Thank you Smii7y for introducing me to this EPIC Game! LOVE IT! An epic game!

Easily 9/10 Hilarious Sticking stars!

This would have to be an On-Par game. :)
Ok ok, it's an Eagle of a time. :))
Birdie!!!
Wait. Nope, that's a Falcon...
Jokes aside no question it's a great game, straight forward controls, and a great multiplayer game! Just ask LordMinion777 if you don't believe me! Shout out to him and his group! ^^
Enjoy!
9/10

The smoke from the skidding tires from the 12 chain drift you pulled off, the greatest 10 second drive to get speedy ever, the fact you can squeeze out $250 to go barely a quarter mile for church...

Crazy Taxi is one game I currently own on PS2 and seeing this game, I wanted to jump on it nearly immediately. Being $8 though, I held off until a friend of mine saw the sale and said; "Why not? You earned it." Being crazy shocked I played it that very weekend to a surprise of a few points I want to make.
1) You should at the very least use a controller. Honestly, it's nearly mandatory so hold off until you get the right equipment.
2) I WANTED SO BADLY to give this game to most chances to prove it was the same as the PS2 Version. Though rough, my goodness the driving (After you get used to it) is indeed like that system version.
3) Get ready for some crazy nostalgia practicing those Crazy Boxes, because man it's INSANELY fun! Just like the ystem nearly 15 years ago, it's just as fun!

I got Crazy Taxi as a Christmas Present WITH my Playstation 2 so long agon when it was new. Unboxing the thing, we all had the greatest times of our lives! It was sheer madness and laughs for the rest of the year and on and still I feel that way about it playing just for nostagic kicks and giggles. This game makes some of those memories come back to life and I'm so happy with how they kept the maps. The downsides however is why this game can't be very heavily considered at $8...
1) The controls themselves isn't bad persay, but at the very least you could use a few hours to get used to it. How to turbo yourself is just straight odd. Hit the B Button then RT to accel (I have X-Box 360 controller so it might be different for you guys.) is NOT the way I'd have put it. And to top it off, you can NOT change the controls. At least so far I can't.
2) The passengers and gabbies themselves have had their voices changed so it's not technically the same. Even when you go to oh say "Pizza Hut" or "KFC" it's definately changed. However! There is a mod that you can use if you go into Crazy Taxi guides to change it but at the same time, it probably should have kept original, though I know why they couldn't.
3) The music is all different and I'm sorry but that right there is JACKED THE FLIP UP! HOW!? HOW, and I repeat, HOW IS THAT CONSCIOUSLY ALLOWED!? That right there is a main reason so many find this game bothersome, HOWEVER! As previously said in the second con, There is help to get it back, though at your own risk to do so. Personally, get the soundtrack on loop on youtube or on another site, put the music to a low, and jam to that. I know it's not going to be the same but it'll be close enough for nostalgic sakes.
Overview:
This game is a HOOT AND A HALF! Though it has some issues, yes it's still Crazy Taxi. The gameplay is a near 10/10 forming right up to 9.5 if you have time to perfect it. The nostogic factor is a solid 8.3 out of 10 for lack of music. The training and overview of hints is a solid 10 out of 10 as is Crazy Box and the levels and styling is still a perfect 10/10. Those being said however, I can't be giving this game a 10...

Sad as it is, the music and taken out original styles of cabbies and passengers gut this game down to a solid 8.1 when factoring a slightly overpriced tag of purchase.

HOWEVER!!!!!

Take into account this game goes on sales a bit less than often, capitolize on half off or even 80% off deals and keep that eye out for the magically low $1.30 tag. When it's that price, this game jumps immediately to a 10 our of 10 for one simple reason...
IT'S TOO GOOD NOT TO GET FOR THAT CHEAP! $8 might be too much for some but if you get this game and can tinker to get it just like the PS2 version, this game is no question a Game of the Decade, Century, or CRAZY Game of the year. So please heavily consider getting it before you jump right in and buy it outright. you won't be sorry, but you might want to caustiously wait.

Writing this review for me is a bit squewed since I own the XBox version of DOA 1 and DOA 2 so please bare with me.
In the first 3.5 hours of playing this game, I have to say while it's not perfect this game no question has to be recommended.

In all honesty, when using my monitor or HD TV plug in to see, the game just looks epic! Yes, it is a bit slow now and then...OK A LOT Slow now and then, but it picks back up soon after. Honestly, if you have the "I NEED THIS TO WORK NOW!!!!!" personality, you probably might pop a vein or two...Or three...Or all of them in your head. (Now that might just be my computer as it's not the best in the world)

Some VERY KEY Notes:
If you only get the free version, you only can play as 4 characters, (Kasumi, Ayane, Hayate, and Ryu Hyabusa) Now for some, this is a massive issue as you want some variety and I don't blame you. But shelling out $15 for the story campaign and unlocking everyone in the game is not cheap.
Which leaves me to the negatives...DLC...
WHY THE HECK IS ALL TOGETHER THE GAME $1700!?!?!?!??!?!?! THAT'S REDICULOUS AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT!!!

