The game itself probably deserves a full 9, but it loses a point for shoving Games for Windows Live down our throats.Summary Specifications User reviews (0) Collections (1) News Forum Neither compares to how perfectly the game runs with the steering wheel it isn't supposed to support. I've tried it also with a Thrustmaster HOTAS, but aside from the stick and throttle being more comfortable, I didn't have better control over the car than with the gamepad. In fact, it's the game that I've found the easiest to set up with various controller devices. Also, you may read in the specs that 'XBOX 360 Controller is preset and cannot be re-configured regarding the control options.' That's true, but if you have another type of controller that emulates the XBox 360 controller, like the Logitech Rumble Gamepad, you have complete control over what every button does. The tension is just right and it really feels like driving at high speeds. 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. I don't dislike games like NFS or Grid, but sometimes the excessive Tastes great! Less filling! FlatOut:UC put the fun back into racing games. Tastes great! Less filling! FlatOut:UC put the fun back into racing games. I urge any potential buyers to bear in mind that this is an ARCADE racing game, and to not make the mistake of buying this as a serious simulator. Just accept that you made a mistake in your purchase by a misjudgement of your own prefered genre and move on- the price you paid for this masterpeice isn't enough to justify such misplaced rage. If the game isn't your type, that doesn't make it bad. If you're not, then you should A) stick to sims like GRID until you are prepared to have fun with video games and B) do NOT give this game a poor review because it's too good for your pretention.

If you can take losing with a smile, if you are a person who appreciates the thrill of high-speed crashes and the beauty of variable-mesh twisted carframes, if you have fast reflexes and know your limits, then you can have the time of your life with this game. This game exceeds it's audience and bounds in greatness- and is the worse off for it. A game ahead of it's time, styled after a genre long-dead, running too well on merely moderate systems. The game's lightning-fast engine works against it in this way, as the all-too important gameplay tips are featured on the loading screens, which are subverted in an instant.

In keeping with the difficulty level of the arcade games this game styles itself after, however, the game isolates new players, who will quickly become frustrated with the overintelligent AI. It's like a new-age arcade racer gone wild. Gameplay is great and innovative, multiplayer is incredibly comprehensive and intuitive for all it's flexibility and the bonus modes make great use of the game's oh-so-smooth graphics engine in a flamboyantly hilarious and arcade-like manner. Sturdy and bug-free, runs amazingly well, loads fast and looks beautiful on a computer with an 8-year-old motherboard.
