What do American's know about monsters and monster movies?

Before Godzilla, Gamera, or King Ghidorah, there was a giant ape named King Kong who swatted planes down from the Empire State Building. Yes, those last few American-made Godzilla movies may have lacked finesse, but the land of Cadillacs and cowboys holds a place in the history of monster cinema for coming up with "King Kong."

And so it should be no surprise that Capcom's "War of the Monsters," certainly the finest giant monster game to appear on PlayStation 2, was actually created in the United States. "War of the Monsters" was created by Incog, a Sony-owned development house in the backwoods U.S. state of Utah -- the state known for Mormons and mountains.
