its been so long...the world needs another twisted metal game
i fucking wish
We thought that before...then we got Head-On
@@justinlast2lastharder749 we got Head-on because we ask Calipso, we must win the contest again and wish for a better TM Game.
@@YamchaTheStrongest we did, and got twisted metal for ps3
@@Giantsfanlewis true
26 years. That's insane. TM2 is one of my favorite games ever. It's the whole reason I bought my PS1.
Me and my step brother played this shit all the time. Such a great game. Minion used to scare the shit out of us.
2 was great but 3 I will always remember. It was my first tw as a kid
Same!
I bought my PS1 for WARHAWK.
@@PassportBrosBusinessClass brooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo WARHAWK omg lol I love that game lol
The nostalgia of this game is insane. Probably my most played game of all time.
It for sure is my most played game. I still play it to this day.
Definitely was my most played game this was probably the most fun game out back then
Far too many hours!
My favorite PS game
This game got me through tough times
This game symbolized a simpler time in life. Hanging out with friends just to laugh. No concerns. I miss these days, but I'm thankful I had them.
The best days
Yep 🤙🤙🤙
Agreed
Absolute facts! School, Playstation, cartoon network, Saturday morning cartoons...the easy life.
Yea it’s called “you grew up”
The kids these days now have their own “simpler time in life” that is of course different than ours.
You never used the codes for the ice missile, shooting backwards, and several other ammo types that use that bar above your ammo. It makes the game significantly easier to beat when you can freeze a guy in place with a well timed freeze missile. Me and my brother would play for HOURS.
I thought it was me…. That what the bar at the bottom right is for.
and jump (up up left).
Left right up, all day
I remember making my friends so mad when i would play my favorite, Shadow and use his special move backwards. :D I played this last year and yeah. Couldnt remember all the moves though.
Up , down, up, up
Had a huge influence on me musically and I constantly search for who shredded it up on the soundtrack. Great stuff from the golden age of games.
Golden age indeed
me too, Twisted metal 4 introduce me to rob zombie
The ricochet bombs on New York were so awesome. One of my favorite childhood gaming memories was when my childhood best friend came over to hang out for the first time in a few years (we had grown apart a bit after he moved out of town), and we popped TM2 in and played 1v1 on New York with ricochets only. We couldn't stop laughing and had a blast for hours before his dad came and picked him up.
I was obsessed with this game. I’d go to my friends house all the time to play it. It’s one of the greats.
I used to play it with my wife until the third disc we bought in a year time period became unplayable and we gave up on discs and switched back to the Sega Genesis and it's more reliable cartridges.
I found a secret in this game. I've never seen anyone else use it, or any record of another player finding it. So here we go: when dark tooth is defeated, prior to the head fight, go invisible (right, down, left, up). For the fight against the head you will be half invisible. For some characters its barely noticeable, some half, some mostly invisible. Anyways, hope someone tries this, it's been 26 years and I've never seen another player do it.
Sweet Tooth was a secret character in the original release of TM2, the code to unlock him was in lights off the roofs of Rooftop. Later copies, he was included.
Minion was unlockable too. Cheesy as all hell but so much fun
@Aaron Robidoux man! I miss minion. Got wrecked my first time playing cause my 2nd player (my nephew) and I got to Tokyo, and the dang train double got us.. after minion got us stuck in the tube.
We tussle about irl fighting over who lost for an hour after that, with both of us having taken hits to the gonads.. man.. good times. 😅
Up L1 triangle right!
He was not included. Got the greatest hits version and he wasn't in it
@@smokescreenSA And L1, up down, left for Minion.
How awesome would it be if they remastered all of these game on new Gen. can you imagine the level of detail that they could put into the levels. Not to mention the online battles would be epic asf
Getting your wish. Playable on ps5 7/18. Not really remastered or remade. Just playable I guess lol.
If they remaster it, it needs to have the physics of the original. NO 989 Studios or Black/HO/2012 physics. Just stupid arcade turn-on-a-dime instant rollover goofy ahh physics.
@@Trailboss11you just told him calypsos version of his wish.
Totally feels like 1996 wasnt almost 30 years ago
1996/1997 - 2004 was peak Playstation and arguably the golden age of 3D era , when game design was still mostly unadulterated no rules no formulas fun and risks were freely taken.
