It's Twisted Metal, it can't be bad.

gameseveryday5777d ago

Not necessarily. Games can be good or bad. But David Jaffe is too good to mess this up.

HorsePowerr5777d ago (Edited 5777d ago )

I'm confused.

- Ghost of Sparta -5776d ago

The only real complaint I have about it is the T rating. Honestly, it's enough to put me off from buying it. I loved Twisted Metal Black for how mature it was and now they're aiming this one at kids? Sorry Jaffe, but you can go fuck yourself.

Shmotz5776d ago

Which is why Black was the first and only TM ti get an M rating while the rest of the series was T.

Good job.

Cevapi885776d ago

Jaffe said that while Black was the best rated TM game in the series, the M rating made it the least sold out of the series as well...that was the main reason behind the T rating, they want as many players to be able to enjoy the game, especially online because he loves Team Play and strategy between gamers...and another thing is, if you saw the video at Comic Con, the live action pieces looked really dark, plus Sweet Tooth still looks menacing...i like the look of it, i cant wait for 2011

Blaze9295776d ago (Edited 5776d ago )

I agree with Ghost of Sparta about this games T rated goal. TM Black was the best Twisted Metal ever critically and in my opinion. It's been years since TM Black came out and those who grew up on TM...GREW UP!

So you have to wonder who this game is being made for: fans or a new age of gamers? I'd rather have an M rated Twisted Metal than some bright colored T rated TM.

I mean you take the highest critically acclaimed TM game and completely go in the opposite direction so the game can sell more copies? Blow to the fans. Or me at least.

As Ghost said; Jaffe can go fuck himself....if this is even Jaffe's idea to make it Teen. Maybe it's sony's.

FwanK5776d ago (Edited 5776d ago )

Twisted Metal 2 had T Rating and is the best Twisted Metal ever made...

Megaton5776d ago

Like Schmotz said, every entry in the series but Black was rated T. I think everyone who "grew up playing TM" was playing it years before Black came along. Everyone I know ranks TM2 as the best in the series.

As much as I played it, Twisted Metal III definitely was the worst of the series.

liveActionLeveler5776d ago

3 and 4 are hated so much, but I love them! and black, and head on, and hopefully this too!

DuneBuggy5776d ago

LOl..You obviously never played Twisted Metal III Shubhankar.
But Jaffe wasnt involved in it.

Persistantthug5776d ago

Many of them seem to really be "in tune" to their fans.

Maybe it just seems that way, but it's something that seems noticeable.

DuneBuggy5776d ago

You call making me wait almost a DECADE for another installment of metal mashing mayhem, being "in tune with their fans"?

Persistantthug5776d ago

But keep in mind,

I said the DEVELOPERS Sony Employs seem to be "in tune"....not necessarily Sony themselves.

For all intents and purposes, Sony is just the "pimp", in a manner of speaking.

However, Sony's women are very hot and caring....so Sony really knows how to pick em. lol

JasonXE5776d ago

so is this still like, a $59.99 title? The more this guy reveals information about this game the more it seems like this could and probably should be just a downloadable $39.99 game at most.

inception1235776d ago (Edited 5776d ago )

1. 3 stories with multiple ending for each one(more then every game except heavy rain this gen)

2. 2 to 4 player split screen on and offline

3. 16 player online with lots of game modes

that is more then you get with most games but i guess when you don't know what you're talking about it is hard to miss.

webeblazing5776d ago

yea u see that alot on here when it comes to ps3 games

get em boys

alphakennybody5776d ago

me thing people nag too much. He was so excited to talk about the game during his panel, I'm sure this game will be great.

MariaHelFutura5776d ago

Concerns? This game has Split-screen online. My concerns have been dealt with.

xYLeinen5776d ago

This whole communication with developers and fans are getting out of hand. Let the developers make their game. If anyone know what they are doing it's them and not necessarily the fan base. I'm sure fans got a bunch of bright and very good ideas but it's not your job in the end to implement those ideas and make the game.

It's hard to be a fan and not express concerns and thoughts on upcoming titles, but in this particular scenario, it's Jaffe who's making the game. Do you really need to come with a bunch of concerns at all?

