Frans, indicating the green flag has been waved for
BugBear's racing game today, just as promised when
the game went gold
(
story). Here's a bit on the game:
Developed by Bugbear
Entertainment, FlatOut is one of the most spectacular Racing games you'll ever
see! Experience the drive of your life as you throw yourself around 45
challenging tracks in one of 16 fully upgradeable cars.
The track environment is subject to the all-encompassing physics system that is
unique to FlatOut, and is set to define a new standard in racing games. Fences
will shatter, tyre walls will explode, water tanks and barrels will fly across
the track into other cars. Every time you lose control, you will truly feel the
weight of the car as it collides with and destroys a barn, or smashes into the
pack of cars ahead of you, and with 40 deformable pieces on every car sparks are
guaranteed to fly!
Anything you destroy or alter stays a part of the race, increasing the carnage
to unprecedented levels! Broken fences, free rolling tyres, and even mangled
parts of cars are left scattered around the track, increasing the mayhem with
every lap.