I enjoyed PS1 era more than any other Sony era , even though PS2 Is close and had more good games PS1 and 5th gen's best games In general felt more organic , unique , revolutionary , and overall more memorable. TM2 Is still just as fun now as It was In 1996 and the right mods can really make It and other PS1 games look better than ever.
@@fawkkyutuu8851 I actually like to play with the original resolution, it gives the PSX that feel of old TV even when with CRT it actually looked better than in modern monitors (even emuled)
I always thought Axel's ending was incredibly profound for something so brief, dumb, and pulpy. His whole little story arc in 2 to me was always about the subtext that in the end, the true prison was always his own mind. Whatever went on with him and his father, he was more afraid of him than Calypso and his tournament, and had such an incredible effect on him mentally that he doesn't even explicitly wish to be free, he just wants the courage to face him.
That, and ripping his arms out of the machine and holding his broken, jagged arm bone to his absolutely fucking flabbergasted dad's throat while yelling "I AM A FREE MAN, AND YOU ARE NO LONGER MY FATHER" is one of the most metal things I've ever seen in my life.
Real Shit
Why was axel put in that machine anyway. Also how is his dad white of he is black
Even as a little kid it always baffled me how he was able to survive in that contraption for so long. There is literally no logic to it, they could’ve at least said he was a cyborg so it would make a LITTLE sense, or a zombie, anything.
@@Bingo_the_Pug It's not meant to be taken too seriously, almost everything about TM2 makes no sense. But Axel should have just wished to be released from the machine.
Indeed, he just wanted to prove a point to him... A big screw you
This really takes me back! When I was a kid my best friend and I played this religiously! He died in the early 2000's and this video has brought back a ton of great memories. Thanks for that
R.I.P best friend.
Wow same, I had to double check to make sure this wasn’t my post. I think of him whenever i see this game. Died in 2006
Wow... Twisted Metal 1 and 2 were amazing. We all seem to remember playing with friends. My brother rented a PS1 and a copy of Twisted Metal when it was new, my Sega Genesis became redundant over night lol. I got my PS1 a couple months later for Christmas and my copy of TM1! Would love to see faithful remakes of the first 2 or 3 games.
My oh my how 26 years have flown by. I still remember feeling kind of afraid when its just you and Dark Tooth on the map.
Yup! 😂
yep, one of the scariest bosses. the feeling that it was you and him alone on the map, and you never know where ehes going to come from...
Facts.
I loved putting the unlimited bombs cheat on and just filling the whole level with those comical bowling ball bombs rolling everywhere
Unlimited Ricohets bombs in the warehouse level
In TM2 I think the longer the life of the bomb, the more damage.
Bro i would put on infinite weapons and shoot as many ricochets as possible down into the drop down pool in NY and jump in blow up just for fun 😂 or send enemies into it in CPU challenge matches
I would fill the London level with the ricochets in tm3
@@arthurtheoppressor7104 yep! I’d shoot ‘em until the playstation started to lag
The Twisted Metal, and Vigilante 8 games was my jam when I was 16 years.
There was also Rogue Trip, Interstate 76, Carmageddon,
and I think a water one called Critical Depth.
Interstate 76 I still own. I had to buy an external disc drive for my laptop to play. Also have to turn it down to 32bit lol
I loved Medievil growing up as well. Came on a demo disk my dad got and I played the hell out of it. A lot of fun memories on the PS1. My dad would set up the steering wheel and gas pedals for grand Turismo 2 on a projector and it was awesome.
@ 12:44 i burst out laughing at your bowling ball with strike sound effect edit, along with Sally's "ooh lala!" from commando @ 13:44 and the water drop at 13:51. You're an entertaining story teller with dank edits!
the hong kong map is like an essential part of my psyche, i used to basically speedrun every character like once a week as a kid, what an amazing and frustrating game this was
You ever jump on the Subway and let it take you for a few laps?
We used love jumping on top of the subway trains and riding them for some reason. They had codes on top of them if I remember correctly
Hong Kong map is the truth. One of the most memorable levels in gaming ever.
I was always partial to New York...then again, I loved playing Specter.
Was that the subway map?
They need to re-release this shit. Best game ever.
Hell ya, same gameplay with that A.I . that just wants to destroy you but updated graphics and more levels.that's why i love TM2 and TM black..tough..
