Rogue Trip, Car-combat at its' zaniest...

Rogue Trip is definitely one of those car-combat games you need to own. Like its' predecessors(Twisted Metal 1&2), it's full of frantic, crazy action. Only this one is a bit more zany and humorous, not as serious as the Twisted Metal series. It came out around the same time as Twisted Metal 4 but blew the doors off of that game. These guys know car-combat up and down. Sad to say, though, It's the first and last of its' kind. Seeing as Singletrac(Incog. Inc.) got its' TM license back, we'll probably never see a sequel to this one. And that's a bummer. I woulda loved to see one.
If you love car-combat or just love car games, look into Rogue Trip...you won't be disappointed.

Great game, but not a great multiplayer title.

The creators of Twisted Metal 1 and Twisted Metal 2 makes another great game. This game is definitely a good predecessor to the currently famous Twisted Metal: Black.

This game is basically a car-combat game with a mission statement: pick up passengers, earn some spending cash, and take them to see the sites around the country, from the Washington, D.C. Mall to Hollywood. Throughout the game, you basically use the cash to repair your car when it's damaged and upgrade weapons to attack your enemies better. The controls are similar to Twisted Metal, and for the veterans of Twisted Metal, it shouldn't take too long to learn these controls. The characters are also remarkably similar to Twisted Metal 2, but this game offers a humorous take on Twisted Metal. You have characters ranging from Ratman to Agent Orange, and their vehicles are really insane. The Specials range from a cutter-saw of the Ratmobile to the Stinkmissiles from Agent Orange. The bosses aren't too hard either, and they are beatable, once you figure out their vulnerabilities. The graphics and scenery are actually very spectacular, even for the Playstation. The sparkle effects of missiles is a good piece of eye-candy. The cars even have a nice shine to them! The arenas are actually fairly large, and they are not claustrophobic and small like Twisted Metal 3.

The major failure lies in the multiplayer, especially if one of the players is greedy. Both players have to assist each other for it to work properly, and often, one of the player will die in the process. Within two or three levels usually, the game will be over.

Overall, a great game, and this game should be included in any Playstation library.

Underrated

I thought this game would be a bad Twisted Metal imitation, but I was surprised to find something better. It's like Twisted Metal, but with more features and great boards. It's so addictive, especially charging weapons, and when you beat the game with each character, a secret is unlocked. I really dig this game.

Great

True Peer to TM 1 and 2

The third vehicular combat game from the same team that developed the first two Twisted Metal games is . . . more of the same (and that's a wonderful thing). Lots of exploding stuff, big levels with lots of hiding spaces, tight control, cool characters, and the addition of the "taxi" missions to add a new wrinkle to the genre.

Those expecting the ultra-violence promised in Twisted Metal Black should look elsewhere. The game is heavy on cartoon-style violence, gutter humor, and rubbery control. Though some of the cars have gruesome bios and horrific weapons, the blood is absent in favor of sick jokes and comedic touches like a weeniemobile whacks other cars with its huge member, a psycho beauty queen who unleashes exploding poodles on enemies, and a not so subtle jab at Sigfried and Roy on the Las Vegas level.

Not the best, but damn near close

This game has it all, wild cars, great weapons (especially the guided missle and homing poodles), and great levels. 989 studios totally ...........all over the Twisted Metal Series and ruined TM3, but its no problem, just get Rogue Trip...there the same people who made the first two TM games, and you can tell from the way this game plays. Most importantly, the cars have great control, and overall, theres a great amount of replay value to this title. Highly recommended.

Next best thing to TM2
