Daffy Duck has somehow managing to break Granny's time regulator, causing himself and the Time Gem that acts as the heart of the regulator to be pitched back into the shrouded annals of history. Well, if there are two people you know to call when it comes to times of crisis they would be Bugs Bunny and ... Taz? Well, regardless of the intelligence of the decision, Bugs and Taz will have to work together on this mission, traveling through four different eras in a quest to find Daffy, recover the Time Gem and set things back to the way they ought to be.

Take control of the two famous Warner Bros. characters in Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time Busters for the PlayStation. You will alternate between the wise-cracking rabbit and the Tasmanian eating machine in an attempt to rescue the Time Crystal and Daffy. To do so, they'll have to use the Time Regulator themselves, blasting back through four different eras to complete their quest. These time periods are The Aztec Era, The Viking Era, The Arabian Era and Transylvanian Era.

Each character has his own set of moves, from Bugs' quickness to Taz's spinning fury. You can play each of the characters at any point, calling your friend to your location and switching between them, occasionally using them at nearly the same time to get past a given obstacle. If you don't want to play the game alone, you can even bring in a second friend to play the other character.

The game sports 30 levels that take place within the four eras, as well as a training mode in granny's world. Along with familiar Looney Tunes scenery, you'll meet up with some familiar faces in the form of your opposition, fighting such old enemies as Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd.

     MISC CODES:
      Extra life -  When you win the Pelota game or any of the others you will get a coin of 25. Play again for an extra life. Play it two more times and you will get another extra life. Note: The Pelota game is easy when Taz is on the court.
      Borrowing health -  When you are Bugs Bunny or Taz, hit the other character and they will cough up a carrot or two. You can use this trick to get extra health if you there are no carrots available or if you really need it.
      Get more carrots from smaller enemies -  Normally you only can get three carrots when you jump on a enemy's head and then kick them. To get a few more carrots out of each small enemy, sneak up behind them and kick them a couple of times. Then, jump on their heads and kick them. This will give you a total of five or six carrots. Note: This cannot be done on monkeys.
      Aztec Era: Eat Bugs Bunny -  In the Aztec Era, play as Taz and stand by Bugs Bunny. Wait a while and Taz will eat him. Note he will just take a bite, and not eat him completely.
      Moon Valley: Catapult -  When in the Moon Valley level and you cannot get the catapult to work, there is another way. When near the second light, go up the little hill, jump on the anvil, then jump to the light. Note: You can only stay on the anvil for a short amount of time or you will fall off. This may take several attempts.
      Moon Valley: Get thrown on the catapult -  Note: Only Bugs can do this. Get Bugs to stand on the catapult. Press Triangle and he will sit down. Give him the mirror. Once he is on, press X and he will go flying onto the other platform with the light switch. Then, transport Taz if desired, hit the light, and the drawbridge should go down.
      Transylvania Era: Play as a monster -  Put Bugs Bunny or Taz on the Transfer Machine. Then, have a monster chase you. Run towards the circle on the Transfer Machine. You will then be able to play as a monster. Note: You also have to make your character stand perfectly on a circle so you can swap brains.
      Defeating Yosemite Sam -  When he gets in the room, run him around the place a little bit. He will eventually get tired and take a couple of breaths. While he is taking his breaths, kick him. His hat will get stuck on his face. This will give you time to grab the torch that he is holding. When you get the torch, place Taz near one of the blocks. Then, have Bugs jump on Taz's head to get up on the block. Flame the rope and do the same thing on the other blocks. After this is done the platform will fall on Yosemite Sam's head and Daffy Duck will automatically take the Time Gem and it will warp him to Elmer's Domain.
      Defeating Elmer Fudd -  Jump on the switches that will take down the statue that Elmer is standing on. When this is done, go nearby and he will try to hit you with his hammer. Dodge him and his hammer will get stuck in the cement. This will give you time to kick him, and he will drop his hammer. Hit the switches around the cage that holds the Time Gem. Do this to all the switches and the cage will break. Elmer will fall of the cliff and Daffy Duck will take the Time Gem and it will warp him to Babba's Cave.
      Defeating Babba -  When Babba is chasing you, run him under one of the shadows. A huge chest of gold will fall on his head and he will be unconscious. Make sure Bugs is on one of the switches and the gong will turn towards you. Pick up Babba and throw him at the gong. Do this to all four gongs and you will defeat Babba. Daffy Duck will then pick up the Time Gem and warp him to Counts Castle.
      Faster broken bridge crossing -  When you get to the broken bridge and are trying to get the gear in front of the dog, instead of tip toeing to get across the bridge, do the following. When you get to the broken bridge, do the Bugs Helicopter and immediately when you land, jump to the grass. Be careful when you hit the grass -- immediately press Circle or the dog will get you.
      Glitch: Stand on air -  In the Aztec Era, hold L2 + R2 when standing. Use the D-pad to point in the desired direction. Make sure it is pointing down. When you have your view, release L2 + R2 and it will appear as if you are standing on air.
