    I remember when i played this game it was always fun and interesting. There where to many things that it lacked to list, surely it was not polished enough to be called an average game. Only thing i loved about it was the pink slip racing although you could only use your best car which way stupid....

    Good idea, odd execution. I can customize a car, but not tune it thoroughly. I have NO idea what an improved stereo does... The AI cars are interesting, but act in a way that a real driver would be crucified for. Very frustrating. The betting and 'Pinks' races add a cool element- so a 7 is justified. An 8 woudl not be.

    Too difficult and floaty.

    El juego se ha echo con muchas prisas, cuanto mas avanzas mas fallos ves, el control es malo y cuantomas avances mas empeora elcontrol y en general todo el juego.

    Good game with lots of features. Nice and easy car modding. Nice to be able to bet against other racers so you can win and still lose. Cars responsiveness is not as good as GT4 but will do.

    I play CS nearly 4 years and still enjoy it. There is no other game like this!

    Not the second one. That was disgraceful.    … Expand

    Juiced is an average racer that's fun to play. The PS2 version of this game is a bit lower in quality compared to the Xbox and PC version. The gameplay can be annoying at times but is mostly fun. The car customization is a bit dated but is still a big part of the game.
    Overall Juiced isn't the best racing game i've ever played but it isn't the worst by far.

    Very solid racer that still holds up today, awesome music, tight controls, memerable opponents and an interesting campaign overall. For me this is a solid 10!

    This game is sick! Tune cars, upgrade them and race for pink slips. The music is dope too and fits the racing perfectly. This is a gem of a game, go and try it you won't be dissapointed.

    This game is **** The only good thing about it is the advanced customization of the car, gameplay and engine noise, otherwise the game is a cesspool of high difficulty . It's not fun at all! When you tune the car the difficulty is raised in a ridiculous way.

    Really underrated game, very hard, thrilling and unforgiving. The handling it's a bit weird and need practice to make the best of it. The customizations are not that great, except for the paint which is incredible. The AI even on medium difficulty can be very hard, and there is no restart button.

    Juiced can be highly irritating at some times and completely unfair at others. Why, for instance, do you have to help pay to repair other racers' cars yet no one helps you get your car back into racing shape?

    Loads of fun to play. Hopefully, THQ has already commissioned "Juiced 2." [June 2005, p.76]

    An impressively comprehensive, reasonably captivating though ultimately flawed experience. [June 2005, p.95]
