I'll probably get flamed for this, but I always liked this series better than Twisted Metal.

  Don't see why you would. I think V8 was a better game as well. Although, it has been ages since I've last played it.

    This is supposed to be a spiritual I'76 remake. Really it's just not. But at the end of the trailer you can see the front hood of Taurus's caddy....

  Twisted Metal was good, but it was nothing compared to V8. Slick Clyde ftmfw.

  Twisted Metal 2 was better than all of them, but the V8 games were better than the later TM games, for sure.
