Twisted Metal heading to PS3?
Code deciphered in new PS2 release.
Top Men on the Internet have uncovered a hidden message in Twisted Metal: Head-On: Extra Twisted Edition that says the series is coming to PlayStation 3.
As spotted on NeoGAF, kids from GameFAQs discovered that random numbers displayed through the Dark Past video can be substituted for corresponding letters to give the message "Twisted Metal is coming on PS Three".
This comes a few days after David Jaffe of developer Eat Sleep Play told GamePro that "if you want to know what our next game is, it's absolutely revealed if you have a sharp eye in Twisted Metal: Head-On: Extra Twisted Edition".
"It's a really cryptic riddle we put in there," he said.
Twisted Metal publisher Sony told Eurogamer this morning that it could not comment on the reports.
Twisted Metal: Head-On: Extra Twisted Edition - out now in the States - is a budget-priced port of the PSP game Twisted Metal: Head-On, which features all sorts of added bonus content to keep fans of the series happy.

HANDS OFF!!! I want G-Police on 360!!!
But I agree I never saw the appeal of this series, personally I thought they were crap and Vigilante 8 or the PC game (I can't remember the name) were much better examples of this genre.

"You mean Interstate '76?"
Yeah that was it! Class game! Oh and Colony Wars would be cool, so many great games out there they could remake for PS3/360!!!

I just fucking wish that Sony would realise that the Psygnosis back-cataglogue contains more than just Lemmings. Most of their games were superb, and most of them are screaming out for new-gen updates. Hell, if they even just hurry and put 'em on PSN that'll be a huge reason for me to buy a PS3 right there.

As for Twisted Metal on PS3...could be good...but a PSN release would probably sell better.

Damn I forgot Sony took them over! Your right about the back catalogue though.
Oh well, there it is Sony, a reason to buy PS3. I 'll have Destruction Derby, G-Police, Shadow of the Beast, Colony Wars, Barbarian and Krazy Ivan next gen remakes PLEASE! Not asking much am I?

Also, it will most probably be a bd-rom release, and a completely new game, due to:
"what we learned in Calling All Cars is that right now on console we're not interested in doing what we thought we were going to be doing entirely as a company, which was doing PSN console-based small, $9.99 downloadable arcade games. We're definitely not exploring that."
straight from the Jaffe's mouth itself.
EDIT: Sorry, I mean Twisted Metal PS3 has been confirmed! (forgot to give a title...)

@bad09 - yep they are 100% Sony property, but it doesn't mean someone couldn't do a similar game in a new setting, instead of one more effing WWII FPS or hip hop street racer. Funny how the space shooter genre died last gen if you're not gaming on a PC.
Ah, we can but hope.
Twisted Metal was pretty good on the PS1, and there's potential here, especiallty with a full online version. But after playing Full Auto Battlelines, which royally sucked b@lls, they need to make it damn good to revive the car combat genre and make it much better than a warhawk tank fight without all the other bits.
