I. INTRODUCTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome to my ever-so-helpful guide to Twisted Metal Black's Secrets And
Cheats. After writing my first couple of FAQs, I just couldn't stop
writing! So I decide to write a guide for a subject that had not yet
been covered in a guide by itself for Twisted Metal Black: The Secrets.
Any one person could throw in all of the "locations" to the secrets of a
game into their walkthrough, but let's face it: Normally, they just
don't go "In-Depth" enough. Every one of us has read a player's guide
and thought; "Now, where is that huge tank that they're talking about?"
Well, the thing that I showcase in all of my guides is the fact that I
don't mention where that certain thing is, I take you by the hand and
lead you there... In a figurative way, of course.
Of course, leading you by the hand in this game is tough, as you are
randomly generated on the screen. I will, however, note something that
would make the area familiar, such as something big, or a certain health
station. I hope you will find my Secrets Walkthrough as satisfactory as
that of a Player's Guide. Having talked to several of the
developers/creators about the game for so long, I can promise you that
every secret in this game, and things not a lot of people know, will be
in this guide.
The layout is very simple. Each Driver will have his own section of the
guide, which includes a nice Bio, and contains the actual in-game
information in game overview fashion (no major spoilers), and include my
own commentary. After this, I will include that specific Driver's
location. Minion's Bio will consist of the famed Decoded Message. If you
don't know it yet, you MUST look. Hidden Multiplayer Stages is exactly
what it says, and I will help you find them. Features & Cheats have odds
and ends. The Cheats are exactly that, and the Features are everything
else that I couldn't fit anywhere else in the guide. I'm thinking about
making an "Movies" section, from Prologue to Ending. Let me have your
feedback on this matter, as I'm batting it around in my head right now.
Thanks... And Enjoy,
-David

If you need me for anything whatsoever (as long as it has to do with the
guide. Sorry, but I don't feel like hearing about how cute your kitten
is if I don't really know you, yanno? Actually, kittens are cute..), You
can contact me via e-mail, or sometimes IM. I check my e-mail several
times a day; so don't hesitate if you have a question!

Please only e-mail me if it's something you do NOT see in the guide. Try
to look for it; If it's not there, feel free to e-mail me.
If you don't know how to e-mail me, just simply bring up a new,
unwritten mail (this varies with different services. It should say
"Write Mail" on the button, though) and write out my e-mail address. For
the subject, type TMB FAQ. In the body of the mail, write whatever you
like, even hate mail! I don't care what you send, but positive feedback
is always nice. But if you're into the hate mail thing, I can dig that,
too.

II. YELLOW JACKET
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FREQUENTLY AGITATED
Name: Charlie Kane & Son
Age: 50/8
Disorder:
Autism (Mechanical Savant), Oppositional Defiant Disorder
Treatment:
Family Therapy, Reality Testing, NO Toys With Moving Parts
Background:
Charlie Kane, the son of "Son" in the duo, as well as the notorious
serial killer, Sweet Tooth, took his eight year old son everyplace in
his nice, yellow taxi cab... They were extremely close, as Charlie Kane
did not want his precious son to turn out like the "clown"... Until, one
day, someone shot Charlie Kane in the head and ran. Obviously troubled
at the sight of watching his father die, Charlie Kane's Son could not
accept the fact that his father was dead... So he rebuilt him. Using a
remote control after hours of surgery, Mr. Kane's Son now controls his
father wherever he goes... Calypso promises to make things "All
Better"...
Unlocked In: Zorko Bros. Scrap & Salvage
How to Unlock:
From the start (any random position, so keep this in mind), look towards
the background in the sky. You should spot an airplane. If not just keep
looking. Once it has been spotted, make sure no enemy vehicles are in
your area, then take out a few Fire Missles and aim at the airplane.
With a good hit, it should come tumbling to the ground. Go towards the
ramp that leads to the second floor of the condemned building, but go
off the left side before you reach the building. Wait for the airplane
to crash, unless it already has, and then enter the "tube area" it
presents. Keep going until you reach a circular area, then shoot the
tiny Control Panel. Congratulations, you have now unlocked Yellow
Jacket. Drive up and out of the trap doors to re-enter the combat zone.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
~~~~~~~~~~
III. AXEL
~~~~~~~~~~
SEVERE DEPRESSION
Name: Axel
Age: 38
Disorder:
Obsessed with revenge fantasies, Violent
Treatment:
Note to staff: Do NOT attempt to treat, Lost Cause.
