![]() Keyboard and controller support only." Well, I play it with a Logitech Driving Force steering wheel, and it works better than with any other game I have! The game plays very nicely with a game pad, but it's just amazing with the steering wheel. By the way, the official line is "Steering Wheels are not supported with Flatout Ultimate Carnage. FlatOut:UC doesn't have wild, uncontrollable drift unless you do something truly stupid, so the car reacts as it would if you were driving and not sitting behind an oversensitive plastic controller. ![]() Even with force feedback devices, you just don't get this kind of feedback in a racing game, so those other "realistic" games that make your car drift because you sneezed simulate the physics of the car, but they fail to simulate the reality of driving. You adjust before the car starts drifting. When you drive a real car, you feel the G-forces with your entire body and you feel the resistance on the tires right through the gas pedal and the steering wheel. Ironically, the reduced realism in FO:UC actually makes the game FEEL more realistic. I don't dislike games like NFS or Grid, but sometimes the excessive attempts at realism get in the way of just enjoying the race. When you drive a real car, you feel the G-forces with your entire body and you feel the resistance on Tastes great! Less filling!

But the game itself is really fun and it'll be the game I turn to when I want to race around and let off steam. The only potential negative I can say about this game is that it requires Windows Live which I have never liked. not simply because it doesn't offer as many changes as you expected from a previous version. For other reviewers out there, please rank this game where it belongs. It has capabilities of improving your rides, but the game is fun even with the base car. I haven't played earlier titles so I can't say if it's improved over them, but what I CAN say is that this game totally rocks if you're a casual gamer like me who just wants to race around various courses (cities, forests, canals, etc.) without having to learn all about car setups and stuff. FlatOut is a new game for me as I'm not typically into car games as much as FPS.

The soundtrack is dumb D-list nu-metal garbage, and the camera isn't always friendly, especially if you're driving one of the bigger vehicles which can block your view of the road. It's not without some flaws - This is clearly a port from a console and without a whole lot of work to fix it up for PC, but for the most part the leftovers from console are tolerable. The result is ridiculous, fast, destructive, and nothing at all like a serious driving game, and that's what's so appealing. Flatout is all about the ridiculous arcade type experience, incentivizing ridiculous ramp jumps, smashing scenery, and crashing into other players by giving a boost of nitro every time.
