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.

Perfectly fun, and amazing game

I got this on the PC, and I loved it. Sadly, my new PC does not have a disc drive, so I bought it on GOG. I still love the game to this day, and hope that the series goes on.

Absolutely brilliant 'fun' driving sim - runs great on linux with Crossover-Games

I have driven (and raced) cars & bikes for more than 30years now. I like driving cars so much, the only thing I'm happy with driving on the road, is a coupe, due to their unique chassis/handling qualities. When it comes to driving/racing sims, I can become over-critical very easily...but there are two different kinds of these things. There are 'serious' driving/racing sims -- these are the sort of games you wish you had -real- steering-wheel/pedals/gearshift and other controls, that feel and react onscreen exactly the way they would/should in a real car..and then there are 'fun' games of this type, where the most enjoyment to be had is using a joystick or gamepad to control the car instead. This GOG release of FlatOut installs and runs great on linux using Codeweavers Crossover-Games (I believe this is true for the Mac version as well). For years I'd been a big fan of the RollCage series using analog joystick for input, and never found gamepad to be quite as much fun with those titles. FlatOut is quite the opposite -- here is a game that gives you a reason for having a gamepad. The linux/crossover-game interaction with a USB gamepad controlling FlatOut is seamless -- real plug&play material. Not many driving games lend themselves to the immediate hard-left/hard-right/quick recenter steering control input most basic gamepads provide, but FlatOut is the exception -- you will end up appreciating this kind of steering control with this game, because if you're doing it right, best laps are obtained by literally going flat-out, committing to lines you won't be able to see for 5 or 6 seconds, and then controlling huge powerslides around corners looking for that 'perfect' line. Most of the time, it's kind of like driving rally-x without a navigator beside you to help you out along the way. The physics are great fun, certainly car-control wise they're very 'close to the mark' to what will happen if you get it wrong ..and don't wear a seatbelt. If there is a strategy to winning this game, it is this -- get out infront, go hard don't look back, and don't stuff-up. The AI drivers get meaner and uglier as you progress thru the levels...and quicker. They will give you no respect, give them none in return...many a time I've pitched the thing into a corner so hard, the -only- way I'm going to get around it, is if I hit the opponent car my chosen line is deliberately part of...you really -do- have to drive gloves-off here. The only thing I found the fun could've been added to, would have been a so called 'kickdown' switch to force the auto back a gear, and being able to change the actual gear ratios themselves...but other than that, outstanding FUN!

Crazy Fun.

Flatout, well is Flatout insane. If you enjoy cars fliping across your screen or blowing up into each other, then Flatout is the game for you. The later games have improved game play and user interface. Very fun series.
