I think General Warthog's ending makes sense. He wants to lead the greatest army.

I came up with a stupid wish when I was young for an early TM game. “I wish for a bottomless drink!” The winner gets the drink but sets it down somewhere and forgets about it, it tips over and slowly floods the Earth.

That could be the intended twist that Calypso has for the wish, but then reverse double twist. You tip it over in the middle of the California desert, or the Sahara desert, and boom. Instant drought ender.

“I can excuse racism, but playing Twisted Metal 3 is too much even for me” lol

[@somuchtocook9159]

Honestly I think it’s just a value of power the abuser of power which is fairly standard in twisted metal often dreams of big things and often fall to their folly in the wish itself, the victim of abuse simply wants retribution or freedom which is a goal that everyone should always strive to maintain , which could explain why he is fine with someone wishing for babes, it’s a simple wish for desperate people, the abusers often wish for grand complex things

[@vcsa681]

This is pretty in character specially for Tm2 Calypso (Which is for me,the best version of him)

[@positivelyneagitive9060]

I think calypso loves to give the most simple wishes and let’s those wishes actually come true because he respects the simple joys of life.

[@gripesreality2126]

He also gives sweet tooth exactly what he wishes for in almost every single game so I think even though sweet tooth may confuse and anger him with some of his wishes calypso has some respect along with fear so he won't risk screwing over sweet tooth

[@skinnywizard6351]

​@GripesReality212 yeah sounds about right

[@psyc840]

I think he has a lot of respect for rational people who know that resurrecting a loved one or getting superpowers probably isn’t the best idea. He’s been dealing with those idiots so often that getting someone else must be refreshing. I would also like to point to Dollface’s ending in Black. Calypso knew what she truly wanted, and created a scenario where she could get it within the confines of her original wish. What a guy.

[@michaelboydston313]

Calypso definitely prefers to grant wishes to people that deserve their wish. It seems he hates these kind of wishes: -Superfluous or selfish, Whittlebones tower and rebirth, Amanda wats need for speed, and Capt Rogers appearance. -waste of time, practically all of twisted metal 3. -cruelty, the scientist and axel (head on), Needles in black and 2012, need I say more.

1:24:51 #16 I kinda wish for a Monkey's Paw twist for Cage is that Calypso successfully removes the part of his brain that makes him feel guilt from his murders... which was also the part that allowed him to derive pleasure from his murders, too. In fact, he's left an empty, emotionless husk. He still kills people, but not out of pleasure or the thrill of it, merely out of pure logic. At least he got rid of his guilt, though.

[@psyc840]

What would have been required for the complete removal of guilt would have been the removal of the amygdala, which is pretty important for emotions in general.

[@merilynne1548]

I love that idea but it wouldn’t work in Black. I feel like since it’s in Needles’ mind, he would never do that and would instead give a ruthless killer the chance to be the ultimate killer (just behind Sweet Tooth though, oc) But like I said I love that idea and I think that would be great for literally any other Twisted Metal game

[@overlordarcade]

On Bloody Mary's ending: Any chance the guy didn't actually say he could never love her, but instead it's a play on paranoia, and believing that it's something he _would_ say, instead? Maybe she finally got what she wanted, but had become too mentally damaged to accept it?

[@TorraShinjiro17]

That would be an interesting idea,

[@HarbingerOfBattle]

Here’s my take on the ending. Calypso promised her that she would find her true love, not a man who would love her. Every time she thought she found happiness, she committed acts of violence. Even after winning Twisted Metal the pattern repeats and she’s like “I’m gonna kill every man until I find the right one!” Well maybe her true love has been with her the whole time. Her true love is not a who, but a what! Whether she knows it or not, Calypso did indeed give her her true love, violence.

[@phantazmadroidz]

​​@@HarbingerOfBattlethat's basically what I've always understood of her ending. She fell in true love - with the act of killing men.

[@HarmonySword]

Imagine if Calypso ripped off his clothes and revealed a tuxedo revealing he is the true love she has been looking for lol

[@phantazmadroidz]

@@HarmonySword as a kid, my friend and I both were anticipating exactly that before we won her ending haha.

