Obsidius



Obsidius is a volcanic monster created exclusively for Godzilla: Unleashed. His original name was Magmouth.

Story
Although most of the crystals deposited on Earth by the meteor showers embedded themselves in the surface, some of them managed to punch through the earth's crust and enter the lithosphere. There, brought together by the magma flows from within the earth, a sentient creature was brought to life by the accumulated power of the crystals and the raw, ferrous materials of the earth. Obsidius emerged from a volcano onto the surface world only recently, and thus far has resisted all attempts at communication. His virtually impenetrable mineral exterior shields him against both physical and energy assaults. He advances single-mindedly toward the most unstable crystal formations on the surface, and as such should be considered extremely dangerous.

Development
According to Art Director Robert Caracol, “Magmouth was a combination of two separate concepts. The first was a rocky, craggy creature that was basically solid rock. The second was more akin to flowing magma. In the end, we came up with a blending of the two ideas, arriving at a monster that was a walking volcano. It possessed the hardness and sharpness of solid granite but could also attack using the molten fluid from within its body. One aspect that arose from this design angle was that it would possibly have to eat rock and debris to replenish its reservoir of magma after throwing it up in an attack.”

game advice
In godzilla unleashed obsidius has devestating power and all weapons(exept ice) do not seem to scrach obsideus when in defense. However this defence makes him slower then useual so the main trick is never let him get tangled up in enemey combos always stay ahead of your enemy. If your enemy is distracted get close up and wreck his day with a combo/beam.
