 My favorite game in the series just barely above TM2Apr 17, 2005
By Smithy1185
Yep, I can remember back in the day when the Playstation just came out and this was the first game i got back when the PS1 games came in those bulky cardboard cases instead of the smaller jewel cases. Well, this game is still a blast to play after all these years and is easily one of my favorite games of all time. This one had all the perfect levels and the perfect balance of characters set in a darker tone than the other games had besides TM:Black of course. I liked how each level had some destructible environments as well as the inside cockpit view in the cars. The stories for each of the characters were all interesting and made you want to play through with each character. Overall, this is a great game that will have you playing for quite a while and while your at it, check out TM2 which is an amazing game as well. You should especially check this one out if your a newer fan to the series and want to see the games roots.

This is a great game for everyone to have fun with!Jul 22, 1999
If you are looking for a cheesy racing game, this is not what you are looking for. This game is pounded with so much action, explosion, and destruction that you will feel like you are in a battle field full of psychos. Buy this game, you wont regret it.

989 can't make Twisted Metal for beans!Sep 04, 2000
A great type of demolition derby! Exept for the guns and pedestrien crushing. There isn't much more to say besides this is a great game. But we probably won't se another good Twisted Metal again besides TW1 and TW2 because 989 studios ruined Twisted Metal. SingleTrac makes the best TW games. 989 should stick with Syphon Filter.The best thing about this game is blowing all the enemies to smitherines.

The best in the series!!Jul 30, 2003
By Thomas Peacock
"Master Reviewer"
When I first played this game (seven years ago) I instantly got hooked. Twisted Metal was the first of its kind. No one had ever heard of a car game where you drive around blowing your computer opponents away. Even though the gameplay was drawling as you did the same thing for level after level after level, no one cared. That's how great this game was (and still is). Twisted Metal gave the world of gaming a new insight. It started this chain reaction that just could not be stopped. The characters are awesome and the gameplay is phenomenal.
Bottom Line: Twisted Metal rocks!!!!!!!

 A classic!Nov 29, 1999
While seeming kind of pixilated and slow nowadays, back when it first came out, TM was an incredible-looking game! The action was quick, the backgrounds creepy, and the energy high. TM2 was even better, then those idiots at 989 Studios got a hold of the franchise and ruined it! Oh well, there's always Vigilate 8... And you can always go back and relive the classic Twisted Metal!
