Built by a team with limited experience in the gaming industry, the original Twisted Metal raced on to PlayStation in 1995 and revolutionized vehicular combat games. A short single-player campaign and weak graphics left much to be desired, but these flaws were easily overlooked considering fun, high-octane gameplay and a competitive Duel Mode kept players engaged for hours on end. Sony found repeat success with Twisted Metal sequels, which released at a relatively brisk pace well into the 2000s. Not all installments were created equal, though.
