If I am remembering correctly, the main series is actually TM1, 2, Black, and PS3. Black basically retconned parts 3 & 4 and was the actual sequel to Twisted Metal 2. So I'm guessing that's why they're releasing it in this manner.

Would've been cool to see the Twisted Metal Head On released in its PS2 incarnation for this sale (since this sale is aimed at PS3 users with Head On only having a digital PSP release).

You can probably find Twisted Metal for PS3 at a cheaper price physically, but this is still a good deal, especially if you want to be strictly digital.

While I agree that Twisted Metal 3 and 4 weren't that great, they most likely didn't include them because a re-release would require them to re-license the music tracks.

If you play the Black Rock Stadium level in the new Twisted Metal, one of the quips from the announcer is, "This match makes about as much sense as Twisted Metal III!"

989 Studios took over the reigns from SingleTrac with the third and fourth titles, and David Jaffe had no involvement in those two.

Which is probably the main reason why they aren't included, but honestly I'd like to think its because they are mediocre games.

No multiplayer already? Damn. Maybe I shouldn't open mine then.
