Holy shit check out this month's EGM!
Sweet Tooth is a forced villain
Better than Mario KartNintendo should have funded Retro's Twisted Metal clone
>>12917908As in he forced himself on your mom in the back of his ice cream truck?
>>12917908isnt he more of a hero?
>1996Meh, too late. I don't go much beyond 1994.
>>12919489I recently looked through my stack of old vidya mags and the change between '94-'95 was like watching the soul being sucked out of the industry. And insult to injury, all the reviews of 16-bit games from '95 onward being SHAT on for being ugly and outdated, while the early 5th gen games that have since aged like dog shit were all given great scores. Reading those magazines now is like reading the insane ramblings of mentally deranged retards in a mental asylum.
>>12919521I sold all of my post 1994 magazines years ago and made a ton off of them. I was especially glad to be rid of my collection of Next Generation magazines. Fuck that rag and everyone who worked there.
>>12919521They were right. 3d was the future. It was an exciting time.
>>12919521I remember something like Dracula X getting trashed in reviews even though it it looked and sounded fantastic for a SNES game. Late gen titles are usually great on most systems since they've figured out by then how to completely optimize the games for the hardware
>>12917884Has Twisted Metal 2 become a forgotten game? It was huge at time and everyone I knew played it but it feels like people seldom talk about it much anymore. Stuff like FF7, Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil are still held in high regard but I hardly ever hear this game discussed now
>>12919567Playstation games were normiecore. Normies don't hold onto the past, they play the latest, most popular thing.
>>12919567twisted metal series is remembered more for 2 player. no one here has friends anymore so they dont play it anymore or talk about it
>>12917908>>12919485>>12919486He's called NEEDLES KANE.SWEET TOOTH IS HIS VEHICLE.
>>12919573That makes sense why I didn't like it much when it was new either. Didn't have sibling to play with and I much preferred Vigilante 8
>>12919904>>12919904This is false because it really depends on which depiction of the character you are discussing. In Twisted Metal: Black Needles is portrayed as the personification of the Sweet Tooth character and not Needles Kane as it is later explained the game takes place inside the mind of Marcus "Needles" Kane who is also the driver of Roadkill in Twisted Metal 2 but in this game he is the mini boss character Minion who you unlock and play as in order to read a series of encrypted texts to reveal the storyline twist. The character in OP's post is neither Needles Kane nor "Sweet Tooth" from Twisted Metal: Black but a demonic depiction of the vehicle Sweet Tooth, however. Lol, my name is Calypso, and I thank you for playing Twisted Metal!
