Stilton: I think they fell into the common trap of concentrating too much on the visuals. There is a considerable graphic improvement in the second game, but I would've liked to see them take the mad humour of the first one a bit further. It often happens that follow up games/films/tv series aren't as good as the first. Its a lack of focus and market pressure, I suppose.
Yes that's a common problem. Especially market pressure might be an important factor..which often results in streamlining games which don't need that kind of treatment
...it's unfortunate that the series went downhill after Flatout 1 and i doubt we're gonna sea another one after the Flatout 3 disaster...

Alright. This time for real. ;)
Good night everyone.
