    Has there been any reports guys, there hasn't been very much activity going on in this thread lately.

    There has been. If nobody else knows the names of the "original" monsters proposed for the game, they are:

    Magmouth
    Firelion
    The Visitor
    Lightning Bug

    (Pretty stupid names but I'll give a discription to from what I saw on IGN.)

    Magmouth: Basically, a dinosaur-like monster composed of solid rocks for the body and molten lava for blood, also features no eyes.

    Firelion: Think a quadruped King Caesar with a firey mane and tail. He features green scales on his legs and back and a gold mask and tan skin with blood red claws.

    The Visitor: Has four appendages coming out of his back and arching foward, each one is tipped with claws similar to Gigan's (Showa). Has a sinous, almost muscle looking, purple shin armored with some pale white armor at it's chest. His head looks, quoting a member from Toho Kingdom, "like a pickle cut down the middle." Like Magmouth, this monster lacks eyes.

    Lightning Bug: He is a purple, mechanical looking fly with sections of his body colored a forest green. Not much else to say.

    (Pretty crappy isn't it? To think we have to give up Toho monsters for these things :cursing: )

    WOW.....those are very stupid names....I think any of us could have come up with something that is better. Firelion....Lighting Bug..... :blink:

    More news, apears that the names are just place holders. These are just there to be able to present these monsters so the people know what might be in the game.

    Atari and Pipeworks are inviting fans to vote for one of four new monsters to be in the GODZILLA: UNLEASHED video game. Now is your chance to shape the future of Toho’s Godzilla universe and help bring a completely new monster to life.

    Designs and descriptions of the four contenders are now on SciFi Japan:

    It'll either be Magmouth or The Visitor for me.

    Why couldn't they just include all of the monsters? They all have an interesting background, but I think Atari is casting all four of these monsters as "too powerful" for some reason.

    Agreed. Magmouth in particular is the best overall, since he brings the most originality and uniqueness to the table compared to other G-kaiju. Visitor's concept is pretty nice too, and his visual design is very appealing as well, so I wouldn't mind him either.

    Lightning Bug might also work for a Kamacuras stand-in. I like the design and fact that he's a cyborg and not fully mechanical. Though I'd honestly prefer Battra Larva as a PC, I'd take this guy over a Battra Imago.

    Firelion...bleh, he's a four-legged, firebreathing/teleportion version of King Seesar with a snazzier look. Honestly, I wish they'd just do Seesar and give that bloke some of this guy's gimmicks.

    Magmouth is original? Fire creatures have been overdone in my perspective.

    The Visitor is just... Uninteresting.

    Lightning Bug is just stupid. Give me Battra anyday.

    Firelion is a King Ceasar stand-in with extra abilities.

    It's, as the owner of Toho Kingdom put it, "a poll to make the least painful choice." (or something like that. Can't quite remember right now.)

    If they put a "none of the above" option, it would most likely be at 100%.

    Fire creatures have been overdone, but a rock/magma combination is quite different. A being comprised of solid rock and/or liquid magma makes for some intriguing abilities I think.

    Herk the Atari Producer indicated at Atari Godzilla forum today that there are plans for more than 16 monsters...

    Quote:
     
    Let me reassure everyone that the "plus" sign in "16+" is not a cop-out. We are planning to have significantly more than 16 monsters in the game, but since we don't have the final ones determined yet, we'll have to stick with "16+" (until we've got the final monster roster locked down).

    So vote away and please post as many useful comments as you can!


    The thread title is: Mr. Strange - Fan Monster Poll

    Herk responded in the Atari thread about voting for kaiju. So he indicates that votes and posts are being monitored. If you haven't voted and commented, here is a link to that thread (no disrespect to mods or admins of Kaiju Galaxy).

    http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showt...925#post8797925

    Herk's post is in the thread acknowledging this.

    And they planned more than 18 monsters for G:STE. Guess what? We only got 18 monsters. I'm pretty positive that history will repeat itself and we will only get 16 monsters this time.

    Whatever, I'm optimistic. They seem fully aware that STE fell far short of what it should've been.

    Yeah, instead of creating a stupid monster with a stupid name(Firelion...jeez) how about you use the original Toho monster, King Caesar, and stop trying to do stupid ripoffs.....

    Well guess what...

    Herk the Atari Producer asks if people would rather see Monster X rather than Kaiser Ghidorah.

    Herk also asks about Mechagodzilla 75. "If you've got Kiryu confirmed for the game, would you rather see other versions of Mechagodzilla added or a completely different monster?".

    He asked this in the Mr. Strange - Official Fan New Toho Monster thread at Atari.

    So 2 questions have been raised. What would be your responses to him?

    Yes guys, please respond to this. I would hate for Kaiser Ghidorah to get the axe based on a poll on a forum.

    I've said it before, I want the potential LAST kaiju, Godzilla will fight to be in the game. Kaiser Ghidorah I thought would be a giving for the game, but obviously not yet.

    Kiryu and MG'75 are almost different monsters, but if it came down to it I would rather want a "different monster" in the game.

    Kaiser Ghidorah to get the axe

    Who said our vote would save him? Who said that the producers haven't already planned on given him the axe? Who said these things aren't only for raising hopes and popularity up? I could go on with questions, but I'm feeling to lazy to bring them up. My point is: Do the producers really care what the fandom thinks? They already got huge backlash from the original monsters, yet they put up a poll forcing us to accept the fact that we might *coughwillcough* lose classics and not see grand monsters like Biollante who always seems to be shoved out at the last minute.

    *sighs* Might as well answer the questions. (not like it will matter.)

    1. put MX in and give him the ability to transform into KG.

    2. Put Mg 75 in to at least try to recover from the horrible backlash the "original" monsters created. Alot of people (from what I see) like the Showa incarnation of Mechagodzilla. That might partially mend the wound the fandom has sustained.

    Huh? Last I checked, the only backlash they recived for the Originals was the names, which were confirmed to be BETA NAMES ONLY. Besides that, I've seen a positive opinion overall on them.

    Monster X is badass. Keiser is lame as hell, make Keiser an uber powered limited-time transformation.

    One of us must have gotten the wrong idea... No matter, they still got a backlash in my veiw and I will consider that to be my opinion so we don't make an arguement out of it (besides, I'm really bad at arguing and perfer peaceful answers.)

    Monster X is not only far cooler than Keizer, he's also far more suited for a balance of melee and beam combat.

    And I'd rather have Showa MG than a new kaiju, though that's simply because he's my favorite of the three, and the only one not to be in a new game so far (heck, I'd rather have him in than either of the other two). The differences between '74 and '75 were minor in the movie and would be downright miniscule in game, so I really don't care which version.

    Timothy? Are you going to relay our opinions to the forum, or would you prefer we joined it and expressed them there ourselves?

    Definetly the Showa Mecha-Godzilla, and Monster X. That would make the game really different. If Monster X could transform, that would be cool too!! While your at it, tell them to make it available for X Box also. I do not want to have to buy yet another video system!!
