Nobody Hyped about Twisted Metal ??

whats wrong with you:P

If you haven't played a Twisted Metal game I can tell you right now ..... its gonna be action packed, fast paced, strategy driven multiplayer goodness.

gameplay (watch in HD)

other than a few glitches it looks so awesome. Im a big TM fan so I can not wait for this game.

ps - my reaction to Jaffe announcing TM

I guess you weren't on GS during E3 week. :roll:ExoticAnimal

wish i cared, other than the online matches, the game looked dated. I know the video was early stuff, It just looked like it has terrible maps, graphically wasn't impressed, it looked very plain.

Again it was early, i'll judge on what i see towards it's release date.

The fact that Jaffe said that it's the Twisted Metal he always wanted to make has me excited, on principle alone.. but they haven't shown anything to warrant that. We'll see.

It's more of a product of the genre than anything else - the car combat game is more or less dead, and I'm curious what they plan on doing to get players back into it. From what I've seen so far, they're not doing much else other than remaking thelast Twisted Metal with better graphics, which isn't really the right route.DJ_Lae

This. I totally got bashed when I said the game was outdated.

I for one am excited to get Twisted Metal. It is David Jaffe's 1st outing on the PS3...that alone is epic...

Keep in mind guys...this game is like a year off or so. Lots of work yet to be done on this...

The original game in the franchise was one of the two games which sold me on a Playstation over my Genesis. When I saw that game, all of my Mad Max fantasies had come true. And then they released that second game and hit perfection. Balance, secrets, graphics, they really reached the acme of the genre with that game.

All the rest which have come since that second game were at best, playable. None of those games ever hit the raw edge of the first one or the thumb-murderinggenius of the second, and so for that, let's just say that I'm cautious about getting excited. I still have love in my heart because of those first two games, but the last few tastes have been just OK or even down-right bad... you gotta admit.

Well, you don't have to... I didn't mean to couch it that way... if you really liked #3, "Black", or "Head-On" then that's cool and I don't mean to condemn them at all. I had a copy of "Black" - It just missed a certain something in the sauce, so the dish wasn't as magical for me so I lost steam halfway through it. Ya dig?

:D

I'm cool with them giving it another try, and perhaps it'll own some ground like the old days. I wouldn't say that Vehicular Combat is dead, but it's sleeping pretty soundly... out cold, drunk maybe.

Perhaps they'll sober it up and make it mean again. Let's all hope!

I'm excited about it.

I don't get how people say it looks dated. It looks unfinished, because it has a long time to go before it's release. I'm sure by the time of it's release it will look fantastic and there will be plenty of new stuff being offered. Two indications: Sweet Tooth in the menu section looked great and the new Nuke game mode looked to be awesome and a mode I'll be spending hours with.

Time will tell, but it's one of my most anticipated games for now.

i too am a bit surprised that there hasn't been a bigger reaction... still, i myself will be buying this game FOR SURE!!! of course, since its still a ways off, the public has plenty of time to get into it.

I'm pumped for it. my hopes were lost for awhile but now i can't wait.

Im not extremely hyped, but it seems like it will be pretty cool, I remember playing a TM game a while ago and it being pretty fun, I might check it out when it comes out

It doesn't look impressive really. They're gonna have to pull off something pretty sweet for me to pick it up I think...

Personally, I'm more hyped for the dancing game for Kinect than Twisted Metal.

i am...cant go wrong with a classic its a day one for me.

Keep in mind guys...this game is like a year off or so. Lots of work yet to be done on this...

So far I'm not too hyped, but I'm going to keep an open mind and hope for the best :) I used to love Vigilante 8 back in the day and Twisted Metal seems pretty similar.

I saw it on the day the sony press conference came on at E3. It looked ok but I don't really care about playing online. And that was it's main selling feature.

Comon GIVE US A BETA !!!!mffmiguel

Doesn't interest me one bit.

I am not hyped because the game is a year or more away from release. I don't see how this game has bad graphics. The level looked huge and probably is. Twisted Metal is known for having big levels so they are not going to have the smaller details on every object because your going to blow it up anyway. The graphics remind of warhawk only quite a bit better. Bigger maps come at the cost of graphics plain and simple. The gameplay looks the same as the old games because it is an old franchise. People wanted them to go back to gameplay of the fist couple of games. TM 2 is regarded as the best twisted metal game to this day and that game came out in 96. The third one tried to make the game have more depth and while still fun, it took away a little bit from the overall concept of the game. Blowing switches or whatever to remove the shield from the final boss was dumb. The secret weapons were cool but once again I don't want to have to sit there and shoot switches in order to unlock the area. The secret weapon should be hard to get to but it shouldn't require you to avoid car combat in order to get it.

The gameplay looked fast and simple, which is what TW has always been known for.
