Ok this a long story here. C&G magazine contacted me to do some cover work for their magazine for the new Twisted Metal game, because Sony at the time didn't have the time to provide any assets. So I had to base all the artwork from the previous version of Twisted Metal. It was cool I was really happy with the piece, and C&G was cool with it. And I herd that Jaffe gave it a approval as well.
But somewhere along the lines Sony suddenly was able to come up the resources and decide to do everything internal.
Which was I've seen before with publishers. But what can you do.

I'm saddened that it wasn't used, but I was surprised they used a simular layout as the one I did. But I have in the end I have a nice piece and cool fanart.

And now able to post it (and I guess you can compare it to the other cover down the road)

The original Twisted Metal, World Tour, Black, and the 2012 reboot had a dark atmosphere, especially Black, which was well deserving of its title. and Needles Kane, the Sweet Tooth Killer is still my favorite serial killer in the series. It's a wonder to me why they gave the games before and after the mentioned games a less dark atmosphere and a more comical tone; even Small Brawl was still given a T rating.

I think they want wider sales. If your demo graphic is for a older audience, you may not get as much as to the younger crowd.
Kind of like box buster movies these days, any tries to get a PG-13 minimum so it sells well. (I miss block busters that had a R rating) The original Die hard was fun, cursing and swearing. The new ones.. piss poor excuse of the original

I know, but like I said, Small Brawl was T for Teen, but to me, it looked like it was meant for a younger audience. Giving something meant for kids a T rating seems kind of pointless, seeing the rest of the series being rated the same, with the exception being Black and the newest game in the series.

awww sorry to hear. I think they have emulators to play it now.
But I'm sure looking at the graphics It's really rough to look at on a HD tv.

Reminds me of the good ol' days of Twisted Metal 2, except with the TM: Black ice cream truck.
