So, I like Need For Speed series. I think the best NFS so far is Underground 2, cuz there's night, and a beautiful city where to drive around. I would get Carbon, cuz it seems a bit like Underground 2, but all my buddies have told me that it sucks, so I'm not even considering it anymore, but I still want a street racing game... JUICED! I remembered one! But the question is, is Juiced anything what I expect from a street racer? I want a city where I can drive around freely, and tune my car so it looks just the way I like it. Is Juiced anything like that? Or, will Juiced 2 be? Or is it just this: Tune ur car and add some performance things to it. Then choose a race and go straight on race? Is it like a regular race game, with just street-looking cars? Or is a REAL street racer? Thank you:)

PS. I'm now going to watch the trailer, but I will really need your opinions too!!

downlosd the demo for free on xbox live and see for yourself. The controls are really weird, they are really sensitive compared to the other racers. If you know anything about "Hot Import Night" (HIN) then you will get the complete understanding and atmosphere experience from this game. It's not the best racing game nor is it worth buying for the full price, but it's worth a rental or purchase after the price lowers.

First off well done! Someone else who agrees NFSUG2 is the best in series closely followed by NFS: MW.

Anyway, Juiced is I suppose direct competition for the NFS series but doesn't compare IMO, as said the controls are weird and the customization is ok but is there a need for stereo faceplates and such? Stuff you never see, the good thing about Juiced is pink slip races these are what street racing is all about and NFS should incorporate.

Also the dodgy soundtrack to Juiced makes it a bit un-bearable, personally I recommend NFS;MW on the 360 until Pro-Street comes out in a couple of months, but that's just me ;)

Yup. They really should make a new NFS like this: Almost identical to Underground 2, but it should include the MW:s cop chaces. And it should have next gen graphics and sounds. Oh damn, that would be awesome! :P

i agree about NFSU2 one of the best street racing games , a lot of options to customize your car , free roam , smart opponents , and most wanted is really nice too i love the police chases they are always exciting , but carbon sucked bad because it was really easy and even a noob racer will win in any race.

im just sick of need for speed whatsoever, hot pursuit was the best i reckon until they got into all this 'hip hop, underground, spend thousands on cars parts, like d**kh**ds in fast and the furious c***'. and now they wont stop, theyve made like 10 games based of this (possibly not including some that are on handhelds). a bit like tony hawks... they will never change, they will just keep updating graphics and a few not noticable features and raking in your money, like movie lisenced games.

Yeah I've played juiced one on various other consoles and NFS beats it easy. Pro-street comes out soon anywayz, wait for that.

Unless your a car game fan, then you'll find it just dandy.

I think I'm gonna make one thing clear: If I'm getting a street racer, reality is everything else but what I want. I'm looking for a cool and fun experience. I mean, dark night, awesome cars and neon lights flashing, slowmotion-mode, good-looking drifts, and things like that. The racing isn't actually the main reason I play street racers. I hate realistic racing. But in street racers, there's something so cool that makes me fly. I hope this helped a bit. :)

Oh, and one thing! Is there a big city that u can freely explore? That means a lot, because if there isn't, it seems like a normal boring racing game to me. NFSUG2 FTW!!!:P
