![]() ![]() You just progress from one storyline to the next. Another difference with the story mode here is that you don’t actually choose the driver you want to play as. Any driver can drive any of the vehicles and as you complete events in the story mode you’ll unlock more vehicles. One upside to this is that the drivers are no longer tied to specific vehicles. But it does suck if you were a fan of specific drivers from previous games or were looking forward to even more crazy characters. Granted, playing through the contest with twelve drivers to see their endings in past games was repetitive so this may have been the developer’s way of just eliminating the repetition. One disappointing aspect about the story mode is that there’s only three drivers. ![]() Drivers still compete for a grand prize of anything they wish and Calypso is still a sinister motherfucker. From what I gather, Calypso is now the head of his corporation, Calypso Industries, which I believe is supposed to be a front for the contest. The Twisted Metal contest is actually a bit different this time around. But how did it turn out compared to its predecessors is the real question. The development team was once again directed by series creator, David Jaffe, so it had all the makings of another excellent entry in the series. Developed by Eat Sleep Play and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, Twisted Metal was released in February, 2012. From that point on I followed its development right up to release and even took a week off work to play it. I can remember when Twisted Metal was announced at E3 for the PlayStation 3 and my excitement was just through the roof. Nevertheless, I put the Twisted Metal series right up there with the Mario and Grand Theft Auto games as one of my favorite franchises. Most dedicated fans of the series won’t even discuss Twisted Metal III or 4, for that matter, and I think I’m one of the select few who enjoy those games. As the years went by I obtained every game in the series but Twisted Metal 2 and III remained among my favorites for the longest time. I grew up with a PlayStation and I think I put more hours into Twisted Metal III than any other game on that console. The Twisted Metal series has come a long way since 1995. ![]()
