    I had the opportunity to interview one of the lead designers on the Pipeworks Godzilla games, and he shared a lot of interesting facts about the development of each game, like: -Destroy All Monsters Melee saved Pipeworks from being shut down. They were working on an original Xbox project called Raven and Rex around the time Melee was being made, but the project was canned, and it left Pipeworks in a precarious spot. They finished Melee, it was a hit, and Pipeworks survived. -The final version of Save the Earth was made in five months. Atari wanted a game similar to "GTA," where you went around fighting the military and other monsters. However, it was very boring since the military posed no threat, and they spent over a year working on that version before it was scrapped and restarted development. -No one on the team liked the Wii motion controls. They were forced by Atari to implement them and though they tried to create a reasonable set-up, they could never get the motion controls right. The scope of the adventure mode was pared down because of time and money, plus all the cut-scenes were done by one-artist since the studio they had hired to animate them dropped out to pay disputes.

I was a very active member of the atari forums during Unleashed's development and I remember them making a post about them re-working the motion controls and that was a big deal in the community up to the game's release. "Bro they spent SIX MONTHS fine tuning the motion controls! I was 13 when unleashed came out and I loved it lol.

    The PS2 version and the Wii version are not the same game. The ps2 version doesn't have any of the new monsters or mechanical changes. The ps2 version of Unleashed is Save the Earth with different stages, the story from unleashed, no rage, an extra Mothra (Battra) and an extra Orga (Obsidious) - they're clones with almost no differences in their movesets. The Wii version of the game was the definitive Godzilla Unleashed, the ps2 version was a strange afterthought.

    In destroy all monsters melee you never went over the not full power attacks. Mecha-king ghidorah has stun missiles, Destoroyah has a magnet bomb, Godzilla has firebombs, The mechagodzillas have missiles, and I’m not gonna name them all but everyone has one. Also Mothra is an ability so you could’ve mentioned that. I’ve been working on the different campaign difficulties to get all the time slots this past week. Some of these things could just be Xbox version add-ons though, like Mechagodzilla 3(Kiryu). Overall though good video and it’s nice to see another actual Godzilla fan and not just someone talking about how it’s a big monster game.

The story mode was baller since you could defeat the monster that had the crystals power or destroy the crystal itself to win. Even then some monsters had sorta unique dialogue as you played through. It’s definitely worth the play time.

    @@sonofaballer96 You can probably find the reddit post if you type in "godzilla destroy all monsters melee tier list". His main argument (at this point, he has over 10,000 hours in the game) is that blocks worked better in Melee and the beam clashes became an easy way to harass and drain the enemy's energy when you have a guaranteed way to deplete all of their energy. The other criticism was that the game gave too much of an advantage to being "downed" because you can use a "recovery" attack that breaks all forms of blockings. Essentially, it became strategically advantageous to get knocked over.

I imagine it's a constant pinball of wake up attacks when players play (minus the ones you can jump over it). If Save The Earth had the same combat as DAMM, then it could've easily been the best. DAMM feels small, but it's satisfying to play. STE is bigger, but it has more jank. Hopefully the overhaul mod can feel like DAMM. Overall STE is still fine, it just didn't need to fix what's not broken.

If you run through a bunch of buildings or hop over short buildings, the rolling enemy cant follow you and the attack can be avoided.

    I play Unleashed all the time at my job with GameTruck! I had it as a kid too so it was a heavy nostalgia trip. I’ve learned from recent experience the motion controls work a lot better if you position your forearms on your knees while kitting down and only moving your wrists. I believe that when people try to flail the remote around the game gets confused on where the controller is so if you limit the movement to small ones the game responds a lot better. 👍

    The Mechagodzilla thing is interesting.2 was used for the Gamecube version in our version, but in the Japanese version he was replaced with Kiryu. They replaced him because Godzilla against Mechagodzilla wasn't released outside in the US yet. In the Xbox version, they included both (and everytime I went to see my cousin I played as Kiryu when we'd play...cause I had the Gamecube version)

Save the Earth was great, but Melee will always be my favorite due to the absurd launch distances and shorter matches from the reduced health pools. Fights could drag on forever in StE. Sucks we both had to suffer Unleashed to play as our favorite Biollante!

    I used to play Godzilla: Unleashed on the PS2 with my best friend when we were kids. I remember one time it was 1v1, I was Godzilla 90s, and he was Godzilla 2000. For some context, we liked having beam struggles a lot, and this one time, I was like, "I wonder how close can get and have a beam struggle?" So we started having beam struggles, each time getting closer. On the last one, we were practically a Kaiju arm's length from each other, and we started charging up our atomic breaths at the same time. It was timed so perfectly, and when the Godzillas released the beams, in a single second, we saw the flash of the collision/explosion, and our tv turned off. We looked at each other like 😳. It was a CRT TV, so if you remember those, then you remember the way it turned off, the laser sound and the screen would black out towards the center of the screen. I will always remember this because, as a kid, I was losing my shit because I thought we had just done something absolutely super cool and badass. We, of course, tried to recreate it several times but never managed to do so again.

    Mothra was in Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee, just not as a playable monsters. She only appeared if you pick up a purple Mothra AirStrike power-up. Once pick-up she will help whoever summons her so if you were the ones to pick-up she will appeared to help zap your opponent. After several zaps she will disappeared. Think of her (in Super Smash Bros. term) as more of an assist trophy in the game.

    Imma gush about the cool parts of Unleashed that didn't get mentioned in the video: The big gimmick for Unleashed was having the monsters reach Critical Mass by destroying crystals scattered across the environment. All the monsters got bigger and got thier own "Burning Godzilla" form that dealt more damage before slowly draining. One of the boss battles had the Aliens keep King Ghidorah in that form while tasking the player and two companions to kick the crap out of him. For all the stories but Mutants, the last mission had you and one representative from the other factions duking it out with another monster from yours showing for each one you take out. The final boss turns out to be Space Godzilla who emerges from a giant crater in the center of the map. Who you helped and hurt in each game would effect how you stand with that monsters faction, making them more prone to attack or ignore you. You could play as Gigan and end up having the EDF and Defenders just destroying the map all round. The powerups of the game had to be collected by defeating the monsters they were effecting during select missions. Collecting all the powerups regardless of Faction would end your story and put you in the Mutants last mission: give you permanent critical mass, everyone hating you, and a 1v8 to prevent you from being the dominat life form. The monsters got cryptic hints on how to unlock them in the form of screenshots showing what faction to play and what to do to get the chance to fight them. Biolatte was easiest by destroying a vine covered building in Tokeyo and hinted in the cutscene that plays the first time you go there. Varan the hardest as the stage he hides on also needs to be unlocked when the aliens invade. (Destroying the mothership is agony to attempt due to bad controls.) Seattle was covered in health draing lava. Any monster able to fly above it/Obsidius who was immune, had an easy time just heavy slamming opponents that followed them into it. The crystals and alien invasion at the same time was a coincidence. Space Godzilla just happened to ram into them on his way to Earth and damaged thier mother ship when they were about to attack.
