Why did vehicular combat as a genre die out. I miss Twisted Metal!

  1. There’s been a few attempts at similar over the past decade, but they all fall flat on their face and fail. So I think the industry has just formed the opinion that there is no point in making vehicular combat games that aren’t Twisted Metal. As for why there’s no Twisted Metal revival on the horizon? No idea. I was hopeful that when the show was announced it would come alongside a new game, but nope. I’ve given up hope at this point lol.

  2. seems like a no brainer for Twister Metal to make an online battle royale game.

    Because twisted metal was was peak and V8 behind it, and then they tried making a kids version to combat crash team racing and Mario kart ahd people dropped off. They released black and it was back. With a popular gritty crowd. But then with no sequel, the game died off.

  6. Rock and roll racing is one of the best games ever made

    You’d think someone would make a battle royal vehicle combat game since those are so in rn

    TM black was goat the art style and stories was a masterpiece.

    I really wish they would have continued with that

    Twisted Metal 2 was epic. The first one was also really good. Hands down my favorite games on PS1.

    nobday remember Cel Damage? i played so much of that on my gamecube

  13. I played twisted metal 2 so much when I was just a child in elementary/middle school, that I still have the God Mode code memorized.

    Hold all L and R buttons and press Up down left right right left down up.

    I’m 35 now.

  14. It seems like something next-gen tech could make really cool.

    Image more realistic-looking damage on the crazy Twisted Metal vehicles.

    Remember how you could blow up the Eiffel Tower? Imagine that on PS5 tech.

    The explosions, man! We could have so many explosions!

    There were a bunch of actually reasonably decent indy vehicle combat games on Steam about a decade ago, but none of them took off.

    I had hopes that Avalanche Studios would’ve gotten the reigns for Interstate 76 after Mad Max…
