Crazy Taxi 3: High Roller (クレイジータクシー 3 ハイローラー), known simply as Crazy Taxi: High Roller in the arcades due to Crazy Taxi 2 being a Dreamcast exclusive, is a Sega Chihiro arcade game released in 2003. It has since been ported to the Xbox and Windows PCs.

Crazy Taxi 3 is similar to its predecessors, so much so that some levels are identical (though have received a slight graphical update). The main part of the game takes place in "Glitter Oasis", modelled loosely on Las Vegas, and contains four new drivers not seen in previous installments.
