Mr. Grimm has a new look. Check out his backstory in this character trailer for the upcoming Twisted Metal, which drops exclusively on the PlayStation 3 February 14, 2012.
The outspoken developer says they have a "mountain to climb" to success.
David Jaffe has long had a reputation for being an extremely outspoken developer. This is rare in an industry where so much information comes from a multitude of PR reps that are scared to let the game makers talk directly to the press. Jaffe has earned his right to speak his mind, considering that he’s responsible for two of the biggest selling PlayStation franchises in history. Those franchises would be God of War and Twisted Metal, which was the focus of a recent interview. There were some interesting revelations in this talk, including the fact that Jaffe isn’t too keen on the idea of shipping Twisted Metal with an online pass.
Jason gets some hands on time with Twisted Metal, but more importantly gets the full scoop on the details of the game.
Brief hands on time with the latest build of Twisted Metal was available after the Sony press conference. During my hands on time, I learned that the game is scheduled for release in just a few short months on October 4. While I didn't have the opportunity to play much of the game, it was clear that it was a faster paced experience than what the series has offered in the past. Though brisker in pace, the game felt controllable and smooth, just as Nick reported at last year's E3.
Twisted Metal is back and it looks better than ever.
In my opinion, Sony's biggest surprise of E3 was the reveal of Twisted Metal for the PlayStation 3. I've enjoyed the series in the past, and a new entry in the series is quite welcome as it has been dormant for far too long.