[@biggiecheese3753]

I think the reason why Minion in Black doesn't have an ending is because if he does win, he gets discovered by Needles, and Marcus gets erased by Needles

[@beyondeverythingspidermanm4491]

Wait needles is a cop???

[@sebastiancoar1991]

No, Marcus and Needles share the same body; so if Needles becomes aware that Marcus is Minion, in Twisted Metal Black, then Needles erases Marcus's consciousness from existing.

[@BruhGaming2003]

I think they originally wanted to give him an ending, but they programmed minion in as an afterthought of "well our other games had secret characters, so this one should have one", so he was a very last minute addition. That's why he doesn't have any custcenes or voicelines, and the idea of making his loadscreen tips a code was also because they didn't have a voice actor.

[@acemcwolf5445]

Personally, I think it's the opposite. If Minion wins, Needles gets repressed, Marcus wakes up and everything cuts to black. Like he's waking up from a nightmare.

[@jessejive117]

It would’ve been a cool showdown. Calypso would be the intermediate between the two and bring them together. Calypso and say let’s see who wins and then it cut the black. Which is fitting since that’s the name of the game. lol

[@Rdotmop]

I feel like it’s important to note that Auger and Granny Dread both show the desire to end the contest in their bios, but wish for something unrelated in the ending

[@zero1zerolast393]

Well Granny can make sense since her bio also say she just wants to watch TV to. So we can reasonably assume that she thought that her wish would prevent twisted metal from interrupting her shows

[@chipmcdip8629]

Thats what sucks about tm3, its actually my favorite to play because i love the graphic design of it (i think it looks better than two and is just more fun to play) but the put 0 effort in making good story building. Like how, how, HOW did they fuck it up so bad that they didnt even continue the stories they started in the game?

[@DoubleRBlaxican]

@@chipmcdip8629 agreed, the visuals were pretty clean (for the time) and I felt the cars were the easiest to control. Also probably because I was kid it was the only one I could beat so I had some good memories of trying to get every single ending.

[@drgamenstein3032]

I forgot about that, wasn't Auger just sick of rebuilding everything every year?

[@yocapo32]

Considering how we already have multiple endings where Needles and Marcus exist as multiple meta entities, one way of making an ending with a custom character is have Calypso congratulate the player directly, and ask them for their wish, but after a pause go on a monologue about the person he's _addressing_ doesn't exist in his world, and the one he's talking to is merely a puppet that will stop existing as soon as the player stops playing, and how he already fulfilled the player's wish of joining the Twisted Metal tournament, with the twist being that the OC was someone Calypso kidnapped and brainwashed to do the player's biding, so at the end the player accomplished nothing, destroyed the dreams and lives of the other competitors, and essentially killed an innocent person just so they could pretend to interact with the Twisted Metal verse for a few hours. "Thank you for playing Twisted Metal!", video feeds cuts off, "NO SIGNAL" screen, the end.

[@somebodyfamiliar6476]

Ah, ok then. So the oc ending is simply guilt. Good to know! Also I like how you had Needles/Marcus and Calypso as the factors that come into play.

[@yocapo32]

@@somebodyfamiliar6476 Hey, sometimes you need to kick the player in the balls to keep them interested, y'know? And yeah, Marcus thinking it's all a dream, and him believing the player is influencing his actions (Someone _is,_ but it's actually Needles, not us) inspired this idea.

@@JoobyMcGee It really sucks that TM4 is just a blatant piece of brand extension, because the idea of Sweet Tooth taking over the tournament is great in paper, the problem is the execution.

[@JoobyMcGee]

