In this episode, we take a look at the GBA versions of Crazy Taxi and the game that so blatantly ripped it off, that they got sued for making it; The Simpsons Road Rage. Often just pushed aside as a shameless copycat and inferior to the original Crazy Taxi, how does this story play out on Gameboy Advance? Quite differently, actually! While the developers behind Crazy Taxi were very ambitious, crafting a full 3D world as faithfully to the original as they possibly could, the team behind Road Rage took the game in their own, unique, built for the GBA direction. Today, we compare the two of them! Talk about the good, the bad and the surprising, in this episode of Port Patrol!
As always, a massive thank you to LordRegretti for the incredible art featured throughout the video!

Happy Trans Day of Visibility everyone! 🏳‍⚧ I didn't purposely set out to release this video to line up with it, but a nice surprise none the less :) Feeling very visible rn. Anyway, hope you all enjoyed the video!!

@Chlocean Год назад

Omg thanks for the reminder!! Happy TVD! I feel surprisingly more visible today so make sure to wear queer camo if you need to be stealthy at all.

Excellent video Lexx. The one thing I'd say Simpsons Road Rage has over Crazy Taxi on consoles is the 2 player head to head mode. A tag game where you steal the passenger from one another's car by ramming them, and getting it to the destination before they can touch you again, was pure chaotic fun!

@LEXXPortPatrol Год назад

Thanks Larry! That’s awesome, I saw the mode on the menu but didn’t try it out - That sounds really fun!

@maraganger Год назад

unironically made me want to pick up Road Rage's two versions, take that as you will lmaO

@LEXXPortPatrol Год назад

omg do it!!! They’re both surprisingly fun!!

@chedhead3278 Год назад

Cheers Lexx, always a pleasure when you upload. By gods, GBA Crazy Taxi is eye watering to watch. Respect to the devs for trying.

Ahhh I'm glad you liked it!! A pleasure, apart from having to look at Crazy Taxi :P

Crazy Taxi for the GBA looks better on an emulator with shaders installed.

@VexAcer Год назад

20:56 When it comes to "Mode-7-like visuals with slopes" there's also at least two other games that come to my mind (both also being on the GBA). Road Trip: Shifting Gears which used it a bit more subtly for hills or bumps in the road. And then Motoracer Advance which is basically an extreme interpretation of it. Ramping off of huge jumps with roads that stretch all the way to the horizon. Honestly one of the best examples of that kind of effect and also it's generally a very overlooked GBA racer.

@LEXXPortPatrol Год назад

Ooooh I’ll definitely have to check these out, Ty!

@maesejesus Год назад

Great video, I couldn't resist laughing out loud at that "Ape Escape" picture. Perfect choice. Also, I never put interest in the GBA version of Road Rage, but certainly looks worth of a try, I'll give it a chance. Take care!

I’m hoping it’s a reference that in 2 years time no one will understand anymore :’)

@forkboy3309 4 месяца назад

mat selman and tim long (who both worked on the simpsons) wrote the dialogue for road rage. i'm guessing they were able to get away with a lot more in a video game than on tv, where they're constrained by limitations set by advertisers and the fcc.

@DmitriyK12 Месяц назад

Smashing Drive and GTA Advance also featured taxi side missions & both were released on the Nintendo Gameboy Advance; no offense, but the Simpsons Road Rage for the GBA did not steal or rip off Crazy Taxi: Catch a Ride...it mearly paid an homage to it.

The killswitch gba game was insanely ambitious and i think not enough people talk about how nuts it is on how much movement you get for a gba game doing a third person shooter. It had cover fire mechanics. Grenade aiming and blind fire mechanics...

@LEXXPortPatrol Год назад

Yesss Kill.Switch is amazing! I was making a video on it last year but dropped it halfway through, might be worth coming back to!

@blakegriplingph Год назад

Imagine if Sega contracted Raylight to adapt Crazy Taxi instead. Or Velez and Dubail for that matter. And licenced music has always been an arse to deal with, and knowing Sega's track record with licences...

@jknifgijdfui Год назад

Actually in the us version of the game those confusing arrow things you didnt understand were in the american version circles saying things such as near and arrives basically saying how far away you are from the destination if ur wondering the only other differences between the europe and us versions are you get to select a language in the europe version and theres a small intro thats about it

Imagine Jet Set/Grind Radio with Crazy Taxi GBA's perspective...God forbid the gray and/or the framerate. No, the already existing GBA version doesn't count, I'm talking behind-the-view style 3rd person. God it'd be so janky. But if the GAX sound-engine was involved? Hell yeah, tolerable musics!

Simpsons Road Rage was one of the games I had on loop back in the day. Loved it, even if it was just a blatant ripoff

@barrelchestproductions Год назад

Might I add, if you toggle the drive/reverse button and kind of spam it back and forth you can boost your speed by a significant amount. It actually is pretty fast paced once you start spamming the drive/reverse button along with the acceleration button and interspersing it with braking on occasion.

@LEXXPortPatrol Год назад

Oooh I figured out you could do it taking off but didn’t know you could keep it going like that!!

@DmitriyK12 4 дня назад

@@LEXXPortPatrol It is called crazy dash; there are other ones like crazy drift, crazy hop (in later Crazy Taxi titles), crazy limit or something like that, I don't remember them all but they do aid you greatly. 😊

I think I was pretty good at Road Rage GBA as a kid. I know I played it a lot and had a bunch of passwords wrote down, so maybe?

Can you check out the port of star wars battlefront 2 for the psp? It isn't the best versión of the game, but it always seem curious to me how ravage entertaiment ported it to a console that was very recent and a game that had so many actions for psp's buttons capability

Tomb Raider: Legend for GBA also has loading screens, and it's a completely 2D game from what I've seen, not sure what's up with that.

I think the problem of being able to basically pick up every passenger in the map in catch a ride is an issue or feature with nirmal crazy taxi ive seen 4 and 5 hour runs of crazy taxi 3 where they pick up and drop off like every passenger and its equal parts insane and stupid