Developers learn a lot more from their previous games rather than the people playing the games. If he says it's gonna be the best TM ever made I believe simply believe his word and stop "expressing to much concern". And for the haters, that's NOT being ignorant, it's having faith in the developers.

Wow cyberpunk is a great pick up. If you haven’t played it you should definitely give it a try

Christopher313d ago

Banishers was dragged down by the need to go back to old areas multiple times.

GhostScholar314d ago

Also if you bought it at launch and couldn’t deal with all the bugs it’s a totally different game now

stupidusername314d ago

Played it on release and thought it was a mess. But I'm currently playing it again now on both PS5 and Switch 2 with cross save progression, and it's really different to how I remember it. Really enjoying it now, and it's really polished and immersive.

darthv72314d ago

Despite owning the 2077 One X console and the steelbook edition of the game... i still have never played it. I may actually give 2077 a try (via the portal) as there has been so much talk about it again, thanks to SW2 and now this comparison vid from DF. https://youtu.be/SvGQik3m6a...

dveio314d ago (Edited 314d ago )

I think it's an okay decision or happening.

iirc, wasn't there even a new and probably last update coming soon announced recently?

I've never played 2077, neither. (I am still a bit mad about their ... well, anyway.)

But I think it can't get better to play that game, or any game for that matter, in a 100% complete, fully updated build.

DivineHand125314d ago

Cyberpunk and Risk of rain 2 are the best of the bunch. Not a bad month if you are one of the few that haven't played those games.

yeastori314d ago

Cyberpunk is probably one of the best games I've ever played, even when it came out with all the bugs and glitches and broken gameplay on consoles, I still loved it at its core because the world was exactly what I wanted in a dystopian vision of the real future and the story was actually well done and compelling. With the fixes and then Phantom Liberty I just knew that this game could've been GOTY winner if it hadn't been released too early and released on PS5. XBX and two years later.

shinXseijuro314d ago

Might give cyberpunk a chance now that the game redeemed itself . Is it only the basic game or with the newer content ?

xHeavYx314d ago

According to the article, it's just the base game, but the DLC will be 30% off

Tacoboto597d ago

TM3 is my favorite but I'll take what they bring out gladly. Fun times back in the day and great soundtracks

Cacabunga596d ago

Last one on ps4 wasn’t good at all.
Hoping for some good reboot or remake of the first 3

Dagexon596d ago

You mean the one on ps3?

Cacabunga595d ago

Yes i do, thanks! I realized too late couldn’t edit

badboyz09596d ago (Edited 596d ago )

Lego 2K Drive features an exciting mode called Brick Brawl, inspired by Twisted Metal. Players can create, share, and upload various cars, including ones like Sweet Tooth. The game boasts thousands of custom cars, ranging from the Batmobile to the Sweet Tooth ice cream truck.

InUrFoxHole596d ago

Never understood the like for the series. Not my bag but I know a lot of gamers are clamoring for a new game and liked the TV. Series

TiredGamer596d ago (Edited 596d ago )

TM1 and 2 are time period classics. They were a bit rough, ugly, and grungy, but they felt right during the time period they were released and they scratched that early console “death match” itch before FPS games would completely swallow that market.

Many great memories with friends playing couch co-op and 1v1. Short, and quick-and-dirty gameplay that we returned to over and over. I’d buy a remake or proper remastering of the first two games day one.

InUrFoxHole596d ago

Lol, nice! I remember having the tiger handheld or watch..

FinalFantasyFanatic595d ago

I played those so much as I kid, I bought the Twisted Metal games that were on PSN as Playstation Classics, wow, they feel clunky by today's standards, they could really use the remake/remaster treatment.

UltimateOwnage596d ago

Twisted Metal: Black is when the series really hit for me. I still love that game so much. It was kind of downhill for the series after that IMO. I'd love to see the series go back to its roots, but I don't hold out a lot of hope for David Jaffe coming back from where he is these days to oversee development of a competent sequel.

Snookies12596d ago

Black was the pinnacle in my opinion. I adored TM1 and TM2, for sure. But Black brought it to a whole new level of awesome.
