FlatOut is an adrenaline-inducing racing game with an exciting story line, spectacular crashes and a not-too-serious attitude in the best movie-like fashion. The thrill and terror of racing light, cheap and often very dented cars in constant close proximity and contact with other cars brings out the white-knuckled racing spirit as the player faces rapidly changing situations. In third-person mode, the player can rummage around the pit area eyeing out competitors cars, stop by at a bar for the latest gossip, fix and tune his car and interact with the other in-game characters, carrying out short missions related to the story behind the players character. Less
Rise of Nations is an historical real-time strategy game which combines the epic scope of traditional turn-based strategy (TBS) games with the fast-paced action of RTS games.

Pros Excellent graphics, great sound, lots of fun to play.
Cons You have to go to work sometime.

Flat Out is a racing game not too unlike many others in the past that have racers smashing into one another in a speed frenzy to the finish line. However, most other racing games leave out a lot of the details of car crashing. Older games like Need for Speed III didn't even show any damage after a... Read full review »

Pros Nice Graphics. Great interaction with the environment. Great multiplayer fun.
Cons Only good in small doses. Not too much fun single player unless you're a fanatic.
Recommended it? Yes

I am not usually known for my great passion for car racing games. The Need for Speed series never grabbed me and Colin McRae never really did much for me either, so it was a bit of a surprise when a friend introduced me to Flat Out and my initial reaction was a positive one.
