My friend got this game before I did so obviously it was rubbish and the first Twisted Metal was way better but then I got it so I immediately pivoted and this game was amazing and the original Twisted Metal was for saddos and that's what being a thirteen year old is like.

This is the best Twisted Metal game. Perfect tone with perfect maps. That joker face and the laugh at the beginning of the game gave me nightmares when I was a kid. The control feels a little dated. But I wish we could get a re-release of this game with an online battle royale system.

This right here. This is the shit. And if you don't agree, I'm gonna come over there and twist your metal, twice.

Oh yea, this is that good stuff. All the wrinkles have been ironed out of the first game and a new world tour twist has been added, leading to iconic series imagery like the destruction of the Eiffel Tower and facing off against nine opponents in a tiny Holland farmstead. The pinnacle of vehicular combat, challenged only by it's younger brother 'Black.'

“Twisted Metal 2” was always a hard game. Especially given when it came out, as a lot of games then were designed to be harder, but at some point I just gave up. This was hard not by challenge but just because it’s a relic of its time. I wasn’t having fun. If you’re a fan of the franchise, maybe this still works for you, but as a fan from back then it just wasn’t hitting anymore.

They really twisted the metal twice with this one.
