    I've been playing it both online and off, wifi, adhoc, story, CO-OP (contrary to IGN) since release and all I can say is DAMN. this is a DEEP game for a launch title. buy it!

    This game is rockin. If you haven't played Twisted Metal before, youre in for a real treat. Every character has his/her own reasons for entering the TM Contest in hopes to get their wish fulfilled. But there's alwas a twist. What I really like about this game is the fact that it 's replayable. You'll spend loads of time exploding opponents and exploring the areas. While playing the PS2 TM Black, I found myself glued in front of the TV screen for hours beating the game with all the different cars and finding out their twisted endings. It's fun just to watch cars blow up (even if it may be yours). I think this game has a good chance of being the most popular launch game on the PSP.… Expand

    This game is awesome the only thing i thought was boring is the story mode i got it 2 days before i beat it but other wise this game is the best twisted metal game ever.

    This is he perfect way to start off the psp. although it doesnt have a internet browser or promised downloadable updates it is stil the perfect game. I got this game and wipeout pure and ive played this for more that 15 hours now and wipeout for about 5. Good old twisted metal feel, good old twisted metal sounds, good old everything. If the umd disk had just a little more capacity it could have been longer but that makes up with the awesome flawless mutliplayer.… Expand

    Where as playing Head-On alone has its moments, playing with seven other Twisted friends via wireless connectivity is a blast. Blowing up each other with an onslaught of weaponry from steroid-induced wheels never grows tired. There is no slowdown, and the pace is just as quick as if you're playing the computer.

    A colorful cast of characters, a great presentation, exciting shooting action, and support for wireless multiplayer competition over the Internet combine to make this game one of the safest bets you can place when choosing your first PSP games.

    In spite of a lacking co-op mode, Twisted Metal: Head-On offers plenty of replay value and classic fun.
