Twisted Metal |OT| Don't Eat. Don't Sleep. Play
- Thread starter Pranay
- Start date
All this Twisted Metal talk brings back so many memories. I played various TMs and V8s to death. But that was over 10 years ago and I have this itch to play again.
Just $60... It isn't so much the cost, but rather by rule I only buy games when I can get them for $40 or with bonus $20 Amazon credit. It's just my way of keeping myself from buying a ton of gamesIn the past 5 years I think I only broke that rule once, for MGS4. Do I break it again this week...
If you need more convincing you do get Twisted Metal Black as a free download for buying first print copies. I would suggest picking it up at full price if that's something you would be interested in as PS2 downloads are usually 15-20 bucks.
A few songs I thought would be good for custom soundtrack lists...
Droptest - I'll Start a War (used in one of the early TM trailers, it's badass and so fitting)
The Roots - Here I Come
Slipknot - Wait and Bleed (keeps with that '90s music theme)
Scars on Broadway - They Say

Must resist. I think I will uninstall my flash player just to make it so.
EDIT: I would like to add [Bark at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne] to the playlist.

It would be cool if a future patch allowed players to create playlists out of the in-game soundtrack.

I shall be adding your recommendations to my Custom soundtrack.
Was it just me: when playing GTA III it was great to listen to classical opera music and cause chaos. Wonder how that will gell with TM >

Still not charging charge weapons and fully cooking remote bombs.
That map is amazing.

Oh I know, other than the super dark and grey (which isn't even bad depending who you ask). This is the first time I've really seen that map since E3 2010, he mainly stayed on the express way but you can also climb to the top of those skyscrapers (or close to the top).

I'm not even sure he realized you can fire certain weapons backwards. And he also wasn't using energy weapons.
The map was glorious.
Nailed it. Grasshopper of course would need one Special to be TM2 and one to be an upgraded Pit Viper Special from TM1.
But yes, Twister, Slam, Grasshopper, and Hammerhead are the top wants; in that order too.
This was posted on TMA today.

The first boss fight...now that's a fucking boss fight.
Most games just don't have good boss fights (if any) anymore. idk, but there's something fun about seeing an intimidating-as-fuck enemy and watching that life bar appear.

Yeah, he kept getting ahead of the enemy, turning around, and driving backwards when he could have fired backwards. This is one place where rear view could have come in handy, Jaffe
It's actually the first map they showed off when they revealed the game back at E3 2010. They showed off nuke mode in it, but this is the first time I've seen it actually played and it's awesome.

You think that's a fucking boss fight, you haven't seen anything yet. They just keep getting more and more intimidating.

Is this game getting any advertising like on tv and stuff?
Without spoiling anything is it just the three bosses or is there a 4th boss?

Dont think so. Guess Sony is prepping for Vita?
I will say though, that if this game had a theater mode, that could have made for some free advertising as people would upload gameplay videos to Youtube, who knows how popular that would have gotten
That said, word of mouth, nostalgia, and the demo should help push some decent sales.

Technically the first map they showed was Sun Springs in the debut trailer
Also, if you want to check out more of Diesel City,
http://www.giantbomb.com/e3-2010-undercover-jaffe/17-2799/
Keep in mind that's from a closed-door demo at E3 2010, but still some good stuff in there.

Technically it was Slaughterdale! :
uts on technical sunglasses::Does anyone remember Cel Damage? I was never a player of Twisted Metal but after playing the demo, I feel like it's a grittier version of Cel Damage (a lot less funny though). I'm looking forward to it because I'm pretending it's basically its spiritual sequel lol.
Actually...I think in the meantime, I might go play Cel Damage.

To break the mold a bit, my custom soundtrack will feature this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xacflWZig8c&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Yes, I just saw Tree of Life recently.

I have never heard of that. My car combat experience started with Carmageddon. That game was awesome

Used to play split-screen Cel Damage all the damn time. I think it was the first and only car combat game I played before the new TM.
It was a really unheard of Gamecube/Xbox game that came out early in their lifetimes. I thought it was crazy fun though.

Why is it named after a competing car combat games

Nice. Leader's soundtrack should play during matches.
I remember I was looking forward to that because it was riding the wave of Jet Grind Radio and was an Xbox exclusive (well, for a short while) and since I was a big TM fan, I loved Car Combat games.
I didn't really like it when I played it at a Best Buy. Something about it just felt "budget."

Man,
Couple edits.
some pretty heavy references to past games in Grimm's middle video: Crazy 8's boxing glove with syringes, Dollface's key to the mask, Sweet Tooth's vial, Twister's helmet, John Doe's (Roadkill) wallet, Raven's (Shadow) voodoo dolls, the black box in the lost endings from TM1 that Crimson Fury and Warthog are after?, not sure what the swords are from, Sweet Tooth's paper bag from TM1 lol, not sure about the bricks, Mike and Stu's (Hammerhead) plane tickets from TM2. Edit: apparently the swords are a reference to God of War. Another edit: the vial is actually probably a reference Yellow Jacket's lost ending from TM1. The bricks are most logically a reference to Mr. Slam's tower, but I may be forgetting an ending.
Couple edits.
Yeah, that was really awesome.
The swords are from God of War. Still not sure about the bricks. Mr Slam?
