ZeroTolerance Writes: The second offering in the Xbox Live Arcade Block Party delivers a trip down memory lane with Scrap Metal; an overhead racing game that combines the mechanics of classic racers such as R.C. Pro-Am and Super Off-Road with the combat mechanics of Twisted Metal. This combination brings yet another fun-filled experience to Live Arcade even if it has some minor drawbacks that keep it from being to-tier. If you have fond memories of tossing endless quarters into Off-Road back in the day, or simply are looking for something to keep that flame of hope kindled for a new Twisted Metal, Scrap Metal is definitely worth checking out.
This week's Achievement HUNT, brings you Jack vs. Ryan.
More of everything would have really helped this enjoyable arcade racer move up a gear, and here’s hoping it receives some extended care in updates, as there’s certainly potential for this more violent shade of racing game. But right now, you can only get Scrap Metal in black.
