While it's certainly the same engine powering the game, the small number of tweaks and adjustments actually hurt the overall package. Everything together will require around ten hours.Īll of this is pretty much useless unless the gameplay holds up. Anyone familiar with the gameplay will have all the kaiju unlocked in a matter of hours. One of them is filled entirely with stills and concept art from "Godzilla Final Wars." New cities, which can be used in the various multi-player games, can be slowly unlocked as the game moves on. These can be used to not only unlock more monsters (a meager six out of 18 are available from the start), but to view some artwork in the galleries. Almost everything can be played online as well, probably the most welcome edition out of this long list.Įverything you do while playing the game yourself earns points. Players can also take on challenges, which are various mini-games unlocked through playing in the other modes. Survival is a new addition, challenging players to take on as many adversaries as possible with one life bar. Melee is just as fun as it was previously, letting up to four players rip each other apart. Versus is exactly what is says it is, letting two players tear up various locales. Solo players can tackle the action mode, renamed from the previous games adventure. Non-playable new additions include Ebirah and Battra. Getting in the game for the first time is Space Godzilla, Baragon, Megaguirus, Moguera 2, Jet Jaguar, and the previously unplayable Mothra (in both larvae and adult form). If you're going to invade a planet, might as well do it in style.įor the second round, the extraterrestrials have requested the services of a few new creatures. In search of Godzilla's precious DNA, the aliens begin to cause havoc across the planet using the best weapon available: Japanese giant monsters. Once again, the Vortaaks have declared war on Earth. The problem is that it's not, and with a rather long development cycle, most of it is inexcusable.
"Save the Earth" suffers from a wealth of rookie mistakes, many of which would have been acceptable for an initial title in a series. Two years after Pipeworks found success with "Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee," they have decided to forego the system that launched the series, Nintendo's Gamecube, to distribute the sequel on the Playstation 2 instead. I reviewed it for G-Fan (and here on DP though it's not up yet) and just blasted it. Save the Earth is a massive dissapointment.
