Flatout 2...the first thing that came to my mind when i heard the title was "just another lame game in which you have trash your opponent's car all of this some annoying control and expired graphics". After installing the game i was amazed that everything I thought about the game was not true. The game with all the options high looks simply amazing, it looks just like the way i imagine myself that a car game should look like, colourful cars very well designed. I've choosed a car (there three available categories, each one with FW,RW or AWD which is kinda nice because you could choose the one that fits your driving skills and upgrade it once you advance in your carrier), started playing and once again i got shocked by the way you could control your car without having the feeling that the car is not moving the way you want it to move. Another thing that surprised me in this game was the physics, you can trash your opponent car, your own car and even some of the things getting in your way like barrels, fences, trees and banners. After you get tired of racing you can have fun in the old Flatout way.....crash your car while making the driver jump higher or farther away, u can even play bowling, poker or shoot hoops with the driver. My biggest surprise was when i saw that the game is able to run at 1280x1024 with high details (including AA) on a 6600GT. My final words would be "A very well optimized game that can relief you of your everyday stress"
