“Twisted Metal” isn't even my most anticipated game of the week. It deserves a big PS3 release, so I'm glad that's finally happening. It's probably the nostalgia talking, but I'm really excited to see how this latest “Twisted Metal” pans out after so many years away from the franchise. Highly destructible environments and an assortment of power-ups keep things unpredictable. The new “Twisted Metal” packs in more than a dozen vehicles and just as many battlegrounds, as you fight through a story mode (that involves you competing to win the Twisted Metal Tournament) or in online matches that support up to 16 players. Not every game lets you get behind the wheel of bizarre, heavily armed vehicles and encourages you to unleash your inner lunatic. If you enjoy shooters and somehow never tried the series, you're missing out. What unfortunate timing.įirst up is the rebirth of “Twisted Metal” (PS3 rated Mature), the demented and popular car combat franchise that dates to the original PlayStation. Also, a lot of smoke and fire emanating from a fresh batch of violent video games.
