Yesterday, we had reported that David Jaffe’s next game with company Eat Sleep Play, may in fact not be Twisted Metal. Instead, Jaffe made it seem as though the title could be a new IP. Considering how vocal of a fellow he is, it comes as no surprise his personal website has been update to clarify these rumors.

In the “What’s on Jaffe’s Brain” section of his website, Jaffe updated the area to address the Twisted Metal rumors.

Just to be clear, I’ve never said we were or were NOT making a new Twisted Metal. Ever. But just to be 100% clear, if we were to make a new Twisted, I would consider it a reboot. The last console Twisted was 10 years ago. If we were to make a new one, we’d be starting with the assumption that no one knows what Twisted Metal is anymore and we’d have to re-earn each and every fan the series ever had. So in that sense, IF we were to ever make a new one, we’d consider it a brand new series/game/franchise.

Why can't you just stick to what made it great?!

Sounds very interesting. Whatever their first game is it should be great, how can it be anything but with David Jaffe working on it?

Re-boot! I get a feeling when the next Twisted Metal comes out, its gonna be freakin' awesome. I can tell they'll put a lot of time and effort into it.

Sounds like a smart approach to take.

I think he mentioned on one of his youtube videos quite a while back that the game they were working on was a new IP.

Although it seems he considers the reinvention of the series as being akin to creating something entirely new.

So it might be twisted metal, or it might not be. I think there might be a lot of dissapointed gamers if it turns out not to be though.

lol twisted metal confirmed.

Twisted Plastic! xD
