I need you to stop what you're doing and watch Games Done Quick Crazy Taxi with a live band.

If you need a video game that can cure you of any ailment, then you absolutely need to check out this Crazy Taxi speedrun.

I think Crazy Taxi is one of the best video games ever made – it's ridiculous, it's loud, it's a game that a lot of people have played because they saw it in the arcade and were like “Oh my God, I haven’t played Crazy Taxi in forever, let’s play a few rounds! You can't go wrong with this game, which was featured for the first time in ten years at the annual charity fundraiser Awesome Games Done Quick. This is no ordinary speedrunner, though. No, this one has a live backing band playing a whole bunch of pop A punk song, it's as wild, fun and silly as you could hope for.

The name of the runner in question is Chuckles825, he of course wants to play the game as fast as possible, like almost all speed running games, but generally in Games Done Quick you will find some comments to explain them Meaning is being done. That's not the case here, not at all, because it's obviously a bit difficult when you have a live band playing. It's fun to watch because the band also has to pay attention to the game – they don't just play continuously without interruption, they have to stop as soon as the level is completed or restarted, resulting in bursts of laughter.

Now fully complete, Awesome Games Done Quick raised a huge $2,556,305 this year to benefit the Prevent Cancer Foundation, which always goes to a worthy cause. There are plenty of other fun runs uploaded to the official Games Done Quick YouTube channel, so if you're in need of something to kill some time, you're in luck.

Don't forget, there's also a new open-world MMO Crazy Taxi game in the works, although that doesn't sound quite right.
