Twisted Metal: Head On ETE in Action

75 4

Hey ya’ll- Jaffe here again with some more info on our newest game: Twisted Metal: Head On- Extra Twisted Edition (whew)!

While I love cool, flashy game trailer videos as much as the next gamer (and utilize said flashy trailers whenever I can), I also like seeing pure gameplay videos. Hyper produced clips are sweet for building excitement, but at the end of the day, I want to know what the game itself is going to feel like when I sit down to actually play it. And since the release date of TMHO:ETE is only days away (Feb 5th!), I think it’s time to give you guys/gals an idea as to the experience you’ll get for your hard earned cash. So- with all that preamble-I now present to you: gameplay from Carnival of Darkness, one of the 4 bonus levels from the never-released Twisted Metal Black 2!

Hope you enjoy!

  • Deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep down, sometimes I think you might not be such a prick after all.

  • theres no way to insert a quote here but man does tis just keep getting better or what I can’t beleive I lost my copy of TM:Balck dang-it and Im done saving for my 2nd PS2 cause I gave my PS2 to my dad and we got him some games so I don’t wanna take it away from him you know….any way $155 should cover it being that the game is such a deal!!

    questions??
    #1) Are you able to play as Dark Tooth in story/ 2 player/ single player because you couldn’t in TM2 and thats the only TM he’s appeared in until now.

    #3) I heard that in TM:Head On there was no minion have you included him into the game?

    #4) are all the charactors on the PSP version going to be included on the final release version?

    #5)Is this going to be online because if it I i can’t play it its to hard to play online with the PS2 but its very simple on the PS3 because it got wireless built in =D
    you need stupid cable to play PS2 online
    and I can’t play it on my PS3 because its the 40GB =.(

    O ya I see on some of the screens on the TM:HO website that theres 2 flames coming out the bottom of Mr.Slamm but he has a egsaust pipe coming out of the top part could you move the boost flames to the egsaust coming out the top like it was in Twisted Metal 4 it came shoting out the top ion TM4 so could you please pit that in it makes way more sense than to have it coming from 2 invisible egsausts on the bottom of an articulated machine .

  • JAFFE!!! I just watched a video of the original Twisted Metal and I noticed that Warthog has 6 wheels instead of 4 man if you ever visit this or read this could you Please give it 1 extra axle to make him a 6×6 it is way sweeter that 4 wheels man I beg of you to do that it’s insanley awsome a 6×6 humvee now thats something Iv’e never seen before so could ya? sorry for all the questions.

  • Jaffe, completely awesome of you to give out the free game. Can’t wait to play, funny thing is a friend and I just picked up Twisted Metal Black.

  • David if i had a vaj, i’d want you in it. Can’t wait for the ETE.

  • #55- Dude, if you had a vaj, you’d be the first girl gamer groupie I’d ever met and I might take you up on the offer, just for the sheer novelty of it. :)

  • lol! im like 0_o wtf!! over here.

  • LMAO @ David’s #56 comment.

    Anyhow, I enjoyed Head-On on the PSP.

    I might have missed this question, but is there any y LAN play?

  • David Jaffe is a video game PRODIGY!!!

  • Hey Jaffe did you get to read #46 comment…I hope you did. Here, I’ll repost it…I seriously would LOVE to play you in Calling All Cars

    “Hey Jaffe…do you still play Calling All Cars? I think I seen you once or twice..I am crazy sick at that game. Add me -> Stallone1993 if you want to see if I could beat you :P.

    Btw Jaffe, I used to play Twisted Metal when I was like 4 years old man…that game was crazy. Then I begged and begged for 2 3 4 and 2 years ago I got Head On for my PSP :P. I would gladly purchase a future twisted metal like an actual blu ray version of a TM but like a new refreshing start…I can only imagine what you guys could do with it. But hell, even unleash a game of TM over the PSN…look at Warhawk!!! Only 700 MB but waht a game. Imagine what you guys could do with 2 GB of data…but its twisted metal!

    ANyways I hope you got to read that and you could add me so we can hit each other up in Calling All Cars PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

  • I think I want to change career paths to being a game developer. If I had known there was a possiblity of girl gamer groupies I would have studied it a long time ago.

  • Hey Jaffe in the latest EGM it says that Miyamoto canceled a first party combat-racing game made in the U.S. because he thought that “Cars don’t shoot, they just crash” any thoughts?

    BTW I’m totally buying extra copies of this game for my friends and girlfriend.

  • I actually laughed @ #56

    best games developer ever :P I really hope i can find the game over here.

  • @56 : What would your wife say?

  • Beautiful!

    The level designs are so much more evolved here, those extra tracks have a lot of beauty in them.

    If there’s one thing I loved ’bout Twisted Metal 1, 2, and 3 was the level designs and how it was fun chasing your friends through them.

    The more diverse you can make them(exploratory) the more I’ll like it(hint for ps3 version :P).

    I’ll get this for sure! Gotta brush up my skills on on the TM Black hehe now.

  • DJ is straight up hilarious – not in a way so different than most people’s friends – just great he has the cajones to put responses up on the blog without worrying about running it through the system and sounding official.

    Oh and I am the guy buying it for my dad. He’s actually 56 and works from home for a consulting firm. I definitely busted him last week on a work conference call playing Minion while he talked budget for a proposal. I think he’ll like the new game – but then again he didn’t like TM:Black (and neither did I).

    Keep it lite and I’m looking forward to news on Twisted Metal for PS3. Even if you have to hint at it and call it Rotated Alloy for Next-Gen Consoles or something.

  • That looks like a lot of fun!

  • Any chance of you releasing a full fledged artwork book? I love concept art…

  • I woder (if there ever is) what a the PS3’s Twisted Metal would be like ‘eh? something like Twisted Metal:Apocalypse were you get to launsh a ballistic missile off the back of ur 18 wheeler ;D and cause serious ground deformation-the ultimate weapon :o

  • I really hope you make a ps3 version. At least a 2 player splitscreen and online. I know everybody loves the story mode of tm, but I really hope we get an awesome online. Something along the lines of warhawk would be great. I would love to be able to join whatever room I want, or even host my own game. tm2 was my favorite of the franchise. I missed a whole summer playing that game when I was younger. Keep up the good work, and I really hope to see a ps3 version of this game.

  • I think that to you know but I was watching On-The-Spot the other day and he David said some thing like “Twisted Metal is on its last stand or parade” or something so who knows what the future holds for the TM series only time will tell and this is afterall the 8th TM game so who know’s ??? the PS3 has opend up so many possibilities…………

  • Jaffe, i’m bad in English, so i’ll put it simple: TM on PS3 – when?

    Say it: “2008” :)

  • 9 more days!!!

  • put the peices to gether and see what you’ve got…

  • 8 DAYS!!!!! LEFT darnit

  • man, make me a god of war 3 demo and send it to my house and i’l worship you instead of a already dead man

  • by now there probably makeing copys of the game or debugging it and getting it ready to be loaded onto a @$$ load of semi trailers to be shiped all around the world.I hope that the game’s on shelfves the the day it comes out!

  • Can somebody tell me what the PAL release for this game is? Twisted Metal Black was the first game for my ps2 and I loved it (beside the terrible miss of the movies that where removed from the European release). I absolutely want this game! It does have a pal release right?

  • Yes, I hope David can answer this question. I’m also from Europe and I’m wondering if there are any plans for a PAL version. If not, then we’re gonna have to import it :)
