I got a complete copy of Gamecube. I'm letting my friend borrow it right now though since I have Save the Earth on PS2. And have a complete Godzilla Unleashed on Wii coming in the mail Tuesday. Damn they need to release Godzilla ps3/ps4 on digital or give us a new game.
I noticed with Mecha K.G. they also took away its ability to hit grounded opponents with their Away-A attack (The triple headed down slam thing). Meanwhile regular K.G can. Great video!
Oh man, this was nostalgic af. I remember wanting to play as mothra so badly and would always seek her help until i realize it attacks the player who does the most destruction to buildings iirc 😅 loved this game and of course, brawl too
G2K is faster than G90’s, but more vulnerable to edged attacks, as well as the weakened atomic breath. MKG has added beam damage, but also added blunt damage, with heightened edged resistance. And if you’re playing Orga, avoid Ghidorah as much as possible. Ghidorah is faster and resists blunt damage. Megalon on the other hand, gets squashed like a bug by Orga’s blunt attacks. It’s not so much unbalanced as it is engineered to force players to adopt unique strategies for each of their matchups with other characters depending on who they’re using, giving some characters huge, but not insurmountable, advantages against others.
See, I played the Xbox version with Mechagodzilla 3 that rounded out the roster. Kind of a bummer that he was an exclusive, since it means half of the people online don't acknowledge his existence.
Stumbled across this video by complete accident, and damn I'm glad I stuck around, great commentary! Kinda makes me wish there were more videos out there on the meta of this game, super fun to learn about
Yeah not a ton on this one, but there’s a fan made game based on Save the Earth that’s super sick and has more resources. Called Godzilla: Save the Earth Melee, check them out on twitter
Anyone else grow up with thieves that stole their memory card and all super smash bros,double dash, godzilla, and lego star wars characters along with it?
My boyfriend has been playing this a lot with his friends recently, and now I see it on my CZcams feed! I don't know a lot of the terms in the video, but I'm sure he'd love it if I shared this with him :D
I loved this game as a kid. Me and my brother use to play this all the time. One thing I hate about this is going up against destoryah. Man talk about having to battle him countless times before moving to the next stage. No wonder he kicked Godzilla and his son ass in Godzilla last movie before they did the movie with his adult son Jr. This game was ahead of it's time and if they were to do something like this with the new Godzilla and add Kong oh boy.
Yeah, big bummer but that’s how it sometimes went with these back in the day to help drive extra sales. Like Soul Calibur 2 having console exclusive guest characters so you had to buy every version to play all 3 of them
5:22 to be fair to Gigan, alot of these characters were really just wacky and silly in their movie counterparts so, the developers probably wanted to keep that integrity intact for the *fun sake*, kinda of the point of Pipworks studios trillogy. Also gotta cut them some slack too, this was their *first* console platform fighter game. Game balance and jank aside, it's a _timeless classic_ which I feel is missing IMO on modern fighting games, they just don't do this 3d environemnt combat stuff anymore. :/ Mega king Ghidorah being S tier? That I did not expect -- I actually though Destroyah was better cuz of the horn beams being able to punish mid screens (I play on Xbox classic), ranged attacks and sweep at low consistently plus that singular purple star attack from the movies that just pulls the player in, huh... Though on the topic of game balance, I guess if you were to do a tournament, gentlemen's courtey would be no MKG, no Destroyah or Orga?
The tiers are definitely all just personal opinion, room for error there, but the MKG missiles are so insanely busted and his damage resistance on top of that is wild. I do think this game is meant for fun, not bashing the devs on Gigan, just applying some more modern FGC lens here for fun 🤙🏼
@@KRCPinto Ever thought of making a vid about STE's crazy yet tactical mechanics ? Megalon heals from electricity, Rodan heals from fire and all mechs are vulnerable to electricity. Also, Anguirus has the highest life of the bunch.
I think I’m gunna do a full retrospective that’ll go into those too. I did this as a TikTok series and this video is just all the TikToks put together, so it’s a bit on the brief side
I played the hell out of that game when I was a teen. Hell, I still have the box and the disk lol.
Hell yes, such a fun game
@Aleplayer’s Domain hell yeah!
same

