Anyone who has fond memories of wrestling with one of the three steering wheels on the arcade classic Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off Road will have a fair idea of what Scrap Metal is about, namely hurling loud cars around small isometric tracks while jostling for pole position. Anyone who's played Twisted Metal on the Playstation will also be familiar with Scrap Metal's penchant for strapping guns to its rogues gallery of buggies, hot rods and monster trucks.
