David Jaffe and his team are currently in crunch mode with the upcoming Twisted Metal for PlayStation 3, but he took the time to reveal the game’s release date in a video tailor made for the PlayStation Blog.
Twisted Metal hits on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2012, David Jaffe said today over on the PlayStation Blog. Prepare for the heartbreak.
Twisted Metal 2′s Statue of Liberty Easter Egg returns in the Twisted Metal due out later this year.
It’s not unfair to say that vehicle combat games have gone out of fashion. There are very few, if any AAA franchises anymore, which is definitely a big part of why Twisted Metal‘s multiplayer is so refreshing. The combat in the game is just as fast-paced and competitive as a FPS or fighting game, but without the reflex-based twitchy feeling that deters players who don’t have that competitive streak. This version of the game sets itself apart within its own genre as well with improved controls.
Twisted Metal dev David Jaffe tweeted this first look at the booth art being prepared for the game’s E3 outing next month. “BEHOLD: THE RISE OF SWEET BOT!!! Aka: a side of the still work in progress Twisted Metal E3 Booth. I’m loving it!” {davidscottjaffe]
