4Player - "You simply don’t get that same feeling from Vigilante 8, which has destructible environments but never utilizes them in such a way as to make the levels nearly as modular as they could be. There is, instead, a static quality which never seems to relax its grip on the design, and results in the levels seeming overly rigid. I hate to make it sound as if this is an attestation of a lack of creativity, but this overarching problem winds its way throughout all of Vigilante 8, and in a way it seems as though Luxoflux felt really awkward thinking outside the box. Even the quirky characterization of the cars seems to have been developed in such a sophomoric way, that in comparison to Twisted Metal they just come of as timid and banal."
Everyone knows Twisted Metal... I mean literally everyone! Whether it is simply a childhood classic for you, or one of the worst, mind-corrupting disgraces to entertainment you can think of, you've at least heard of this iconic title.
The WellPlayed crew gathers to pitch an appropriately deranged set of options for the future of Twisted Metal.
All I ask for is a new Twisted Metal that allows flat screen & PSVR2 cross play that also supports a wheel.
Would be heaven.
They need to get the enemy AI balance right. Thats what made 2 the best in the series. Black was abysmal in that dept.
You don't. Do sequels. If you've gotta reboot, might as well do a new IP. God of War is the only game I can say that did a successful reboot
The rumours were legit. The Twisted Metal franchise is coming back, Sony
officially announced at CES 2022.
I hope it follows the gameplay style of hardware rivals, seriously that game was awesome to play
Vigilante 8 was amazing! The Roswell level with the aliens and the giant Rollin donught was awesome!
Was a truly amazing game in the day. They had a semi rig with a huge trailor dammit. LIGHTNIN!
funny story? on one of my birthday's as a kid, a friend of mine gave me his Vigilante 8: 2nd Offence as a gift. he missed it so much that he offered to trade it for his version of Twisted Metal. I refused.
game also had a great soundtrack. I still play "Stargazers" to this very day :)

I remember getting Vigilante 8. I was little but I knew it looked like Twisted Metal and ended up really like it. Bought the sequel too. I wouldn't doubt a new gen of it would be better then current twisted metal. It's so different.
Twisted Metal - 80´s
Vigilante 8 - 70´s
Love both series.
