I have been playing this game for well more than 20 years, never stopped. It has remained my favorite game of all time, only a select few ever coming remotely close.
This game has never been re-released on a digital store. I want nothing more than for it to have a current release, as it would help accessibility massively, and really help the community to grow. I think GOG is perfect.
I speak on behalf of this game's community as well, we all want this to happen.
I have done reverse engineering work with this game, and i'm the developer of the QoL Patch Tool for the PC version. I am more than happy to assist with improvements if this game was to be added.
This is one of my favorite games to play at the arcade. I have sunk so many hours into it over the years, and it's a shame that there is no way to play the original arcade version at home. All of the console ports are inferior to the arcade in some way and seeing a PC release would breathe so much new life into this wonderful game.
My local town had a Hydro Thunder cabinet that I had followed and played from location to location growing up. I played it at the bowling alley, Pizza Hut, mall, eventually it was retired but I tracked it down, bought it, and fixed it up. Now I have three Hydro Thunder cabinets linked but not everyone is lucky enough to have the coin-op game. This would be the prefect way for the modern generation to play at home. It's a fantastically fun and timeless game!
This game has been an incredibly large part of my life, it was the first videogame I ever played and continued to be one of my favorites for years to come, the idea of this game fading away makes me terrified. This is why the opportunity to preserve it is not something I take lightly, please preserve!!!!
Absolute GOAT of arcade racers. No pizza place was worth the time if they didn’t have it. Would definitely drop more than a few quarters to see it on pc, would name my firstborn after the person who can get a multiplayer function to work as well.

JuicedJuiced is a racing video game for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and mobile phone. The game was delayed for release in 2004 because its original publisher, Acclaim, went bankrupt. Juice Games and Fund 4 Games retained ownership of the property and sold the game to THQ, who funded the project for a further six months of improvements. In early 2006, British software publisher Focus Multimedia re-released the PC version of Juiced at a new budget price as part of its "Essential" games series. The game offers different modes including career and arcade that present the player with challenges of increasing difficulty. The player can customize the car to suit their style and unlock new ones in arcade mode. The game features nitrous boosts, similar to that of other racing games. Juiced went to number one in the United Kingdom MCV sales charts and its first version sold 2.5 million units.Open world Non-fiction
