Juiced 2 is the second instalment in the wild world of drifting games that started a while ago with the original Juiced (also available on this service). It features an impressive number of cars to buy and customize, down to the very last detail. Not only will you get to sample the best cars that every maker of quality rides can throw at you, but you'll also get to drive them in unique locations on some of the most exciting tracks. Choose your car from 5 distinct categories, ranging from Exotic (good luck in getting that elusive Ascari KZ1 or Pagani Zonda Roadster F) to the classic racers or old and more recent American muscle cars (here's to you, Dodge Viper).

You start the game in the local disco club, by choosing and customizing your character (down to his eyebrows), then buying and modding your very own car, with an incredibly rich list of features available. We're speaking of being able to change pretty much everything, including your seat and steering wheel! Of course, you can also choose from a variety of body kits, if you are itching to get on the track and don't want to spend a long time in the paddocks.
Juiced 2 will indeed let you battle it out in the streets, amidst the cheers of the crowd and the smell of burning rubber! With an advanced career mode, and important improvements made on the first game, you can now access three different types of racing modes: Circuit, Destination and Drift races. You will also be able to enjoy one of the new features called Driver DNA, which records your style of driving and creates a strand of "DNA". This DNA will be shown before the beginning of a race, and will be viewed as a guide of the players' driving habits. You can of course flaunt your own style, and experiment with it in the Driver DNA Lab.

You'll also be able to partake in online races with up to 8 players, through the Games for Windows service (see instructions below). With even more race modes, such as the classic Pink Slip races, which will affect your Career mode, Juiced 2 will keep you going for hours on end!

Graphically, the game is very demanding, and will have your graphics card on its knees as quick as you can get your car out of your crew's garage! In Juiced 2, its not only the cars that look superb, (especially with all that tuning going on), but it's also the tracks and urban landscapes, such as drifting around the Eiffel Tower's arches. You will have the hard choice of deciding which curves look best, the cars' or the women's.

N.B. You'll need to enter the multiplayer key TWICE: once to activate the game when playing for the first time, and once when creating your multiplayer online account with Windows Live. You can receive your multiplayer key via mail by requesting it on the link on this page (next to the Play button when logged in).