Background:
Axel had a good life, until one day, while he and his wife were at the
park, he looked down to read his papers for a brief moment... When he
lifted his head, his wife was nowhere to be found. He searched
everywhere, but he could not find her. Someone had kidnapped her... Two
months later, her body was shipped to Axel, piece by piece. Axel even
created a two wheeled contraption to lock himself within it as
punishment for his wife's murder. Needless to say, Axel is quite upset,
and has entered the Twisted Metal competition to learn exactly who it
was that tortured and eventually murdered his wife, and to possibly kill
that thing, as well.
Unlocked In: Freeway
How to Unlock:
From the start, ride along the freeway until you reach the Construction
Area's entrance, which is graced with caution cones. Once you arrive at
your destination, you will notice a huge crane in the background. One
side is lifting a crate which contains a miniture model of Axel, and the
other is holding a huge pipe. Position yourself (and make sure no enemy
vehicles are in the area) going up along the largest hill, which is
towards the entrance of the area. Once tilted, make a stop and aim a
Fire Missle at the cage to the left of the center of the crane. This
will make the crane lower the crate. Once it lands, destroy it with your
machine guns. Congratulations, you've unlocked Axel!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
~~~~~~~~~~~~
IV. WARTHOG
~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOT A PATIENT
Name: Cage
Age: Unknown (Mid 30's?)
Disorder:
No information available.
Treatment:
No information available.
Background:
Cage is an extremely odd individual, who was invited into the Twisted
Metal competition directly by Calypso. You see, Cage has two problems;
The first problem is that he is a serial killer of 12 years that loathes
Sweet Tooth. The second problem is the fact that he cries like an infant
every time he murders someone. His goal is to win the Twisted Metal
competition, and demand Calypso remove the part of him that makes him
sad as he kills... The question is, how can he drive and cry like a baby
at the same time? Isn't that dangerous?
Unlocked In: Suburbs
How to Unlock:
From the start (randomly generated, so don't worry), head towards the
inner city. Once there (not in the "Business District," but where the
houses are), head towards the hill that has a path which leads to the
carnival area. Once you reach the Ferris Wheel, turn left. See the item
pick-up that is resting on the area's "wall"-like hill? Collect it by
driving over to the area and jumping off the hill. You should land on
the roof of a building; if not, try it again. Blow up the vent atop the
building and fall into the fresh hole in the roof. Shoot the Control
Panel to unlock Cage's vehicle, Warthog, which happens to have Thumper's
"Flamethrower" as its Special Weapon!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
V. MANSLAUGHTER
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOT A PATIENT
Name: Black
Age: Unknown (Newborn?)
Disorder:
No information available.
Treatment:
No information available.
Background:
Manslaughter's driver, Black, was created in a Midtown Police Department
lab for two missions and one ultimate purpose: To win the Twisted Metal
competition, and kill Calypso. It kind of reminds you of Twisted Metal
2's Grasshopper, non? Nevertheless, Black is not that intelligent, and
you can tell he wasn't the brightest experiment in the bunch, but can he
get the job done?
Unlocked In: The Prison Passage (aka "The Ship")
How to Unlock:
After surviving the "closed combat" battles with the couple of drivers,
head outside of the "closed combat" area. You will be faced with a few
more vehicles to destroy until the ship docks. Get at the end with the
prisoners that get electricuted (also the end where you will notice the
"Asylum" lettering as you dock). Once docked, exit the ship. Once you've
reached flat ground directly after the ramp, make a 180 degree turn and
go into the area where the bottom of the boat is docked, and to the
left. Make sure the MEGA MACHINE GUNS and GOD MODE cheats are off, in
case you're using them, and make sure no enemy vehicles are in the area.
