Even after playing the game for a few hours, my attack strategy remained the same: just smash the attack buttons as often as possible while awkwardly repositioning the camera and hope for the best. They all move using that same awkward control stick/shoulder button combo, and they all have a light attack, heavy attack, and shooting attack that can only be awkwardly combined in so many ways.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t make much of a difference which classic kaiju you command they all have the same frustratingly limited controls. Or you can participate in online multiplayer fights with up to three monsters of your choice. You can choose to be a monster like Mothra defending a city from Godzilla’s attack. You can strip away the story entirely for God Of Destruction Mode, allowing you to mow down the same boring cities as any other monster in the game. Open them and the illusion is shattered.Īside from the main story mode, there are a handful of other side games to beef up the experience. Close your eyes and it sounds like the Godzilla game of your dreams. That’s a real shame, especially since every conceivable classic sound effect has been included. It was a multiplayer monster fighting game where you could level cities by throwing each other through buildings. Want a good Godzilla-style game Try War of the Monsters, which is a PS2 port available on PS4. I’m just gonna say the best Godzilla game was an unlicensed ps2 game called War of the Monsters. I freaking love Godzilla, but trust me, the novelty wears off after about two minutes of gameplay. note Tamashii Nations, the makers of the S.H. I played this at my friends house, and its absolute trash. However, production of physical copies of the Playstation 3 version has ceased, and only the PS4 version is available as of February 2015.

Sure, you’ll see all those monsters in HD, but the generic and repetitive cityscapes and inexplicably clean urban explosions don’t just feel like a delayed PS3 game at times the blocky graphics look like something from the PS2 era. Godzilla is a 2014 video game developed by Natsume and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, and the first Godzilla game since Godzilla. The designers made fantastic use of their acquired brand they simply failed to create a compelling game to contain it. In a way, that’s what makes it so frustrating so much of it feels right and delivers shivers of nostalgia that I constantly tried to convince myself that I was enjoying the experience more than I actually was. Toss in pretty well every conceivable classic Godzilla monster from Mothra and Gamera to Mechagodzilla and you’ve got a game littered with fan service that was clearly made by people who love the property. In fact, the silly tale, ludicrous dialogue, and wooden voice acting only adds to the nostalgia value for Godzilla fans. The story is pretty rough, but then again the Godzilla series was never exactly renowned for it’s complex narratives.