@@yocapo32 I gotta be honest I've played almost every twisted metal game with the exception of small brawl and 3 And you know what twisted metal 4 is not my least favorite, my least favorite is the PS3 reboot because I feel like it did more wrong in the face of twisted metal then twisted metal 4 did, Only 4 playable characters one of which doesn't even have a story mode, The fact that any character can drive any vehicle removing any uniqueness between drivers and vehicles and any personality, Having multiple different game modes that you're forced to play to beat the story, Having racing being one of those game modes because racing with twisted metal controls does not work properly And although it may be a bit childish to say this one of the worst things I think the game did was remove Cheat codes, I would not be a fan of twisted metal if they didn't have cheat codes Because I was not good at video games when I was younger so I would have hated twist metal if it didn't have cheat codes And not to mention the game feels slightly soulless, It has the feeling of one of those xbox live games that go live for like a few months and then just dies and no one ever talks about it again Oh yeah and the game focused way too hard on online in my opinion And while twisted metal 4 might have been definitely not a good game and is my 2nd least favorite It at least had some good ideas, good ideas that were executed poorly but still good ideas, Like a character creator, Calypso being a playable character, sweet tooth taking over the contest and some honestly really cool looking stages, nonsensical but cool, I will say I do not like how every single stage has a boss fight though

[@vahlok1426]

As someone who also liked No-Face in Black, take another look (or a first look) in the manual for Black. Its themed as a journal written by Frank leading up to, and during the first few days of the tournament. Great stuff, honestly. Hauntingly well written, especially the part where he describes the other drivers and his own mindset on things.

[@RvBnerd618]

I know, I miss game manuals so much, it's not just teaching you how to play the game or set up your console, but it has potential to fill in extra lore for players that are playing the game.

[@0ctopusComp1etely]

I have a personal fondness for Twisted Metal Black's version of Dollface's ending. It's certainly not the only time, but it's one of the rare times when Callipso goes above and beyond for the wisher, to their benefit. He actually grants BOTH of Dollface's wishes- the one she initially says for her mask's key, but also her own subconscious wish of getting revenge that even she wasn't aware of initially. It's an act of malicious kindness that lets her character growth really blossom, culminating in her actually realizing she's happy with who she is right now. AND the twist even retains the monkey's paw elements, but leaves the backlash on someone that actually deserved it. It might not be the absolute strongest character arc, but it's done very satisfyingly, making it one of my favorite stories in the series.

[@pinewolfpresents]

I played as Dollface the most, so that was the only ending I fully remembered and felt good about lol

[@salmon_wine]

It's similar to Mr. Grimm's ending, Calypso gives him everything on a silver platter. It's probably because Calypso is the ego of Sweettooth, sharing the experiences of Needles and Marcus, this experiencing both of their traumas. Mr Grimm is what it's like for Marcus to be stuck while Needles is in control. Dollface is the experiences that made Needles come to exist. But they are both pains that all three characters feel; cuz it's all in Sweettooth's head. Calypso gets vicarious satisfaction from those endings just like Needles and Marcus, you know he's gonna milk it and make it as good as he can.

[@Da_mutha_peckin_H.A._double_T.]

Dollface was one of my favorite characters in the franchise. It's e shame what they did to her character in The PS3 version.

[@DerrickBarrows]

I completely agree. I loved the character design and concept of Dollface and her ending was so perfect. He down plays it for being just another revenge story but a revenge story came in top 4 with NoFace. Dollface was incredible, took revenge on her abuser and accepted herself for who she is now in all her broken glory and then drive away in a giant blacked out semi of death. She deserves her own comic series

[@dominiqueodom3099]

Bravo,that's actually really damn well thought out.

[@hinotoritheobliterator6556]

Honestly, the weirdest part of The Joneses in TM4 is that they were smart enough to be extremely specific with the wish (down to mentioning the specific brands and addendums)… but were stupid enough that they thought that traveling in said RV with Sweet Tooth behind the wheel was a good idea

[@LonelySpaceDetective]

The specificness of their wish may not have been a matter of intelligence or genre savviness, so much as them being _very_ picky with what they want. Anyone's who worked in retail can relate, I'm sure.

The one thing that confuses me about Auger's ending in TM3 is that I recall his bio explaining he was tired of seeing the buildings he worked on get destroyed in the tournament, so he joined in hopes to put an end to it. How the hell is that synonymous with everyone seeing his inner child? Couldn't he just ask Calypso to make his buildings indestructible or something?

[@TankTheDragon]

[@FatherTime89]

"The soul of the first one dead" sounds like it was Captain Grimm's attempt to trick Sweet Tooth. Since he's already dead he can't be killed in a sword fight. It backfires though.

[@Nightmare-kn6ee]

Yep and all because Captain Grimm didn't take his bird off of his shoulder before the sword fight.

