A wonderful idea, but poorly developed.

Flatout is a game with pro and cons, something halfway from a Carmageddon, a rally and Destruction Derby PROs - The graphic is still amazing after years - Physics is great - Amazing head-to-head with other cars while trying to get into first positions CONs - Minimap is unuseful since you can't see where the cars are facing (expecially in the arenas) - The first NASCAR already came out with a paintkit, while the colors of the cars are standardized and poor - The garage settings are sad: often you have no idea of what benefit you're getting buying a certain piece - Difficulty is high when your car's HP are over 250, you can barely understand what's going on, and keeping the car on the track is almost impossible - For comparison, Carmageddon had a wider selection of controls, a better damage table, and more drivable cars - You'll see you forced to run the same races over and over just to get the money you need to tune your car for higher level races Flatout is a nice game if you're thinking to do 3-5 races, after that you *will* need a break.

More racing games for Linux! :)

Not all works out of the box on Gentoo. There is a issue with sound but is ease to fix, simple remove FlatOut/wine_standalone/lib/i386-linux-gnu/alsa-lib and make sure that app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-soundlibs if sound deson't works for you out of the box on amd64 architecture. Works like a charm on mobile i5 with integrated HD 4000 GPU (even on FHD). Flatout is not TOCA Race drive, but is DRM free and works without required CD inside your drive all the time when you want play.

Fun

I bought this game around 2005. And boy, what a game it was. I remember seeing the guy flying through windshield at the cover art and was thinking could it actually happen in real life. And will it happen in this game. It did. Then I looked at the back of the disc box where I saw some screenshots and was surprised by the damage model and wondered if it was like that in the game. It was even better. This game came out in 2004, but it offered so much complex graphical options (for its age), like anisotropic texture filtering or even the anti aliasing. It looked beautiful, and most importantly, it was fun. So much fun. You could do whatever the hell you want. Even if you had the slowest car, are the worst driver, if you know how to crash into other people, you could win. And crashing is fun, since the damage model was the best since then, it looked realistic, but is not. And the mini games. Shoot your guy in the air, crash into other cars and be the last surviving... Should be its own game. Get the game if you like mayhem, and don't mind ages.

Rally-like arcade for embeded videocard

The biggest plus is that it runs smooth on notebook with embeded Intel card (detected as 4600 or smth) I've passed the Bronze by now (9/36 races) - the asphalt tracks are easiest and most predictable. After some practice/upgrades 1st track is just 1000$ prize for 4 minutes racing. - there is defenetely some catch-up - you won't lose too much crashing as team will slow down while you restart, and there would be always one car trying to keep close if you are leading to make your nervous enough - car selection does matter. 1st car sucks, while selecting other one make me pass bronze with only few replays. so chose wise. - once you pass bronze you have to buy new silver car as you upgraded bolid sucks. so you probably don't need all the upgrades but better keep the money. good news is that silver car is allowed to race a bronze race, making easy money - bonus stunt events sucks to me, as it's not about the racing. but try it once to see if it make fun to you. to sum up: somethere between Juiced and Colin Mcrae Rally. Must buy on Sale. ('Loosing is fun' style) p.s. using 'Normal' handling + Auto.

Flatout fun!

old school racing, spectacular physiccs of it's time, no frills. A bunch of customisation options, surprisingly more than20+ years later, still gives modern racing titles a run for their money.
