Twisted Metal 2 is basically the high water mark for the late 90's car combat fad. Few games were ever this good, even in the Twisted Metal franchise itself. And most people probably don't even know there was an official PC port.

This is my first video game ever and I'd love to buy it off GOG. I first played the game back in 1997 when I was 2 years old. I love this video game and it's one of the best video games out there.

Most TM fan believes Twisted Metal the greatest TM game ever made!!! There's some great arguments for this. Some truly iconic characters you'll remember for years to come. Some of the finest endings they ever done!!! Some of the absolute best levels as well. Some of the finest boss fights. Not to mention, some of the best specials in the franchise. A great soundtrack with some amazing sound effects. An friend who introduced me to a lot of PS1 games. I originally played TM2 through him a long time ago. There is the lesser known PC port that had online multiplayer. Yes TM2 was the first online TM game. Virtually everything surpassed the original Twisted Metal. TM2 is a true timeless classic. A lot of people surprisingly missed out playing this. There's some great secrets you won't expect. Like keeping attacking the Statute of Liberty to reveal stuff until it's destroyed. There's even a track pulled straight out of Jet Moto 1. TM2 is hands down one of the finest TM games ever!!! It's also one of the absolute greatest car combat games in existence. I do think a lot of people go nuts when they see TM2 on here.
Twisted Metal 2 was absolute chaos in the best way possible! It took the vehicular combat formula of the first game and cranked everything up—bigger maps, crazier weapons, and more insane characters. How could anyone forget Axel or Sweet Tooth! It should be in the GOG by now

Twisted Metal 2 was one of the few PlayStation games Sony legitimately released to PC. It just makes sense. Plus, there's an active community for it, including keeping the online going. It's such a fun game that should definitely be returned to PC, one that i definitely had tons of fun with.

Outcast
OutcastOutcast is a 3D third-person (with an optional first-person view) action game with adventure elements. In search of five sacred relics, the protagonist travels through the five continents of Adelpha (plus one tutorial island). Each land has its own landscape (mountains, lakes, forests), populated areas, as well as dozens of minor problems - small quests that the hero is required to solve. Most Talans populating the world can be conversed with about a variety of topics. A large portion of the game consists of finding key characters and performing quests for them; some of these are optional, though most must be completed in an adventure-like linear fashion in order to advance the plot. Cutter is free to travel between the continents using special portals. Apart from exploration and completing quests, Cutter will also fight many guards and creatures. At his disposal are six futuristic weapons (railgun and others); ammunition for those guns is scattered around and can also be produced by mixing items. Aiming help is provided in the form of laser sights. Sneaking up to the enemy and punching him out silently is also possible. Gadgets such as a holo-decoy can be used to help Cutter gain the upper hand in combat. The player character can also jump, climb, swim, dive, crawl, and ride a local animal known as Twon-Ha for faster travel.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
