Ghostbusters Game Review - Hey Poor Player

Ghostbusters is a movie tie-in title that has little to do with the original or 2016 movie, touted as a four-player dungeon crawler. Check out our review here.

Ouch. I was hoping more for something in line with the one that came out a few years ago, but I guess not.

dead_pixels3610d ago

It's definitely a shame. In the worst case I was hoping for a competent Gauntlet clone to pass the time with. Looks like I'll have to steer clear of this one.

FullmetalRoyale3610d ago

It's always a shame when I see games release that look soulless, same for movies. Personal taste accounted for, it seems to happen way more often, than not. Though I love me some games, and movies.

Lego Dimensions Ghostbusters Story Pack. It'll be a better game, tell the movie's story and give some peace of mind to this whole mess.

Christopher3610d ago

Practically hidden away until release. It was doomed from the get-go, IMHO.

Sony should give up on the Ghostbuster IP for another 10 or so years and then possibly make a new game or something. Just leave the movies where they area.

-Foxtrot3610d ago

Shit....just like the film then

Least they aren't scared to mark the game down incase they are called sexist.

calebturner3610d ago

I only wanted mediocrity! That's all I wanted! :( great review though.

slappy5083610d ago

My condolences to the reviewer that had to waste his/her time playing through this

New Ghostbusters Game "Definitely Happening" Says Ernie Hudson; Confirms Involvement

It looks like a new Ghostbusters game is on the way, and Ernie Hudson, who played Winston Zeddemore in the franchise, is part of it.

CrimsonWing691627d ago

I hope it’s like the one that felt more like Ghostbusters 3 and not like the twin stick shooter one.

KingofBandits1627d ago

Id love a sequel to the last full console game, that isometric one not so much. I would like to see some bigger funding behind this, using UE5.

sourOG1627d ago

Yes. I’m kinda glad that the new writers can’t come up with anything original. It paves the way to my favs

MrBobSugar1626d ago

Imagine how cool an open-world RPG Ghostbusters game would be.

VTKC1626d ago

Yes yes! More like the game made during PS3 xbox360 era where you play as the new recruit getting to try out Egon's new experimental weapons and go along with the original cast for the adventure. And make it fully co operative through the story please. Would be so much fun playing together, actually teaming up with tactics or roles in catching ghosts. Each character could have different abilities.

Friday the 13th: The Game Developer Ilffonic Working on a Ghostbusters Game

Illfonic, the studio behind Friday the 13th: The Game, Predator: Hunting Grounds & more, are working on a new Ghostbusters game!

CrimsonWing691703d ago

Can it not be an asymmetric multiplayer game? Like I’m all for a co-op experience but these guys seem to focus on making stuff like Evolve except they somehow acquire these awesome movie IPs.

jznrpg1703d ago

Yeah I don’t care for Evolve formula . I’d love to play a Friday the 13th game like Nintendo had back in the day but I just don’t have the interest in MP 99% of the time .

Nitrowolf21703d ago

Yeah if it’s following the same 4v1 formula no thanks. I think it’s time for Illtonic to ditch that and try something new.

They get big licenses and TBH they do put a lot of great details into the games, but they never are as big as one hopes for them to be. Also usually very buggy

BlackDoomAx1703d ago (Edited 1703d ago )

I hope it will be. They are good at it.

sourOG1703d ago

Ghostbusters is one of my favorite movies, I was hyped until I saw the developer. The 4 vs1 model isn’t my jam.

"The latest mainstream Ghostbusters video game was Ghostbusters: The Video Game, which was originally released back in 2009, and developed by Terminal Reality. It was re-released for the PS4, Xbox One in October 2019."

Funny how you forgot to mention is was also ported to the Switch I own the Switch copy. Multiplayer I am not a big multiplayer person campaign co-op I would be down busting ghosts with a friend. I am curious to see how they will pull it off since the passing of Harold Ramis. Will they use the kids from the movie trailer, will they use a future cast like the Extreme Ghostbusters. Will they use the Ghostbusters from the cartoon you throw in the 4 women Ghostbusters and I will pass on the game that was the shittiest Ghostbusters movie ever and a waste of cash.

i am not too hyped with the asymmetric multiplayer part. i hope they just do something like a singleplayer game with co-op on the side.

Hawk1986661703d ago

Please NO! terrible Devs, both games absolutely suck!
