PSX Extreme writes: When it comes to intense vehicular combat, there's Twisted Metal, and then about a dozen posers. In other words, if you want the best possible action experience featuring crazy vehicles equipped with ridiculously insane weapons, you know where to turn. It came as fantastic news to all TM fans when we learned a new installment would soon arrive on the PlayStation 3. But rather than wait around for that, why not try out Twisted Metal: Head-On: Extra Twisted Edition for the PS2?
It boasts a port of the PSP's Head-On along with a bunch of extras, including three "lost" levels from 2001's Twisted Metal: Black, the "Twisted Metal: The Dark Past" documentary, and even a few new characters! Priced at the very appealing price of only $20, this is a no-brainer purchase for any fans of the series, and a definite "consider" for anybody else. And remember, the sad days of 989 Studios ruining the third and fourth entries in the series are long gone...Jaffe and Co. came back for Black and haven't relinquished the reigns. Thankfully.
GameZone's David Sanchez goes back and takes Twisted Metal: Head-On for a ride. Does this car combat title, which was previously available on the PSP and PlayStation 2, withstand the test of time?
As much as I like darker Twisted Metal games, I really dig the more lighthearted style of Head-On.
This twisted metal is great fun online and locally. My biggest gripe is the connectivity issues. SERIOUSLY FIX THIS SH!T.
KingPS3.com writes, "Since the release of the God of War collection late last year, similar PS2 collections have been proposed and hyped by gamers for release on the PS3. The next collection on the list for release, The Sly Collection (Sly Cooper games), was revealed at E3 and received much praise.
Just yesterday, Sony boss Shuhei Yoshida said that the company would love for more PS2 game collections to be made, but they "are not ready to announce anything yet."
However, just today, a listing on Amazon's French website showed that a collection called The Team Ico Series would be coming to the PS3. So that makes three collections for the PS3 so far, what's next? Here's our top five picks for what should be made into collections next."
I would love to see a Suikoden collection.
I would also like Jak collection and a Ratchet collection.
Gamervision: "Getting an early look at DC Comics' solicitations for February of next year sure has its advantages. One of them happens to be seeing just what their action figure plans are for the coming months. Well, next July, you can expect some really sweet ass figures based on Sony characters like Nariko and Sweet Tooth.
This won't be the first time that DC has plasticized Sony properties. The company's DC Direct branch already has plans for a Resistance 2 line, as well as a series based on Ratchet and Clank. We reported on those a while back, and I'm still looking forward to getting my hands on that Ratchet series this December. Why they're choosing for Nariko and Sweet Tooth to get figures this long after their last respective games have shipped is beyond me, but that's not going to stop me from getting my hands on both of them. That Nariko figure is particularly sweet, what with the flowing red hair and all. Not to take anything away from that Sweet Tooth figure, but I've got enough shirtless male gaming characters wielding knives adorning my desk as it is."
argh i hate this game! bought it when i got my slim, its one of the few games ill never finish and im quite happy with that.
3 years later... oh, heres where we put that Nariko doll. :)
Ratchet and Clank is cool, I would play with them in my bathtub.
I found this game entertaining. Was one of the best games in the early days of ps3. But an action figure? Meh.. too late too. It's sad this game didnt get the attention it deserved. Kai was cooler btw imo.