@nooctae dose the disc still work tho 👀
Iconic game. King Ghidorah's air beam is one of my favorite attacks in any game, ever.
It’s so ridiculously strong and also feels sooooo movie iconic. Great move
I noticed with Mecha K.G. they also took away its ability to hit grounded opponents with their Away-A attack (The triple headed down slam thing). Meanwhile regular K.G can. Great video!
Definitely fair since mecha has so much bullshit 😂 thank you!
Oh man, this was nostalgic af. I remember wanting to play as mothra so badly and would always seek her help until i realize it attacks the player who does the most destruction to buildings iirc 😅 loved this game and of course, brawl too
I was so glad they added her in Save the Earth, def deserved to be playable!
one of my favorite of my brother's ganecube hand-me-downs fr

Kaiju’s performing combos and juggle combos is sooo entertaining 😂
It’s the best

I originally played that version and he was dope, just didn’t have access while making these unfortunately

Oh yeah, I've been seeing that one around the CZcams recommendeds here and again. Might have to take the plunge and look into that one more.

That’s awesome! All these character breakdowns are on my TikTok too, which is probably easier to sift through if he’s interested
Damn cell phones listening to conversations.
Has your boyfriend tried out Gigabash yet?
@@Dreeza68955 no what’s gigabash?
@@ButtonedUpBailey it's a arena battle gam with Kaiju, they have Godzilla and Ultraman DLC. It's a blast. Lots of Easter eggs too
@@Dreeza68955 that sounds fun! I should let him know 😊 thanks!!
Goji 2k is my fav design for him bc the purple spikes are really cool
One of my first game cube games!
Hell yes, nostalgia squad 🫡
This was a great video dude
Thanks man, I try
Extremely good review bro thank you 💙🙏🏽!
Thank you man!

this is SO FUCKING COOL!! do you plan on making a video for Godzilla Save The Earth?
If I ever get back to making videos, I absolutely will. Been on hiatus for a while, but hopefully soon!
@@KRCPinto id be very much looking forward to it!
You should check out Godzilla Save the Earth Melee. It’s an in-progress mod that overhauls the sequel to this game into a balanced tournament fighter.
I’ve seen it! Those devs kick ass
@@KRCPintoCan we expect s video like this when V2 comes out?
@@mycaleb8 tbh I don’t really make videos much anymore, but never say never
The roster felt like it was missing Mothra (or at least someone like Battra or Megaguirus) in the roster to make it feel satisfying.
Yeah I agree. They fixed that in the next one thankfully
Would have been nice to have their stats on display, too. Seeing as the monsters had that traditional RPG bars for stats
It kind of sucks that MechaGodzilla 3 was only available on the Xbox version. I only had the Game Cube version.
Yeah, big bummer but that’s how it sometimes went with these back in the day to help drive extra sales. Like Soul Calibur 2 having console exclusive guest characters so you had to buy every version to play all 3 of them
Megalon was my go to for sure

If DAMM is this crazy as a fighting game, imagine how STE is with them elemental types such as ice and explosive
Yepp way crazier roster too, STE is sick
It's just as janky if not way more but I like the damage numbers and the resistance mechanics, it feels more balanced than DAMM or Unleashed

Surprised You Didn't Explain Each Rage Attack For The Characters But Good Break Down

@@KRCPinto Ahhhh Ok Ok That's Pretty Good
@@KRCPinto such a coolass game
King Ghidorah is so satisfying
my mom got this 4 me on xbox this game is fun 2 play.
Cover Kiryu in the sequel Saves the World
I shall 🤙🏼
Yessir
I wish i had this game. i only have the ps4 game
I hope you do Save the Earth at some point it's much better then DAM in my opinion.
You are absolutely correct
how come you not not cover space Godzilla
He isn’t in this one, he shows up in the next one, Save the Earth
Stopped watching after 45 seconds when he called my favorite GameCube game ever “shitty”
People still talk about this I love this game
Hell yeah they do, this game rules
@@KRCPinto WOW I thought this game was like not talked about
@@KRCPinto could you make a save the world version of this video
I actually have kriu
@@KRCPinto you should do one on save the earth
+1, commenting for your algo boost.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
i play on gamecube, how do i get all characters?
It’s mostly just playthroughs of adventure with everyone, I’d Google it
Cheat codes :)
1 minute?
1 minute per character
Orga is a rancor debate me
GHIDORA GANG WHERE U AT!!!
Also fun act godzilla is a metaphor for Nuclear bombs
36 comments in a row
not just A nuclear bomb, the WW2 atomic bomb!
@@KRCPinto also where do i need to sign to get us a mecha king gidorah emote
I’ll see what I can do 🤔
was mothra in here or nah
Nah not this one, she shows up as an assist if you grab a certain power up but she wasn’t playable
