make a Crazy Taxi game that takes place in The Fifth Element.

On a serious note.

If I were to make a Crazy Taxi game then I'd have every NPC passenger be voiced by a major global celebrity and then I'd give them carte blanche to say whatever the hell they want during their ride. Inspired by Die Hard: With a Vengeance.

 

[Sooner]

Every time a game leaks footage in early/mid production, everyone freaks out and says it looks terrible.

 

[Hudo]

Holy shit, this is a great idea.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

No, no, no, no, no

 

[Miles708]

They have a lot of time to make it better that's for sure

 

[Hookshot]

Thank you, It had to be done.

The game itself isn't looking so bad, the mini games were often janky but having things like balloons to pop and piles of boxes to try to knock down is a sensible idea and having Taxis as wildly different as an F1 car wasn't what I expected but also makes sense when people will be competing against each other at the same time.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Looks absolutely retarded. I like it. Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled, I wanna play that.

 

[Deft Beck]

Looks nothing like Crazy Taxi. It's basically Onrush but with a taxi theme.

 

[64bitmodels]

I still don't see the issue with the multiplayer angle. Crazy taxi is the type of game that lends itself pretty well to multiplayer. Who can get the most fares and highest score?

The F1 car looks  really goofy though

 

[Portugeezer]

Looks worse than Wolverine.

 

[GermanZepp]

Fuck all the haters

[King Dazzar]

OG was great, but was always just a quick go here and there game. Looks a bit meh tbh.

 

[Fermbiz]

 

[SportsFan581]

Have to let them get it done. Not sure what I think about the guide being this direct.

LOL at the fare that sits/stands on the back of a formula racer spoiler.

 

[DussyPestroyer]

This is going to bomb like hyenas, who asked for crazy taxi lol. Dreadful absolutely dreadful

 

[Shifty1897]

Not sure how to feel about it. On one hand, Crazy Taxi is already great, and this footage is two years old, so a lot could have improved since this was recorded. On the other hand, it just looks like modern crazy taxi. I'm not seeing anything AAAA "Super Game" about it.

 

[nikos]

Can’t wait for this!

 

[fart town usa]

Footage from 2022, posted in 2024.

Some of you need to relax.

 

[RoboFu]

Look like a crazy taxi game. Not sure why they want to lead with that but it's probably easiest to make.

I'll give you props for this one. Awesome idea.

 

[Ishma3L]

Looks like Crazy Taxi.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Yikes.

 

[Danknugz]

it looks like a game someone made following unity tutorials

 

[splattered]

I know this is early footage but yeah looks like a mobile game... hopefully it continues to improve.

 

[Drew1440]

Looks very busy onscreen, hopefully they will tone down the effects.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Looks exactly like a Crazy Taxi game.

This franchise was always in a rough spot. It was novel at the time because iit was one of the first open world driving games...but we've progressed a looooooong way since then.

 

[ahtlas7]

Lol F1 taxi
I hope it’s fun!

 

[Icymanipulator]

Crazy Taxi: Burnout

I’m actually OK with this footage, but the F1 had me laughing, why? lol I actually follow F1 and love the open wheel style of car, but it looks so weird with someone sitting on the tail

Goddamn I fucking loved that movie. I feel old. =(
