Microsoft hasn't gotten a lot of PC game titles to support their Games For Windows Live features but Empire Interactive has just confirmed that their PC port of their Xbox 360 arcade racing game FlatOut Ultimate Carnage will join the rather exclusive list of PC titles to support the Live platform.
While it doesn't appear like the PC port will have cross-platform multiplayer with its Xbox 360 counterpart (only three games, Shadowrun, Lost Planet Colonies and Universe at War: Earth Assault have supported that feature) the PC version of the game will include support for all the other Live features including achievements. Empire plans to release the Bugbear developed FlatOut Ultimate Carnage for the PC in August in Europe. So far there's no word on a US release for the game.

I don't really care about the GfW logo but people should be aware that this is a direct port of the 360 version... which was nothing more than a direct port of Flatout 2 w/ improved graphics. If you own Flatout 2 you are paying for a patch that ups the graphics a bit. There is no new gameplay, tracks, or cars here. If you don't own Flatout 2... well then you suck. The game rocks.