See the blue crate against the wall closest to the boat? Shoot it with
your machine guns LIGHTLY. This will create a ramp. Go up the ramp and
shoot the side of the boat. This will trigger the electric "Hidden" door
to open. Zoom inside and destroy the Control Panel. Now you've unlocked
Manslaughter!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
~~~~~~~~~~~
VI. MINION
~~~~~~~~~~~
NOT A PATIENT
Name: Minion (Marcus Kane)
Age: Unknown (40's?)
Disorder:
No information available.
Treatment:
No information available. (A twist of reality, maybe?)
Decoded Messages:
"I do not think this is real. I must speak in code or he will discover
me. We are trapped in his head. This is how he sees the world. How Sweet
Tooth sees his life, it is not real. All of us are trapped in his head.
I miss the old colorful world. We will return to our old world one day.
In the real world, my name is Marcus Kane." Thanks to X-Man at
www.tmalliance.com for the Decoded Messages. You rock!
Unlocked In: None
How to Unlock:
Simply beat the game with every character in the game on any difficulty.
And yes, you can cheat, cheater.

VII. HIDDEN MULTIPLAYER STAGES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
***************************************
( FREEWAY )
***************************************
Select your best vehicle and go into Endurance Mode. Select the Snowy
Roads level. Proceed to destroy ten vehicles without dying once. This
will unlock the Freeway stage.
***************************************
( MINI-SUBURBS )
***************************************
Select your best vehicle and go into Endurance Mode. Select the Drive-In
level. Proceed to destroy ten vehicles without dying once. This will
unlock the Mini-Suburbs level.
***************************************
( PRISON SHIP )
***************************************
Select your best vehicle and go into Endurance Mode. Select the Zorko
Bros. Junkyard level. Proceed to destroy fifteen vehicles without dying
once. This will unlock the Prison Ship stage.
***************************************
( WARHAWK )
***************************************
Found In: Zorko Bros. Scrap & Salvage
Location:
On the "main" battlefield, you will notice a flying, green colored "Big
Boy"-looking object. Blow it up with a Fire Missles or two, which
creates a ramp. Notice the metal crushing device in the background? Once
it comes down, Turbo off the ramp and came to a dead halt atop the
device. Once it goes up, you will notice the device's managing system,
which looks like a shack. Facing the "shack," look to the right to see a
floating object. Zoom off of the device to collect the LEVEL
"Warhawk"... Keep in mind this is the level, NOT the last boss.
***************************************
( PRISON PASSAGE )
***************************************
Found In: The Suburbs
Location:
With a faster car (such as Mr. Grimm, Spectre, etc.), go to the area
that you unlocked Warthog in (read Warthog's section for more). After
making the jump from the hill to the building's rooftop, stay on the
roof. Do NOT go into the hole from which you'd find Warthog. Instead,
drive towards the left and off the building to the next building's
rooftop. You may need to jump (L1 + R1) to reach it. Go to the very end
of the row of buildings, then go to the flat-topped roof opposite of the
one you're on now. Turbo jump and quickly hit your breaks to come to a
rough stop. From here, look at the building next to you, and blow the
Vent up with a fire missle. This will reveal a Hidden Stage Icon.
Collect it by Turbo jumping over and grab it.
***************************************
( ELEVATORS )
***************************************
Found In: Highway Loop
Location:
Follow the path given until you reach the folding bridge that is halfway
up in the air. Look on the side opposite of the highway tunnel to notice
three round boulders in the background. Get out your Gas Can weapon and
launch it, then time it perfectly to come down on the middle/most
foreground boulder of the three. Get out of its way, as it comes
tumbling onto the battlefield. Follow it across the bridge, and watch it
knock a hole out of the wall in the tunnel. Go inside, and to your right
will be the hidden stage, "Elevators"... This stage is awesome.
***************************************
( STADIUM )
***************************************
Found In: Downtown
Location:
Whilst in the Downtown area of... well, Downtown, you will notice a
building sitting at the entrance, near the water area in the middle.
Cross the bridge to notice this building, as it is connected by two
bridges in mid-air. Go in between them, and shoot out the middle of the
left building. Enter the newly found hole and go to the halfway point,
then notice, to the left, the elevator. Ride it up and go to the left,
then cross the bridge. Once over the bridge, go left and past the second
elevator. Now slowly, and softly, fall off of the ledge past the second
elevator. If you're lucky, you'll land on the catwalk. Look around to
find a rotating coffee cup. Blow it up to reveal a Hidden Stage Icon.
