    It's a decent racing game, on a platform with lots of outstanding ones. The unoriginality is a bit striking in that you customize your ride, and it's got the whole corporate fake street lingo happening. The career is a bit harsh. You can be doing well and all of a sudden lose your pimped out expensive vehicle in a bet, and then seriously struggle to get a decent enough car to It's a decent racing game, on a platform with lots of outstanding ones.

You can be doing well and all of a sudden lose your pimped out expensive vehicle in a bet, and then seriously struggle to get a decent enough car to earn money again. It can be a vicious cycle. The tracks, while nice, are a bit bland - you don't actually race in anything but closed circuits. If this game came out in 2002, I think it would blow some people away. But today it feels somewhat stale. Expand

    Putting in old cars and ones that don't have anything to do with todays standards of street-modding seems a little unthoughtout. Seems like they were trying to get the best of both worlds in here at once. Some PGR2 and some NFSU don't go well together. I'll stick with SRS until NFSU2 comes out. This game won't stand up to Forza even though that is what it is trying to Putting in old cars and ones that don't have anything to do with todays standards of street-modding seems a little unthoughtout.

    In relation to the more arcade-based titles available at the moment this game is the leader of the pack, as it manages to deliver everything that makes street racing enjoyable at a high standard, in one neat package. [June 2005, p.106]
  2. A pretty decent street racer, with great selection of cars and juicy customization options.

    The simple truth is that Juiced is behind the curve. The racing isn't bad, but the game places emphasis on the wrong reward system.
