  • Oh hey, it's another ranking video. A bit of a smaller one this time around. I was going to do every Twisted Metal special attack ranked from worst to best. But I realized that one's going to be much longer, and to take much more preparation. However somebody suggested I do every boss ranked from worst to best. And I thought that would be a good idea, seeing as there aren't as many bosses in the Twisted Metal franchise. By my count, and interpretation there's 24. The only difficulty in ranking the bosses is determining what counts as a separate boss, and what counts as a different phase of the same boss. But that only comes up a handful of times, and it'll only be taken on a Case by case basis.

    The Tower Tooth boss fight is a bit different in the PSP version. He has a extra attack were he shoots a bunch of homing Sweet Tooth heads from his head. It is by far the most powerful attack.
    I have no idea why it isn't in the PS2 version.

    • @darkstorm_omega
      @darkstorm_omega Před rokem +27

      It's not? I guess that explains why he's such a cheeseable boss in the PS2 version.. this might be a bit of a stretch to say, but I would honestly believe that the barrage attack you're describing is supposed to be some sort of preventative "anti-camping" measure, since it had to have been intentional for the boss to not be able to reach the elevated areas in the arena, at least by normal means.

    • @minion568
      @minion568 Před rokem +10

      there's actually a few things missing from the ps2 version. like darktooths sound for their special. my guess is needed space for the other stuff that was on the game since it's a three in one disc. if you count the third person roaming a game.

    • @Proutbedaine

      ​@@ashblossomandjoyoussprung.9917 Neither handheld consoles of Sony (either the PSP or the PsVita) could play PS3 games with the same capabilities of the PS3. Not even the Vita. (The Vita had ports of PS3 games and vice-versa, but it was visually downgraded ports (PS3 > Vita) or visually upgraded ports (Vita > PS3) with typically cross-saves features.
      And the PSP was weaker than a PS2. And typically the ports from the PSP to the PS2 had visual upgrades (In regards to the good ports anyways. That took advantage of the more powerful platform of course. Not all ports are always well made sadly).
      If the extra Tower Tooth attack on the PSP version did indeed exist and they indeed removed that attack from one version to another when porting it...then the most plausible reason is probably for balancing purposes I presume. Whether if it was worth doing so and needed to be balanced that way, that's certainly up for debate. But often, when that kind of port is made, there's some stuff like that that some developers just make decisions on.
      As for the allegedly missing/changed SFX for Dark Tooth's special weapon the other person mentioned, that's certainly not a space issue even if the PS2 version had a lot of stuff on it. A simple SFX audio file takes marginal amount of space on something like a PS2 game DVD. My suspicion is either something that somehow got "lost in translation" when doing the port. Or it was an audio bug maybe.
      I know my copy I have on PS2 (even if I purchased it brand new back in the day and is still mint clean) had a ton of audio bug issues for some reason. Audio SFX not playing sometimes, and most often, the BGM would stop playing for the rest of a playthrough until I rebooted the PS2 or, oddly enough, if I went in Sweet Tour mode and played the intro it would make the BGM come back on until it bugged out again lol. I looked online back then and I remember people mentioning they had similar audio issues and different ones.

When you loose any boss in 4 they go for a health pickup so just remember where you were and what health pickup is nearby. Also sweet tooth is so easy, he follows you so just place mines and remotes and its over in like 2 minutes. You can fatal funnel him on the rollercoaster.

We lived in the boonies and the nearest store that carried the game was like half an hour away. we lived right between my brother's school and his girlfriend's place... so I gave him money and he dropped the game off on his way back through. I got up 2 hours early just to play the actual game before school, because we'd gotten our fill thus far on the TM1 demo on the playstation demo discs... and I wanted to see the actual game. Having that practice helped, but I still remember how fulfilling it was, even staring at that game over screen and seeing sunlight outside... GOOD MEMORIES MAN, they'll save your life.

  • @agent8117

    I'm passionate about twisted metal and I would like to give my opinion on certain listings while I watch it. The only game I haven't played being Small Brawl.
    Number 24: Not sure if TBP knew but you're able to aim upwards during the iron maiden fight so you're able to use more weapons against her. She was a pain for me to Gold Rank on Twisted Difficulty for me.
    Number 23: You're able to cheese Sweet Tooth by using the only portal on the map and putting 3 proximity mines where it teleports you.
    Number 18: Twisted Metal 3 was the first I've played and I find Minion being placed low is understandable but needs to be touched on at a higher difficulty.
    Number 12: I liked Primeval in Twisted Metal 3, it was a difficult fight, BUT. Growing up with Twisted Metal 3 and with a brother that played more than I did before me meant my brother taught me a trick to beat Primeval. With Thumper you're able to use your special which isn't a flamethrower but a weird wave to push Primeval into that pit with arrows leading to a deathbox that I mentioned on Number 23.
    Number 4: Twisted Metal Black isn't easy to beat, Minion's Fight is a pain to beat because the way the ai functions during it. Not saying the ai is bad but when it comes to trying to destroy the last panel, Minion makes it difficult by just spinning around a bit making your window of opportunity fairly small.
    Number 3: Cousin Eddy is easy to beat. The concept that TBP mentioned of dispatching Rednecks then proceeding to blowing up the trailer makes me chuckle. I feel Cousin Eddy doesn't deserve this spot because it's replacing Minion from Black specifically. Looking at Twisted Metal Head On, I feel Minion making an appearance as a boss would make the atmosphere darker but the atmosphere of Twisted Metal is supposed to be just that, Dark.
    Number 1: I love the concept of Warhawk as a boss in Twisted Metal Black but the difficulty of black makes this fight a nightmare. I don't remember a time in recent memory that I've beaten Warhawk mostly because I stopped playing solely because of difficulty. My brother hasn't even gotten close to beating Warhawk's fight.

