The awful FlatOut made us pine for ZX Spectrum paddles - its controls are that painfully imprecise. [Feb 2011, p.69]

Because of this game I bought Flatout3 Chaos and Destruction for the PC. I hope a sequel of Flatout Wii will be released soon on the Wii, but then with more Stunt levels. There are not much good racing games on the Wii. So come on Zoo and Team6, make me happy again!

Best-looking Wii racing game!
It's amazing how Team6 were able to make wii racing game with best graphics!
What is even more - it can be played in 2-player splitscreen.
Can't say it is ideal - I would add some freeplay and racing in post-apocalyptic cities (NY or LA)
It's a shame new NFS for Wii costs twice as much and is nowhere good as this game.
Let's hope EA will trust next NFS on WII to Team6:)

Its an average racing destruction game. I had a lot of fun playing this game, but I played better racing games before.

Its mediocre at best. I thought this would be a Burnout clone or something, I was wrong. The cars, if at a relatively high speed, lose all sense of control. There isn't much to the game: no real story, limited track/cars and a very simple game. I would personally stay away unless its dirt cheap.

Let me start by saying FlatOut on Wii is pretty much as bad as people made it out to be. They may have slightly exaggerated the problems, but only by a very little bit. Also this game is FlatOut in name only (for the most part) and they even get that wrong by calling it Flatout instead of FlatOut (with a capital O, but that’s a Nitpick), this is not at all the one released in 2004/2005. First thing I noticed was just how blurry the game was. Like very, very blurry for a game that was released in 2010. The words were also hard to read because they were so small and also somewhat blurry. As for the gameplay, the controls were not very good. To be fair, I had to use a Wiimote with the motion controls, as there’s no option for nunchucks or GameCube controllers and I didn’t have a Classic controller when I played the game. So I’m sure control-wise, I would’ve had a better time with a normal type controller, but that still wouldn’t have saved the game. The physics aren’t the best when crashing into things. Vehicles can be very sensitive and fly all over the place (which admittedly can be funny to watch) and you can lose a lot of health that way. There’s also a severe lack of tracks in the game. Starting out, you technically only get two race tracks to play on. They present it as four, but the other two are just reversed versions of those tracks. It’s not too hard to unlock the other tracks and doesn’t take that long, but you basically only get about six racing tracks total in the game, with all of them having reversed versions as well. It doesn’t help that most of the tracks look kind of samey. The Stunt and Demolition Derby (or Battle Arena, as it’s called in this game) modes are probably the most FlatOut parts of the game But of course they screwed that up too. In the racing mode, there are no drivers. Just the cars. But they do appear in Stunt mode. Starting out, you can only play one Stunt; Bullseye. There are three (possibly seven with Nightmare theme) other unlockable stunt mini games. I didn’t unlock any of them, but if they play anything like Bullseye in this game, then I wouldn’t want to play them anyway. No matter what I tried, I could not reach the target at all. In Battle Arena mode, there’s just one map. Like just one, at least starting out, but I didn’t see any other unlockable maps. And this is probably the best mode in the game, but it’s still not all that fun to play, especially compared to previous FlatOut games. The only mode unique to this game is Car Basher. This is where you bash a car with a weapon of your choice. This is actually funny to play, but only for about a few minutes, as the charm wears off fast. This game does have multiplayer, but I never tried it. Though at this point, I’m sure you know I would not recommend it if it plays like the rest of the game. So yeah, I did not like this game and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone unless you’re just trying to collect everything in the FlatOut franchise. Many people consider FlatOut 3 to be the worst game in the series and one of the worst games of all time. I agree it is a bad game, but at least FO3 is fun to play because of how bad it is. This one is so bad, it’s just bad, it’s just FlatOut bad.

There's absolutely no reason for you to get this game, the gameplay is mediocre with imprecise controls and no story mode whatsoever. The graphics on the main screen look awful and in the game it's all blurry, and the fact that wii do not support HD this makes it horrible

Summary The standard FlatOut concept: Race, destroy and either finish first, or make sure you're the last one standing (or: driving). Violent, agressive racing will take place in various locations and themes, such as the financial district, the industrial port and a dusty and an old but atmospheric town somewhere in southern-europe.
