It's funny, really, 'Ghostbusters: The Video Game' is a bit of a misnomer. It's Ghostbusters, yes, and it's clearly a video game because here it is loading up in our 360 under 'Game'. But this is, without question, Ghostbusters 3 'the movie'. As a game it's far from perfect, but in a very refreshing turn of events we can confidently say that, for once, that isn't the point. ...

At first glance, Ghostbusters and Left 4 Dead are two very different games. One's an FPS, the other played in third-person. Slimer's residue does not 'attract the horde'. But there's no denying Ghostbusters shares some very welcome features with the 360 and PC shooter - to the extent that the same core gameplay that's been keeping the Radar team glued to its HD TVs for weeks could now be entertaining your entire family. Here are five good reasons why:  ...   » Read Full Ghostbusters The Video Game preview

When Atari's Ghostbusters games ship next year, it'll have been a mere 25 years since Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson first donned their proton packs for the big screen and "Who you gonna call?" was a national catch phrase. In that time there have been a number of videogames that attempted to bring the loveable foursome home, but none have really captured the core spirit of the films. Until now. ...   » Read Full Ghostbusters The Video Game preview

With ex-Sony man Phil Harrison on board and fingers in practically every gaming pie (thanks to distribution deals with publishers the world over), and a brand that everyone recognises, Atari has the foundations in place to become great once again. But, most shockingly, it's actually got some great games to back it up. Here are five games Atari were showing off that we reckon you're going to want to play. ...   » Read Full Ghostbusters The Video Game preview

Who you gonna call? Yourself, and your new experimental Proton pack
Aug 4, 2008
As I stepped out of the Ecto-1 and stood on the steps of the New York Public Library alongside Ernie Hudson, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis (Bill Murray isn’t along for this particular call) listening to the team chatter, Ghostbusters’ Associate Producer Ryan French explained that my experimental proton pack was fully loaded for the purposes of this demo. ...   » Read Full Ghostbusters The Video Game preview

For children of the '80s, there are many pop culture touchtones - just watch VH1 on any given Sunday and you will see dozens of examples. One of the biggest was Ghostbusters, and after two decades since Ghostbusters II and the series' descent into nostalgic obscurity, it's making a return in a big way to consoles and PC. That is a damn sight better than Extreme Ghostbusters...Granted, thanks to the wonders of the internet and ...   » Read Full Ghostbusters The Video Game preview
