Gigan: Cybernetic Monster |
| Although
fairly quick, Gigan lacks in terms of damage to make him
very competitive. He has only a limited number of moves
to work with, while his only real standout attack is his
Spinning Fury; however, that can completely drain his
energy after only a few uses and doesn't deal a tremendous
amount of damage, even if all five hits connect, for the
amount of energy required. |

| Moves |
 |
Hammer Claw
(II) |
| Gigan,
very quickly, flails his Hammer Claw in front of him in
an attempt to strike the opponent. This attack is very
quick overall, but is not well equipped for being comboed
as it knocks away the opponent on strike. This attack
can also be done in midair, although only once. |
 |
Crouched Strike
(While ducking, II) |
| While
positioned near the ground, Gigan will reach out with
his Hammer Claw to make a quick swipe. This move is fast,
making it easy to combo, but sadly lacks much range. |
 |
Kick (While
jumping, Down, II) |
| A
simple midair move, where the cyborg monster reaches out
with the foot closest to his opponent in an attempt to
kick him. |
 |
Laser Beam
(Hold II)  |
| The
cyborg monster releases a laser from his forehead, the
length of which depends on how long II is held before
being released. The beam can be angled, either down or
up, if a desired direction is pressed on the d-pad before
being fired. This move can also be used while jumping,
although the beam will break off into smaller bursts as
he falls. Sadly, in terms of projectiles, this attack
deals very little damage. |
 |
Flamethrower
(Down, Forward, II)  |
| Gigan
opens his mouth to unleash a stream of fire in the direction
of his opponent, the duration of which depends on how
long II is held. The attack can be aimed in a desired
direction by pressing Up or Down. |
 |
Spinning Fury
(Down, Back, II)  |
| Extending
his Hammer Claws, Gigan begins to spin as he attacks across
the screen in a whirlwind like fashion. Depending on how
close Gigan is to the other player when he begins this
move, Spinning Fury can strike the opponent up to five
times. |
 |
Buzzsaw (Down,
II) |
| With
his opponent held tight, Gigan's buzzsaw begins to spin
rapidly as the cyborg monster cuts his foe numerous times
on the sharp blades. |
