This game is totally addicting for a while. when I first got it I could not stop smashing imto other cars and watch the cool effects when that happens, but I found that this game got old really fast!

Crashing is so cool, its almost worth it!(PC)

I do not understand why anyone would really dislike this game, maybe not there favorite, but theres nothin bad about this game. Great attention to detail when it comes to crashes and getting dinged up by other cars. All the game modes are fun(race,derby,stunt)
Online play is really fun too, especially if you have a mic.
Only bad part is some tracks are the same tracks, just in opposite directions and the cars slide around too much as if you have absoluty no tred.
Best racing game I've ever played though. The need for speeds are fun, but generally have little or no damage and the tracks all look a little too similiar. They also don't offer as many jumps and the crashes are not nearly as spectacular. You'll be wanting to see some of your best crashes over again in slow motion in Flatout 2. I can't wait for the 360 version!

Inferior to the original

The original Flatout was fun on several levels, but the best thing was the ability to head off the track and explore. It was great for 2-player, particularly for "jump contests"...find a huge hill and see who can jump farthest and/or crash the best!
Flatout 2, on the other hand, summarily puts you back in the track if you stray very far. What were they thinking?

Worst racing game I've ever played!

I've been playing racing games since Apogee's Death Rally, and that game, which came out in the early 90s, is more fun than this one! After you get past level one on the career area, the players get pathetically and unrealistically hard, to the point where the game isn't fun anymore. The racing courses are horribly designed. It's set so that if you don't follow the EXACT course they want you to, you will lose. I don't know why they bothered to design all these extra areas if you can't go into them! And if you reset, you get put back so many feet your lead, if you were even able to get one, is gone, or if you're trying to catch up, you never will!

The cars are way too hard to handle as well. You don't get much if as boost for drift, or, as the game is designed, you don't always get your boost for destroying things. They(cars)look soo silly, and no matter how many times to hit a person, or you get hit, there's no damage.

The stunts areas, the ones where you can throw your driver out of the car, is terrible! It looks like it would be very bloody, but there's not a single drop of the beautiful red stuff! And once again you have to be complete perfect to get enough points to even get into the top 5.

The demolition areas are a royal pain. Unlike other games where the cars disappear so they aren't in the way, all the damage stays...ALL OF IT! So you can blow youself out on a dead car. And if you're doing too well, all the other players will do is attack you, and you alone!

So in short, what is the point in playing a game that requires you to have to be completely perfect to win? Isn't the point of gaming to be fun? Cause I sure wasn't having any!

This game is a waste of money and time!

Great Game

This game seems as though it couldn't decide if it wanted to be an arcade style or sim style racer.On the one hand you got arcady style battling and trying to hammer opponents off the road,on the other hand controlling the vehicle is difficult at times cause its more sim like.I really like the game though cause you can battle with other cars to knock them off the road but at the same time its not to outrageous like the cart racers where you fire weapons and stuff.One great thing is that its got a decent online set up which many of todays racers are lacking.If you have online access i say its a must buy and becomes a 5 star game,if not its still a good addition to any racers collection and about a 4 star game.Mini games are hard but cool and add alot more variety and replay value then your average racing game.Burnout fans should like this game and GT 4 fans who want a break from the sim racing and play a fun less serious racer should get a kick out of this title.
