Un juego de carreras en el que nunca hice una carrera.

Mostly I just drove the McLaren up the steep hills of San Francisco and jumped... We did manage a few multiplayer LAN sessions of this, those were super fun.

classic silly racing at its best

A une epoque ou je n'avais jamais vraiment joué à de jeux video c'était EXCEPTIONNEL. Deux maps immense avec un mode libre très sympa et surtout des missions super cool.

Played as part of CONQUERING MY CHILDHOOD

The first thing you'll notice when you play this game is that the physics have a complete mind of their own - you'll bounce straight off kerbs, clip underneath other cars or slide straight up the side of them, and a lone lamppost will send your 160mph supercar into a double backflip ending with you upside-down and facing backwards, all at the whims of the game. Physics this bad should cause a game like this to be dead on arrival, but I've had a lot of fun with it in spite of that!

Part of the wonky physics also work to the game's benefit - in particular, handbrake turns are disgustingly sharp and responsive and let you snap around corners in a way that I haven't seen in anything not called Crazy Taxi. Past the physics, the game has a lot of charm and cute little details that show that the devs had a good time making it, and I also like the more freeform structure of the game - the closest thing to a "story" mode is a kind of short thing that doubles as a weird tutorial, and the progression is focused on unlocking cars and skins - though that might be in part because I've been juggling a lot of longer games at the same time.

Also worth mentioning that this game has a pretty extensive modding scene - it made me aware of the idea of mods when I was like 6, and I was surprised to see that it's still (somewhat) alive today. Just a cool side note.

Después de jugar Juiced, se me vino a la mente, ¿Que juego había jugado en pc de niño y no recuerdo cuál es?. Y busque, y este juego resultó ser. Básicamente solo recuerdo unas 2 interfases que son idénticas, y varios carros, y dios mío. Por fin te alle hijo de puta. Cuando pueda lo juego, pero al ser tan viejo, no se cómo corra.

Pero fue de mis primeros juegos de todos, lo recuerdo del 2001 y 2002 cuando era un niño que ya empezaba a poder hablar mejor y a poder jugar, junto a Mario 64, y Banjoo Kazooie, fueron las primeras incursiones del videojuego en mi vida.
