I only played split-screen for about two hours, but I really enjoyed it...the only problem I have is that it plays the exact same as all the others, and I got bored after a while

I'm assuming the "campaign" is pretty good?

Reasons I won't:

Don't like PS controllers, blue rays... couldn't care less, never watch movies at home. And 95% of my friends play on XBL.

I haven't got a chance to play it yet but I will soon. I got to play Mass Effect 3 first.

I hear the online part is pretty awesome. A lot like warhawk but with cars instead.

For people that have played the game, what's the single player like? I wouldn't mind grabbing it to do some multiplayer shenanigans with my fiancee, but I'd want it to have decent single player as well.

I have to say I'm very disappointed that there are only three characters for story mode. I mean, three? Seriously? What about all the other great characters TM brought us?
But yeah, the game is a whole lot of fun.

I was reading an Article that said that the Dev's considered the Vehicles their "Characters", not so much their humans.

I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.

Just another way to cut down on content. I saw a similar quote for Mass Effect 3 and the reason why there is less characters. They cut down the roster to focus on a more detailed roleplaying experience with the smaller cast.

That I don't mind-- cutting extra characters for more detailed roleplaying is fine for a game like ME. But with Twisted Metal? You get the same amount of cutscenes you had in previous games, but with only three characters. Twisted Metal is not a roleplaying game by any standard, but the endings were still one of the best things about the game. Seeing the way Calypso twisted their wishes was always priceless.
What I see here is a sad trend that's been developing in video games over the past couple of years-- toned down single player content for enhanced multiplayer.
Definitely a problem for me. I play video games so I don't have to interact with people.

Twisted metal always was a multiplayer game IMO, I didn't know it had any story whatsoever.

Does it feature Rob Zombie's Super Beast?

Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

It's something you'll keep seeing. It's just plain cheaper to make content for multiplayer. This is also why DLC tends to be for multipler.
