Does Twisted Metal 2 Still Hold Up In 2024

Twisted metal 2, now this is a game. Twisted Metal 2 in many ways is the peak of the series in my opinion, and one of the better games on the ps1. This is one of those games I bought during a period of time when I was just buying retro games with any sort of name brand recognition behind them, even if I had no interest in the franchise. I knew of Twisted metal, and I had a copy of Twisted Metal black, so while I was doing the rounds on Craigslist one day a cursed amount of years ago, I bought this game along with some other games. But I really had no interest in the series beyond it being something I'd heard of. So my copies more or less sat on my shelf for the better part of a decade. I'd attempted to play it a few times, but I never got into it, and usually quit after a few levels. It wasn't until I'd really gotten into twisted metal black a few years back that it and the rest of the series really started to click with me. But this one in particular really stuck out to me in the grand overall scope of the series. Because like I said, it is a game.

A lot of us relied on gaming magazines for codes, especially when Tips and Tricks was put out with a compendium of codes for recent games. I believe that Video Games: The Ultimate Gaming Magazine put it out on occasion.

[@TheLomdr]

Nintendo Power also had some walk throughs for some of the featured games, rarely single issue full guides though. most of the time it will get you roughly halfway through a game or it's a multi issue thing. Granted, this was back when quicker games were the norm (Contra, TMNT) instead of RPGs like FF. Though Nintendo also had a Brady/Prima Games-like subdivision that published guides for the longer platformers out there and RPGs that Nintendo published. I remember having a SMB3, DKC, and the first 2 pokemon generations guides as a kid (though the Red/Blue guide went with the intended type matching instead of the bugged ones for Ghost attack damage against Psychic Type pokemon)

[@AntiWhiteOut]

I figured out some by myself like the freeze bombs. I remember finding the code for sweet tooth and minion in the new york and Paris maps. God mode and the secret maps I found in the magazine.

[@AntiWhiteOut]

​@TheLomdr I remember when Nintendo power informed you about how you get a bunch of P powers when you beat the game and they forgot to add that in all stars.

Only until 1998 1999 did the internet become a place where you can find cheats for any game. 1996 97 when TM 2 was out on the market, internet and gaming websites were still in their fruition

[@doppelminds1040]

It was amazing when games had that aura of rumors and secrets around them and you had to literally go and find out, now a game gets released and someone already completed it and uploaded the full playthrough in less than a day and every detail is already available, there's nothing new to discover

[@alexm2889]

What people miss is that with the special bar and the excellent handling, the skill ceiling on this game is extremely high. When you can take a tight turn and drop a napalm on someone's head accurately, or back up just in time, drop a mine and hit them with a napalm while they're flying over you're car, you're starting to unlock the brilliance of this game 😉

[@worsethanhitlerpt.2539]

TM1 plays better and has more grounded control. I liked some of the changes in TM2 but the camera always changes back to close-up when you go indoors, and you have to fucking switch back to far-view every time. Ricoccet Bombs blow up on you if youre going fast too which is retarded

[@rallysport92]

You didnt need to buy the book you bought to learn about how to unlock sweet tooth. Gaming magazines back then would regularly write about that stuff and some magazines would have a few pages dedicated to the most popular games at the time with their cheat codes. Like I remember playing TM2 when it was still pretty new and playing Sweet Tooth immediately because I had the cheat.

[@kevinbrooks9074]

You don't say...

[@rv2167]

I mastered this game. I knew every move, every level, could beat it with sweet tooth in one sitting, etc. It was fantastic. The cut scenes, the difference between the characters. I love it.

[@alaundrasochia6663]

I thought it was easy to beat with sweet tooth. He had a good special and was fast and had a lot of armor

[@thatsnotoneofmeatsmanyuses1970]

I started with TM2, and it was hard to go back to try TM1. TM2 is the best of the series in my opinion as well. My biggest gripe is that damage doesn't register if the enemy is too far away. I don't know if this was a hardware limitation, or way to stop the enemies from killing each other constantly. They do attack each other (when they remember to), but they are usually too far away from you for the damage against others to register.

[@Ultrox007]

While I'd be keen to argue 'accessibility' I want to qualify that being able to play a game and being good at said game are two completely different things. Colorblind options, waggle-alternatives, audio adjustments, "strobe off" modes; all more than welcome. But what you see as discouraging - I see as motivating. This said, I do wish it had the option "Continue on Medium" or "Challenge Minion on Medium" so you didn't have to replay everything you already did up to that point.

[@huuuuuumpy]

Anyone can beat medium mode if they learn to shield and jump. Mines are a waste of energy and so is minion special. Beating hard is where you gotta learn turbo discipline and is hard af.

7:15 Bog standard gaming magazines back then also had extensive cheat sections to go along with the normal line up of stuff.

Personally I believe this game really shines brightest in its co-op mode. I would play with my brother and cousins many many times as a kid and we would switch up who was playing with each map. It was a ton of fun to fight each other on the secret maps like Suicide Swamp and Rooftops but my favorite was Suburbia. The visual comic book style was iconic and still holds up to this day. I actually bought this again last winter and played it for a bunch of hours. Still a ton of fun even if only single player with many great memories. Loved the endings, specials, maps and gameplay. Best game in the series by a mile!

[@rudepickle2665]

I loved playing these games as a kid, I think I started w 3 but also played 2-4 and black. Black was my favorite because it was so dark and it brought what I loved about the game out even tho I wasn’t following the lore much. Grim’s ending was so awesome because I love history and his death character being relayed to Vietnam felt so natural.. mind you I was probably still 11 or something lmao. My favorite character to play was Darkside tho because big truck go vrooom!

