The first run of the game that is, so you might want to actually deal with the idiots at your local Gamestop and reserve a copy.

Via the PlayStation blog comes a very special message from Twisted Metal‘s creator, David Jaffe…

Well, this is certainly good news for both new and old fans of the franchise. Hearing that Black was the start of something, that will finally be realized is sure to be music to ears of Twisted Metal fans, who have been dying for a new, “proper” installment, who felt the franchise had been long abandoned (there’s been a PSP release since the last PS2 one, but most folks have missed out since not everyone has a PSP).

As for the new game, coming out this upcoming Valentine’s Day, it’s been featured a few times already, but here’s a more recent taste…

And for good measure, some straightforward gameplay footage, which goes a long way to demonstrate how fast and furious things can really get…

As also noted once before, I believe, I’ve got the chance to give the game a spin and it’s lots of fun! Especially the Sweet Tooth mecha.
