In concept, Twisted Metal 2 is a demolition derby which permits the usage of ballistic projectiles. Players choose a vehicle and an arena-or a series of arenas in the story mode-to engage in battle with opposing drivers. A variety of weapons are obtainable by pick-ups scattered throughout the stage. The objective of the game is to be the last remaining player.
I avoided playing this for 20 years, pretty dissapointed. I got it cause I was sick of my other TM games it is just a better version of TM3 nothing really epic
I literally just shed a tear watching this. I haven't played this game in 20 years. Me and my friend used to play this likely everyday over one summer.
Not quite in tears but a smile never left my face watching this. I'd say it's closer to 30 yrs since I last played. It was the last thing I did before bed every single night for 2 yrs. A quick run thru as SweetTooth then off to bed. It was the only Twisted Metal version I liked. I'm real close to buying a PS1 just so I can play this. I even tried to like the new TV series but after 3 episodes I was done with that.
Because you played on an old CRT. These games were meant to be played on TVs of the era. Only way to get it looking good on HD screens is to upscale the resolution with either a HDMI adapter or through emulation.
I think he just meant this was probably the pinnacle of gaming graphics back then. We didn’t know how good graphics would eventually be. I remember playing ps2 games thinking dang these graphics are so good. Looking back, they weren’t very good but they were for that time
@@dr_edward_richtofen69 most ps1 games looked a little rough even back then lol, I remember my friends and I making fun of the graphics after playing the n64, we called it paper playstation. We only had praise for the ps2 though when that came out.
@@Hallo_215 It has nothing to do with CRT TVs. Its just our imagination and how brains memory works. PS1 resolution was 512 × 240 it was same quality back then as today but decades ago we had nothing to compare to, that's it. ))) Grass was greener, ice creamtested better )))
Damn, this video brings awesome memories! It's been 22-23 years since I played this game last time. I think I still know most of the codes for special weapons, shields, jump...
OMG! You've sent me 25 years back into the past! In 1996 I discovered the first part of this game thanks to a schoolmate that had PS1 and showed it to me. Then, in my neighborhood there was a lady that would rent her PS1 consoles (such is life in the tropics!) and along with my cousin we played the second part, I mean this game and through many Sunday evenings we played until we made it till Hong Kong where Axel killed one of us and made us lose our last life. We were so frustrated and sad we never tried again, maybe we'll buy a secondhand PS1 and try it again... Love and great memories from Lima, Peru 🇵🇪.
One of the best Twisted Metal games ever made. Been playing that game for hours even destroying things and my enemies especially Grasshopper. Nothing cannot matched this game.
My main problem is the Roster is mostly TM1 cars w/ little difference and the control is too floaty near ramps. In TM1 the cars had weight and didnt fly around like paper. Also its dumb that Sweettooth is in TM2 with NO CHANGE to his truck at all

