10 Video Games That Pushed Consoles To The Limit
10. Crazy Taxi - Game Boy Advance
Crazy Taxi was one of the best games Sega ever produced. A fast-paced 3D driving game about getting your passenger to their destination with as much mayhem and carnage as you can possibly stack up along the way.
Only a dedicated arcade machine could truly capture how absolutely insane this game could be, with home console releases doing their best to keep up.
So naturally, they put it on the Game Boy Advance.
About half of this list is going to be made up of the bad side of games taking their systems to the limit, and Crazy Taxi is a perfect first example. The entire game is crammed and crunched until it fits on a handheld, ruining more or less the entire experience.
While undoubtedly impressive that they managed to get anything resembling the original game onto the Advance, it doesn't save this version of Crazy Taxi from being one of the most perplexing ports in gaming history. A great example of a dev team being all about "coulda", not "shoulda".
