So I decided to whip out my dick Xbox 360 Copy of the Ghostbusters: The Video Game. I've owned it for a while, and only today I decided to pop it in, and it's a fun game. The controls feel good for some reason. There isn't a good way to describe it, besides that it feels right. The story is good for a Ghostbusters game. The Ghostbusters hire a rookie just as a paranormal energy wave thing hits New York. Now you, the rookie, must find out what the hell is going on around here! This game has many strong points, such as ghost designs, the aforementioned controls, the acquisition of the original actors, and the proton pack, along with its variants. However, there are a few flaws with the game as well. The characters look stiff, the third person view is slightly disorienting, the lip sync is a bit off, some of the instructions given by the characters can be cryptic, some of the bosses are boring, scanning the ghosts can be frustrating, it's too short, and grinding for pack upgrades gets really old. So, with these flaws, why do I love this game? It might be due to me watching Ghostbusters a ton when I was a little kid, but even without nostalgia goggles, the game might be fun to non-Ghostbuster nerds but most likely will be liked by fans of the series. So buy a used copy and pop it in for a short, fun time.
