Twisted Metal 2 is a must have for any serious collector
As for control, the vehicles seem to react exactly as you would expect. Mr.Slam is more sluggish while Twister is quite loose. There is a balance though....Vehicles that have poor maneuverability (like Mr. Slam) have increased armor while some with poor armor have devastating weapons (like Mr. Grimm). Each character is capable of winning the tournament and claiming a prize from Calypso (now with ending movies!).
Graphics for the game are not top notch by today's standards but do not detract from the experience in my honest opinion.
This game is what compelled me to buy the PlayStation in the first place. Far from being your ordinary, run-of-the-mill shooter, this game features characters that have there own unique personalities. For instance, Roadkill will stay away from you until your health is low and go after you mercilessly to finish you off. Other drivers (like Axel and Outlaw 2) prefer hit-and-run tactics. One of the more annoying vehicles in the game is Spectre, whose ghost missiles go through walls and always seem to target you. Thumper likes to sneak up behind you while you are battling another vehicle and activate his powerful flamethrower to eliminate your health bar. Each driver has his own effective methods to take you out. The major dilemma is choosing who you want take out first!
With a descent array of weapons and advanced attacks at your disposal, the methods of enemy annihilation seem to be endless! The question is: Will you be dishing out the punishment or will you be on the receiving end? With strategy, timing, and driving skill, you can overcome the odds and watch as your opponents become a pile of twisted metal!
