* SelfPlagiarism: Remove the tourism and cash mechanics from the game, and you'll see that this game is ultimately no different than [=SingleTrac=]'s earlier ''Twisted Metal 2'', down to having the same physics and feel as that game, only more refined. Having it released so close to ''Twisted Metal III'' didn't help maters either.

* AWinnerIsYou: Calling them "endings" is way too generous, as all the ending cinematics play out exactly the same, with Big Daddy being blasted to the moon, Mad Jack awarding you a trophy while cracking a one-liner related to the player character, giving them a trophy that zooms in on a revealing code that you can then input in the options screen for bonuses. Rinse and repeat for all the standard characters.

Added DiffLines:

* TheMole: The unlockable characters, both bosses and enemies, are this. Fridge Brilliance because, of course they would secretly be Automercenaries, they're playable characters! Lampshaded by the ending cinematic for them, calling them "ringers."

* ArrowCam: The Prowler missiles are manually guided by the player. It's extremely difficult to maneuver one into an enemy though, so tapping the fire button twice will cause it to auto-lock on, at the cost of half the damage points.