@@cyborgar15 Could you imagine this in a battle royal format? Oh, the insanity, and the $ it would make the developers
I would absolutely play a TM BR with a good single player mode. Make it happen Sony!!!!!
@@DPRX99 Imagine it. For the first time ever, you could build you own fully customizable twisted metal vehicle. The possibilities could be endless. Imagine a remake of the map where you're on the city rooftops and you could ram people over the edge of skyscrapers where they fall to a fiery destruction. Somebody build this game. NOW
@@cyborgar15 And add in online multi-player support. I would pay $70 for this.
Playing these old games really puts in into perspective how skilled we were as kids, every time I try to pick up and play my old PS1 games I realize I have lost my PS1 skills. Armored Core was one of my favorite games in the world and I can hardly play it nowadays without using cheats lol, its so damn hard, and same with twisted metal lol. I'm super glad I got to grow up playing these games though, they're a part of my childhood and I love them.
Same here. A lot of ps1 games are hard to go back to, but Twisted Metal took a lot of skill to master.
I would spend hours on armored core just building the mech and designing my own badge 😂
@@knello15 you and me both lol.
Same. Try playing earthworm Jim on Sega. You'll get your ass handed to you.
Armored Core for PS1 man. Damn. I used to play that game so much and never had an idea what was going on lol
Absolutely amazing game. I spent so much time playing this. If only I could go back and relive one normal day as a kid playing this game and having the majority of my family still around.
Really enjoyed this video. You're commentary and editing is so entertaining. Probably gonna binge your channel now. Thanks!
The amount of hours I put into this game is unfathomable.
Glorious hours too blasting your opponents into oblivion. So satisfying.
It was an addictive game
This is low-key hilarious.
This was like a beautiful slap in the face from my twisted past. I loved this game. Very big part of my childhood. Thank you for this.
I can't quite put my finger on why I love the format/style of your Twisted Metal videos, I just love them!
the continue passwords at the start of each level start you off with full lives again, so you can effectively abuse all your lives per level as long as you move on
One of the best psx games. I love the gameplay, ost and endings !!!
Amazing! Thank you for posting. Brought back so many memories! Instant Sub & look forward to watching more.
really cool video dude!! This unlocked some core memories, I played the hell out of this as a kid. Total nostalgia trip.
My brother and I would play this game nonstop back in like 1998. It had such an impact on me, I still remember the series of buttons for God Mode. L1, L2, + R1, R2 and Up, Down, Left, Right, Right, Left, Down, Up on the D-Pad.
How did you get that code without the internet back then?
@@user-jl2te1tt5z Tips n Tricks mutha fucka!! Lmao yeah its a magazine called Tips &Tricks, it had cheat codes and tips for mostly every game came out for ps1, n64, dreamcast
@@user-jl2te1tt5z We had these things called magazines and books.
@@AccountInactive Those little PS1 cheat code books lmao. Good times
Twisted Metal, T2, and Twisted Metal Black: all bangers. But T2 was the one, no doubt. Thank you for this epic tribute!
yep they started falling off after that.
No love for twisted metal 3?
Thank you so much for this, it was such a great journey to nostalgia
Great video! Really dig your style of documenting your playthrough while also reviewing the game! Very unique!
But Axel’s ending is one of my favorites in the franchise. I interpret it as not Axel wanting to escape the wheels, but wanting to have the strength to face his father who has the real power over him.
Ah yes, Dark Tooth's got his own clown-faced bowling balls. Hiding in the subway tunnel long enough results in seeing a multitude of them bouncing around, seemingly homing in on you. I honestly wish we had access to them. I love Dark Tooth's custom ricochets.
There was a code on the game shark for the original PlayStation thst let you play as darkroorh. I remember it being a little buggy but it worked
That shit was so dope 😂 i was always jelly of them
TM2 stills holds the title for greatest car combat game of all time. The music, the characters, the levels, everything about this game is pure gold.
Vigilante8 was good too
@@konradkubala51 Vigilante 8 is a worthy successor. Still playing them
Ever heard of Rogue Trip? It was made by the same people that developed TM1 and 2.
I remember nothing about it except seeing it at Blockbuster , i grabbed it on ebay and keep forgetting to play it.
Even the spin off Roadkill was a lot of fun
This was my childhood. Such an amazing game
oh, man. those were 24 minutes i never knew i needed. commentary was on point. pop culture references were legit. nice work. made me feel like i was playing tm2 again without having to go through all the bs.
