I think they canned the Twisted Metal reboot? Or maybe that was whatever live service version they were doing.

 

[Dacvak]

I never saw season 1, will I understand the plot?

Edit: I assumed this was for a live service game and was making a joke… I'm not sure what's a dumber idea, a live service game, or an actual TV show about twisted metal.

 

[Twinblade]

Can't wait.

 

[Markio128]

I enjoyed season one way more than I expected. Fun show.

If it helps set expectations, imagine more Twisted Metal 3 and 4 (also Head-on and Small Brawl) in terms of the show's zanyness, rather than the brooding/dark Twisted Metal Black (and to a lesser extent, 1).

Yup live service game in development got canned with a bunch of over service games. It sounded like dog shit anyway. Talk of leaving the car lol.

 

[salva]

Where the fuck is a new Twisted Metal game?! Sony doing everything but making games.

Oh wait, let's release a new update for TLOU instead

 

[Fermbiz]

First season had me hooked. Can't wait!

One of the dozen-ish games they cancelled in the last year or so. Quite why they cancelled twisted metal and kept concord and fairgames I have no idea.

 

[Unknown?]

Trailer looks good, can only hope they take another crack at a game and get Jaffe/Campbell back in.

 

[Unknown?]

Just realized they brought our man Sweet Tooth back! Just like I had advocated before and they took my idea of a season 2.

Jun 30, 2025

What do you think Gaf mods/community? Sweet tooth was really cool, even if being just a bit over-the-top, and I always got a lot of amusement out of his crazy antics. He was downright hilarious at times too!


We either bring him back or lose a lot of good discussion here. Now we could do it in a few different ways. I was thinking in a season 2 TV show or another Twisted Metal game. Perhaps in another Sony fighter with his own story? How would you like to see a return of one of Sony's oldest icons?

Very cool. Season 1 was great.

 

[//DEVIL//]

out of all the games they canned, they picked a one that has an original idea for Battle royal cars that would have been a huge seller if it was done right.

and a twisted metal too. where they have a TV show AND its one of the pillars that made the PlayStation what it is.

Amazing stuff from Sony management.

 

[Revolutionary]

Like most people, I expected the first season to be garbage but it was surprisingly enjoyable. Second season looks like it's going to be fun as well

 

[bitbydeath]

I'm going to need a behind the scenes on how they created this.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

The best game to TV show along with Fallout.

Looking forward to season 2 a lot and this is coming from someone that never played any Twisted Metal game just watched all the cutscenes from all the Twisted Metal games.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Twisted metal season 1 felt ordinary in a good way I enjoyed it

 

[MiguelItUp]

Loved the first season, can't wait for this one. Especially since the tournament is actually starting. I love it.

 

[lughnasadh123]

Tried a few days ago to watch the first season and couldn't make it past 10 minutes.

That is the great thing about entertainment media. Not everything is made for everyone. I really liked the first season much more than I expected I would. Looking forward to season 2.

I'm guessing they wasn't putting enough love into it then the show blew up bigger than they thought & whatever they had coming wasn't good enough & probably would have brought down the value lol

 

[DrFigs]

First season was pretty good

 

[TidusYuna]

Hyped for Season 2. Hopefully we get a new game out of it.

 

[MrCunningham]

I remember watching Season 1 on some streaming service. Amazon, or Crave? I forgot. Season 1 was decent. The story threads between the main characters were a 'whatever' to me. I wish there were more car combat scenes. But the show probably didn't have enough of a budget to do more. It seems like a good representation of the game franchise overall.

I'm pretty sure that David Jaffee gave season 1 a thumbs up overall. He was overall pleased with how the adaption turned out. I know he talked about it a few times on his youtube channel.

 

[vdb]

Looking forward to this. The first season was decent.

They could do with doing a new game.

It should be a crime how much little attention this show gets compared to rubbish like The Last of Us.

 

[Billbofet]

So odd to have a show, that is solid, based off a videogame that hasn't had a new entry in over a decade. Bring it on!!! Hoping for a Jumping Flash series if all goes well.

 

[March Climber]

Part of it is because of the streaming service it's on.

Peacock might as well be considered a death sentence for content, and I say that as a fan of some of the content they offer.

Yah, I know people who would have played it and I'd have prob given it a go, despite not really playing much online. The one I'd have def played was last of us . Oh well.

Just so much wasted time and talent.

That's a given. Trust me, I went in wanting to like it.

Like most game to movie or TV show things, the original IP is just a loose scaffold for the story. I watched this on a whim and it was pretty fun. But I have a similar question, If I forgot almost all details of S1, will S2 still be fun?

 

[Toots]

This tv show made me like Anthony Mackie

 

[BennyBlanco]

I was surprised how much I enjoyed s1. I still wanna smooch Neve Campbell too.

From memory everything was tied up, leading straight into season 2, the TM tourny.

The actor they picked for Calypso is amazingly on point, great casting!

 

[Twinblade]

Mayhem looks alot like Krista.

 

[MrCunningham]

Sweet Tooth was in season 1

Yeah, I am a little confused by that post. Sweet Tooth was like a main supporting character in season 1. Yeah of course he is going to be in season two. Sweet Tooth is basically the mascot for the entire series.

The actor they picked for Calypso is amazingly on point, great casting!

This is four months old, but it is still worth posting. It is David Jaffe's thoughts on the new trailer. David Jaffe one of the creators of Twisted Metal, obviously. It is cool to see people who created the franchise onboard with the TV series.
