King of the Monsters 2

King of the Monsters 2. I love this game.

I remember getting this game back in Super NES awesome times. I never played the original King of the Monsters, but remember seeing it on the TV show "Nick Arcade". They would show the Neo Geo version on the show.

I only played the Super NES version of KotM2. No one I knew had a Neo Geo back then. I have my Neo Geo now, but lack that game. It be great to play it on the original hardware it was meant for, but judging by screenshots I saw, the SNES version is pretty decent port.

The gameplay was pretty straight forward. You picked between 3 monsters, a robot monkey, an Ultra-man looking fellow, and a Godzilla ripoff. You would rampage through a city beating up small baddies, and face off with a level boss at the end of each level. The game became more difficult as the game progressed. There were power ups to make the monster 2 levels stronger, and you could charge up as well to cause more damage.

All and all, it's a fun game. Everyone should try it out. Good, standard beat-em up side scroll-er.
