Godzilla to go to PS2 with more monsters

Slight frustration may strike Wii-owning monster fans today, in the wake of Atari announcing that Godzilla: Unleashed will not be a Nintendo exclusive anymore.  The title that was previously coming to Nintendo Wii and DS will now release at the same time (Autumn 2007) on PS2.

In addition to this, Atari with developer Pipeworks have added new monsters to the PS2 version, though they're not saying how many.  We're guessing a handful, which will probably use coding from existing monsters.  Effectively, recolours. To programe and design completely new characters from scratch would probably take too long at this late stage.

Wii and indeed DS gamers can take some satisfaction from the fact that PS2 gamers won't be able to use the wiimote controls and access the wire free, tilt sensitive gaming in 3D space that they will.  DS gamers will also have the advantage of touch accurate gaming, with the DS stylus adding a unique twist to the game play controls.  In short, unless you're a card carrying Godzilla collect 'em all type, we'd still recommend getting the Wii or DS version anyway.
