Crazy Taxi Fare Wars preview PSP

Crazy Taxi Fare Wars, due out in September on the PSP, is the latest in the Crazy Taxi series. Once again you find yourself behind the wheel of a cab in New York and San Francisco inspired cities as you vie for the best fares and quickest routes. We've had a hands-on look at the game this month, and found plenty of new features - lots of minigames and a multiplayer option for a start.

For some reason, the Crazy Taxi series has never really had it’s fair dues (Surely, “fare dues”? - Ed ). Perhaps the brand has been diluted by its many reappearances on myriad formats. And its sequels never quite lived up to its original incarnations in the arcade or on the ill-fated Dreamcast. But Crazy Taxi is the very epitome of Sega - bright, breezy and unpretentious fun; blue sky gaming at its finest. And now, with its brash tyresquealing, fare-chasing action enhanced by an all-new multiplayer mode, the forthcoming PSP remix looks to be the best thing to happen to the franchise since the original.
The first thing you notice is just how vibrant the graphics are on the PSP’s screen - perfectly recapturing the original’s dazzlingly bright look. Controls are incredibly simple, with the shoulder buttons used to accelerate and brake, with the circle and X buttons switching between gears. The two San Francisco-set maps of the arcade game and Dreamcast conversion are both available, as are the New York-influenced areas from the sequel.
