Twisted Metal: Black Online

200240/100
ShooterRacing
Twisted Metal: Black Online delivers a brutal, vehicular combat experience where strategy is forged in the fires of wanton destruction. Its core loop of arena-based battles, where you hunt other players with rockets, mines, and other deadly contraptions, remains compelling due to the diverse roster of vehicles and the sheer variety of map-specific hazards. The game's darkly comic tone and surprisingly deep customization options, which allow players to tweak their rides, kept people hooked long after the initial novelty wore off.

About Twisted Metal: Black Online

Details
Black is on a mission for another person to locate and murder Calypso. However the person who sent him has never before been seen and it is never revealed why exactly he is carrying out this mission. According to the original Twisted Metal created in the year 1995, in TM:B the entire storyline is darker, and is referred to as an "alternate universe," in comparison to the other Twisted Metal games. As stated, it is because it is all in Needles Kane's head. But there is even more to TM:B. Black, the driver of Manslaughter, made an appearance in TM(1995), Darkside's driver Mr. Ash's "lost" ending. In that ending he wants his demon "black" back, which makes one believe Mr. Ash is Satan. When he gets Black back, Calypso gets very upset. This is because Black is sent on a mission to kill a darker, more evil Calypso in the "Black" universe.
