A new poll on David Jaffe’s Web site seems to suggest one might be on the way

A new poll posted on David Jaffe’s website (davidjaffe.biz) is asking gamers what they’d like to see in an upcoming installment to the Twisted Metal franchise. Jaffe, director of the series as well as the first installment of the God of War franchise, is known for his candor about the video-game industry, so it seems possible that he could be at the very least considering revisiting the beloved vehicle-combat franchise.

The first entry to the Twisted Metal franchise was released as a launch title for the original Sony PlayStation, and was instantly well received as a stand-out title for the new system. Whereas there have been several iterations in the franchise including a remake of the original that was released on the PSP and PS2 as Twisted Metal: Head-On in 2005 and Twisted Metal: Head-On Extra Twisted Edition in 2008, respectively, the last official game released in the series was Twisted Metal: Black in 2001. An online version of the game was released in 2002.

While there have been recent rumblings that Jaffe’s development company, Eat Sleep Play, has been working on a new game in the franchise, SCEA has not confirmed the rumors.

This Rumor has been a rumor for at least a year and a half

That pretty much seals the deal...

Wtf.... hasn't this rumor been known since like 2007?

wait, hasn't it been a year and a half since Twisted Metal PS3 was revealed?

I expect an official annoucement for a release date for late 2010, early 2011.

fake i guess....has been too long out in the open world

It's not a rumor. It just hasn't been officially announced.

I'd definately get it if it were as good as say... Twisted Metal: Black.. Now that I think about it, I should look for a copy of that game too. Bringing back twisted metal from a 10 year break would be great..

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a new IP from Mr. Jaffe.

BTW real forgot to vote.
