Game News - Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights Also Drifting On DS

   A few days ago, it was confirmed by the Swedish Gamereactor magazine that THQ plans to continue its disappointing NFS-wanna-be series with Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights, a sequel set for release on the PC, PS3, Xbox 360, PS2, and PSP. Well, they got the title right, but left out one platform. As properly announced today by the publisher, the game will indeed be released this Fall for all of the above-mentioned platforms, but also for the Nintendo DS handheld.

   Putting aside the fact that they refer to Juice Games' franchise as being "original", THQ also brags about Juiced 2 being "the only game that allows players to showcase their skills at Hot Import Nights events" - a global tuner event and a very profound lifestyle experience by the looks of it (there's nothing quite like an expensive nitro-packed car and a cheap silicon-implanted babe to enlighten yourself).

   Juiced 2 also promises to feature unparalleled vehicle customization, an adrenaline packed drift racing experience and ultra-realistic "Driver DNA". Here are some words of wisdom from a Juiced Games developer and some Hot Import Nights official:
"Juiced 2: HIN introduces a thrilling new drifting component and lets players personalize their experience both on and offline with ultra realistic Driver DNA," said Colin Bell, general manager, Juice Games. "In addition to a ton of exciting new features, we've significantly expanded the rewarding driving experience, track choice and customization our fans have come to expect."

"Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights is an amazing extension of the Hot Import Nights lifestyle experience, bringing the modding, characters and racing finale to life for gamers and tuning fans worldwide," said Michael Munar, Executive Producer, APG Events/Hot Import Nights. "This is the first time a top-tier racing game has blended with a true-to-life global tuner event and we can't wait for its release."    According to Gamereactor's article, the sequel will include 93 cars, and feature racing in several European cities.
