Twisted Metal III

Feel your Vehicle get waxed. Destructive 3-D Engine. Wicked tunes by Rob Zombie.

 

Combining the road rage-inspired dark fantasies of Mad Max with a twist of campy black humor, Twisted Metal III is a worthy addition to the emerging car combat genre. Though the game is sure to be a hit with newcomers of the series, fans of the previous Twisted Metal games will find that TM III doesn't quite fire on all cylinders.

The story runs somewhere between Mortal Kombat and your wildest dreams of demolition derbies. But the paper-thin plot doesn't matter: you have a rad car and aren't afraid to use it. Whether you choose to control the monster truck driven by the little old lady, Mr. Grimm's motorcycle o' death, or what is quite possibly the coolest ice-cream truck ever, you'll speed and skid around the asphalt-covered levels, grabbing power-ups and blowing up your opponents with a wide array of vehicle-mounted weaponry.

In a game like this, several things are key: physics, control, and level design. Twisted Metal III departs from the previous games in the franchise. The levels are smaller and the physics and controls conspire to make the vehicles handle oddly. The bottom line: car-smashing fun that doesn't quite live up to the glories of the prequels. --John Cocking

Pros:

  • Cool vehicles
  • The London level
  • Knocking your foes off the rooftops in Tokyo
Cons:
  • Driving in reverse using the analog controls
  • There are some small, small levels

Twisted Metal III Reviews

Its basically the same as TM2 where you travel around the world to places like Tokyo, London, Area 51, Egypt, Hollywood, just to name a few levels. In 1998 Twisted Metal 3 was released for PS1 the sequel to 1996's Twisted Metal 2 and the original Twisted Metal released in 1995. A new developer 989 Studios took over for SingleTrac who developed the first games in the series. The game also allows you to hook up a multi-tap to play with four other friends well three but four if you include yourself.

I have personally played this game and will say that its garbage and not even worth being mentioned as apart of TM series. The cars control bad plus the graphics look realistic like the first game rather than cartoonish like the second game. This game uses a entirely new engine built from the ground up since it was a new developer working with the series. The endings for the characters are really cheesy unlike TM2 which was pretty dark.

A few characters from the previous games are in the game like Darkside, Hammerhead, Sweet Tooth, Thumper, Outlaw, Mr, Grim, Specter, Warthog, Minion, as well as new characters.

 

-willh09 It has a great soundtrack, quite a few levels, many characters, and unique enviroments. Twisted Metal 3 is a game I played for a very long time back in the day. I deffinately reccomend this game to anyone who plays video games, new or seasoned.

 

Its "Darn" good. -PabloG. I think I did. TM series are like Destruction Derby to me, but less graphical. Dunno.

 

I don't know about you guys but i still like to play this as weel as twisted metal 2, even though i just got an 360, i will still play this whenever How can anyone not like this game.

 

what more can I ask. great shipping time, product in good condition, it's what I ordered. thanks. I've been wanting a good (not all scratched up) TMIII for a long time.
