    Fun fact! The game is technically incomplete since Pipeworks was forced to rush the game in order to coincide with the release of Godzilla Final Wars. The story mode was supposed to be more extensive and have a subplot where the Vortek Queen disguised herself as a reporter so that she could steal Godzilla’s G-Cells for her nefarious reasons and there were plans to add more characters, like Biollante as you mentioned, but most of them where scrapped even before the game began production for various reasons. Also, there were going to be more bonus stages and levels to play, including one set in Vegas where (according to concept art) you could pick up the guitar of the Hard Rock Cafe Casino and smash it on the head of your enemy.

      The guitar bit would be so cool. The final wars part makes sense since I remember when I played the game there was a section that had concept art of Godzilla Final Wars to promote the movie.

    The weird thing about the games, is that they really show you how effective and innovative a SpaceGodzilla fight could have been in his movie. So many powers, so many things that could have been done. But no...the movie was rushed and we got a monster that just stood around most the time. And the game really did make Megalon and Orga have some new fans which is always a good thing.

    I remember as a kid I went to Blockbuster and rented a Fairy Odd Parents game on Xbox. When I got home and opened the case I was instead greeted with Godzilla Save the Earth. This is what introduced me to Godzilla and was the very start of the biggest and greatest obsession of my childhood.
    Now that I think about it, I wonder if the cashier put the game in there on purpose.

    Fun fact for Biollante. She’s no where near as finished as the developer claimed. She’s missing a lot of moves she deals way too much damage to other monsters and sometimes will just outright crash the game when being played. Shame she wasn’t included. Because Godzilla unleashed was definitely not the ideal debut for our beloved plant monster

    This game was everything in my childhood, that picked it up for me. When he and mom went on a vacation together, he raised me on the VHS Godzilla's and gave me his Godzilla figure from his childhood, I still can't wait till Monday. See it on the play times!!!!!!!!! But doing the monster volleyball when they would go into the green force field and bounce back and you just kept hitting them was so epic! Soon I was babysitting my little cousin and he loved video games, so we would turn the speaker to play a tape, and it was full of children songs, green grass grows all around, man on the flying trapeze, down in Dixie, there was just something so funny to us timing the monster punches kicks and building launches with the lyrics to the songs, so many good memories! I'm so excited this review is here!!!!!!!!! And equally great as the children's songs to mass monster mayhem, is getting to see the Mass monster mayhem voice by the monster island buddies buddies!!!!!!!!
