A game with some concepts wrong...
Let me elaborate, how cool it sounds to race in cars that are almost fully destructible, tracks having LOTS of debris and 7 other opponents for you to throw your car at? Sound fairly nice right? We'll I thought it too BUT that's not what really happens... You know when you're nailing that perfect turn at the last corner of a race? The last turn that will get you that last and most difficult trophy of a racing game you've been playing for weeks? The trophy that will finally end the game and give you the sensation of job well done?
Well imagine at the middle of that turn a box... better yet, 50 boxes with incredible details and physics that get's out of track and crash... do you get the picture?
That's what is really annoying about Flatout 2, all these high detailed/physics-true debris are only good to spoil your race, thus, having you restart ALL OVER AGAIN!!! I've lost count of how many times I restarted a race because of this situation and I can tell... IT'S SOOOO ANNOYING!!!
Don't get me wrong, this game has lots of potential but the concept is all wrong, instead of making racing game (with about 30 championships with countless races of same old tracks) they should've had used all those good graphics/physics/destruction-details to create the most amazing car-destruction game and not just one more "Burnout" copy. What I'm trying to say is why the hell make a racing game so annoying that, instead of destroying everything in your path, you have to be careful not to hit too much stuff or your car will spin around like crazy, making you lose the race? If you're going to make a game this strong in detail and destruction then make it so our only worry is to DESTROY!!! IMHO they could have made less racing tracks and explored much more the carnage/humor from the battles of 8 cars of the stunt games.
The rest of the game is good, nice soundtracks and all, but it's CORE is wrong... I hope they see that and make a sequel worthy of all those amazing crashes...
PS: I HATE THOSE *¨$%@$#$ BOXES!!! =D
