Project-Blu: Twisted Metal Review

Project-Blu writes: "Twisted Metal is more or less, the same game that it was 10 years ago in terms of feel, but at the same time, as a gamer, I have grown up a bit as well. But if there’s one thing to credit this game for, it firmly embraces its values and roots....the question is whether it packs enough nostalgia for you to fully embrace the series again."

It was great with the additional nostalgia! :)

I dont think it felt like the originals. For one, each vehicle had its own character back then. Now, you can only choose between 3 characters for all the cars! Kinda dumb and lazy if you ask me. The car physics did not feel the same to me, they didnt have that nice loose, but tight feeling they did 15 yrs ago. It was a letdown for me.

Car combat felt rushed and akward to me. I passed on this one and im a really huge fan of twisted metal1 and 2. This just did not feel the same. Felt a little more like twisted metal black to me.

Goes to show there are different tastes in gaming. I thought Twisted Metal: Black was plain incredible. I like the newest version, but Black is still the best to me.

godzilla725173d ago

Yea, to tell you the truth. Black felt better to me than this one. I think my all time favorite was TW2. Those ones that TW for the psp even felt like the old school ones too.

I liked calypsos voice in tm3 alot better.

chameleontongue5172d ago

i remember playing this on the PSone.. glad to see the clown on the ice cream truck is still included in the game

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

Christopher331d ago

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

GhostScholar331d ago

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

stupidusername331d 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.

darthv72332d 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...

dveio332d ago (Edited 332d 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.

DivineHand125332d 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.

yeastori331d 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.

shinXseijuro331d ago

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

xHeavYx331d ago

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

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

Cacabunga613d ago

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

Dagexon613d ago

You mean the one on ps3?

Cacabunga613d ago

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

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.

InUrFoxHole614d 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

TiredGamer614d ago (Edited 614d 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.

InUrFoxHole613d ago

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

FinalFantasyFanatic613d 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.

UltimateOwnage613d 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.

Snookies12613d 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.
