Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights

[Lan.Evo.III]

why on Gods green Earth are the tracks absolutely ridiculous?! C'mon, metal plate tracks suspended in mid air going around and between the legs of the friggin Eiffel tower? Yikes.

Wait for the drifring track in Sydney, they turned the Sydney Opera House, into a drift track skybox.

[YaelDjiel]

i quite like the drift mode even if the tracks are crazy

[Lan.Evo.III]

It's all pretty crazy, I mean it's nice getting continued drift over a few million points.

[YaelDjiel]

indeed... cant wait to try that on the full game..
cant really pull off big drifts in the demo since its either 2 laps or time limited :/

[Lan.Evo.III]

I beleive my second highest drift was done within 2 minutes, using a Holden Monaro, around an ice track, so it's not really a big acomplishment, considering all I had to do was liven up the torque and keep the body off the walls. But it was around 3-5 million points. I only tried getting more points so I could finish a challenge.

[Strafer]

This game is not so good, I tried the demo on PS3 and my first impression was zero.

[ImJ]

What's so bad about the game, i mean i've played the demo and it was quite fun, only problem was handling when you turn around the corner you do a drift ¬.¬ but besides that rest is cool

[GINIX_2007]

Just played the demo on my friends PC.
The good
Great Graphics!!! car models are really good and detailed.
Menus are also pretty good especially the main menu.
The Bad
This is all out arcade though the cars handle like um Outrun 2006. Way too easy!! really didnt like that at all. its like bumper cars on the track. The music, nothing special. I was really hoping they would do a good job on that because the original juiced soundtrack was awesome!
Sense of speed is missing as well. Maybe thats because i played NFS ProStreet before i played this.
Also the engine sounds are dull and in some cases terrible.
To sum it up in one word, Disappointing

[race_invader]

Yeah they dissapointed me with the engine sounds.. They even said on a interview the final game will have real car sounds they even promised IGN.

[Koenigsegg_Rox]

After playing both demos, I can definitely say that ProStreet has actually exceeded my expectations, I reckon that J2 fails in comparison to PS. But, I'll wait until the full games before I make the full decision. Two of my mates say that Juiced 2 is pretty good, but compared to ProStreet, I don't know. I'll wait until the 22nd, when ProStreet releases.

[YaelDjiel]

uh.. lol? its nothing like outrun
btw ginix... were the vinyls on his pc the same as on mine? (as in bugged..)

[GINIX_2007]

When I say Outrun 2006 I mean way to arcade-like u can basically drift around every corner! its fun at first but it gets real old real quick.

And about the vinyls, I messed around with them for a bit and i did not encounter any bugs at all. In fact thats the main strong point for me so far, the graphics!

[YaelDjiel]

weird.. that means its a problem here... damn :/

[Danyutz]

weird.. that means its a problem here... damn :/

make it double .. I have the same issue

[race_invader]

Hmm.. sucks for you PC users..

Xbox 360 Patch released!! Took sometime downloading so it must be big, i have no idea what it fixes though but if i notice anything ill let you guys know.

[Danyutz]

not bad, maybe there will be some changes, major ones .. hope for a PC one, after the game is released.

[YaelDjiel]

pfft.... new possible release date as seen on juiced.de..... 7 december T_T

[Danyutz]

rofl mate .. they are a joke .. I seriously don't like how they handle the things .. too many mistakes. if this delay it's an improvement for the final release, i won't mind.

[YaelDjiel]

if this delay it's an improvement for the final release, i won't mind.

they better improve it, wtf is this wait for other wise?
ALL other platforms are released already

[Danyutz]

I don't have a good impression on the demo, but still, I can't pronounce myself 100% if I like it or don't.

[Koenigsegg_Rox]

I'll probably rent Juiced 2 instead of buying it, some aspects of the game turned me right off of it.

And plus, ProStreet even has a wheelie competition in drags!

[OKIDrifter]

I like Juiced 2! I think it is a hella lot of fun! Love the car selection, and it has something that no NFS game has (or will) Given us, a create a character mode so it is all about the character you make! Plus it isnt sexist making you a male caharacter! Im a male, and so is my character, but I have a few female friends who think that.

[Koenigsegg_Rox]

Actually, I'm gonna buy both J2 and PS tomorrow... Juiced 2 got me hooked from the first race!

[Danyutz]

7 Dec in Europe, 6 Dec in Australia .. and US - TBA 2007

[YaelDjiel]

wow... thats a major change there Koenigsegg_Rox O.o
