Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights

Don't let all the flashy extras put you off Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights. If you like your arcade racers - and this game doesn't pretend to be anything but (the title screen tells you that "the vehicle driving depicted in this game may not be entirely realistic") then you'll love Juiced 2. It may be a pimped up ride, but underneath the bonnet it has the heart of a true racing game.

Hot Import Nights es la primera entrega de esta saga que aparece para la portátil de Sony y lo cierto es que goza de una gran calidad global. Este título posee una gran representación tanto de los vehículos como de los escenarios ofreciendo un gran catálogo de coches que además son todos reales y bastante conocidos. El control de estos así como la gran cantidad de pruebas y la forma en que se presentan también es un gran punto a favor. También es cierto que posee ciertos fallos gráficos y algo de reiteridad sonora sin embargo detalles como las apuestas o el original ADN de piloto hacen que este título se convierta en una de las principales opciones de cara a adquirir un título de conducción en estas fechas. Si te gusta el tuning no te lo puedes perder y si no es así os recomendamos que lo probeis dejando atrás los prejuicios de pasar de los juegos que no tienen un nombre ya creado en el género.

Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights is a solid game and while it could have been a little more polished and certainly could have had better car handling this remains a game which we enjoyed playing here at Futuregamez. Worth a look.

Juiced 2 n'est pas le jeu de courses de l'année mais il s'immisce tout doucement entre des titres moyens comme Import Tuner Challenge et des références comme Need For Speed. Les amateurs de tuning en auront pour leur argent, ceux qui cherchent avant tout un gameplay original resteront davantage sur leur faim.

With a range of wireless modes thrown in for good measure, there's plenty to keep the 'modders' out there amused, so if you like cars, you like girls with big boobies and you like to slide round corners rather than taking a proper racing line like a grown-up driver (you young scamps!), then this is definitely the game for you. Any fans of Burnout-style car carnage... and any girls (unless they're 'girls who like girls'), should probably look elsewhere though.

Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights has its share of strengths and weaknesses. The layout of the Career mode is nice, and there's lots to do. However, some aspects of the car customization are poor, and the track design is fairly generic. If you love customizing cars and racing them, you'll find some things to like here. But certainly don't expect perfection.

Juiced 2 does some things right. It requires balanced skills in both racing and drifting, and the Spook Meter is a kick. Ultimately, though, it doesn't do enough to stand out in an already crowded field of PSP racers. With Need for Speed: ProStreet dropping in a few weeks, gamers might be better off waiting a bit to get their high-speed adrenaline rushes.