I wish they remade this. I’d be all about it
The Twisted Metal series and Vigilante 8. Both need a comeback.
And rogue trip vacation
@@jaulloa21Rogue Trip needs a remake for sure!! Definitely underrated imo so awesome
New York may be a bad level for everyone else, but for Mr. Slam it's the best level in the game.
New York is my favorite level and I'm a Roadkill player.
It can be pretty good for Outlaw too and to a lesser extent twister
The fatal falls just heighten the fun. I really hate that they started making falls just do a little damage and make you respawn back on the battlefield somewhere. It definitely cheapened the experience.
its also amazing when your a kid and u figure out u can hold the button for MR slam's special
Only level me and best friend would play. Specter all day
One of my favorite games ever. So many glorious hours spent finding all the secrets and completing all the stories. Thanks for the video
Dude this was amazing to watch lol. Every second and every clip was amazing. Especially loved the almost heroes cutaway 😂
This was the one that got me started, I remember visiting my great grandmother, and the neighbor kid inviting me over to play games. I became hooked after that and tm4 will always be God tier.
Still the best Twisted Metal game of all time. I still play it all the time.
is that a Psygnosis logo you got there? kinda crazy and weird that you'd use such an obscure logo as your avatrar
@@KronStaro I also recognize that bird...from Colony Wars?
GOAT
Do you know that you can play as Sweet Tooth?
@@maximilianpitscheider5034 Yeah, you can play as Dark Tooth and Minion.
I just found this video and it’s amazing. You earned a new sub with this. I can’t wait to dive into your other videos 😊
Just subbed. Great video. So many memories came rushing back.
I remember the christmas I got this game. It was perfect. Hard and you really had to know the car, the special moves and the maps to win.
It was the best Twisted Metal game and NOTHING has come close since. The comic/cartoon intro and endings was also amazing.
The closest was Twisted Metal
Black, but all the others are just bad
I only finished this in co-op. And only with my little brother. A much harder game in solo. So many fond memories, in my top 5 of all time.
Me and my buddy got so good we would finish it without dying. And eventually without dying and no health pickups.
Key was always use the shield and take out certain cars when they are alone. I am trying to fix my PS3 just for this reason
Your commentary and editing is very enjoyable to watch! I'm not a gamer but this was more entertaining on a late night than the other algorithm suggestions! subbed!! (also nostalgic, loved TM back in the day)
Aw man, your cuts to movie references were hilarious, specially 13:43 with the Commando reference. Awesome Vid l, appreciate the work & effort. 🤙🏾
Wow the most nostalgic thing about it was the cutscenes and the artwork, the grittyness and rawness made me pretty much have nightmares every night after I played it.
O
I highly recommend Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012. The passenger mechanic introduces a new intensity to play, it forces you to be aggressive when you're damaged if you wanna grab the tourist to get paid and heal.
You want mustard on that?
@@baughjaughes5104 Uh-huh-huh!
@@ClarkKentai here’s spit in your eye
Classic
Rogue trip... we hated at first.... then became a CLASSIC amongst my friends. I loved the levels and music. Streak was fun too.
Great video bro! This game is an absolute classic
Omg your content us amazing! Your detailed commentary is perfect when I want to listen at work. Subbed!
And the edits are gold
I instantly remembered all of the sounds and music from the game even though I haven't played this since around the year 2000. Nice video. :)
the nostalgia and ptsd from this came flooding back for me. lol love it!
I ended up watching this whole video.
Subscribed.
Great editing too🙏
My dad wasn't a video game guy, however... my cousin thought he was so great at this game that my dad put in countless hours getting absurdly good playing as Axel. He could crush anyone in a few moments on any level. I wouldn't be shocked to find he was the best player ever at this game... just so he could piss off his teenage nephew! 🤣 It's such a fantastic memory and I still love this game
One of my favorite games of all time. I played this game so often we found useful glitches, like the ability to shock people through the walls with the environmental weapon in Tokyo. And we made our own game, using the freeze weapon to play tag. Man that was fun
We did tag too!! Man I wanna be a kid again!!
@@yup4477 I always wondered if others also played tag! I love it! How great that you also did that!!!!
