Hungry for more knowledge about the upcoming PS3-only Twisted Metal? Then you should have been at Comic-Con this weekend, where creator David Jaffe led a panel discussion on the game andrevealed important things like who you'll play as in single-player (Mr. Grim, Dollface or Sweet Tooth), whether the game will support 3D or Move (it won't), and what the cutscenes will be like (live-action, with voice-overs and lots of slow motion).Not content to stop there, Jaffe followed up on his blog,davidjaffe.biz,on Saturday, showing off a couple of stills from the cutscenes (one of them obviously unfinished, with the promise that Sweet Tooth's head will be on fire in the final version). He also took a momentto react to concerns voiced by fans, specificallyones about there being only four familiar characters in the single-player campaign (the fourth being the Preacher, who apparently won't be playable).
Jaffe went on to say that he and his team are looking at ways to "address the concern," but that it isn't clear whether or not they can do so with the time they have left to work on the game.
From what we've seen (and played) of the new Twisted Metal, variety - at least in multiplayer terms - doesn't look like it'll be a problem, as there seems to be a pretty robust selection of vehicles in spite of the limited character selection (and bear in mind that each character also has a gang of dress-alike henchmen backing him or her up). We'll reserve judgment until we've seen more, but what's your reaction? Let us know below.