Drive off and jump (L1 + R1) to reach Minion's Stadium.
***************************************
( POWER PLANT )
***************************************
Found In: Snowy Roads
Location:
Once you arrive on the very closed-in-combat level of Snowy Roads, you
will notice that it has two areas: The first is the skiing area, which
you will ignore if you wish to reach the Power Plant Hidden Stage Icon.
The second is the Gas Station and Resort. Go to this area, and look to
your left to find one of the barrier's missing. Go over to it and slide
down softly to reach a Health pick-up, and a Rico pick-up. Facing
against the resort, look to your right to see a steep hill, in which at
the top is the Hidden Stage Icon. Turbo up, and slam on the brakes
towards the top to reach it. You may die while doing this, but it's
worth it, as the Power Plant kind of feels like Twisted Metal 2's "Los
Angeles" stage, without the "Hollywood" sign.
***************************************
( SEWERS )
***************************************
Found In: Abandoned Skyscrapers
Location:
The Abandoned Skyscrapers stage can be quite the life-stealer,
ESPECIALLY when trying to get the Hidden Stage Icon for the cat-and-
mouse Sewers stage. Go down to the platform that is connected to a
bridge, in which has a wrecking ball that can slap you off of the
rooftops. Cross this bridge to reach the area which contains the Health
Station. Notice the Franklin Sign to your right? Knock it down to create
a bridge for reference. Cross the Franklin Bridge, and go to the right,
where you will find an awkward ledge. Get on that flat-ground ledge, and
face the Franklin Bridge. Drive off at moderate speed (yes, killing
yourself), and with some luck, you will collect the Hidden Stage Icon
for the Sewers. If not, keep trying this method until you do. It's also
very wise to save.
***************************************
( SKYSCRAPERS )
***************************************
Found In: Warhawk's Rooftop
Location:
From where you start off, you will have to ignore the boss and come to
the realization that you must kill yourself in order to get the Hidden
Stage Icon for the Skyscrapers. I bet you're tired of dying, eh? Go to
the edge that the tankers fall off from and onto the battlefield, and
look off that area. If you drive carefully at moderate speed, you can
collect the infamous Hidden Stage Icon, and unlock the very cool
"Skyscrapers" stage. Good luck!

VIII. FEATURES & CHEATS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
***************************************
( CHEATS )
***************************************
This section is dedicated to those who love to cheat for fun. Don't take
it too seriously, as whipping through the game with One Hit Kills on
gets kinda boring. ^_^

Not a secret to most, but an overlooked feature of the game. Instead of

Select and pressing Right on the D-Pad. I prefer the list, as it's
easier to navigate.
~!~FRYING INMATES~!~
On the Prison Ship stage, note that after you get out of the small "two
enemy" area, and towards the ship's exit, that there are three inmates
about to get fried. Shoot off the block in front of them to watch them
cook. Kinda twisted, eh?

IX. FAQ
~~~~~~~~~~
Q. When was this game released?
~
A. July of 2001.
Q. You've talked to the developers of this game??? How??
~
A. I used to be a Senior Editor of a gaming website, and interviewed
Steve Ceragioli at E3 2001. Nice guy. I can send a link to the interview
by request. I also spoke with Steve and Dave (Jaffe) in a chat over at
www.tmalliance.com several times.
Q. That intro music sounds familiar, doesn't it?
~
A. Yes, in fact, it is pretty much the same music from the introduction
credits in the movie "Seven."
Q. So which movies inspired this game, anyway?
~
A. Seven, Jacob's Ladder, Silence Of The Lambs, and The Many Adventures
of Winnie The Pooh. Okay, I'm joking about that last one, however,
Winnie the Pooh is awesome. Take note that Jacob's Ladder also inspired
the Silent Hill series.
Q. Why is the only hidden character to have an Introduction movie Yellow
Jacket?
