"Crazy? Yes, yes I am! oh, you meant the game..okay.."

Hey, there! You played the original right? Then, you must play this! So, lets get it on!

Story:
Did you really expect this game to have a story line? You did? Too bad, it doesn't! You basically pick up customers and once they are buckled up, drive like a maniac! These are not your average customers though! Instead of throwing up in the back seat while you drive at 90mph, they will tip you! Drive between two cars, they tip you! Hell, leap ogf a building with the games new Crazy Jump, they tip you! So, let's meet the family...

Characters:
There are four new characters in this game. They are Slash, Iceman, Cinnamon and Hot D, a 78 year old. Each taxi handles the same, so just pick whichever you want and drive, baby, drive!

Gameplay:
As you probably guessed by the name, you drive a Taxi and pick up customers. So, why not just be a cabbie in real life? Do you know any cabbies who go 90mph on a busy street? No? Thought so. Here you get to the do what you like, when you like!

City:
The game is based in New York. You can choose between Around Apple, a huge city waitng to be torn up crazy style or Small Apple, where narrow streets means instant death and destruction to all on the road except you of course!
You can choose to play by normal rules,where picking and dropping off customers givesextra time on the clock, or you can choose to have a 3, 5 or 10 minute session where you have to pick up as many customers possible to earn cash! Did I mention driving like a maniac is essential in this game?

You can choose Crazy Pyramid, which is a group of mini games. You start off with 5, andwhen you complete them, more open up.
You can also choose to record yourself driving and watch a replay of it!
Pretty cool!

This game is easy to play, but also easy to put down. Y'see, after a while, it gets borign. However, in a few days, you will want to play it again!
