Hybrid Games - Twisted Metal: Head On : Mini-Review (PSP)

Gameplay : This game is very hard to play without the dual analogue sticks of the PSOne and PS2. Don't kid yourself with other reviews. I bought it and sure it look great, but it is way too hard to control with what the PSP gives you.

I hate when old games get reviewed way late and get worse scores than they deserve. Back in the day when the psp first launched this was the first must have game on the psp. Before the servers shutdown this game had the best online play available on psp and still hasn't been topped but Resistance Retribution came close. I'd give the game a 8/10. "Don't kid yourself with other reviews" whatever man, Don't kid yourself by thinking your website will ever be anything more than a blog. What the hell do you mean it's a really bad ported game? First off the port to ps2 was fantastic secondly this is the psp version your reviewing not a port at all you dumbass. This game may feel dated to some who've just gotten into it but to true TM fans like myself, it's a classic. *adds Hybrid games to the list of websites I hate*

PlayStation Vita and Legacy Games - How it Could Have Been Improved

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are a few small tweaks that could've made the experience as a whole even more impressive and although it's a little late in the day for any changes to be made in this department, I thought I would write an article to examine the things that hold back the Vita from being a mind-blowing portable PlayStation legacy system."

The pricey storage is what deters many from experiencing Vita

fiveby92465d ago

I agree it did damage adoption of the system. I read an article that they chose a proprietary format for storage to limit / reduce software piracy. In the long run though it would seem their choice did far more harm than good. I still use my Vita from time to time but not as much as I would have liked.

Profchaos2465d ago

My main gripe was the fact that save game files were tied to the application instsll meaning if you uninstall you lose your saves excluding psp and ps4 titles

feraldrgn2465d ago (Edited 2465d ago )

Memory cards didn't drop to a respectable price.
1 account per memory card.

Save files were locked to the apps, delete the app & your save file goes, also makes backing up saves a pain.
Worse is that some of your saves won't load if you no longer have DLC that was in the save previously.

No way to back up trophies offline, to transfer to the offline storage of another Vita.
It still has great games though & portability is very nice.

Twisted Metal Franchise Celebrates 20th Anniversary

Twisted Metal aimed to entertain, and it did that far more often than not – even if that was occasionally executed with some of the worst acting this side of a Jill Sandwich.

Am I the only one who has enjoyed all the TM games?

Highlife3112d ago (Edited 3112d ago )

The ps1 games were the best. I would play split screen with my brother all the time. We would tape a big piece of cardboard to the tv so we couldn't look at each other's screen. So much fun.

The last one just wasn't as fun as the old ones not sure why.

spunnups3112d ago

Nope, I enjoyed them all, even TM3 and 4. Forget which one of those had a soundtrack of Entirely Rob Zombie, but that one rocked.

BlackTar1873112d ago

Twisted Metal 3 made by 989 studios. I like those one too but they were much less quality. My favorite is TM2 and TM Black then TM1 TMPS3 and TM3 and TM4

MastaMold3112d ago

No your not the only one that enjoyed all twisted metal, waiting for twisted metal game for PS4

Sent from my Xperia Z2 Tablet

ValKilmer3112d ago

Hoping we get a Twisted Metal PS4.

ZaWarudo3112d ago

Twisted Metal 3 was my favorite. So good.

Relientk773112d ago

Been enjoying this game since PS1

RyanDJ3112d ago

2 was the best: it was our "new year's eve" game two years in a row, that's saying something.

3 and 4 were very blah, thanks to the split off of SingleTrac. I much prefer their other two games that utilized the same engine. Rogue Trip was interesting, adding even more dark humor. And whilst not given as much respect, I loved the slow pacing and capture-the-flag attitude of Critical Depth.

BlackTar1873112d ago

Vigilante 8 was also a lot of fun

Finally, a post about Twisted Metal that doesn't have that stupid clown image! :P

TheSanchezDavid4462d ago

As much as I like darker Twisted Metal games, I really dig the more lighthearted style of Head-On.

ThatOneGuyThere4462d ago

This twisted metal is great fun online and locally. My biggest gripe is the connectivity issues. SERIOUSLY FIX THIS SH!T.

TheSanchezDavid4461d ago

Yeah, I really dig the newest Twisted Metal. The online issues are a pain, but when you get an online game going, it's a helluva lot of fun!
