OVERVIEW

Twisted Metal, the longest running exclusive franchise in PlayStation history and the multi-million selling series is now back, exclusively on the PS3 system. David Jaffe and Scott Campbell, co-founders of Eat Sleep Play and the original creative team behind Twisted Metal, bring back the dark humor, fast-action gameplay and a world of crazy cars, and weapons and destruction.

With four factions battling for control, players step into the combat boots of a twisted disciple in a high octane, highly destructible world. Players fight for the prize of one wish fulfilled by the stylishly evil Calypso, the mastermind behind the Twisted Metal tournament. Disciples strategically dismantle opponents in vehicles loaded with weapons of Twisted destruction.

With a robust online system, players unleash destruction with up to 16 players through PlayStation Network and battle through a variety of favorite and new game modes.

Twisted Metal carved out its own unique gaming genre. No other title has Twisted Metal’s perfect mix of dark humor and personality along with massive destruction in a distinctive atmosphere and vehicles and weapons that act as extensions of each character.

STORYLINE

He returns again to host the ultimate contest of skill and destruction. Contestants have been chosen to compete and, should they emerge victorious, win whatever prize their heart desires.

Nope!

[Euribo]

YES!! It's been long rumored that Jaffe would announce a new Twisted Metal at e3, so glad it came true. Definite day 1 buy for me.

[Snake_XRS]

DAMN!!!! I knew it was coming but this is so badass

[RAZGRIZ-1]

I'm really excited for the new Twisted Metal as well! I spent hours and hours playing Twisted Metal 4 back in the day. I love the aerial combat. It really adds a new level of diversity.

I've been a fan of the TM series, so it was nice to finally hear a new one was being made.

The first minute or so of that video is terrible.

Gameplay wise, I'm not sure what to think of the flying bits (like the helicopter), but assume/hope those are some sort of killstreak bonus thing (like in CoD), in which case it'd be ok.

The destructible environments is pretty cool, but unless everything that seems destructible in real life is so in the game, it will be frustrating smashing into a wall that you thought was going to break.

Anyhow, looking forward to it.

They have added aerial vehicles. The helicopters are selectable vehicles.

[Psybits]

woot
i'm too excited for words

[AranhaHunter]

The game looks superb. Helicopters too

[BDestroyer8418]

Can't wait this looks awesome. The whole reason why I got a PS3 a little late to the party but it looks like it was worth the wait.

Twisted Metal E3 Super Boss Battle

Epic Boss battle driving around a winding mountain edge. Reminds me of the epic boss battles from God of War that Jaffe created.

He also states that there will be SEVEN stages to this boss fight and will make you feel like you've just been in a 12 round fight with a heavyweight boxer. Wow.

Make sure you watch it in HD.

[Shin-Ra]

That smoke. Gotta love that Santa Monica Studio tech.

[MrNathanDrake]

Is it Santa Monica studio tech?

I was under the impression they either built their own tech, or used WarHawk's engine.

[phranctoast]

I believe they did use Warhawks engine.

Incognito (now Lightbox) and Santa Monica are very close.

[Guido1977]

Cant wait my b-day is the 12th so guess what ill be getting. I still have twisted metal black but cant play it any more since my orignal ps3 died on me and I had to get a boring slim model which sucks.

[Grim Reaper]

ide rather have twisted metal black: online...