[@jacksonpeds5298]

Agent Sephard's ending is actually a well-written ending, since it is stated that Calypso gets his power from the winner wishing for something, therefore if you chose to ignore it he is powerless.

[@AtmanRyu]

Taking that in consideration, and Grasshopper and Sweet Tooth's ending for that matter, it makes the ending to Outlaw 3 even more depressing/facepalm worthy: As long as the wish isn't affecting him directly, Calypso can warp any wish in any way he desires (if he wants to); the brother was in the right about shooting Calypso, as he already knows that simply wishing the contest away won't happen (he tried that and got sent to space that time), but as long as you don't attempt to make a wish at the moment, he's actually vulnerable. The sister acted stupid at the worst of times, but also it was the brother's fault for not discussing what to do after winning Twisted Metal. Tragic.

[@Supperdude9]

@@AtmanRyu Didn't they have a year in between Twisted Metal tournaments? You'd think they would have come up with a solid plan within those 365. And this is from the sister who modded her car to fly in space, which meant she is one of the few who actually outsmarted Calypso. And then she goes and gets dumb. Though... maybe that was Calypso's payback on the sister? She outsmarts him, so he makes her dumber? Dunno. But she was the one who suffered.

[@WillieManga]

And I love how Shepard seemed to almost be tempted to make use of Calypso's power but had to remind himself that he couldn't trust him. It had a surprising amount of tension for the series. Even in Sweet Tooth's Black ending we knew he was gonna take a different kind of blood. Yet Agent Shepard gave us some uncertainty for a moment and it ended with Calypso hinting that it wouldn't be the end of it. It caused a good amount of intrigue that I kinda wish was expanded on.

[@Modusiticate]

spectre's ending in black could've worked if instead of no man being able to love her, it's revealed that they *did* love her but her insecurities caused her to *feel* unloved. she'd be given a man who physically couldn't *not* love her, but she'd feel as if he was lying to her and seeing another woman because she's too scared of rejection and therefore subconsciously constructs the narrative that they don't love her. paranoid schizophrenia often leads to effects like this, albeit with less violent results.

[@sweetpepino1907]

An idea for an ending I've got: A scrawny weakling who's been pushed around his whole life asks Calypso for the body of a pro wrestler, so he can finally stand up for himself. With professional wrestlers coming in every shape and size, Calypso has the full gamut of human size to play with. But I'd say give him the body of the heaviest wrestler in history, Happy Humphrey, at 800lbs. "I know just who you can have the body of. A man from the annals of history, a living legend in his own time, who sat atop the record books." And for abject cruelty's sake, have him almost immediately die of cardiac arrest. "Perhaps you should have been more specific!"

[@gamman1]

I like the idea, but what if rather then almost immediately dying of it. After the wish it cuts to him about to stand up to who ever, (let's say bullies), and looks like he about to beat the shit out of them, before clutching his heart and falling over dead from cardiac arrest. Leaving to the calypso line.

It’s twisting the word body again, but in a different way. If anything the original proposal is more like Warthog in 2 because the end result is “My body isn’t what I want.” If we were to keep the original premise of “you didn’t specify the wrestler” it’d be less contingent on the player knowing about wrestling to give the nerd the body of a sumo wrestler rather than this one specific 800 lb guy

That would've worked too, but I think the existing ending underlines Sweet Tooth's character even better. He's not a trickster, he's about as straightforward as you can get. He sees Calypso's solution as a downright insult and doesn't even consider drinking it.

[@theinvincible316]

At first I was on board with Minion’s lack of ending in Black being lame, but I just watched your TM:Black series of videos and I think it helped me recontextualize it a bit. You make the point a lot that Needles and Marcus Kane are both warring sides of Sweet Tooth’s psyche, and that Black is a representation of the world/contest through Needles’s mind. So I present the idea that when Minion wins the contest, it’s symbolic of Marcus prevailing over Needles, and thus that world, and by extension the game itself, ceases to exist.

The Outlaw ending in Black follows the fact that he was so eager to take down the bad guys that he just fired without really caring who he hit, with the result being that he got the bad guy and killed the family too. So he wishes to go back to do it again and not miss a single shot. Also, fun note, the terrorist who shoots Stone is one of the same cell that our amnesiac Roadkill had infiltrated.

