David Jaffe Accidentally Leaks Details About New Game

GTAce said:I never got into Twisted Metal back then, the only car combat game i played frequently was Interstate 76 on PC, which was absolutely amazing.Vigilante 8 was good too, but half of its characters and vehicles were copied from Interstate 76. :lol
But i played TM "a couple" of years later again and understand why it was so hyped back then.
I would really like to see a TM game which fully uses the PS3 hardware, epic weapons, great special effects, lots of stuff going on etc.
P.S.: I like Jaffe.
Interstate 76 has such an awesome soundtrack. I still have the CD soundtrack that came with the game.
Interstate '76 - Revenge Rocco Style
I'm still a fan of car combat, so I would be happy with TM. I don't think he'll disappoint.
Twisted Metal reboot ( if that why Jaffe work on ) should combine Full Auto and Burnout Paradise with more cinematic feel to it and put crazy SP mode with actuall story ( since old School Car combat games will not do it for today's market ) , but I doubt a small studio like Eat Sleep Play can do that.

Twisted Metal games have always had stories. And in his most recent video blog he talked about the "stories" in his new game.

David Jaffe is presenting the final awards at the IAA's with David Crane. The crowd keeps on shouting at him, "TWISTED METAL" and he finally yells back, "SOON BITCH!, 8 or 9 months."

It's been confirmed for years! In Twisted Metal "Head On" there's a hidden message that SAYS EXPLICITLY "Twisted Metal coming to PS3." It's in the works. It's been confirmed! Stop the speculation!!

I'd rather they focus on wholly original levels, then maybe release DLC level packs for favorite levels from TM1 (rooftops!), TM2 (antarctica! hong kong! new york! paris!) and TM: Black (basically all of them!). A Black level pack and a Classic level pack would be damn awesome.suplex said:
Of course, I'm still kinda hoping that the rumored Harbor City thing happens. <3

Kittonwy, some people love seeing old game come back alive. It's been a pretty long time since we've seen a Twisted Metal on current-gen hardware.

Sure, they're crazy and fun and an underserved genre these days.Kittonwy said:

The last one was what? Fatal Inertia? And before that, Full Auto? Neither of them was well received by consumers. I'm not sure if an online arena car combat game can hold people's attention in terms of longevity today as opposed to back then with Twisted Metal Black when even simple death match would suffice, people might even buy a game based on fond memories of an old classic but people can't PLAY fond memories.
SolidsnackooFoxhound said:
But does it go beyond just bringing back an old IP for the sake of bringing back an old IP? What's there other than deathmatch in an arena? How much variety and longevity can you get out of an IP like Twisted Metal? If you look at Warhawk there's a TON of variety because the player controls a character and the character can choose from a variety of vehicles or fight on foot with a variety of weapons, a vehicle combat game might feel much more limited, hopefully they can throw a few twists in there to make things interesting.

While that's also a good idea, my issue is that they've not been able to recreate the impact that TM2 has. When you get hit with napalm, it's loud, it hurts, and your whole screen is on fire. It's absolutely awesome. In TMB when you get hit with a gas can it's just not nearly the same. (Napalm was also way weak in TM3 & 4) Same thing with ramming cars. In TM2 when you hit someone with a bigger car, they get hit hard, go tumbling over, etc. In the sequels you just kinda bounce of the other car. It's kinda tough to explain, but it's just not the same.
So while I look forward to seeing another Twisted Metal game, my hopes aren't too high that it'll have similar impact/damage and physics as TM2. Which is why I would TM2 with new graphics and online play. I still play TM2 from time to time and the only real issue with it these days is that the graphics are very chunky. Of course online play would be a no brainer is they were actually ever to release such a project.

Jaffe's "speculative" statements have started with "IF WE WERE TO MAKE A NEW TWISTED METAL... we'd try to sort of start the franchise over and appeal to people as if it were a new IP." There was also that blurred note that people were able to photoshop-sharpen and read out of some picture Jaffe put out about the character being able to get out of their vehicle and run around on foot.Kittonwy said:
