10:31 Godzilla taking damage from destroying buildings? That's like Wolverine taking damage by using his claws! That's plain ridiculous! ...oh, wait...
I actually had the gameboy game and quite enjoyed it, its a challenging puzzle-like game. The fun fact is though, that as a small kid I actually wanted "Bubble Bobble" and I asked for "the game with this dragon", so i got this.
The Game Boy version is actually a localization of a previous Compile puzzle game released for the MSX called Gojira-kun (or Godzilla-kun). Interesting that this game came from the same developers as The Guardian Legend and Puyo Puyo.
+FoxyAPirateFox sadly it seems there won't be any more good Godzilla games for a while. That new one that came out was apparently horrible. Pretty but has the gameplay of two slugs fighting. If they re-released the Wii version of Godzilla Unleashed, because it has way more monsters that the PS2 version, for the new systems with the same graphics is be excited as hell.
+KiriUzu i bought the newest godzilla game day 1 because of how much I love godzilla. It is singlehandedly the WORST game I have ever played in my entire life. It's so bad. I returned it 2 day later and got $ 40 for it. The worst purchase I have ever made.
@Victor Ybarra the ps4 game.......people tend to dislike that one, i think because it is not a "fighting" game like those mentioned before and it seems that only Godzilla is playable
@Victor Ybarra I have the game, you can be different monsters. It's pretty good but it's one of those games where when you unlock everything there's nothing to do. But I would recommend it to G fans.
There is no other UA-camr that I enjoy rewatching videos from so much. I rarely want to watch a video more than once, but I could re-watch these on repeat and never get bored.
I was a big Godzilla fan myself as a kid. My mom got me Godzilla 2 for the NES for Christmas one year-she figured "Hey, its Godzilla, he'll love it!" And the cover art sure looked promising. Then I played it. Oh boy...then I played it.
+Bryan Snyder The other big one was the time I got the Robocop game for the NES. The very next day my poor mother had the flu and was in bed all day while I was in the next room playing it so she had to hear that music over...and over..and over.

The PS2 era, Godzilla games were ahead of their time IMO. Up to 4 players, melee, grappling, smash buildings and even rag-doll mechanics. Even if you don't like Godzilla (because that's why you're here right?), these are damn fun games. But as you would expect, f**king video games critics tell you to not like these games.

Monster of Monsters could definitely do with a remake. It would not incorporate all the characters and levels shown from the CreepyPasta like Red or the labyrinths, but I’d be happy if it includes all the Godzilla baddies before and after the NES game subject to a solid CreepyPasta.

Whenever I feel bad about the current state of the games industry, i always go back to these vids, compare the retro games to the modern ones seeing just how much gameplay has evolved, and think to myself, "it could always be worse".
Luckily I was born just in time to play those three great fighting games he played at the end growing up. If you haven't played any of them yet and want to get one go for Destroy all Monsters Melee.
FlammableKing unleashed for the ps2 is a worse version of save the earth. It's got no new content, obsidious is a clone character of orga, they have the same exact moves, and battra may be an exclusive but he's just a clone of mothra, same moves and all.
Clones aside, I do like that the game feels more combo-friendly, and has a larger roster than Destroy All Monsters: Melee. Those are the two pros to its cons.
FlammableKing the wii version has like 27 monsters. It isn't as combo friendly though. I feel like the reason it feels more combo friendly is how slow the game goes from the lag, it makes it easier to plan combos.
This video really inspired me to get into Godzilla, and I watched all 29 movies during the summer. I became a huge fan and it's even better to rewatch this video since I actually know and understand what he's talking about. So thank you Nerd, I feel like I'm a richer person. :D
@@cynicalcharclone5894 Enjoy that one I've heard it's great. Another good one in my opinion is Final wars. Enjoy the Godzilla movies though. There is something for everyone>
It did have one thing the big budget movies these days seem to have forgotten to do.... It was entertaining. You think of all the big films that have gone on this year alone! Most of the runtime is a snooze-fest! They even sucked all the fun out of Independence Day! I would rather watch the fun, tongue and cheek version of Godzilla than the one they did a few years back. Hell I would even go as far to say I could easily watch Batman Forever & Batman & Robin back to back and enjoy it more than the Nolan wank fest. Batman may have had nipples on his outfit but he didn't sound like he'd had a stroke!
And the godzilla roar from the american 98 movie was good enough that every future godzilla movie actually used it, so not everything about the 98 movie was lambasted
12:32 - Me seeing an article in Nintendo Power about a new 3D Kirby game in development for GCN. I freaking loved Kirby when I was little, so I was hyped. Years passed and no signs of progress were ever mentioned. The only thing ever mentioned afterward was that its development was switched over to Wii. It could have turned out to be Return to Dream Land, but that's a long-ass time span for a Kirby game.
Those games on PS3, GC and Xbox were fucking awesome but I played them way after my obsession with Godzilla. But nowadays I don't even think the top game developers and publishers wouldn't even consider making a good Godzilla game. The golden era in gaming was the sixth generation of consoles. All the best stuff happened between '99 and '05

