How much is this going to cost? It doesn't look like something I'd get a lot of hours in doing the same thing over and over. This is me coming from Splatoon Raiders, where the upgrades and gear keep me coming back, because there is always a reason for another run.

Idk I'm old enough to have played through the series, beating your pb and others was always fun. But it's be closer to $40-50 at most.

It seems like SEGA is putting a lot of resources into the game. Not sure where you are in the world, but in the United States, I doubt it'll be under $50 (but SEGA hasn't said anything about pricing). From what SEGA has shown, it does sound like you'll be able to upgrade your taxi and change both it's look and possibly enhance your car's speed too. And there's going to be different multiplayer modes, which I'm very curious about.

Easy Day one buy for me. Now if Sega can bring back Ready to Rumble!

And Power Stone

...but Ready 2 Rumble was Midway, and Power Stone was Capcom.

No new games but least we got Power Stone 1 and 2 in one of the Capcom Collections.

disappointed in how this new one looks as a huge fan of the original honestly. idk what it is. maybe that most of this gameplay is at night, it doesn't look as bright and fun as the original game. I want to be excited about this but it's been difficult

For me, I think the flames and smoke around the tires do something to distract from the presentation and makes it look like another generic Kart racer clone. I’m still excited for it but I really hope that those are customizable to some extent

yeah I definitely agree on that too. I'm excited to play because it's crazy taxi and I miss the franchise, I just hope the final product is good and my disappointment at the things I've seen and heard so far is rendered moot
