I asked a guy at EB how it looked and he said it's just like the DC version,
only with jaggies.

I've been playing it over a year.....

The funny thing is you payed $700 AUS for the PS2 system and $100 AUS for
the game, just to play (an inferior version of) Crazy Taxi.

I paid less than half of that for my system and the game.

Nope, the movie, upon which the game is based.

Well, that sucks. You're finally getting Crazy Taxi 1,
when Crazy Taxi 2 comes out tomorrow (May 30). Hehehe.
Woohoo! Crazy Taxi 2!!!

I just have one word for DC users: - GT3

So you can shove your Crazy Taxi 1 & 2 (kids games) up you know where.

Is it just me, or does nobody notice "jaggies" on Dreamcast games...

Because they're barely there. PS2's jaggies should be called "blockies".
It's blatant and low-res.

What?? You don't have Shenmue, Jet Grind Radio Phantasy Star Online, or
online Quake 3 on your system?? Huh?? Yes, I agree that GT3 looks
awesome...but it is VERY obvious that DC has a FAAAARRR stronger library and
I think when PS2 finally dies in a few yrs...DC will still have the better
library :)

Happy gaming :)

What's got me stumped is why you're all paying lame arse driving games in
the first place when you could be playing Quake III :)

D. (Don't bother flaming cos I don't care. Yes Dreamcast has better
graphics. But it's a dead format, shut up and cope with it.)