Man I would love to see a remaster or even a complete remake with PS5 graphics!!! I wouldn’t mind adding extra characters, levels, or unlockable players…..I played this game damn near everyday with my neighborhood friends 😢
Such a classic. I still play almost every other day and I am 43! Yes indeed the best TM ever made. I wish they would do a revamped edition for PS5. Love the sound effects. The scream as you destroy an opponent is so satisfying. Rockets are still cool to watch sore through the air. Napalm is a fun weapon to use, challenging but if you hit it just right it is so satisfying to see your opponent engulfed in flames. Soecials are unique. I love shadows shoot and detonate. It just adds a whole different dimension to the game.
I think TM1 is way better more straigh forward weapons and action. Graphics in TM1 are arguably better. Also in TM2 the Riccochet Bombs blow up on you if youre moving forward too fast unbelievable they didnt catch that in testing
Back in the 2000s we use to play this among a group of 4 people. If you survived last, you keep playing. If you got killed first, we changed the player. And we were there eating chips, drinking soda and talking about life while videoplaying. Man those were very good times indeed.
Twisted Metal 2 was my all time favorite next to Twisted Metal 4…..I spent sooooo much of my free time playing this game with my friends lol. Same with Twisted Metal 4…..I’ll always remember those days 😭 I know it wasn’t as good…..but I also loved Vigilante 8!
Still remember all the hidden secrets for each level: The Hollywood sign in LA The Sweet Tooth billboard in Moscow The paintings in France Getting on the roofs of the Amazon buildings Finding Santa, Statue of Liberty, and the God Mode password in New York Finding the passwords on top of the Hong Kong trams My dad loved any combat game, he'd let me stay up cause we would play together. This, NFS III, and NFL QB Club 97 when we first got PSX. My cousin loved Crash Bandicoot, she helped me beat Sonic and Super Mario World too
I just found this game at goodwill. It was scratched as fuck but I thought “eh, why not, it’s only like 50 cents” and I just popped it in the Ps3 a few minutes ago. What a fun game man
my my sister, cousin and i would get shipped out to grandma and grandpas house for 2 weeks out of the year every year to a trailer park in Palmdale, CA. They had a Playstation with this game in the room we stayed in and i dont think ive ever played a game more in my life than this one. Seeing this brings back some good memories. i stil get shellshock trying to defeat Minion. Those were the days.
I remember having twisted metal 1 and wanting this game SOOOOO bad when it came out. I ended up trading a couple games to my friend for it. So worth it. I beat it with every character and blew up everything I could on every map.
I miss this. This game is the sole reason I got a ps1 (rather--begged my mom for one for months). I played my friends and was like yo I NEED this. Looking at it now I don't know how those pixels seemed so plentiful...
One of my favorite games as a kid. Tm2 was the best imo. Still have cd from my childhood. Just hooked up ps2 and played it with my son for the first time, literally my life coming full circle lol
I remember playing this when I was 5 and didnt even know that I could switch weapons but loved the destruction it’s been 20 years and I miss when life was easier
On Antarctica I would use that one teleporter, which would fall off later, to be on that far off island and watch as the others would battle each other in the spawn forever while drinking my juice box
OMG those kindergarten level endings! - I am Calypso. Choose your prize. - We want to fly! *lightning* - Your wish is granted! *jumps off of building and dies* - Oh what a pity, I never got the chance to hand them the plane tickets. *laughs hysterically*
Oh my gosh y’all! I played the hell out of this game back in the day!! I loved blowing up the Eiffel Tower then going and hiding in that one building in the middle of town and mowing down b**ches!
many do not know that this game can be played on PC over the network! we have been playing in teams of 2v2 for a long time, and sometimes 3v3, if you want to return to childhood, join us, friends)
This game was amazing. Amazing graphics, sound effects and soundtrack, completely unique game play and story, and very easy to play. It is a perfect game for a group of people.
Ah the memories of playing this game growing up. Twisted Metal 3 was pretty cool to. Sweet Tooths evil laugh is one the most memorable things about this game.
Hoo boy, this game... It's an amazing game don't get me wrong but I remember my dad, well ex dad played this game a lot when I was a kid and he will be all super focused and if anyone and I mean anyone disturbs him while playing this game he gets super pissed off. Not to mention if he dies once and I mean once, he will quit the game and try again till he beats the game completely without any deaths. That's how serious my ex father was back then and the same goes for Twisted Metal Black whenever he plays that game. My ex dad's favorite character he likes to play is Thumper.
I remember this: I use ricos to knock your opponents off rooftops of new york, the exact same thing to knock them off and fell into the water of Antarctica.

What did you think of it?
@Tyler Neal know all the special button combinations and where all weapon and health pickups are
@Tyler Neal better than the first?
@Tyler Neal is Twisted Metal 2 better than Twisted Metal 1 in your opinion?
@Tyler Neal ok, thanks for answering! :)
The best twisted metal game ever made
No doubt
I'm agree
Agreed I remember when this first came out. All the other ones after this were shit.
For the ps1 maybe. I feel like twisted metal black for the ps2 was the best
Hell yeah
Did anyone come here for childhood nostalgia
Definitely 🗿✨✨✨✨
Yep
Yes! :D
I always played as the cop cause she was hot and my brother would play as the motocycle guy cause he was cool. Simpler times.
I played this like 25+ years ago as a teen and loved it so much. Forgot how bangin' the soundtrack is.
I avoided playing this for 20 years, pretty dissapointed. I got it cause I was sick of my other TM games it is just a better version of TM3

Play the game pure u fkin cheater any1 can win eith codes I beat it with every character and I didn't cheat once
Agreed.
But check out those graphics.
@@urdadshusband781 you're a bitch if you don't cheat
@@urdadshusband781 its not cheating if the programmers put the codes in the game for the player to use and advertised them

played this in 97 i was only 10 years old, i can never forget this game and the memories.
Yeah me too. That was the game of my childhood.
This just needs a graphical remaster and a slight little tuned up then just released how it is 🥵🥵
Just like what they did with crash bandicoot
Man I would love to see a remaster or even a complete remake with PS5 graphics!!! I wouldn’t mind adding extra characters, levels, or unlockable players…..I played this game damn near everyday with my neighborhood friends 😢
Only if i know how to mod the pc version 👀