[@krizash]

Came here just to say that. Thank you for putting that Clarification up. Outlaw was always my favorite.

[@WillieManga]

It's important to note that the Lost Ending equivalent mentioned that his family died to extreme racists as well, possibly even the same cult he was sent to apprehend. Either way, his wish was the most noble. Even the most innocent of competitors would have to kill a lot of people to get what they wanted. Outlaw wanted to go back in time to save a family, which doing so would get his life back on track. While that's still a halfway personal reason, his wish meant that in the new timeline he wouldn't even join the competition and thus not even kill a innocents. It's like Grimm's 2012 ending where he wants to fix his own life to avoid ruining others'.

[@Handlelesswithme]

I thought it was meant to imply the guy he shot was Calypso that’s how he lived Cause we know calypso lived. You even see that his left eye is covered up until the ending

[@crabbmeat7882]

Yea the first time it is unclear if it is a terrorist or calypso without the left eye but the second time it was definitely calypso considering the eye meaning he was either the terrorist the whole time or he replaced the terrorist during the wish which is why he lived and could kill stone but either way I personally think its a better ending than it got ranked

Conceptually, that could be even scarier, despite cut content not counting for this list. It was unfinished, thus causing the placeholder voice acting to not be as good as it could have been. But if finalized, it would have been pretty screwed up. Bacon did end up talking about the deleted endings, so feel free to go to that video too.

[@MrBda241]

I love Sweet Tooth's ending in Head-On, for the main reason that it shows Sweet Tooth that he isn't just a blindless killing machine, no it shows that he can be just as devious as Calypso if he wanted to. The way he figured out that Calypso's powers have set rules to follow, showing that he's been learning everything about him as the years go by. And as a bonus, if it's following Black lineage, that permanent fire on his head is gone, meaning he literally broke the curse too. Just by the sound of his ending, he enjoyed every moment of it.

Calypso might twist the wish a bit by retrieving the plane’s broken carcass, which the pilot is content to fix up.

Something I realised while watching TM1's lost endings is just how beautifully B-Movie style *BAD* Grimm's ending is. You can clearly see a guy's face through the helmet which they didn't even *TRY* to hide with lighting or make-up (Hell, The lighting's the reason you *CAN* see Grimm's actor's face.) And the arm, Oh lord, the ARM, It's just a Halloween skeleton decoration they ripped the arm off and put a leather glove on, Then waved in Calypso's general direction. The fact that he doesn't have a magical artefact or doesn't kill Calypso for his soul, And instead just ties him up and hauls him off on the back of his bike, While Calypso's consuming the scenery like it's a gourmet meal is icing on this beautiful disaster of a cake.

[@xanderlowe1543]

I remember a long time ago, I read a fanfic of different endings for Twisted Metal 3. It had things like Auger wishing his buildings would never be harmed during the Twisted Metal tournament. Eventually, he had buildings in every city on Earth, becoming phenomenally wealthy and forcing Calypso to set up his tournament in outer space. Thumper's ending was telling Calypso to close his eyes. It turns out Thumper made a deal with Outlaw's drivers to have his criminal record expunged, correctly deducing that Calypso would manipulate the wish, and Outlaw would be honorable. Needles just wished to kill people. Mr. Grimm kamikazed Calypso to get his soul. In Flower Power's ending, the remaining humans rip her apart in fury that she destroyed their homes and clothing. They were really well done endings that fit the characters perfectly. Shows how little the actual developers cared about things like plot or story.

[@WillieManga]

Speaking of fanfics, there's a concept for a potential Twisted Metal Black type game called Twisted Metal Jailbreak. As per my implication, yes, it's unofficial and made by a fan. Each character profile has ideas for intros, interludes and epilogues. A few of the endings are pretty much endings from the game series, like how Mr. Grimm had a similar fate to Sweet Tooth 2012, but when Jc013 makes a clever twist, he REALLY makes a clever twist. And he even throws in some "benevolent Calypso" moments. One of the endings is an SA victim getting revenge on her monster, another is someone wishing to be undefeatable, only being killed by a piece of debris. Definitely better than TM3's endings.

