Gamespot seemed to upload some new movies and junk, but I don't remember seeing an announcement on the site. Just happened to look in the movies section and found new stuff. During the videos, everything seemed to be dying in a hit or two, and I swear I saw the text 'EXP +5' after one of the Episode II monsters died in the Coast stage. One thing nice is that the HUmar in the movie loaded in around 3 seconds, which is cool. Well, onto monster names that I saw:
Merillia (those flower things)
Ul Gibbon (those monkey-like things)
Sinow Berill
Gee (those hornets)
Gal Gryphon (boss)
The Ul Gibbon have the movement much like a Savage Wolf in that they attack when they see your back, however, they walk at a faster pace, and if you approach them, they'll usually leap away (!) to dodge melee attacks, and they spit foie at you if you're at a distance, sometimes spitting said foie at you right after that leap. Or at least that's what I garnered from that one video. These monsters seem cool enough. =P
Gee is nothing more than an organic Canadine. Merillia's are your classic advance-and-swing-mindlessly-monster, except modeled after a booma and not as aggressive as a shark or dimenian. Sinow Berills didn't seem to do anything aside from leap and swing like the Sinows before, except they have that distortion effect with their cloaking device. Boooooooring.
Eh, no biggie. Skinned monters or not, I'm as anxious as ever to get the game.