I was simply maniac for this game
Still love it!
I'm watching this as a movie. A movie of my childhood. Thanks to the uploader.
Thx!
i still remember playing this with my big brother it was the best game we’ve played that time
These are the memories I have, playing these games with my older brother before he passed.
2nd best Twisted Metal next to Black IMO. I'll always remember being a child in 1998 and playing this masterpiece.
You got it backwards, 2 was CLEARLY the best Twisted Metal, ur buggin
Stage 1 soundtrack is what I'm playing when the world blows up
I was in the fifth grade when this came out and one time I snuck it into school in my pencil box to look at the cover during class
Twisted Metal 2 was my all time favorite next to Twisted Metal 4…..I spent sooooo much of my free time playing this game with my friends lol. Same with Twisted Metal 4…..I’ll always remember those days 😭 I know it wasn’t as good…..but I also loved Vigilante 8!
Still remember all the hidden secrets for each level:
The Hollywood sign in LA
The Sweet Tooth billboard in Moscow
The paintings in France
Getting on the roofs of the Amazon buildings
Finding Santa, Statue of Liberty, and the God Mode password in New York
Finding the passwords on top of the Hong Kong trams
My dad loved any combat game, he'd let me stay up cause we would play together. This, NFS III, and NFL QB Club 97 when we first got PSX. My cousin loved Crash Bandicoot, she helped me beat Sonic and Super Mario World too

Because there is more than graphics to games. The fun factor for so many games is just such a high standard. Many new games just lack it.
The best twisted metal no doubt. And Ive owned and beaten 1-4 and black.
One of my favorite games as a kid. Tm2 was the best imo. Still have cd from my childhood. Just hooked up ps2 and played it with my son for the first time, literally my life coming full circle lol
Awesome, dude, so cool you still have it
I can tell this isn’t your first rodeo when in New York, you immediately blasted the Statue of Liberty and killed the pool boy.
I love all this destruction!
This game fulfilled what every game should - it's satisfying
I still remember God Mode for this game. I don’t think I’ll ever forget it. The good ol days.
Thanks for the video. It sure brings back memories :)
A favourite of mine growing up. Mr Slam FTW!
Thumper was my guy
Who else here because of the series on peacock
I remember playing this when I was 5 and didnt even know that I could switch weapons but loved the destruction it’s been 20 years and I miss when life was easier
The theme that plays in the title load screen is badass!!!!!
played the hell out of this game as a child...your using minions special...love that....:) !!!!
Wow brings back such memories 💔 if only …
I am 40. I played this game so much.
Love the detail of Mr.grimm hanging onto his sidecar when he takes enough damage
On Antarctica I would use that one teleporter, which would fall off later, to be on that far off island and watch as the others would battle each other in the spawn forever while drinking my juice box

Thank you for a walk down memory lane.
The nostalgia is strong here..
0:20 if you don’t know, that truck is Darkside. The very same truck that once was in twisted metal ‘95. It’s in the menu labeled history.
This game is a certified classic. My first game ever as a 5-6 year old kid I played this for hours. Soundtrack is literally BUMPIN too 🔥
Twisted Metal 2 was the best of the Twisted Metal series.
This game, RE1, 2, and 3, THPS 1&2, Destruction Derby, Jet Moto, etc. What a time to be a kid.
Dont forget Dino Crisis
My top 5 PS1 games
1. MGS
2. Resident Evil
3. Twisted Metal 2
4. Grand Turismo 2
5. Driver
I had this game. Ps1. My car warthog... loved it...!
This game was amazing. Amazing graphics, sound effects and soundtrack, completely unique game play and story, and very easy to play. It is a perfect game for a group of people.
Omg the nostalgia. Loves this game so much.
Oh Axel, you could have wished for Calypso to free you from your contraption and would have easily been able to face your father fully intact
To be fair, with how Calypso exploits phrasing, Axel would likely be in a grave if he wished that
I remember this game being quite difficult back in the day, and yet so fun! Warthog FTW
Warthog was my guy!!
What a amazing game!!!! Great memories!
Ah the memories of playing this game growing up. Twisted Metal 3 was pretty cool to. Sweet Tooths evil laugh is one the most memorable things about this game.

So many hours and so many good times with my cousin. Man o man. Wish I can have those back
Twisted Metal predicted the Segway and hoverboards about 5 years before there first was unveiled. Crazy
I got this game for Christmas with my ps2 good times
TM2 was the best out of all of them because everything was in open space..no buildings to hide behind..no tunnels to hide under...just a all out war
Those Cinematic Endings We're Look
Like a Motion Cómic Book
Crazy how far games have come in the past 25 years . Makes you wonder what they will be like in another 25 years. Scary to think
Sony Playstation Classic.... missing opportunities😔