[@Anomaly188]

David Jaffe has said that he knew some of the guys from 989 San Diego who made TM3 and 4 and he could tell they really didn't get Twisted Metal or what made it's lore work. All they really understood was 'Be careful what you wish for because Calypso will likely screw you over,' so they just relied on that without any kind of subtlety or cleverness. They were also lacking in ideas and obviously unwilling to go to the darker edges of humanity for inspiration. That's part of why Black is the apex of the series because it really puts the spotlight on how unhinged and desperate someone has to be to think that participating in Twisted Metal to get what they want is a good idea.

[@WillieManga]

@@Anomaly188 Notice how the desperate ones are taken advantage of while the vengeful ones are given exactly what they want? Dollface is a mix of both. She desperately wants to be free of the mask so joins Twisted Metal to prove herself worthy of freedom after so long blaming herself. But in the end, she has to go all or nothing because she must take the key and her dad's life, though the latter was changed to her boss in the final release. If they stuck with her dad it would have been harder for her to decide, but more satisfying when she made her choice. Either way, the symbolism made it an ending I love so much. After all she went through, she decided to stop blaming herself and seek justice for abused people like her. Black isn't perfect but it is still interesting more often than not. My favorite twists are ones that feel deserved and when Dollface considered that she wasn't the bad one, I liked where her final act was going

[@his-sa-yots2692]

What is it called?

[@laddgadfly8147]

I’d argue your not giving Mr. Grimm’s ending in the 2012 game enough credit. I think the twist of taking “send me back” to mean that I’m sending current, crazy scary looking you back in time is pretty clever. I’d assume what he had in mind was that he’d be that innocent little boy just with the knowledge he has now, which is why I think it works very well as a twist. Also, I think it’s some pretty good tragic storytelling. Mr. Grimm in that game traces all his mistakes back to when his father died, and thinks that if that could just be changed, his life would go better. But, in a way, his ending shows he can’t escape who he has become. He’s no longer the type of person who can save his father; he’s too far gone for even his younger self to spare him.

On one hand, it would really suck if you were unable to control your power and it affected you, especially if it doesn't seem like it would be possible to twist your words into having that happen. On the other hand, I guess Calypso making it apply to you too would be fair, despite your intent. I'm that sort of person too; I hate bad deeds going unpunished, very much like Agent Stone in Black, but what would justice be if we punished the innocent in the crossfire?

Honestly the Head-On ending for Sweet Tooth has me curious even beyond the "Calypso has to grant wishes even when he doesn't want to". Like, how do we even know that's the first time someone has done that? How do we know that all versions of Calypso we see aren't just someone else who won Twisted Metal, stole his body, and disposed of the last Calypso? Personally I think it's really cool viewing "Calypso" as a title more than a person, especially considering how varied his appearance has been between games. There could have been dozens of minds inhabiting that singular body over the span of the competition's history.

In defense of General Warthog's ending in TM4, there are definitely a lot more toy soldiers out there than any other type of soldier. Gather them all up and they surely must be the greatest army, right?

[@ryanwood6754]

disagree. Toy soldiers is the idea of a man who thinks being in a war or the army is all about just killing and taking. its the over the top stereotype of a soldier and some do exist. But true soldiers (the ones that get shit done) are calm, focused and level headed. I mean look at groups like the SAS they get shit done that some deem impossible or would take many soldiers to pull off. They are some of the best and brightest soldiers in the army. I mean as a Brit myself I look fondly upon the Ghurkhas because they are some of the best shooters in our entire army always winning tournaments and they have done things some deem just impossible or stupid to do. But they succeed because they keep themselves calm and train non stop, they know how to turn themselves off and focus on the moment and the task at hand and don't let emotions best them. There are real storied of them taking out powerful Terrorist members almost like it was nothing and even in ww2 a famous story of a Ghurkha who was the last man standing and fended off 100 German soldiers on his own. They are heavily respected and loved amongst our military. Nobody likes the toy soldiers

[@harleymitchelly5542]

