''Godzilla Generations'' was a heavily hyped Dreamcast game not only because it was one of the first titles to be announced, but because reaction had been positive at [[Tokyo Game Show '98 Autumn]]. When released, however, the game was criticised for poor controls and dodgy camera angles. Though the game reportedly sold 22,870 copies and was followed by a sequel, ''[[Godzilla Generations: Maximum Impact]]'', it never left Japan, despite numerous previews and rumours that it would.
