How are we feeling Godzilla bros?
No Gamera, no buy.
>>748262557Excited and happy. Though still confused about how they're remastering DAMM but also adding Showa Mechagodzilla.
>>748262557I'll debating if I should get it in Steam or Switch 2. I'm waiting to see if it'll have Denovo on Steam or Gamecube controller support on switch 2>>748262797It's replacing MechaGodzilla 2 from the origional. As MG2 in DAMM already had a moveset and story-role of MG1.
>>748262980>It's replacing MechaGodzilla 2 from the origional. As MG2 in DAMM already had a moveset and story-role of MG1.Ooooohhhhh, that's interesting. They retconned that in either StE or Unleashed, but if they're going to do the whole trilogy that's a very cool detail they changed for DAMM.
>>748263127>but if they're going to do the whole trilogy that's a very cool detail they changed for DAMM.Allegedly in some interview, the director stated he'd be interested in the idea. Though for Unleashed it might be heavily altered compared the previous two games on account of Unleashed being a rushed waggle game.
>>748263294Fine with me, the Switch 2 can do the waggle but a conventional control setup option would be great, and they can take their time to finish it and add all the things they wanted to originally, plus put Battra in for a complete roster.
>>748262557It looks a little cheap but as long as it plays the same and has online that's fine
>>748262557why not remaster Save the Earth so I can play as jet jaguar
>>748262557feelin pretty good, hope it sells well enough that the whole trilogy gets remastered
>>748264013It does have online.>>748264217I think they're going to do the entire trilogy if this does well.
>>748264563ok i will buy
unreal slop that doesnt even try to look like the very nice cartoony and stylish look of the OG game. But it is what it is. I will consume. I can't say they dont care since they cared enough to replace hesei MG with actual alien showa MG.
>>748262557Looks soulless
>>748262557I'm just happy that the real Mechagodzilla 2 is going to be in this game. It always drove me up the wall that Heisei Mechagodzilla was called Mechagodzilla 2 in DAMM. That was just flat out the wrong name.
>>748266695MOGUERA was labeled MOGUERA 2 in Save the Earth. Wonder if it gets replaced with the "The Mysterians" Mogera if they remake StE.
>>748266789That would be rad as hell. I always liked the original MOGUERA.
Well /v/?
>>748267070I'm with my nigga Heisei.
>>748266905He's FAT!
>>748267070I like the 2000s design
Is Bimmy right? Are these the best introduction to Godzilla?
>>748269487I assume it's old, because Minus 1 and Shin are both fantastic entry points.I would also include GMK, and it's weird to include a direct sequel, even with the previous film on the list, but overall it's a good list. Except 91 Ghidorah. Bad choice, its goofy but not in an endearing way. Astro Monster is better, both as a film and entry point.Biollante is one of the best, but too entrenched in lore to be a first film.
>>748262692That nigga is an entirely different franchise
>>748269829It says all monsters.
>>748267070Why
>>748269852Gamera is a friend, not a monster
>>748269862
>>748269487No. The Showa picks make no sense, the Heisei pick should be Biollante if we're still pretending 84 is bad (the JP original is good), and this list is old enough that it misses some notable newer movies, Shin and Minus One.I would say>Godzilla 54The original, mandatory for that reason alone, but also because some of the best later movies are reimaginings of it.>Ghidorah, the Three-Headed MonsterThe first movie with Godzilla as a hero. He's a villain in the first film, he fights Anguirus then attacks humans in the second, and King Kong and Mothra are the respective heroes of the third and fourth films.>Vs. BiollanteThe second Heisei film and the first to feature Godzilla fighting an enemy monster.>Shin GodzillaWhat if le Godzilla was a le Evangelion Angel>Minus OneQuasi-prequel to 54 and among the best production values of Japanese Godzilla films.
>>748269805It predates Minus 1 but he hated Shin Godzilla, I don't know why it was excellent and so was Shin Ultraman.
>>748267070Combine the two.
>>748269991Agreed on both counts, and while Shin Kamen Rider was definitely the weakest of the 3, it was still decent.
>>748267070If only they used Heisei Godzilla's roars from 1984 to 1991.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XoxJ8ZbL0s
With his return and increasing appearances in media, I really want him to be in one of these fighting games.
>>748269487Honestly I would just reccomend the Millenium movies. My first movie was GMK so I can't help but reccomend that
>>748266695>That was just flat out the wrong name.There are official sources that list the Heisei film as "Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II.">https://www.tohokingdom.com/movies/godzilla_vs_mechagodzilla_2.htm>"Toho submitted the film to the US copyright office on February 20th, 1996 with the registration number of PA0000796966. The movie was submitted under its new preferred English title, Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II"
>>748271083That's the shitty American name of the film. The original Japanese title was simply "Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla".