Soo...Yeah...There's that one tiny downside to this game....Any others? Yeah...
The amount of "exposure" that is in this game is a bit excessive. And it gets worse with "Exposure" as you unlock some new outfits. Now obviosuly not all of them are bad and in fact there are several very cool ones! But on the other hand, it gets really excessive really fast...

Another negative seems to be a ping/FPS issue. A few friends saw me playing andsaid; "That's really slow" So yeah...But hey, video games aren't alway perfect.

Now back to the pros:
Though there are only 4 characters to start with, if you're new or returning to a fan favorite fighting game series and you want to train, It's fantastic! No joke it's so detailed and the command training even helps you learn the combos! Or if that's not your cup of tea and just want to mess about button mashing, just freestyle training works so well! It really is so nice to have a proper training stage you can go all out and not get penalized!

Another pro is the gaming itself. If you have no issues with FPS or anything like that, Arcade mode and Tag modes are just so nice! Mix together a duo or go solo, there's tricks and some decently hard CPU even on normal to push yourself. Crank it up and GOOD LUCK! #ProGamer!

Any other pros? Yep!
IT'S FREE!!!!!!!!
Though the DLC is worth it, for me I'm not spending anything. But if you're like me and want to save your money, it's still a great game I would recommend.
A solid 7.8/10 for me.

P.S. Even in 2019, even with not much in Online, it's still fun, so it can stand a test of time.

Honestly, for being a free game it is a ton of fun! You start by choosing between Yugi or Seto and really that is the only thing I am spoiling.

It's all around so much fun, but the fact you have to dip into you steam wallet to get more card booster packs seems a bit not cool. Still, collecting the gems to use is a far better way so trust me, be patient and go with gems and not shrink your wallet. (You earn gems by dueling in game)

The tutorials are super easy and very simple. If you've never played Yu-Gi-Oh, it will definately give you a basic breakdown on the game and its rules.

Being free, I was way blown away from my expectations. I thought it'd be a bit glitchy and on the cheaper side, but it's thankfully not! It's very polished for being a Steam game and honestly, I can't wait to play it for a long time. Being such a fan of this iconic anime/cartoon growing up, I've always wanted to play with some friends but never really could. Even at the height of its popularity I could never enter a tournament, but this game makes you live that dream!

Sure, the dialogue gets a bit old and the cringe factor on the timing of Yugi saying "I win!" is enough to which you've sucked on a lemon for an hour, but who cares!? This game is fun, an amazing free game that relives your childhood, and a huge tournament just waiting to happen! Get some friends and go crazy!

The only cons I would have to say is (Once again) the dialogue getting a bit old quickly and the fact you can't insert the card verification number to get your own deck. However...Being a game that needs some sales using cards, I can understand why that wouldn't be the best idea.

But really that's all I can say that's wrong with the game! Watching my brother play and my short time playing, it looks so good, the first few stages is pretty easy, and it just takes you back to those saturday mornings watching Yu-Gi-Oh as a kid waiting for your chance to beat Pegasus in the Shadow Realm. (No? Just me? Huh...)

I have to be honest and say I want to give this game 10/10, but from a professional opinion, it would be a 9.5/10. Being free, this is a MUST get if you love the franchise, having fun with friends, tourament style card games, or any of the cards IRL and want to play a simple duel. Honestly, I couldn't have been blown away more, which is why I narrowly gave this Rookie Game of the Year 2017 just over Sonic Forces and Sword Art Online. It's just that good.

To this day it's one of my top three games I play everyday, and it's a very cared for game by Konami. Well and easily recommended

I Give this game 4 stars out of 5. This game is a really fun and entertaining game. I want to give this game five stars but the reason i knocked a star down is because of some of the other gamers. IT's the best and worst part of this game. If you have great friends, you will not have a more fun experience. However if you are stuck with some really terrible, fowl-mouthed, or otherwise annoying teammates, you just want to exit the game after a few rounds, which you can't do without taking a steep penalty in competitive. If you play Casual and want to leave, there is no penalty. The Hackers and cheaters are also the main reason this game can't be awarded 5 stars.

When you are facing a hacker, and it's a competitive match, you cannot stand it. You want to trash your team/computer and be done with it. But the experience is overall very enjoyable. Making friends is all part of gaming...that and having the time of your life and you definately have both highs and lows with this game.

Summary: If you love Call of Duty, Halo anything, or shooter games...you might want to demo or get this game. IT is a great game.
