Product Description

Product Description

Experience the drive of your life in Flat Out as you throw yourself around 45 challenging tracks in one of 16 fully upgradeable cars. The track environment is subject to an advanced physics system unique to this game, and is set to define a new standard in racing games. Fences will shatter, tyre walls will explode, water tanks and barrels will fly across the track into other cars. Every time you lose control, you will truly feel the weight of the car as it collides with and destroys a barn, or smashes into the pack of cars ahead of you, and with 40 deformable pieces on every car sparks are guaranteed to fly.

Anything you destroy or alter stays a part of the race, increasing the carnage to unprecedented levels. Broken fences, free rolling tyres, and even mangled parts of cars are left scattered around the track, increasing the mayhem with every lap. The expansive free-roaming tracks also allow you to dictate exactly how you drive your race, whether that be taking every shortcut, jump and by-road you can find, or keeping to the racing line and using your driving skills to rein supreme.

An extensive championship mode will keep you "flat out" for months on end as you battle through a huge variety of races, mini-games and the most outrageous arenas of destruction you could possibly imagine. And it doesn't stop there. Online and multiplayer gaming options add even more variety to the game play. Challenge your closest peers, or the best gamers from across the globe and compete in the most realistic racer to date.

4.0 out of 5 stars What the Destruction Derby series SHOULD have been, 13 Nov 2004
By Joti Plahay (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What a great little game this is! Basically this is banger racing on your PS2 featuring tarmac, dirt and ice circuits!

The car physics are great - barrel rolls look convincing and, handling-wise - it is similar to playing any good rally game (lots of oversteer and feathering the throttle).

Although this is certainly not a "fast" racing game (like Burnout 3 for example) the fact that you have a bit more time to think means that your manouevres can be a little more precise and intentional. Stacking an opponent into a crane and hearing that driver wailing as he/she ploughs through the windscreen is akin to doing a good "takedown" on B3 i.e. it puts a big grin on your face!

Driving aggressively earns you Nitro boost which is dead useful for overtaking - it has little effect when used to ram opponents.

Unfortunately you only score "cash" for destroying objects, not for stylishly shunting your opponents into heavy objects.

The only similarity this game has to Gran Turismo is the manner in which you start: have money, buy a banger, win races, win money, tune banger, etc.

There are many sub-games too - including a DD-style destruction bowl and "figure of 8" racetracks too.

The bonus "jumping" events (hurl your man/woman through the windscreen in a high jump or long jump fashion!) have to be seen to be believed!!!

To me this game is a logical progression of the first Destruction Derby game on PS1 - the physics, graphics and sound have of course all been much improved and it's certainly much closer to DD1 than Reflections' own DD Arenas release.

Flat Out has no online capability, but it does have multiplayer (split screen or up to 4 player sequential) modes.

I think it's a cracking little game! ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Automotive anarchy!, 18 Nov 2005
By A Customer
This is one of those rare games that has such a simple premise but which is so excellently executed that you sit down to play each time with the knowledge that you're in completely safe hands. What could be more straightforward? Hurtle around a series of varying tracks smashing the blazes out of the scenery and your opponents and earning money in the process which you invest in upgrading your car or buying a better one. That’s it, or would be if you don’t add superb graphics, beautiful environments, damage that looks more real than in any other game I’ve encountered, opponents who are just shy of insane and, most important of all, an outlandish sense of fun that lends the whole thing immense ramp-jumping, windscreen-shattering playability. This is a deliriously fun game and you find yourself laughing aloud at the mayhem and cries of pain as your fellow competitors get thrown from their cars and roll beneath your wheels as you speed by into first place. Add to the mix some sublimely silly bonus games and it speaks volumes about how healthily warped human nature can be, and in the process knocks any number of sterile and overblown Gran Turismos into a cocked hat. Play this and discover what real gaming should be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Destruction Derby but Better, 27 Dec 2004
Got this game for Christmas because i thought it was just the sort of game i would enjoy because i loved the destruction derby games on the ps1. This is amazing. The the damage and physics is almost perfect. the cheaper smaller cars get bashed in the most. all the tracks and cars are fully destructable for example on one bit there is a water tower on the side of the track and if you hit one of its legs it can fall on your opponents and crush them

If you have a high speed crash your driver flies throught the windcsreen into the action.
There are also minigames where your driver gets involved like high jump when you hits the ramp and press the eject button and see how high he goes then he falls with a crunch.

Minigames include
Long jump
High jump
Darts + more

In career mode you buy a car and you can upgrade the Engine, Exaust, Drivetrain, Tyres and Chassis, to make it faster and stronger

Here are some details from the back of the box

- 46 DESTRUCTABLE TRACKS

- 6 DEATH DEFYING MINIGAMES

- 6 DESTRUCTION BOWLS AND DIRT TRACKS

- SEND DRIVERS FLYING THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN INTO THE MAYHEM

- 2-PLAYER SPLIT SCREEN ACTION

My Ratings from the short time i have been on it are:

Graphics 9/10
Realism 9.5/10
Damage 10/10
Enjoyment 10/10
Lifespan 7/10 ( Doesnt seem like it will be too hard to complete but the sort of game you could still play if you do )

Overall 9/10

Thanks for taking time to read my review and i hope it is a help to :-)