>>748271164It's an official source from Toho themselves, saying Mechagodzilla II "was just flat out the wrong name" is a disingenuous statement since there's absolutely precedent to assume "Mechagodzilla II" refers to the to the Heisei iteration of Mechagodzilla in that film.
>>748271384Heisei Mechagodzilla is NOT Mechagodzilla 2. Mechagodzilla 2 was the mech featured in the 1975 film, "Mechagodzilla's Counterattack".
>>748271589Unfortunately the term applies to both of them. When using the term "Mechagodzilla II" it's important to understand that you need to contextualize your usage of the term since a blanket spoken statement like, "Mechagodzilla II is my favorite mech from the Godzilla series" could refer to either iteration of the character equally, and could become a root of miscommunication. However, the statement itself is NOT incorrect regardless of which iteration you are intending to refer to, as both have true instances of referral under that name.
>>748271914As far as I'm concerned, the original Japanese names are the only ones that matter. I'm not going to humor some American writer's cut (or should I say vandalization) of the movies.
>>748271164>>748272121They changed it so people wouldn't confuse it with the Showa movie. Problem is the general public isn't too aware of Mechagodzilla's Counterattack/Terror of Mechagodzilla. At least they did it better with Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla.
>>748272121>As far as I'm concerned, the original Japanese names are the only ones that matterAs I pointed out in >>748271384 the copyright that refers to the film as "Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II" was filed by TOHO THEMSELVES. The most Japanese company that has ever existed. It does not get more "original Japanese source" than that. The Heisei Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla film from 1993 wasn't even available in the United States until 1998. It wasn't a title made up by some dumb dub writer who doesn't even speak Japanese, it was made by TOHO THEMSELVES. I feel like I need a sledge hammer to impart this information to you, you are just fucking deliberately missing the information I am trying to impart on you.
>>748272668What part of ORIGINAL NAME do YOU not understand? Again, that Mechgodzilla 2 bullshit name was just for America. It's still called "Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla" in Japan. The Japanese name is the only one that matters to me.
>>748272861So it's okay when Japan does it.
>>748272861Answer me this then, where in the original Japanese cut of Mechagojira no Gyakushu does anyone refer to him as "Mechagodzilla II?" As far as I'm aware, that name was only ever used in extended material, which you to have a blatant disregard of regardless of source or officiality.
>>748269991I haven't seen his review of shin since it came out but I remembered that he liked it. it wasn't his personal favorite but he thought it was a good return to form and was happy toho was producing new godzilla movies again.
>>748273147>which you to have a blatant disregard of*which you seem to have a blatant disregard of
I just want a fourth Pipeworks-style fighting game that has:-everyone from both versions of Unleashed-Gabara-Showa Rodan-Gorosaurus-Mogera-Kamacuras-Kumonga-Ebirah-Manda-Hedorah-Gezora-Kamoebas-Ganimes-Bagan-Zilla-The Gryphon-Kong (based on his KKvG version with lightning powers)-Mechani-Kong-Monster X / Keizer Ghidorah-Shin Godzilla-Godzilla Filius-Godzilla Ultima-Minus-One Godzilla
>>748267070Never bet against the lizard king.
>>748273823>The GryphonI remember seeing someone mention The Gryphon for the Atari games WAAAAAAY back in the day, on Toho Kingdom probably.You must be as ancient as that script, and I admire your dedication. But sorry, I'd rather have Black Moth since he actually exists. And Godzilla 1998 is better than the 1994 script.
>>748262557>remaking a janky dated fighting game instead of making a new better one
>>748262557Looks terrible.
>>748274330>janky dated fighting gameTell me you never played it without telling me.
>>748273907I've been wanting to see this bad boy in a film or game for years, especially after that fan film made in 2023.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baMFh69gp98>spoilerHard disagree there, GINO's movie was a great Beast From 20,000 Fathoms remake but a horrible Godzilla movie.
>>748262557Just play the one giant Save The Earth Melee mod that one psycho spent years making, play as Gamera, Zilla, whatever you want.The only reason they're releasing this half-assed one is because the company felt threatened at being shown up by a fan game.
>>748269487I'd put Final Wars on there because it's what people would want out of their first Godzilla filmBut that does introduce the problem of their first Godzilla film being the most kino in the franchise.So the only logical solution is>watch Final Wars>if you're hooked watch more Godzilla>eventually return to Final Wars with a new appreciation
>>748274592I love this "they only did thing because some random person made them threatened" conspiracy silliness.
>>748274371Gameplay > graphics.
>>74826948791 is my 3rd favorite of Heisei, but it is a terrible introduction to Ghidorah. 1974 vs. Mechagodzilla should be on there. Also Zone Fighter
