This is my S-Rank run of the Arcade Mode of Crazy Taxi for the Sega Dreamcast. I uploaded this because I bought a Dreamcast today. I've owned it for only about eight hours, but I can safely say that the Dreamcast is one of the greatest systems ever made.
In that vein, if you ever see a Dreamcast on sale, buy it. You won't regret doing so.
In regards to the game itself, Crazy Taxi is self-explanatory. The player chooses one of four different cab drivers (I use Axel) and picks up fares, earning money by driving in an insane manner and getting to the destination as fast as possible. That's about it. One does not truly understand why Crazy Taxi is so damn fun until he plays it for himself. It's a riot.
Since Crazy Taxi is an arcade game, it's designed to throw you off the cabinet as quickly as possible. It's a game that requires a lot of memorization of the level layout and skill. But at the same time, it's extremely addictive. You just have to have ONE MORE GO until you finally obtain the coveted S-Rank and win the game. There really isn't that much content on this disk. The thing is, it will likely take several hours to truly "beat" the game, mostly because you'll be playing and replaying it until you finally win and you'll have a hell of a lot of fun doing it. It's like gaming crack.
Crazy Taxi is not only one of the best Dreamcast games of all time, but it's also one of best GAMES of all time.
Crazy Taxi is the perfect arcade game. Once you pick up the controller, you're hooked for life.
Whats the difference between arcade and original mode?

@TheJSeb The Arcade Mode is the level from the original arcade game and the Original Mode is a new level that was created specifically for the Sega Dreamcast version of the game.

@legodude4000 There is an S-Rank in MGS? I never knew that.
In Crazy Taxi, the player is scored on a letter scale. The S-Rank is the best license the player can obtain. Sega uses this scoring system for a lot of its games. :D
