Story Breakdown: King of the Monsters 1 & 2 (Neo Geo)

One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

This past weekend proved that Godzilla is not only the King of the Monsters, but also the king of the box office. However, for those of us who grew up playing Neo Geo games, the real King of the Monsters are Geon, Woo and Astro Guy. That's right, I'm talking about SNK's over-the-top beat 'em up where giant monsters fight each other while destroying our biggest cities. Turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to spoil the stories and endings for King of the Monsters and King of the Monsters 2: The Next Thing on the Neo Geo. This is Game Over: The Early Years.


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!