FlammableKing unleashed for the ps2 is a worse version of save the earth. It's got no new content, obsidious is a clone character of orga, they have the same exact moves, and battra may be an exclusive but he's just a clone of mothra, same moves and all.
Clones aside, I do like that the game feels more combo-friendly, and has a larger roster than Destroy All Monsters: Melee. Those are the two pros to its cons.
FlammableKing the wii version has like 27 monsters. It isn't as combo friendly though. I feel like the reason it feels more combo friendly is how slow the game goes from the lag, it makes it easier to plan combos.
Who is here again after watching Godzilla King of Monsters?.
Me...lol
Me
Saw it yesterday. Makes me wish they still made Godzilla games
Me
Here we are. Destroy all Monsters is where it all began
This video really inspired me to get into Godzilla, and I watched all 29 movies during the summer. I became a huge fan and it's even better to rewatch this video since I actually know and understand what he's talking about. So thank you Nerd, I feel like I'm a richer person. :D
7:15 when godzilla looks at the google map
The NES game was okay in my opinion. It was a lot of fun, but DAMN was the creepypasta amazing.
The creepypasta also had waaaaay better graphics!
bratchny82 You don't say? Haha.
the only reason i know of the nes game is because of the creepypasta. 11/10 would read and watch again.
Nathaniel Shewman Looks like I was early.
+Nathaniel Johnson What the hell is a "creepypasta"? possessed food?
Watching cause I got interested in Godzilla recently
The new movies and Kong Skull Island defintely made me want to go back and watch ALL of the movies.
JD Wolff Which ones have you seen
Godzilla 8000 Godzilla VS Megalon so far. I’m about to watch the 2002 Godzilla VS Mechagodzilla movie soon.
@@cynicalcharclone5894 Enjoy that one I've heard it's great. Another good one in my opinion is Final wars. Enjoy the Godzilla movies though. There is something for everyone>
Me 2
You will never know Godzilla Unleashed unless you've played it on the Wii
dude hell yeah thats what i played it on and it was sweet
It was the only *true* way to experience the game. Well worth the money. My childhood was amazing cuz of the on that console.
the motion controls made it great. I also had godzilla destroy all monsters on the gamecube and that game was the this as well
Saith X Roker I hate how they changed the combat style on the wii. The Xbox and ps2 games were better
I love the controls for the PS2 and the Wii, :)
14:30-until the end of the video, watching it in 2x feels like you try to empathize with AVGN anger, but instead you're laughing.
That gameboy godzilla game was so cute!
***** tell that to this one chibi Godzilla series they used to have in Japan called Godzilla Island Friends or some shit
Samaugsch I loved that game as a kid, I think it's pretty good.
LOL I thought it was adorable!
12:23 if you turn on subtitles it says *extremely awesome music playing* props to whoever wrote that.
I don't happen to see it there. I think you meant 13:23 ?
It's almost as great as your pfp
RadicalEdward37 *L E W D*
Still my favorite episode of AVGN after 8 years.
I'm surprised he hasn't done another video on Godzilla games considering he's a huge fan of the franchise
Probably that haven't been much Godzilla games since then. The last one that was hyped ended up being a letdown
New Godzilla fan here. Thank you, James, for inspiring me to buy and watch _every_ Godzilla movie. Totally worth it.
Granted the 98' Godzilla film was kinda bad (I don't hate it as much cause I was a kid when it came out), but the soundtrack made up for it!
AND it was the film that got people like me interested in Godzilla.
It did have one thing the big budget movies these days seem to have forgotten to do.... It was entertaining. You think of all the big films that have gone on this year alone! Most of the runtime is a snooze-fest! They even sucked all the fun out of Independence Day! I would rather watch the fun, tongue and cheek version of Godzilla than the one they did a few years back. Hell I would even go as far to say I could easily watch Batman Forever & Batman & Robin back to back and enjoy it more than the Nolan wank fest. Batman may have had nipples on his outfit but he didn't sound like he'd had a stroke!
And the godzilla roar from the american 98 movie was good enough that every future godzilla movie actually used it, so not everything about the 98 movie was lambasted
The O.S.T. was not bad, pretty dope actually - some of the tracks really kicked ass, as opposed to the movie sucking ass, looking back... :P
The animated series dude
12:32 - Me seeing an article in Nintendo Power about a new 3D Kirby game in development for GCN. I freaking loved Kirby when I was little, so I was hyped. Years passed and no signs of progress were ever mentioned. The only thing ever mentioned afterward was that its development was switched over to Wii.
It could have turned out to be Return to Dream Land, but that's a long-ass time span for a Kirby game.
Well, now we have Kirby and the Forgotten Land, so how do you feel now?
Just rewatched this after having watched Godzilla vs Kong.
I remember playing Godzilla unleashed on the wii. Good times
fuck you bro!
I know right! Bla bla bl-
Same! as well as Destroy all Monsters Melee

