What is it about classic game (and film and TV) series that make them so pervasive?

Crazy Taxi looks good, but its the punk soundtrack that made it so addictive.

If they rebooted both franchises into a single title, then things would be interesting.

My dude, you should write these ideas down and put them in your safe instead of posting them on public forums

My gift to humanity.

It can’t be worse than an open world live service crazy taxi game.

Yup. Meanwhile I’m just over here wondering how they’re going to completely ruin jet set radio rebooted.

Crazy Shinobi Taxi, where you have drive a taxi to take passengers to their destinations, all while doing impossible acrobatic stunts that fire shurikens and kunais at nearby enemy ninja taxi drivers

I’ll totally play a multiplayer Crazy Taxi, but not if it’s a game as a service and you also have to buy the game.

Also interesting they mention the “successor to the Switch” as the target system.

If there isn’t a successor by 2027 there never will be.

Is this the same Crazy Taxi that it leaked would be a live service?

Damn, I was hoping it would be more like Shinobi PS2.