Played this game when I was 6 years old just recently bought it to enjoy today glad you are revisiting this gem
Love the clips used in this one. Really funny editing
Core memories unlocked with this vid, spent countless hours playing with my pops!
I love how you always reference movies to situations because I do the same thing in my everyday conversations 😂 immediately subscribed! 👍
The editing was so hilarious. This game haunts me. My brothers and I played this and Vigilante 8 allll the time. Very entertaining video!
MAN, Thank you so much for the walk down memory lane!! I graduated HS in 85' and I played through Twisted Metal I, II, and Black several times with all characters. I think I enjoyed using the Semi-Truck the most (Darkside maybe?) BC him and Hammerhead did the most damage. Thanks again man. SUBSCRIBED
gratz on hitting the algorithm, great videos!
Freaking brought back memories man! Run down to the grocery store and rent this for the weekend with my cousins. Great times! Hope they bring it back someday.
Was insanely fun playing this split screen as a kid
ScreenLOOKER!!!
I have such major life memories as a kid playing this with one of my best friends and absolutely loved it and still do. Couldn't stop thinking of it in school
my dad, brother, and I played a thousand hours on this game. we played versus mode on the secret cyburbia level and hong kong. i was twister, pops was grimm, brother was sweet tooth.
I still remember the directional inputs for freeze, napalm, shield, rear fire, boost and mines. (i think you forgot about those)
what a wonderful game. thx for taking me back
Do armored core 1 and 2! Ogre battle!
I still own this game. Absolute classic. And the track audio from L.A. brings back so many memories
No kidding. The Nostalgia is something else
The energy moves really make a huge difference in this game. They are worth learning.
A fresh TM2 video in my feed? Yes! Sank a million hours into this game. Was happy to see this in my recommended. Fine Axel play, Sir. Shadow main here myself.
how weird is it that I had been thinking about these games recently! what a trip!
I would love to see a new version of this!
Underrated channel. Deserves way more subscribers.
This was my favorite Twisted Metal game. I played Roadkill and Warthog mostly. The games got worse when they added 'realistic' physics. 😭
Man, my dad and i loved this game when we played it so many years ago! I cant wait for a new one or if i can figure out how to play it on series X now. Good video!
Dude, awesome video!
Twisted metal is a god tier game. The second one is still my overall favorite game
A game I definitely should of not have played at such a young age but I regret none of it and I enjoyed so much
Vigilante justice also played the hell out of that
Sir we need more videos like this! This was a masterpiece of a yt video!❤️🔥
Omg this brings back memories, the Clown truck you could secretly unlock was always my fav to troll my friends
“His special is a crock of ass” made me laugh more than I should have
This game got me and my roommate through college. Thumper was my favorite, followed by Grabedigger. That phantom ground missile that could go through walls was sick. Outlaw and Roadkill were azz!
Watching you play this brings back memories of a simpler time
TM 1 & 2 were an absolute mainstay of my childhood. I bought a PS 1 and both games and the nostalgia feels were in full effect. I'm glad to have been around to appreciate these games in their prime.
Great video. Going to have to try to find a copy and play again. Its been so long.
This brought back so many memories of being a kid again. God I miss those days.
loved this game.i still remember the d pad combos to shoot ice.sheild.shoot behind you.drop minds etc.
26 years later i still love it, everything about it. it was biggest multiplayer game in my country at the time.
Recently started playing this again. This game is a bit more frustrating than I remember, but it's still so good.😅
Great video.👍🏼
Arrived in Japan to find a PS1 in my apartment, and this, Wipeout XL and Tekken 3 became my go to stress release for years. So cool to see it again, thank you.
Man that game is classic. But I can definitely see the friend using the DPad today. Btw, first time ever seeing your content. It’s hilarious. Love it.
So many fun lil Easter eggs and interactables in the maps too. Love this game, would be cool to see a remaster
I wasn't 100% sure I had played it until I saw the lava level. That's what triggered my memories. As soon as it popped up on screen I was like, this effin level. Thanks for the trip!
Shadow was my absolute favorite. Spamming those remote shadow bombs from across the map was so OP. Muahaha 😈
Really entertaining to watch and loved all the commentary!
Oooohhhhh man this brings back Soo many memories! Wowwww. Me and my friends use to be getting down on this!! I totally forgot about this game
Love that u used axle he was always my main and go to character