"That's a sensible solution: kick the top of a volcano." lol
14:15 that's what you call a nerdgasm.
I absolutely love when he bellows "FUUUUUUCKKKK!!!" in this episode.
FUUUUUCCKKK..!!!..
I became a Godzilla fan from your reviews and this video. Thank you, so frickin much. I never realized how much I needed Kaiju battles in my life.
Those games on PS3, GC and Xbox were fucking awesome but I played them way after my obsession with Godzilla. But nowadays I don't even think the top game developers and publishers wouldn't even consider making a good Godzilla game.
The golden era in gaming was the sixth generation of consoles. All the best stuff happened between '99 and '05
3:18 Mortal kombat characters also dont bend their knees when they jump
I don’t bend my knees when I kump either 🥴
I just kump...!
"Kump" ..... this comment was edited ...... keep that in mind ..
@@nra3zehuti781 its a knee jump..kump
Godzilla: destroy all monsters melee is a great game! Classic from my childhood, honestly for the time it was a great game!
Arguably Nerd's best episode because of his fanaticism for Godzilla. True emotions in this one even though he's playing it up.
The game's not laughing when you pick Mothra. It's laughing the entire time you're playing it.
1:40 I love the "during my lifetime" implying the nerd is dead now
10:21 You when someone takes the last of the chicken nuggies
14:20
I only remember this because of the NES Godzilla Creepypasta
And that's why I'm glad UA-cam didn't exist during my childhood. It's why your all brain dead.
That’s why I’m here

Red was cheap as ever but thanks to Melissa gave you new character to beat Red.
I never played a Godzilla game until game cube. I feel bad for James.
I knew it Godzilla Destroy All Monsters Melee is Ultimate badass
14:36 one of my favourite rants of his. very emotive
6:37 When Gamers Rage due to the time limit
*cant break the rules*
That happens to me often
14:10 That's right AVGN, get it out. Get it all out.
If anyone doesn't know the song when he plays the PS2 and Xbox games, it's Godzilla Unleashed's Menu Theme.
Thanks
Rinkatamimotarin Bradford It's not very obvious you bitchy son of a fuck.
It's also Mecha King Ghidorah's theme.
I just love how he says DESUTROYAAAH!
13:22 the music is Mecha King Gidoroah's theme from Godzilla Unleashed. If anyone ever wanted to know where the kick ass music was from, there you go.
