90There's nothing truly groundbreaking (apart from Godzilla's feet) and there's plenty of room for improvement, but also very little to complain about and the astonishing level of destruction will most likely have you grinning like an imbecile throughout.
-
The fighting manages to feel nimble while still providing a sense of awesome scale, which had to be an extremely hard balance to strike. [Nov 2004, p.60]
-
75A ton of fun...There's a lot of appeal to the city-stomping combat here. [Jan 2005, p.73]
-
72It is a marked improvement to the formula, but gamers turned off by the slow pace or average execution are encouraged to look elsewhere.
-
70If it had been afforded a little more finesse (especially regarding the Challenges) and a little more authentic Godzilla flavor, it'd be even sweeter.
-
If you take it at face value and realise that it is a simple game that provides an element of fun especially in 2-player mode you wont be disappointed.
-
65There's barely anything that's new and even the online addition barely makes this aging game look any better.
-
65For those concerned with the legitimacy of the game, Godzilla: StE has the full backing of Toho behind it. This means that all of your beloved monster calls are authentic and have been simulated to the best of Pipeworks' ability.
-
60Hardcore Godzilla fans will appreciate seeing the decent renderings of some of their favorite monsters here, but they're unlikely to be terribly impressed by the action itself.
-
A monstrous letdown. [Dec 2004, p.165]
-
60Outside of diehard Godzilla fans, no one really needs to bother with Save the Earth in the first place.
-
60This sequel boasts larger battle arenas, including a surprisingly convincing New York City.
-
60Houses shake and crumble but certainly not in a convincing manor. The area is scattered with objects that can be picked up but when you take a look around, the buildings and other objects you really want to throw, simply refuse to budge.
-
55Don't bother renting or buying this game if you're only mildly interested in the Godzilla concept, felt the previous game sucked, or consider yourself a fighting game snob. The best thing about Godzilla: Save The Earth is that Godzilla is in it.
-
Gamers weaned on faster smackdowns and who aren't turned on by the idea of a showdown between Megalon and Destoroyah should proceed with caution. [Holiday 2004, p.106]
-
A sloppy fighting game that may be good for a few laughs and nothing more.
-
The animation should be motion-captured goodness in order to show the bloke-in-suit feel of the Toho flicks. It could be quite amusing. It's not amusing. It's tragic.
-
40A decent party game with a great cast of cheesy giant monsters, but it's just not scaly or radioactive enough to command much respect.
-
30I don't think I've ever been more bored when playing a game. Punch, kick, throw into wall, throw into wall, punch, throw into wall, "Godzilla 2000 wins!", next round...ad infinitum.
