Genres:Shooter, Racing, Fighting
Themes:Action, Thriller, Survival
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:Twisted Metal consists of a series of arena-based battles against an increasing number of opponents in increasingly large arenas. These battles culminate in a face-off with the winner of the previous year's competition, Darkside, who drives a large armored car which fires multiple missiles at once.
Players can choose one of 12 different vehicles with which to enter combat. Each vehicle has a distinct driver and special move. The controls consist of accelerator, brake, "tight turn" (essentially a handbrake) and turbo on the face buttons, with main weapons and machine gun selection and control on the shoulder buttons.
Arenas are populated with weapon pickups to re-supply missile stocks, repair stations for repairing damage to your car, pedestrians, and course stewards armed with either machine guns or missile launchers.Show more

Did you know that Twisted Metal actually has a PC port, but it's exclusive to Japan for some reason? It works just fine, too, so this one is a totally viable option (licensing issues aside, whatever they may be).
I Remember Getting This Copy For Free On PC, It Wasn't As Great Playing On PC As It Was On PSX, But.. It Was Still So Much Fun In Multiplayer Mode Even Single Mode, I Think Its Time We Get The Whole Series Remastered On PC, Imagine Playing Them On Steam Deck!
The original Twisted Metal that started something big. The genre is virtually dead but back then. This jump started a new trend among driving games. Originally going to have live action FMV endings. Which were later released through Twisted Metal: Head-On Extra Twisted Edition on PS2. This was one of Dave Jaffe's first video games. The audio kinda sticks with you for many years. An interesting roster of characters. A small variety within the stages. Twisted Metal can be somewhat frustrating. But it's so satisfying to keep pushing forward taking out your opponents. This was an early PS1 game not quite launch title. Parts of this game holds up well with some aspects becoming more dated overtime. Honestly, it's a fun time especially you wanna blow stuff up.

Vigilante 8The game's storyline is built around an alternate history, in which there was a worldwide oil crisis in the 1970s and the U.S. was on the verge of an economic breakdown. Strikes, riots and crime were rampant, and all available law enforcement were brought to the cities leaving the outlands vulnerable. A foreign multinational oil consortium, Oil Monopoly Alliance Regime (OMAR), was determined to monopolize the world oil trade. The U.S. was the last country that stood in their way and they were prepared to go to any length to bring the U.S. to its knees.
OMAR hired Sid Burn, a professional terrorist, to push the U.S. economy over the edge. Sid began to organize his troops in the remote areas of the southwest. Calling themselves the "Coyotes," they began to target oil refineries, commercial installations and other vital industry throughout the region. With the law enforcement in the cities, some desperate civilians began to take the law into their own hands. Led by a trucker named Convoy and referred to simply as the "Vigilantes," this oddball group soon became a major hindrance to Sid.
Meanwhile, the U.S. government, feeling more vulnerable than ever, was intensifying its research and development of a new military arsenal. The most advanced weaponry, rumored to be based on UFO technology, was located at Site-4, a secret facility at Papoose Lake. This information was not lost on Sid, and the Coyotes ambushed the facility. However the Vigilantes unexpectedly appeared to stop them and as a result, both parties found themselves in possession of the world's most advanced weaponry.
What followed were no ordinary skirmishes. Auto clashes ensued all over the land, from Colorado's Rockies to California's farmlands, only to culminate in a battle like no other. To this day the events which took place are only a matter of speculation.Action Fantasy Historical
