David Jaffe reveals some new info about the upcoming Twisted Metal game while also debunking a bunch of recent rumors floating as well.
While pictures of the game's kiosks in stores make it seem like it will support the PS Move and 3D capabilities, neither will actually be included in the game. There was some initial plans for 3D support but they didn't have enough time nor a large enough development team to actually work on the idea.
In terms of costs, it will take about double the sales of what Twisted Metal Black gained just to break even or about 1-2 million sales in order for future games in the series to get the "green light" status.
DLC will only be considered if the game sells well enough to create an actual demand for additional content due to the company having other projects to work on.
The game will also be the last game lead by David Jaffe as he has gotten tired of making combat games. It doesn't mean the series will go on hiatus though since another producer can take over if future games are approved.
Finally, no PS Vita version is being planned nor will the co-op include online play since its just local co-op for the story.
