Godzilla Unleashed

Or Godzilla Xtreme. They should have just gone with Godziila and called it a day. It's no worse than Super XYZ, XYZ 64, or XYZ DS.

Wii! Godzilla would be the way to go.

Let's face it. The market for Godzilla on Wii doesn't have the largest vocabulary on the planet. It's not like Saurian Pugilists Extricated was an option.

Clearly the game would have been given a more intelligent name if it were on another console.....

Giant monster games have sucked since King of the Monsters 2. This will also suck.

And yet, I keep holding out for a good one. I love Godzilla movies.

I don't see how anyone who likes Goji could say that the GameCube games sucked. They weren't GotY material or anything, but they were perfectly solid party-style fighters where you got to wreck cities with kaiju. What more are you hoping for out of a Godzilla game, exactly?

[YellerDog]

King of the Monsters, apparently.

[SpoDaddy]

I never really got into the King of the Monsters games, they felt like generic wrestling games.

[YellerDog]

They kind of are, yeah. I figure the key here would be making a new Giant Monster game using a modern wrestling game engine-- just swap out the naked dudes for giant monsters, give some stuff to stomp around on, buildings to throw, breath attacks, and call it a day. Granted, I didn't spend much time with the 'Cube Godzilla games.

Example, War of the Monsters had completely the wrong idea, IMO. Twisted Metal engine? Lock on projectile shit? Combo nonesense? Everything looking extremely tiny? No.

[SpoDaddy]

The Cube games were like Power Stone with giant monsters, very fun.

Looks like the developers have come up with some original kaiju designs, and they're having a poll on IGN to determine which one they use.

I voted for Firelion. The others don't fit the Godzilla universe IMO
