    Fast, fun, and tasteless, but too many misfires to make it a winner. [Christmas 2004, p.108]

    This is a game that’s as riotously entertaining as it is viciously random... It’s gleeful automobile slapstick, but not for anyone who values skill and achievement more than taking a wrecking ball to their opponents’ racing lines. [Dec 2005, p.114]
  3. 70
    Multiplayer is the business and the bonus modes will be played for months to come. Too bad full online isn't in this PC version.
  4. Play Magazine

    Upgrades on the variety of cars gradually up the speeds and intensity. [Aug 2005, p.50]
  5. 60
    Like a miniature fashion model: short, quite pretty, and as insubstantial as it is fun.
  6. 60
    FlatOut basically feels like a slightly more frustrating successor to the original "Destruction Derby" series on the PlayStation 1 (well, the first two games).
  7. 60
    A respectable weekend time-waster. It's got enough going on to fill a late night or two, and not so much that many gamers will pine for it when it's gone.
