Key Game Features:

Cast from the Original Films
Ghostbusters: The Video Game features the original film cast from the classic Ghostbusters films, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson. Aykroyd and Ramis also return to write the script and storyline for the game. Enter an exciting gameplay environment that authentically recreates the whimsical time period of the film and expands the lore and supernatural events that seemingly plague New York City.
Packaging: The packaging for all platforms is fairly uniform and very attractive. This one is unique from other platforms (other than the Wii), due to the design of the characters. They are cartoonish, rather than realisitic.
Gameplay: The game format is set up in the now popular 3rd person. You're really thrown into the Ghostbusters' world, as you try to release traps and focus your proton beams! You really get to feel as though you're the Ghostbusters' new recruit! On Playstation 2, you can only play one player at a time. This limitation is rather disappointing. As we mentioned before, the character designs are different in this version of the game. Other than that, its pretty much on-par with other platforms.
Sound: The sound on this game is optimized and the effects are fantastic. The music is fitting and really adds to the atmosphere. The game, as you may know, features the voices of the film actors: Bill Murray, Dan Ackroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson. This is without a doubt the funnest aspect of this game. It makes the game what it is..a truly fun experience.
Storyline: Its FUN! I won't spoil it for you, but we really feel that any Ghostbusters fan, casual or serious, would be pleased with the story. The game does a nice job of not completely immersing you in cinematics, but still gives a lot of fun time.
Rating: I cannot recommend this game enough. 5 out of 5
