I learned just the other day that it was, in fact, a two-person costume. Just like the horse variety.
Wasn't DeathGhidorah also 4-limbed, though?

Final Wars was so hugging bad.
Desghidora was indeed quadrupedal but only had one actor in the suit.
I find that most of the redesigns are really good. It’s just that for some baffling reason they drop the ball on the final boss and to a lesser degree, the Big G himself

How many Ghidorahs are there At this point?
Or are they all just evolutions of Ghidorah?

They’re all just the same thing in different reboots/continuities.
Death/Des Ghidorah is the only one that is established as a separate entity from that continuity's Ghidorah.

Im not sure, but I feel like the director struggled to figure out how to direct non-humanoid monsters; look at how much screen time Ghidorah spends as Monster X, or how much time is focused on Gigan and Godzilla compared to other kaiju.
Of course, Godzilla had been in a decline in general popularity for a while by that point, and the budget didn't help, either. I don't hate Final Wars, but it wasn't as great a celebration of G's anniversary as it should have been.
Final Wars does at least let Big G kill the American ’Zilla.
People love to talk about that, and no doubt it was intended to be funny, but that fight really isn't that much shorter than what everyone else who isn't Gigan or Ghidorah gets.
Besides, we all know that Emmerich's Godzilla is more "scared upsized animal" than kaiju, and by nature isn't a fighter. It would run away, dig a hole, and hide until the movie was over. 
I will die on the hill that '98 Zilla was an excellent remake of Beast From 20,000 Fathoms that was inexplicably (ie name recognition) rewritten to be "Godzilla". The movie does a lot of things right for a kaiju flick, it just isn't a Godzilla movie.
It got a lot from The Giant Behemoth as well. It's really a love letter to the whole genre. It's a shame things turned out the way they did. One more pass at the script might have been all it needed.
Honestly, if they had just remembered one basic rule: Godzilla doesn't run from the military, the military runs from Godzilla.
Most of the films other quirks can be forgiven, but that, in my opinion, is where they completely missed the mark.
I think Final Wars suffered from cramming as many monsters into Tik-Tok length fight scenes as possible.
All that and we didn’t even get a new Mechagodzilla like seriously.

True. It’s a cheesy, goofy monster bash. Just… not Godzilla.
Godzilla 98 gave us Godzilla the Animated Series so it was objectively good.
It's not Godzilla but I never let that bother me. In the real world if that creature appeared, the press would immediately nickname it Godzilla and there is nothing you could do about it.
