Not worth the time, despite all of the available Car Roster
Its really a difficult Street racing game, the turning is horrible, and its very difficult. Whats so "Street" about racing on a track with other cars?
A lot of the game is based around the respect system. Basically you will have to perform well in different types of races and do a lot of different things to earn respect from eight different people. For the most part you will have to perform well in circut, sprint, and point-to-point races. Oh yeah and did i mention that the drag races are known as sprint races in this game? Anyway some of the other racers however will need you to do other things, such as performing well in Show-off's, having a good car collection, having a stylish and fast car and performing well in pink slip races. You have to earn 1 000 respect points from each character to finish the game, and along the way they will grant you certain privileges such as attending theie races, being able to race in their hosted races and racing them for pink slips. And of coarse its possible top lose respect by doing the opposite of the things listed above . Its a pretty cool idea
There is also another new feature which is your crew. Yeah. At some point of the game some random racers will ask you if they can join your crew. And if they are in your crew you can let them race for you. This is a cool feature except 80% of the time, if you choose to let someone in your crew race, they will lose and you will lose respect. And other than that they don't really do anything. Whats the point?
The graphics are pretty good. The models look plain and ugly, and the enviroments, just tremendously difficult to look at. Graphics are pretty bad all around.
While there are some unique gameplay features here, some of the gameplay is broken in some ways. While the game does feature some good graphics, thats certainly not enough to make Juiced an enjoyable experience. I could maybe make an exceptioon for hardcore fans of racing games, but for anyone else you should just save your money and instead of buying it, just give it a rental because thats pretty much all its worth.
(Just get Midnight Club 3 its alot better)
