FlatOut

This is a high quality game. By that I mean it's stable, has good graphics, a nice size collection of cars & tracks and a reasonable selection of game modes. I personally didn't enjoy the rag doll based game modes where you have to throw the driver a certain distance/direction. Felt a bit like a tech demo to me, to show off their physics engine - which by the way is very impressive! The whole car seems deformable, and the motion, as you steer, is very fluid. The car (and driver) feel very much a part of the environment. I completed the career mode, but it requires persistence. The game starts off quite easy, but all of a sudden gets very difficult and you find yourself having to drive the tracks perfectly to win. To win, the game doesn't really reward the act of smashing into other cars. It's better to just clip them to spin them off or veer them into a tree/building; that way you don't loose your momentum. Flatout 2 is really just an extension of Flatout 1. I can recommend them both. To conclude; if you like muscle cars, arcade-style driving games, drifting around dirt tracks and a challenge, then this game is for you. If you like 2 or more of those things then you should still give it a try.

I'm not a fan of racing game but this one is the only one i liked so far! First, The bonus mini-games feature is just hilarious and fun. Perfect to play with friends in a party. Second, the off-roads style track are pretty well designer and fun to play. And Third, the cars are fakes so there is no "car constructor" involved in the production of this game which means that you can totally destroy your cars and THAT is a feature that is missing in most of racing game these days! This game is simply a must have! :)

This game is simply amazing. It is worth its value by so much. The graphics are great, especially compared to some of the other racing games for $6. I was very pleased when I went to buy it and found it at $4.19. This game has amazing damage modeling. This game is great.

I have played this game for years now, and still do. There is a multiplayer for LAN, and with a small program called joiner.exe you can play this game also over the internet. The cars are feeling very good, it are american cars so they are a bit drifting but the race experince is super. And of course when you crash then is the flying trough the windshield LOL. It works fine on windows 7 64 bit, xp and vista. A GREAT GAME

Some racing games try and be realistic, this one is just fun. Difficulty is IMHO just fit, I'd swear the "IA" adapts to your skills by slowing down if you're way behind and speeding up if you're ahead of them. Anyway, trying to let them crash and watch yourself driving a completely crushed car, with burning engine, smoke and broken windows, is just fun. Graphics are quite good, it's my favorite racing game by now.
