Wish it was one of the old Showa or the new Legendary Godzillas. I find Shin Godzilla repulsive aesthetically (he's v. cool don't get me wrong, and I like the movie a lot) and yes I know I'm alone in that, lots of people love the Shinster

Yeah, I’m surprised they’re using the Shin Godzilla. I would have thought they would pick a cuter or more attractive G to general audiences instead of a gross mutant.

I dunno, gross mutants have their distinct charm, and it's not like Godzilla is typically cute and cuddly. (well, relatively)

I still wanna see the hinted Monsterverse version of Hedorah. I'm picturing some ancient giant slug or slime mold that evolved to feed on volcanic ash or something.

The classic media dvds from like 2007 had the same line. So it’s a problem with the source.

I'm seeing it as well. It seems strange that it is on all three of these movies instead of just one of them.

So, here's something I've been wondering for some time: have their ever been any recent games that succesfully captured the feeling of a kaiju film? I know about games like Rampage and a bunch of Godzilla fighting games on ps2, but it seems like a concept that would work really well on modern hardware. Or, you know, is actually released in the west. Does any of you have any suggestions?

Or, failing that, has there ever been a cool Godzilla mod outside of Minecraft, Skyrim or GTA?

There was that Godzilla game on PS4 a few years ago that looks cool but the gameplay gets extremely repetitive and boring. The thing is that they haven’t seemed to figure out how to translate “big slow lumbering monster” into fun gameplay mechanics so far

Edit: I just remembered the ps2 game “RAD: Robotic Alchemic Drive” and I am fairly certain that’s the ultimate kaiju video game experience and nothing else has come close

Movie Monster Game is also pretty good, if repetitive.

I always found it weird that almost no kaiju-game has managed to get the sense of scale or speed right. They either feel like they're hopped up on amphetamines and filled with helium, or they are lumbering giants that bring the game speed down to sleep inducing levels. Playing with the scale of the maps and using an isometric perspective should be able to fix that, but I don't think it has ever really been done. Then again, giant mechs suffer from the same problems but they translate to games quite well. So I'm not really sure what's up here.

Looking around at mods for other games, there's surprisingly little available. The best I've been able to find is this mod for Saints Row IV, a game which also has a pretty cool Mechagodzilla costume. And MUGEN-projects, because it's MUGEN.

What's sad is that's probably the best they could have done at the time.

Ape suits have never, ever looked great. Even the one in 76 isn't...ideal.

Suits that use fur walk a very fine line at the best of times. Werewolves can get away with it a lot of the time because they're not simians. The closer to humanoid you get, the worse it's going to look.

Super Godzilla is so bad, even if there is some great spritework

I still say the end is cool for when it goes full DBZ.

Never understood why nobody tried Dynasty Warriors: Godzilla. It worked ok for Gundam. All you have to do is come up with a slightly smaller generic Kaiju for the human and alien sides.

I feel like to really capture the feel of a kaiju film, strategic management would be just as important as capturing the feel of mass urban destruction.

I would actually like to see a, say, 4v1 asymmetrical game where one person is the kaiju and the other 4 play feuding departments of the response that can only exchange information in extremely inefficient ways.

Would end up with Godzillas being like Gokus in a Dragon Ball fighting game.

Even Destroy All Monsters Melee has two Godzillas.

There's been several, hasn't there?

Like, there's a Dreamcast one that's apparently kind of bad, there's the PS2/Xbox/GC ones, and there's been at least one since on PS3 or PS4

Aren't there three versions of Godzilla in the PS4 one? Although maybe only two of them are playable.
