Game recognizes game

I was really impressed, too. I've barely found anyone who's seen it, but I think that's a result of it being on Peacock lol.

spoilerThe part where sweet tooth liberates the people from the fascist DMV was so fuckin funny

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sweet Tooth was great lol. I was wondering how they were going to depict him because the evil clown trope is so played out since Twisted Metal first appeared, with so many other great standouts in the field to be compared to (different versions of the Joker, the guy from The Terrifier, It, etc.).

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah they struck a good balance with him and somehow ended up with theatre kid juggalo revolutionary.

Twisted Metal was so fucking stupid and I loved it the entire time

[–] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

what about the vehicular jonkler?

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

Sweet Tooth is based af. Misunderstood theatre kid that hates cops. He just like me.

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's confirmed it'll be s2

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Nice it definitely seems like they're doing world building and setup for the real tournament. Honestly I am pretty impressed how good it is.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

I'm trying. none of my usual streaming sites are working for it. doggirl-gloom

I had to make space and torrent it. I got 7 eps in last night and it's amazing. It's like an homage to Uwe Boll by someone good at film.