I think the way it works is incredibly subtle. Think of it. Bloody Mary wants her true love. That's what she wishes for. Calypso did EXACTLY what she asked for. He got her her true love. Is it Calypso's fault that Bloody Mary is such a broken, impossible to please person that the only person that could possibly do it is someone who has been forcibly lobotomized to do whatever she asks? And Calypso probably left that little bit in him to say he'll never love her to point out the obvious fact she refused to consider, being so deranged that she thinks the police sirens sound like wedding bells, *your true love has no obligation to love you back.* You got your true love Mary. You got a man who will NEVER disobey you. And you got Preacher level confirmation that there is NO man who will love you Bloody Mary, you're insane. It's absolutely brutal, and fits pretty well with the fact that if we're talking about who is the most outright unfixably deranged in TM: Black, Bloody Mary takes the (wedding) cake. At least Preacher realized he was insane. Bloody Mary... she's completely gonzo at this point. Not a rational thought left about her wish.

[@TheHippyProductions]

​@@harleymitchelly5542yeah, even the nameless dude in the ski mask has a sensible goal. and the guy with no sensory organs...yet Bloody Mary is just an insane vicious circle in of herself where she always goes after what she thinks she wants but it's impossible to really have because instead of working on herself she just obsesses over what's impossible for to really have because she just obsesses...over what's impossible for her to really have...because she obsesses...

I feel like Orbital's wish in TM4 could've been improved if he simply stated 'I just want to be normal, I just want to be like everyone else' rather than clunkily state that he doesn't want to be the only one with half a face to illustrate what the monkey's paw wish would be. It would certainly make the twist a bit more satisfying in how Sweet Tooth twists the vagueness of his wish to mean that 'being like everyone else' could imply that everyone else is also like how he is.

Maybe after the first time (when he killed the family by accident), Calypso got up and walked away while Stone was trying to end himself? This time around, he waited till Stone looked away and then when he looked back he shot him.

I had no idea how far back and in depth this series went. I always saw this series as "that one game with the ice cream truck." This video has been a lot of fun learning about the characters and quirks of the older games. Great vid.

[@lancerguy3667]

Hammerhead's is actually my favorite Small Brawl ending. He wasn't specific enough, and paid for it... he asked to be a rock star, and Calypso made him one: a 'pop' rock star. It amuses me because I know SO damned many music hipster snob types who would absolutely be mortified by having their wish monkey's pawed in such a way, and it's a bit more nuanced than the usual TM cruel twist ending.

[@NoahDaArk]

Oh yeah, that’s a really good point

[@MarianaPall]

Yeah, but the look he gets on stage(with his band mates) does not match a pop rock band from the era. Also pop rock bands tend to look like bands(they play instruments and such), even if they are "boy band-like" (like The Jonas Brothers or Hanson). I suppose that if they did this accurate though it would be confusing.

Sweet Tooth's *None Wish* in Twisted Metal Black was the best wish because he does the predictable after their is term limits on that wish. Awesome ending and made Sweet Tooth look golden

[@NEEDbacon]

Also, it's clever when you go with the "Takes place in his head" theory. Like Sweet Tooth WANTS the fire to stop burning his scalp. But his WISH, is to keep killing.

[@AtmanRyu]

21:53 In Micro Blast's "defense", he got turned into a statue, because he said he wanted his wish "for an eternity". So like Orbiter, it's about the character saying too much out of stupidity for the forced twist of the wish. This definitely doesn't change the ranking of the ending, just adding that detail.

[@Reagan1984]

He also did say "like a skyscraper".

[@concludedhail40]

Oh that *Short* temper of his, always getting the best of him………

That said, unlike Orbiter's wording, I can see where Microblast was going with that detail. He probably wanted to be immortal, he just didn't expect it would make him into stone.

[@daxindal8502]

I really liked the Head On ending for Grasshopper, because I think it does a lot to show what kind of monster Calypso has become. The Grasshopper ending for 2 shows that he cares for his daughter and in Head On he invited her into the competition so that she could wish to be brought back to life, but the wish that she wanted would have lead to him never receiving his demonic powers. Calypso had an option to get back everything he had lost and instead chose selfishly for power. If you go Sweet Tooth's ending stating that he has to grant wishes, twisting the wish in the way that still caused the car accident, but instead of Krista dying she is left in a most likely permanent coma, being as good as dead.