    The 2012 slander hurts my soul, especially seeing the Black favoritism! I think I played the beta a lot and the game mechanics are only odd if you actually never got used the meta, so Iron Maiden first phase was never an Issue. My main was never tanky cars, so the ring of death is not an issue I faced too much. I agree that last phase was a pain! I was on Reaper on the last thread that fight, but it was tense and great fun, but I'm vindicated knowing I'm not the only one who had that crash!
    Sweet Tooth Carnival deserves slander, I'll go back to the the bosses before touching that monster.
    Brother Grim I love as a fight and I love using my assistant in the fight, however I can understand you not liking the "cute" stuff but for me it shows me something that too me other bosses couldn't do before hand.
    which was tell a story with the fight and show the mind set of the person you were going to control next(Which why I like Carnival least too.) Having the Icon characters taunt you, hearing their convictions to win, or seeing how *Twisted* your character is during the fight. I have fond memories in Brother grim fight after the assistant set the bomb, I made a B-line to save his ass, just to have Sweet Tooth's mania kicked in and wanted to see blood. My 12 year old head was so shocked, "We been with this guy since the beginning how you going to do this!?" with a heavy heart I did it. The Iron Maiden fight was another thing, it made me want to win that fight more. It was me Vs. That bitch that held me back from seeing Grim's dream come to fruition. It gave me a chance to give a man a W he needs(I should've known better), and take out that egotistical bitch out of her misery.
    TLDR; The story surrounding the bosses and how it was set up puts them above the others, could argue black has something similar..... but it doesn't really work...

    The thing is the Sweet Tooth fight in 4 can be easily cheesed with prox. mines placed on the teleporter exit. 2 or 3 in the right spot launches him to a killzone everything. Also a nice little glitch happens when you're caught in Crusher's/ Super Slam's special and activate Super Auger's power.

    I’ve always wondered what Charlie Kane actually looks like as the driver of Dark Tooth. Like, does he look the same but with a different outfit? Or does he look all demonic after drinking that potion? He’s a really wasted character. I really wish we got to see his relationship with his son Needles.

    • @darktooth4576
      @darktooth4576 Před rokem +4

      Prior to driving Dark Tooth, it could be a bit awkward since his son is a killer, might not be a good discussion for the dinner table in the Kane household. And with Dark Tooth, they’re both insane, so given the circumstances, he might just become some sort of deranged helicopter parent that would flatline anyone who’d try to take Needles away, though i don’t think Needles himself would care regardless, he’d just try and run away again, something happened that made him run from his dad, and it was never properly explained. Maybe it was abuse? Neglect? Feeling controlled? In Yellow Jacket’s ending, while it’s text, Charlie seems remorseful, and gets depressed when he finds out. The Molotovs seem to hint at him being a heavy drinker to the point his liver failed. Perhaps it’s just coincidence.

    • @insectostrich4407

      @@darktooth4576 No see that’s my point, it could add a level of nuance to Needles if we had a Twisted Metal with a proper story mode that explored his backstory a bit. Maybe have the good guys interact Charlie thinking he’s just another ally, but later they’ll find out who his son is and he’ll tell them what happened that made Needles into a psychopathic clown.
      Maybe in this version he could take the potion because its the only way to beat Needles, becoming Calypso’s slave in the process.

    I adore the Minion fight from Black tho, probably my favorite in the series; the theme alone is incredible.

    You can cheese minion in twisted metal 1 on rooftop. There's a spot on rooftop where you can jump off the roof with a jump pad, and survive. And if you pick specter his missiles go through the level and hits minion...
    so you can literally sit there and shoot those wait for them to come back shoot them etc until he's dead. You can cheese the entirety of rooftop doing this. My friend and I found this by accident screwing around one night trying every part of rooftop to see if there's anywhere you can survive.
    Be careful when you're down there though, if you go too far into the background you eventually will suddenly die.

  • @inkmime

    I can kinda appreciate the simplicity of Minion's theme as a boss fight: He's an opponent who's simply driving an actual military combat vehicle in a derby mostly made up of weaponized cars and trucks. He outguns you in most surface level ways so you just have to play better to make up the difference. It's probably why he suffers most in the more mechanically challenged entries of the series.

Plus, it would just make an environmental hazard (trains passing through and smashing into the racers) into a boss fight. Not sure what the theming would be, or how hard it should be.
