Put it in prospective mags. I was 21 when I joined. I'll be 27 this year. We're all old. Very very old.

That aside, I thought Prime Evil was a interesting looking car too bad there was no way to unlock it.

I'm now 30 fucking 2. Cry me a river.

TM3 and TM4 were horseshit, and are one of the reasons Microsoft rose to fame during the PS3 error. Sony dropped the ball on some of their key franchises and I feel like the only people that enjoyed them were younger, easily entertained kids who didn't understand gameplay > story or gameplay > graphics. I know I had cousins younger than me that didn't mind playing it, but I played enough TM2 to know there was no depth. However I will say TM3/4 had one thing that TMPS3 2012 did not...

Missile Dodging.

TM 3.

Loved
- The car selection screen is pretty cool. Would had liked if 3 had helicopter POV like TM 1&2 had and that you could play at that arena.

-The napalms were pretty good there, even if they missed they still caused some small explosions.

-Cars battled between themselves making things less one sided than TM 1&2.

-The game was still fun.

Hated.
- Cars loves to flip a LOT which is annoying and really brings the game down.
- The characters were terrible except Outlaw and Flower Power.
-Cars handle terribly. And with turbo even worse.
>The homming was really bad.

TM 4.

I loved everything but the characters. Only exception was Orbital and Quatro, those guys are welcome to other TMs.

I liked your Jones/Warthog crossover.
I used to think the same and it'd be cool if this was actually canon.

I like how Mr. Slam is in TM4. I still can't believe he's in there.

Positive: They're two games in my CD rack with black labels that look pretty.

Negative: It takes half a second time to dust them every couple of months.

Has anyone actually tried more than two players though? I'm sure the games are okay with more than two players for deathmatch and whatnot. I felt that 1v1s in the first two games were fun for a little bit but then got boring not too long after.

I wonder if an overclocked PSX could fix that.

The third and fourth TM games were kind of garbage fires because the first and especially second games, in spite of their flaws, were executed extremely well, and have a lot of imagination. Had they been the start of a separate IP, TM3/4 might have faired better. That said, they have a few redeeming qualities.

I think the concepts of the stages were good. TM3 continued the "world tour" approach and TM4 had some interesting gimmicks such as Sweet Tooth's room, the futuristic Neon City and the carnival map at the end. Problem is, they were really boxy and empty, lacking the dynamic, frequently inventive designs of the previous games.

The new weapons, such as the speed missiles, improved remote bomb, the environmental weapons and the multiple land mind types were great. I don't think any TM game has ever dropped the ball on weapon variety.

TM3 at least has a lot of classic characters, and the new ones such as Auger and and Firestarter aren't bad, as far as design/handling goes. I don't have much anything positive to say about the others, or the almost entirely new cast of TM4 which is frankly just too cartoonish.

Twisted Metal 4 plays really well for a game that is not Twisted Metal. If they had marketed it as something else it wouldn't have gotten near the amount of hate it received. TMIII is a pile of garbage. The standard for bad car combat games.

TM3 had the worst levels in TM history. Some of the levels from the prototype looked better than the levels we got in retail. It looks like they were going to make San Francisco at one point.
