They just taken the endless runner style gameplay and given it a [insert any known IP you own here, it doesn't really matter anyway] spin.
This game isn't replacing a potential sequel. It's this or nothing.
And I'll take something over nothing 100% of the time.
This is clearly a lesser experience made to extort money out of you, all while tarnishing the name of a great franchise. Mobile is just death for games, IMO.And enter all the bitching about it being a mobile game. I honestly don't get all the mobile hate here.
Usually I would be annoyed about another classic franchise being farted out as F2P mobile garbage.
But Crazy Taxi was always terrible.
I guess it's vaguely possible this does really well and gives Sega enough confidence in the IP to do a proper console outing.This game isn't replacing a potential sequel. It's this or nothing.

Mobile.. oh god.
Next it will be Jet Set Free to Play.

It will even feature licensed punk music PLUS the ability to import songs and create your own crazy soundtrack.
City Rush will be free to play, with both a soft and hard currency for players to earn through gameplay or purchase. The money you earn from completing missions and performing stunts can be spent on new taxis, car upgrades, and cosmetic features. The upgrades will improve your car’s engine, body, power, tires, and provide other bonuses. And the cosmetic features let you add all kinds of paint jobs and decals (not to mention physical decorations like bull horns) to your ride. Dare we hope for Sonic decals?
NeoSEGA doesn't deserve SEGA's IP.

Yeah, how dare they make great mobile sequels for people who like playing mobile games.
'More strictly defined' doesn't mean 'better.' Would a GTA game where you're funneled down a hallway for 2 minutes, given a ranking, and kicked back to the stage select menu be a better game structure?Quite the opposite. City Rush looks to have a better game structure than the original.
Generally, one should probably not throw around the label of a game as "great" until, I dunno, the game is actually available, maybe? Seems like a good bar minimum if you want to not look like an utter loon about the opinion.Yeah, how dare they make great mobile sequels for people who like playing mobile games.
