 FUNMay 25, 2005
By Steven L. Fund

This is the best car destruction game ever and it is on a portable. I have beaten the ratherown special wepon short career mode with nearly every character. Each character has its own specials. The point of this game is to gather wepons in the arena and shoot at the other cars. The last car standing wins. The grahics are amazing, maybe the best out of any Twisted Metal game. This game, as many others have said, is mostly everything good from the first Twisted Metal and Twisted Metal: Black.

 This Game is a Must Get For Twisted Metal FansApr 21, 2005
By M. Boone
"DaClint"
This game is a very fun game for Twisted Metal fans and people just getting into the series. This game has awesome graphics just like the PS2 (but a lot more fun than Twisted Metal: Black).
There are three different single player game modes. Story mode is where you pick a car and use it for 11 different levels to destroy the other people's cars. Challenge mode is where you make all the rules and choose the opponents. Endurance mode is where you see how long you last. There is also a multiplayer mode for this game.
The characters from all the old games are back like: Sweet Tooth, Axel, Warthog, Outlaw, and many more. Each have their own characteristics (speed, armor, special weapon, and handling). There's bound to be a character for everyone.
This game is a fun game and an easy game to learn so I recommend it for people just getting the PSP also. Some people may not like the game so I recommend renting it first (gamefly.com *Please Refer Me).

Road rage in a good way!Mar 25, 2005
By Brian Reaves
This game is amazing! The graphics here blow any Nintendo handheld system out of the water. This actually looks BETTER than the console versions of Twisted Metal. Don't let the small screen size fool you, you can really tell what's going on here. It's smooth frame rates all the way, with no skipping that I could see. The cars respond well, and the sound rocks (as long as you're using the headphones...the little built-in speaker stretches it a little thin). Great fun!

Twisted Metal is back on the PSPMay 25, 2005
By Smithy1185
Having been a long time fan of the Twisted Metal series, I have enjoyed the 1st 2 games the most out of all the others. With Twisted Metal: Head on, the game seems similar to both Twisted Metal 2 and Twisted Metal Black in some ways. The controls work well on the PSP and the graphics and sounds are great too. Throughout some of the levels, there are minigames in which you can unlock hidden characters and new multiplayer levels. The story mode is the main part of the single player game and it is fun to see the ending movies of all of the characters. I haven't spent too much time playing online, but the time I did play was a blast. Overall, if you are looking for a new game for your PSP and want a blend of racing and shooting then this is the game for you.

"THE" Twisted Metal Title we all have been waiting for!Feb 04, 2008
By That Review Guy
this is an Excellent game with 12 vehicles and several unlockable vehicles and about 21 unlockable environments and even better a ton of minigames that range from a complete blast to play to a tad frustrating (think platforming with a CAR on the TOKYO ROOFTOPS area (think back to TM:2) and voila! nasty but still fun.
add to this formula, destructable environments and that lil item made my day (I used to hate running into a tree with MINION and it STOPPING ME. lol) not anymore however the trees give way and damage your car fairly realisticly.
sadly NO MINION but that is good in a way because the vehicles in this one are so well balanced that no one has ANY big advantage over all of the others like big baddies like minion did.
NOW for the multiplayer modes, WOW!!! very fun and a blast with up to 6 friends via wireless ad-hoc or Infrastructure mode (after a quick and free signup)
you control whether or not the environments are destructable or not in multiplayer and you also choose time limit or none, choose new vehicle after death or not, and finally artifacts!
new nifty power ups that do many things like increase turbo recarge rate and energy also double damage machine guns for a few examples. The envornmental weapons are all back like the lightning from the greek statues and radio tower. and a bunch more.
this games bosses are really well done too with crazy eddy being the first and a real blast to attempt to kill (the RV's are loony) and all the way up to tower tooth and the rest.
Fun: this game is a MUST OWN! 5 stars!
Graphics: better then TM: Black and any of the ps1 ver. so 5 star!
Sound: what you would expect but some surprises 4 stars
Overall: 5 Stars! this game is fun alone and a mega blast with friends or on the web and if you like these games like I do and especally this one you might want the ps2 version called TM: head on the extra twisted edition. 16 classic vehicles return plus all 12 new ones and 4 unknown unlockables. *see my review*