This is probably my favorite of the series too however I do have a soft spot for 3, yes it's not as good but I had many days getting off from school, heading over to the store, buying a Surge and then riding my bike to my friends house where we would play TM3 while munching on pizza rolls. Anything is better with friends.

[@brucemckinlay9739]

I played a metric TON of TM1 with a buddy of mine. Then TM2 came out and it was even better. I have TM2 as a top 5 video game of all time for myself. The sheer amount of enjoyment this game brought to me.....god damn I miss those days. I don't play too many video games these days and have no current consoles but a TM2 remaster is a game that would have me purchasing a PS5/Xbox the day I saw the announcement.

[@Elbon-the-Lolinator]

Black is my number 1. And it's because of Black you truly gave the series a chance!

[@BigSlick98]

So I pretty much agree with everything you have to say about this game. This is one of if not my favourite game of all time. I just disagree with you liking the TM1 health stations better over the pick ups but that’s minor. This game has the perfect gameplay and difficulty. The controls aren’t perfect but you get used to them and they are amazing to pull of shots. The AI can be annoying with the freeze spam but other than that you can learn enemy patterns and it becomes less of a rng fest. Making half the game locked out from playing on Easy shouldn’t take away from the game itself even though it’s a bad decision for new players to the series. I find Black to have way more problems than this game and I even prefer 3 & 4 over Black.

[@prestonm9890]

Friggin love this game and both Vigilante 8 games and Rogue Trip. Still remember the God Mode cheat for this game. I’ll never forget that. Def need a remake on pc for this game.

[@Theguy493]

I feel like Twisted Metal 2's difficulty would have been mitigated somewhat if two things were done. One is your lives recharged after every level and two is if it implemented a save system rather than a password system. Rogue Trip did both of these and thus is a more reasonable challenge. Also the soundtrack in Twisted Metal 2 is the best in the series by far and has never really been topped.

[@kevinbrooks9074]

[@trainofthough0242]

Twisted Metal 3 had the better soundtrack imo. Although hearing Meet The Creeper and Superbeast over and over again does get old eventually but the same goes for TM2's soundtrack too. Just not enough different songs.

[@treflippa2]

you know...that hammerhead ending may just be the only time I can think of Calypso trying to actually grant a wish correctly and it still backfires on the winner in a deadly manner. Still has that whole "Be careful what you wish for" element to it but in terms of the wrong doing it's actually there own fault this time instead of calypsos lmao P.S. TBP as far as the difficulty thing goes I feel like games were just harder back in the day. Not just TM series but pretty much any game. P.S. P.S. Don't go too hard on TM3 I feel I'm in minority but I loved that game man haha

[@screamingcactus1753]

Calypso definitely still screwed them over since a couple of plane tickets is far from the actual intention of their wish, but if they'd been a little more patient and cautious they just would have been disappointed instead of dead.

My all time favorite game series as a kid

[@cskillers1]

twisted metal 2 [USA] is the mod for this game which fixed some bugs and made the game harder, one of the bugs the modder fixed per my request, was specter's ultimate ability focusing only Player 1 at all times, even if bots or player 2 were right next to the bot specter - specter's ultimate still flew the whole map to hit the player 1, that was fixed in that modded version, the dark tooth's head also became harder than the dark tooth, arguably, still just as squishy but it can melt you in like 2 seconds, 2 or 3 new levels, one of them is from tm1 (the boring one), a bit more lives, overall it's still harder to complete it on hardest difficulty than the default game

I’m a Mister Grimm main. That special is absolutely brutal.

I guess you're just built different

[@SpeedBlazer99]

TBP can you play and do a review/retrospective on Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed please?

[@jeffcourty6321]

Battling on the rooftops against a friend was an incredible experience back then!

[@bryanphillips341]

Anyone else feel like a new TM game may be comming? I hope so and i hope it is good.

[@7dogguy]

id love to hear your tier list for these games

[@barangoran4179]

That Los Angeles Theme hit me hard with nostalgia when i heard it here.

[@gunforce5559]

When I first played this game. I thought it was a racing game.

[@mpixel2058]

This is the game that made me get a PS1.

I love how back then 16 months (1 yr 4 mths) was considered a long development, and now it takes studios 8 years to produce a CGI trailer.

The best part about this was it causing me to immediately jump onto Amazon to search for said strategy guide Actually didn’t try this until the year that 3 released, borrowed it from a neighborhood friend…and proceeded to rent it like five times after that. I would have to double-check, but I think my youngest brother owns the disc now, despite he himself having no interest in the series…meanwhile, I still have to check out every game from 4 onward

If we ever needed a remake

[@GoldWabbitG]

This the game that NEEDS A REMAKE

[@Eastsid3]

Have a great love for this game, though it's been forever since I last played it. When you were talking about the AI though it flashed me back to one time when I was a kid playing and I was facing Minion. I was low on health so I hid in one of the temples, in a corner and Minion was driving around outside when eventually he slide/drifted sideways and hit me with like a power missile. I was in disbelief.

Also, if you put the game disk in your CD player you can play all the music tracks on it.

[@TotallyAwesomeWrestlingTAW]

Completely disagree about Sweet Tooth. I ADORE this version of him. His design, how he plays, his ending, everything

[@grizzlehatchet1]

Axels shockwave can be dodged by jumping. It's not "guaranteed" damage. But close enough

I waited forever for this game to come out when i was a kid! My younger brother and i both had our own ps1 consoles in our rooms, but he had to share a room with our baby brother, so was always bugging to use mine because the youngest had barney or some kid show on the tv, but we would play for hours trying to kill the hell out of each other! This game may not me worth the price of a cd these days, but back then, it was absolutely amazing! Then we waited and begged for T.W.3.... but thats a story for another day. Also, did you blow up the tiddies on the statue of liberty? Shoot a power missile at the statue of liberty
