Help converting someone to Twisted Metal?
08/02/13 at 00:26:33
 
Tried to show my girlfriend the essence of my childhood by loading up some TM2 and she was not impressed. Said the graphics were too terrible for her to try it. After that blow to the childhood I busted out TMB and she said it was too complex for her. I tried to teach to play for a little while, she seemed interested for a short while. She said the game was too old. Hoping to solve my problems I went to TMX and she liked it at first but watched the first cutscene and decided it was too graphic and violent. Anyone help me convert this lost soul?  Grin haha

If she doesnt like TMX there is no hope for her.

She seems a little harsh...but there probably isn't much hope for her. 

However, I did manage to convert my friend(a dude) into Twisted Metal, but all he wants to do is 1v1 against me, and refuses to play the story or online with others, but whatever.  I haven't even tried introducing Twisted Metal to my girlfriend yet, but it will happen someday.

Anyone that doesn't want to instantly climb into their bunk with thoughts of jiffying Jaffe after witnessing Twisted Metal is obviously a subhuman equal to the handicapped and Europeans and should be cast away from your life immediately.

Try Head-On. It is easy, not too graphic and just generally more accessible and light hearted compared to other TM games.

I got my girlfriend into it. She's alright at it but gets frustrated easily against npcs. She hasn't mastered the driving mechanics and using jump effectively and just spans weapons and just...needs to play more.

I thought switching from the ps3 to the old tm4 would help but only made it worse.

just let her practice a lot. Customize a car to be pink or purple or whatever color your woman likes, might give her an incentive to play

Sounds like she mastered it more than you think.

Also to add to your car colors, I would say to put some flowers skin on because the bitches love the flowers but the skin editor went bye bye. Don't worry though as some people will have you believe the game is dying and that is why it is gone. That is a complete lie and It will be back!

At least you admitted it was a step back.

Now go back and say a dozen Hail Mary's for admitting you played TM4 you infidel