[@NihilisticWhim]

I am glad Grasshopper from TM2 rated so high. She was the first ending that came to mind, I remember being a kid and working so hard to get her ending because the boss 2-shotted her pretty much IIRC and then hating it because she died.

[@ThatRandomEncounterGuy]

I actually find it kinda funny how Twisted Metal: Black, the darkest and most horrific game in the franchise, is ironically the one that seems to pivot so much from how the wish is twisted. Most of the wishes either give them exactly what they wished for (No-Face, Cage, Billy Ray, Raven, Mr. Grimm) or they end up realizing by the time they win that what they want isn't what they needed (Needles, Dollface, arguably Charlie Kane's son; though the latter was by Calypso himself rather than the son's decision to let his father go willingly), with characters like Preacher, Bloody Mary, Agent Stone, and Axel either being their own downfall or still ending up with a bad end without some ironic twist added by Caplypso, with Black being probably the only exception--not counting Marcus Kane/Minion just not having an ending at all.

[@ryguy9876]

That's because Black was going for a different style of Monkey's paw. Pay closer attention to the endings and you'll find that the ones that payed out with zero consequences for the wisher were those that involved the murder of others, meaning that the price for Black's wishes is blood, be it someone else's or your own.

[@Hwje1111]

The only one that actually got screwed over through no fault of his own was John Doe

[@SavageGreywolf]

Here's fixing the TM1 Spectre ending: Calypso brings Scott back to life but his family has moved on, quite reasonably believing he is dead, and think he's an impostor. He ends up arrested for harassing them and placed in a mental asylum for his 'belief' that he's the very obviously dead Scott Campbell. Also the TM4 Joneses ending was ALMOST decent. If they'd just been less specific and asked for a chauffeur, and then Sweet Tooth made himself the chauffeur to kill them, that would have worked. Them asking for Sweet Tooth specifically ruins it and just makes them too dumb to live.

[@StriderVM]

Or a dumber and easier to film version : He got too excited to get back to his family, he gets into a vehicle accident, getting himself killed before meeting his family again.

[@HareRaisingRobot5]

Dude, I couldn’t even begin to imagine the effort that went into making this. I would have fainted more than half way through making the video (not saying I’m lazy, but having to rank over ONE HUNDRED ENDINGS from worst to best in ascending order would be daunting for anyone!) Bravo! Though my only gripe would be the #1 spot. I honestly thought Sweet Tooth’s ending from Small Brawl would take that spot. Yeah, we see him kill Calypso in the Black ending, but since Twisted 1, we know that anyone can take revenge and even kill him if they don’t make a wish and know what they’re doing. Now tying him to the front of a vehicle and giving him a taste of his own medicine while literally at the wheel? That’s comedy gold, cathartic and shows Sweet’s personality justly!

[@Nightmare-kn6ee]

Don't forget that it was Calypso's fault that happened, since Sweet Tooth wanted a little ice cream and Calypso decided to just steal an ice cream truck, which I guess still had the keys inside and decide to let him go inside and decide what he wanted from it instead of giving him a thing of ice cream.

The most heartbreaking part of Preacher's ending, to me at least, is that he could've come back from that. Like, at that baptism, he didn't have complete control over himself. There's a very charitable argument that he more or less blameless for what happened there, simply because he didn't have the mental stability to really stop himself. He could've have come back, but his religiousness, the fact that he identifies so much with being a preacher, and the fact that he's basically on the outskirts of society at this point, prevents him from finding a healthy solution that doesn't involve religious mania or...THAT. And then there's what I think really makes that ending, in spite of how small a detail he is; He doesn't take The Permanent Option right away. He tries to find other paths, he tries another way out, but because he's so absorbed in his religion and his wrongdoing that he basically can't function otherwise, and that keeps him tortured until it quite literally destroys them. In spite of the somewhat over-the-top presentation, at its core this is something horrible happening to someone, at arguably their most vulnerable state them trying to find a way out over and over and over again, and when that doesn't happen...like...that HAPPENS, man. ...Made myself sad.
