'Twisted Metal' (PS3) Gets Euro Date

by Rainier on Jan. 10, 2012 @ 5:18 a.m. PST

With four factions battling for control, players step into the combat boots of a twisted disciple in a high octane, highly destructible world. Players fight for the prize of one wish fulfilled by the stylishly evil Calypso, the mastermind behind the Twisted Metal tournament.

High atop his penthouse office, a mysterious ringleader named Calypso lords over the contest of vehicle combat known as Twisted Metal. He returns again to host the ultimate contest of skill and destruction. Contestants have been chosen to compete and, should they emerge victorious, win whatever prize their heart desires.

While North American Twisted Metal fans will be able to go berserk on Valentine's Day, European gamers are going to have to wait a few extra days.