~
A. A couple of reasons, actually... Yellow Jacket's ending plays a major
part of Twisted Metal Black, so they figured it might be wiser to add
more of a background story to it. The other reason, I believe, was time.
They simply didn't have enough time to add movies for all of the hidden
characters, but of course, endings are a must! The "Load Screen" stories
are especially good opposed to the starting drivers', though.
Q. I can't get Manslaughter! Every time I shoot that box, the whole
thing blows up!
~
A. Make sure you aren't using the Mega Guns cheat. If you are, turn it
off. Now, carefully (not full throttle) shoot the blue crate with your
REGULAR machine guns until half of it blows up. Like I mentioned in the
Hidden Vehicles section, make sure no cars are by you, as they cause
more damage than it seems.
Q. Out of curiousity, who do you use?
~
A. For my straight "ass-whuppin'" battles, I use Outlaw. Whenever I feel
spunky, though, I'll bust out Brimstone. I suck with him, though. ;-)
Q. Are the rumors true of a Twisted Metal Black movie?
~
A. Nope, not to my knowledge.
Q. What about a sequel?
~
A. Incog Inc has been extremely hush-hush on this matter. If they are
making a sequel, I'd suspect that they are not currently working on it
as of right now.
Q. How did you decode that whole Minion message???
~
A. I didn't. Simply put, I found the information about two weeks after
the game's release over at www.tmalliance.com. Great site for all things
Twisted Metal.
Q. I own an import copy of the game, and I'm not seeing any movies for
the characters! Is my copy a piece of crap?
~
A. Sadly, no, your copy is NOT a piece of crap. The foreign versions of
Twisted Metal Black had all of the movies removed, I guess due to the
disturbing sequences.

X. CREDITS
~~~~~~~~~~~~
All the same in my FAQs, the guys to get thanked first are the wonderful
people who post my work. Jeff Veasey (CJayC) at GameFAQs.com, and
Stephen Ng at IGN.com. Jeff Veasey runs arguably the best site on the
internet, which takes time away from everything else he does, and I
cannot put into words how much I, as a gamer and person, appreciate his
success in this field. And what's not to say about IGN.com? Stephen's
program is running strong, and building a fine reputation in this field.
Good job.
Big amounts of thanks to the guys over at Incog Inc for saving this
great series from 989, especially Dave Jaffe, who has created a world
that is so captivating and real that it has a cult following over at
TMAlliance.com, and Steve Ceragioli, who fit me into his busy schedule
at E3 2001 for an interview. What a great, friendly guy. He made the
company, regardless if they are the "good guys" or the "evil do-ers,"
look top notch. Very professional. Thanks Steve.
Thanks to Todd Morden and Andrew "The Jew" Wechsler. You two guys were
awesome with the amount of coverage I provided for this game before it's
launch, and you guys are two of the best friends I've ever had on a
professional basis. Thanks Todd. Thanks Jew. You guys rule, and good
luck with your future expeditions.
To TMAlliance.com. They set up a good web-site, and have a passion for
Twisted Metal that is unmatched, and some people may say unhealthy. Oh
well, what can you do, right? Big thanks to X-Man over there. When I
first came there, a few members of their staff had this "I hate the
newbie rush" thing going on, however, X-Man had seen through that, and
treated me with respect, and knew I was a true fan. This guy, for a
staff member at a moderately big site, is one of the most down-to-earth
guys you will meet, and he knows what he's talking about. Just so you
know, X-Man, I kissed your ass in the credits way before you submitted
the Decoded Messages to me. Thanks. Thanks also goes to SoC (good seeing
you at E3!), Monkey King, NightShade, AngelEd (hehe, so witty), and last
but not least, Morty. Morty is like the big sister I never had. ;-D And
yes, I'm kidding. Much love to all of those that I'm forgetting, too.
You guys are great folk.
Thanks again to my girlfriend, Valerie Meerschaert. She cleaned the
window near my computer yesterday, and I can't see the monitor for the
sunshine closing in on it. It looks very nice, though, as it hadn't been
cleaned in years (literally). Thanks Hun, you own.
Traditionally, thanks goes to Collective Soul, who are big fans of TM1
and TM2, and make great rock music.
