This time, you can take your rage online in four-player melees. In Save the Earth, the fate of Tokyo, San Francisco, New York, and other locations is in your hands. Expand

  1. With a solid single-player experience and a multiplayer game that is as much fun locally as it is online, Godzilla is just a fantastic game. I've played this longer than any other fighting game in my collection and I still enjoy going back for the occasional monster mash, even after I have long since unlocked everything.
  2. 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]
  3. It is a marked improvement to the formula, but gamers turned off by the slow pace or average execution are encouraged to look elsewhere.
  4. The game's balance is all wrong. The controls are overly simplistic and you seem to take more damage from the little helicopters that flit around than you do the other monsters.

    The presentation and game concept are actually quite solid. But the gameplay is very button mashy. There's hardly any depth at all.
