The career is made up of three classes, two of which need to be unlocked. You earn money for finishing in the top three positions and that money can be spent on new vehicles or upgrades to your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain, exhaust, suspension, tires, and body.

#Flatout 4 pcreview install#
There is a multiplayer component which I didn’t get the chance to try and I did attempt to install the FOV3 mod which offers an alternative way to play online, among other things, but was unable to get it running. I remember launching your driver out of the windshield being the standout gimmick but I think the physics is what really makes FlatOut special.įlatOut contains multiple game modes including a Career mode which is probably where you will to spend a majority of your single player time. For this review I played the PC version and used ThirteenAG’s widescreen fix to run the game in a proper widescreen resolution. Developed by Bugbear Entertainment and published by Empire Interactive, FlatOut was released for PC, PlayStation 2, and Xbox in July, 2005. I think that’s what attracted me to FlatOut. I was big into Counter-Strike: Source back then and was fascinated with the physics and ragdoll stuff in games. I was never the biggest racing fan, especially when I was younger, but when I first saw a video of FlatOut, I wanted it.
