Undoubtedly the Twisted Metal series has played a great role in promoting the Sony PlayStation’s success. If we revert to 2001, that time the original car classic combat was the first classic title on the PlayStation. This renowned series has gone through several ups and downs, but it still manages to glorify the PlayStation Portable with its latest addition Twisted Metal: Head On.
None of its charm and bite has been lost during the past years, as the game appears as fresh as ever. The title includes great action packed race courses, colorful and vibrant characters, a fantastic presentation and WiFi multiplayer action to make it a clear PSP success story. If you’ve previous versions, then you’ll find this one has a very similar feel to its predecessors.
In some ways, this demolition, destroy everything title actually has more in common with first person shooters than it does with other driving games. As a player you’ll get access to an ample amount of weapons, including machine guns, missiles, bombs, mines, napalm–you name it. More than 15 different vehicles are available in Twisted Metal Head On (PSP), and each contains distinct attributes for handling, top speed, armor, etc. and unique special attacks. You’ll even get a bulldozer from Mr. Slam that assists you in picking up and throwing the vehicles like nothing. The game involves all those tensed and exciting moments such as tearing your way through bumpy environments, or running over health, and weapons power ups while keeping an eye on radar for nearby opponents. Often, a sharp 180 degree turn becomes indispensable and for that you’ve got a nitro booster together with a handy emergency brake.
The exaggerated environments are actually based on existing real world locations and contain plenty of secret nooks and employable crannies. Responsive controls are always essential for an excellent driving experience, and fortunately this game delivers. Ultimately the demolition title does a great job of carrying on the series legacy and is a must-have for the PSP.
