5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite game in the series just barely above TM2
Yep, I can remember back in the day when the Playstation just came out and this was the first game i got back when the PS1 games came in those bulky cardboard cases instead of the smaller jewel cases. Well, this game is still a blast to play after all these years and is easily one of my favorite games of all time. This one had all the perfect levels and the perfect...

3.0 out of 5 stars Twisted Metal
Twisted Metal 1- Not the best game that I've played, but its pretty cool. Great for first time Twisted Metal gamers. After you've defeated it a few times and can beat your friends at it, move up a notch to TM2, which I think is the best of the all. You might not, though.

Bottom line is that if you are just starting to play the Twisted Metals, I would start with...

Yep, I can remember back in the day when the Playstation just came out and this was the first game i got back when the PS1 games came in those bulky cardboard cases instead of the smaller jewel cases. Well, this game is still a blast to play after all these years and is easily one of my favorite games of all time. This one had all the perfect levels and the perfect balance of characters set in a darker tone than the other games had besides TM:Black of course. I liked how each level had some destructible environments as well as the inside cockpit view in the cars. The stories for each of the characters were all interesting and made you want to play through with each character. Overall, this is a great game that will have you playing for quite a while and while your at it, check out TM2 which is an amazing game as well. You should especially check this one out if your a newer fan to the series and want to see the games roots.

If you are looking for a cheesy racing game, this is not what you are looking for. This game is pounded with so much action, explosion, and destruction that you will feel like you are in a battle field full of psychos. Buy this game, you wont regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars 989 can't make Twisted Metal for beans!, September 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
A great type of demolition derby! Exept for the guns and pedestrien crushing. There isn't much more to say besides this is a great game. But we probably won't se another good Twisted Metal again besides TW1 and TW2 because 989 studios ruined Twisted Metal. SingleTrac makes the best TW games. 989 should stick with Syphon Filter.The best thing about this game is blowing all the enemies to smitherines.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best in the series!!, July 30, 2003
This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
When I first played this game (seven years ago) I instantly got hooked. Twisted Metal was the first of its kind. No one had ever heard of a car game where you drive around blowing your computer opponents away. Even though the gameplay was drawling as you did the same thing for level after level after level, no one cared. That's how great this game was (and still is). Twisted Metal gave the world of gaming a new insight. It started this chain reaction that just could not be stopped. The characters are awesome and the gameplay is phenomenal.
Bottom Line: Twisted Metal rocks!!!!!!!

This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
While seeming kind of pixilated and slow nowadays, back when it first came out, TM was an incredible-looking game! The action was quick, the backgrounds creepy, and the energy high. TM2 was even better, then those idiots at 989 Studios got a hold of the franchise and ruined it! Oh well, there's always Vigilate 8... And you can always go back and relive the classic Twisted Metal!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very different., July 10, 2009
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
This is the very first twisted metal game to come out and i loved it. It is different than the rest of them but it is still fun to play. It has the original people and tracks to go to so if u have played any of the other twisted metal games u will reconize most of these people. It is very hard to beat because it is the first game and it took a long time to get used to. The graphics well this is the first one, its on the ps1, and it is a very old game so yes they r not very good. It is all blocky and the cars move in weird directions. This is a great game on multiplayer though, there r many different things to do unstead of just battleing each other. After u beat the game a couple of times it is easy to play and beat ur friends at it. This is a very fun but challenging game.

4.0 out of 5 stars A game worth playing.buying.keeping.play again.play again..., July 7, 2001
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
Wow. A game where you blow up stuff that isn't Mature. This game has some of the worst graphics I have ever seen. But don't get discouraged. Ignore the graphics long enough to see this is the 2nd most fun game I have ever played (next to Final Fantasy VIII). First off I love the characters. Especially the escaped mental patient Sweet Tooth (avoid telling your mother about that little detail). I also like Yellow Jacket. The cab driver. Another great quality is the gameplay itself. This is such a fun game. With great levels. It has such amazing replay value. Even the most advanced games don't have as good replay value as Twisted Metal. Buy this game. Beleive me, it is definetly worth buying.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for newcomers to the TM series, May 18, 2000
By A Customer
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Twisted Metal (Video Game)
The original Twisted Metal is either the second best or third best of the TM series in my opinion. It's a little bit slow compared to all the other Twisted Metal games, but that's really the only drawback I could find with it. It's fun and has a lot of non-stop explosive action much like TM2 only it's not quite as good and the levels aren't as imaginative or well laid out.

However, when you compare it to TM3, this game and all the other TM games ROCK! Unlike TM3, it has good control and a lot of replay value.

Bottom line, if you're a newcomer to the Twisted Metal series, I would recommend getting this one first then once you master it and get used to the controls and can beat all your friends at it, get Twisted Metal 2 because it's the best of the series.
