Arent they two totally different games? Flatout is like derbies and killing the driver and a bunch of mini games when NFS:MW is like tuner cars and city drving and cool add ons to your car.

Yea, they're 2 completely different styles of games. The only similarity is that there are cars involved. IMO, NFS:MW is alot better. Flatout 2 is too cheesy for me, fun though

i like flatout 2 for its realistic physics and its fast loading times, also it is vastly improved from teh first flatout game.

Yea, the physics are very good on it. I never played the original, so i can't compare the two.

Didn't flatout 1 need a 3rd party tool to play multiplayer? *laugh*

I've only breifly played Flat Out 2, but I loved the demo for the first. I own NFS MW, and I love that game too. However, as other's said, they are two totally different games. It's hard to really compare the two.
