Twisted Metal is poised to make a comeback, as PlayStation Productions preps a television series based on the cult car combat series. But the game – especially for those who played PS1 in the 1990s in the United States – will always have a special place in PlayStation history, as proven by this conversation between the hosts of Good Morning Football.
In the video, Peter Schrager and his co-hosts are asked about their favourite video game, and it prompts an excitable 45 seconds of reminiscing. Kay Adams quickly refers to the “the fire”, recalling antihero Sweet Tooth, of course. Kyle Brandt then interjects: “Twisted Metal was like an R-rated Mario Kart.”
We wonder if the crew will be sitting down to tune into the aforementioned show, which is being described as an “action comedy” involving a courier who must traverse an apocalyptic wasteland to deliver a mysterious package. We sincerely hope there’s life in the franchise yet – if only because it’s clear Schrager would be down for a PS5 version.

Yes this and vigilante 8 amazing please we need these games back!
@Senu I would die for a V8 comeback!
@EVIL-C yeh I hope more people do and they notice these were amazing games and they could be even better now🙂
I really would love to see a new Twisted Metal game, whether it's a reboot, a spinoff or a sequel.
Are Sony testing the waters for a Twisted Metal comeback game with stuff like Destruction All Stars and the T.V. show?
Unlikely. But I can dream.
@Senu
As soon as i saw Vigilante 8 I immediately flashed back to playing it on the N64 as a kid. Even though i probably havent thought about the game in about 10 years
Remastered twisted metal 1 & 2 is all I need.
Give me sly cooper and resistance also.wordvup son
@Senu A third offense would be marvellous haha
im so irritated ..just why , give us the games man. why create a product as a video game first , and then expect ''gamers'' to get excited over a tv-show of it instead of a new game after almost a decade. how much money is being wasted on this ?
if this is for advertising the franchise for future game purposes , what makes you think movie-heads & tv watchers will all of a sudden want to buy a whole console just to play the game(s) ?
you're advertising to a different crowd . making a movie is one thing , but a tv-show goes on & on. movies are one and done with big profits to be gained if its successful .
Twisted metal 2 is my favs in the series, I hope sony make new twisted metal
They need to do it in a way where it has both open city transversal combat, and Mario kart like races, and even an arena type, I'd buy that in a heartbeat
Twisted Metal 2 is a pure classic. I'd love for it to come to PS4/5 with online MP. I don't even care how updated it is, just give it. The TV show strays completely from the game's tournament plot, which makes me think it it mas as well not be Twisted Metal honestly.
Twisted Metal Black was amazing back on PS2. Bring it back, Sony!
