Flatout : UC ONLIIINE!

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

So, this was bought up in a little way last night, who would be up for a FlatOut UC BezzieMates Night Of Fun soon?

I have it, and quite a few people chimed in saying they had a copy. If you don't, it's less than a tenner and is a superb game, even at full price. At a tenner it's a steal.

And it'll keep the crashhappy away from Forza!

I've never actually tested the online modes of this game, but I've done all the mini games and stuff. Could be good.

Count me in. I've had this game as long as Ive had my xbox but due to Forza, I only ever played it once, so its about time I got my money's worth.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu May 15, 2008 23:32

Yeah, I'd be up for this as I've hardly played it since purchase.

myp · **Posted:** Thu May 15, 2008 23:34

Count me in.

I'd be up for that - the somewhat random nature of it could lead to much hilarity. And swearing.

I'm keen... I just need the game.

Anyone (or Lewiep) know where I can get it cheap? I'll take a look on my lunch break.

I'll check, I may have traded it in though, having got really pissed off with the single player game.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

OK, well I guess we should pick a day and time then. How is 9:30pm, Thursday for everyone?

Morte · **Posted:** Sat May 17, 2008 13:28

Oooo...I like the sound of this.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Sat May 17, 2008 13:59

Sounds good to me Sheepdude. You can be mother for this.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

Just a bump to remind everyone I'll be hosting a Flatout room at 9:30pm, tomorrow. Please excuse any fiddling about as I've never hosted a game, and certainly never hosted Flatout!

HMV are selling it in-store for a tenner if you still haven't got it.

myp · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 8:40

Ok, I'm going to try hard to make this, but can't guarantee it. Can we do bowling?

Runcle · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 9:37

is it possible to have two local players playing this at the same tim online?

myp · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 9:45

There's no split-screen of any kind in the game, unfortunately.

Runcle · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 9:51

I meant for the minigames, since there all single screen.

myp · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 9:53

Hmm, not sure.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

You can certainly have more than one player on minigames *offline* as it just cycles the pad round. *online*, I'm not sure.

And we can do whatever people want, the minigames are quick enough that we can fit in a few, and if people get bored waiting their turn or anything we've always got racing.

myp · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 21:30

So are we doing this or what?

CUS · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 21:36

I got this today. I'd be up for it, but I won't be around tonight, sorry.

Runcle · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 21:43

I thought we were playing this tomorrow, if its tonight I feel like crap and cant be arsed.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu May 22, 2008 22:26

THis is actually good fun!

No, it's not.

Yes it is. We played for three hours in the end. Great stuff.

This. Once I'd restarted the room and got rid of the silly gits who joined my room and then proceeded to tell me how to run it.

And then got annoyed when I set it how *I* wanted it, and complained about how they "didn't" know.

Twas mighty good fun, and with a full on 8 people (we had 4) it will be even better...

CUS · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 2:56

I'll be up for it tomorrow probably.

CUS · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 2:56

I will let you know if that probability varies considerably.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

I'll play. If you want/need me to host again, let me know, but there's an achievement for hosting and I've already got it. I'll share the love.

I WANT TO HEAR CONTROVERSIAL OPINIONS, NOT TWEETING BIRDS.

Thanks.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 9:40

I might pick this up and see what it is like. If it involves crashing then I will be better at it than I am at Forza!

myp · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 9:43

You couldn't be any worse.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 9:58

Tweet.

I got it, better be good or I'm going to bitchslap Dimrill.

We need a 'pimp' Dimlie.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

You can't play, Pundy. It's shit.

CUS · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 14:22

I'm playing this now in single-player. Cor, it's a bit good this... I mean, really fun and fast and all about DRIVING! Woo.

Another convert to the Temple of Flatout!

Curiosity · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 15:47

Is this available for precious few sponds on t'interweb, or need I go to an actual shop?

CUS · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 15:59

Yes.

Really good fun in singleplayer, and I imagine it will be still in multiplayer. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that Flatout UC > Burny Pee.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 16:05

That's because you're wrong headed.

Two quid more than HMV in store (i.e. £12).

I dunno whether or not I should get this. I already have Burnout Paradise and Sega Rally, so I don't really need it, do I?

Do I?

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

Yes, yes you do.

CUS · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 16:45

I would go so far as to say that it's (to an extent) the most Mario Kart-esque racer on the 360. That I have played.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2008 23:03

I bought this today in HMV for a tenner.

Will play it tomorrow and then join y'all for some Bezzie action.

Sheepeh · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2320

Sounds good, Mr Curio, assuming I'm about. At the last minute I found out I have DUTIES TO PERFORM regarding getting stuff set up for the Bank Hol Weekend, so my gaming was cut short before it even began tonight :'(

Scarysheep3000 · **Posted:** Sat May 24, 2008 0:09

I've bought it too, even though I swore I'd buy NO MORE GAMES this month. Erk.

myp · **Posted:** Sat May 24, 2008 0:11

Right, we MUST have an 8-player game of this SOON.
