Let The Cars Hit The Floor 2
Twisted metal 2- is a good as the first one. I love this franchise, playing it as young child, i remember just having fun, destorying cars.
The Gameplay: 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. Two player duel mode makes a return from the first Twisted Metal, and a co-operative mode allows players to fight through tournament mode with a teammate. However, there is no ending if the game is completed in co-operative mode.
The plot: In 2006, Los Angeles is in ruins and its citizens left to struggle for survival after the conclusion of Twisted Metal, a brutal contest held by Calypso, exactly one year earlier on Christmas Eve. Aboard his airship (running the ticker "CALYPSO RULER OF THE EARTH") in the skies over the destroyed City of Angels, Calypso wonders where the next Twisted Metal will take place; fourteen of the world's best drivers are already assembled to compete for whatever prize they desire. Ultimately, Calypso decides that the world itself shall serve as a battleground. In addition to the remains of Los Angeles, drivers will also battle in Moscow, Paris, Amazonia, New York City, Antarctica, Holland, and Hong Kong.
After defeating all the opponents in Amazonia, the player must face Minion before proceeding to New York City. The Dark Tooth boss fight takes place after the player defeats all the opponents in Hong Kong; once Dark Tooth (and his flaming head) is defeated, the driver meets with Calypso in New York to receive their prize.
Sweet Tooth is my favorite.

Let The Cars Hit The Floor Reboot
Twisted Metal- not to be confused with "Twisted Metal" is a ps3 vehicle combat. This game serves as a reboot to the franchise.
Gameplay: The game focuses heavily on multiplayer combat, including various online game modes with up to 4 player split-screen and 16-players online (the online gameplay was discontinued in early 2019). For example, the Nuke Mode is a new online game mode where the players choose a faction to play against an opposing faction. In this mode, each faction has a giant metal statue that is being held in the air by a helicopter, which the opposing team must try to destroy. In order to destroy these statues, the player must abduct the enemy team's leader, then sacrifice the leader to a missile launcher that will, in turn, launch a nuclear missile.
The person who sacrifices the leader and launches the missile has to control it to hit the opposing teams statue in the air. In order to win the opposing team has to repeat the process 3 times before the statue is destroyed for a team to win. There are four factions: the Clowns, the Dolls, the Skulls, and the Holy Men. The former having been announced as being inspired by Sweet Tooth and Dollface. The latter are led by Mr. Grimm and the Preacher respectively.
unfortunately this was the last game released in the main series. No new game has been released since 2012. I need my "Twisted Metal".
A great game and a excellent franchise.

Crystal (9 KP) rated The Wicked Boy: The Mystery of a Victorian Child Murderer in Books
Jul 4, 2018
This was a very descriptive, intriguing read. It kept my interest and I enjoyed it. I find it interesting that at one point Penny Dreadfuls are blamed for young male crimes (suicides, murders, etc) similar to how Video Games are sometimes still blamed today. Before that was Metal music, Horror movies, Rock n' Roll, etc.

Doubt there will be an anniversary tour for this album
A great introduction for an amazing progressive metal band.
This album solidified my love for this group of artists hailing from Raleigh, North Carolina. Overall this is my second favorite album from this band.

Ross (3282 KP) rated Metallica (The Black Album) by Metallica in Music
May 29, 2020
Rolling Stone's 255th greatest album of all time
Simply a superb album. The likes of The Unforgiven and Nothing Else Matters can be enjoyed by anyone. The rest of the album is generally a lot heavier and may take different tastes. Wherever I May Roam, Sad But True and Enter Sandman are simply fantastic metal songs.
