Physics engine+ Arcade Racer=Horrible
User Rating: 3.5 | FlatOut: Head On PSP
This game is horrible compared to Burnout for the simple reason that a physics engine is no place for an arcade racer. First off if you want to get anywhere in this game, you are limited to using the trucks, and that makes the game boring as hell. You can't use any RWD cars, which are the cooler looking cars, or else the rubberband AI (And I swear there's rubberband physics involved) will PIT maneuver you out of the competition. They'll get nitro for doing nothing and ram your rear!
The car handling is either oversteer or understeer.
The Upgrade system is broken: all levels should be available to all cars. No Matter What.
Plus the people are too pretty, demolition drivers need to be ugly scarred rednecks.
They either need to tone down the physics engine, allow for tuning the cars, or change to a more simulation type game. I don't care who is a "Flatout King," I can't enjoy it anymore. If I can fly out the car and survive, I need better handling
