After strapping on your proton pack, you're quickly shown the basics of handling your unlicensed nuclear accelerator, and then sent off to track down some escaped ghosts.

When Ghostbusters was first announced it was hard not to be sceptical about how well the game would turn out, after all it’s not often a movie turned game ends up any good and it also didn’t help that the game was dropped by its original publisher.

The involvement of the cast wouldn't mean squat if the game failed to deliver though, but fans can rest assured that Ghostbusters: The Video Game is a great third-person shooter first and foremost, with the licence providing the sweet, delectable icing on

When the original Ghostbusters movie hit movie theaters, it not only became a box office success but it was also one of those comedies that had become a timeless classic for every generation to love.

As far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a Ghostbuster. It was right up there with wanting to be a Jedi or He-Man (I've always had realistic goals in life).

If we had to describe Ghostbusters: The Video Game in one word, that word would be 'authentic'. If given the liberty of a couple more, the next one would be 'hilarious', and we'd follow that up with a 'fangasm' chaser. Ghostbusters is great.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game conjures up lots of happy memories not only from the classic films, but also key moments from our youth; receiving our first proton pack, playing with the toys, accidentally dripping slime onto the couch.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game is effectively Ghostbusters III, as in 'the movie'. Everything here from the sound effects of your proton pack powering down to the font on those famous boiler suits is spot-on.

I was a little kid when the Ghostbusters movie came out and I went nuts for it. If it was playing in a theater, I snuck in to see it. If a friend's family rented the video, I invited myself over for an extended stay.

Let's get this out of the way: I'm a Ghostbusters Super-Fan. It's my favorite movie, I own a jumpsuit, a movie-accurate Proton Pack and I even cried during an episode of Extreme Ghostbusters when Slimer accidentally killed Eduardo...

It's not all pleasurable, due to some tedious mechanics and other issues, but if what's most important to you is some lighthearted fun, then you'll find enough in this package to keep a smile on your face.

Two years after the Ghostbusters dealt with Vigo the Carpathian in Ghostbusters II, a new exhibit on Sumerian god Gozer the Gozerian is about to open in New York City's history museum.

Ghostbusters. If you don't know the name, stop reading and go check out the original 1984 film that started it all, you youngin'. We'll wait. The sequel isn't bad either.

With the original voice cast reunited and a script penned by Dan Ayckroyd and Harold Ramis, this is essentially the third Ghostbusters movie.

hat's not to say it's a particularly good game though, which is both a shame and deeply irritating.

Despite this though when the action does come it is very, very good! Ghosts, ghouls and the various spawn of hell you encounter throughout the game are varied and pose a good challenge.

When Ghostbusters dropped in 1984, it was a national phenomenon. Everywhere you looked the iconic "No Ghosts" symbol could be found, and people simply couldn't get the catchy theme song out of their heads.

This was a hard review for me, because I really wanted to love this game. I really, really did. But instead, I merely liked it. And now that I have finished it, I honestly have no desire to ever play it again.

5 years ago, almost to the day, the movie "Ghostbusters" was released in the US. It was pretty seriously successful, as you no doubt know, and has spawned more than a few videogames in the intervening years.

But it’s not an even game. Whether the fact that the game was meant to play out like a third movie or not, Ghostbusters is so linear in it’s storytelling it feels like an 8-bit game.
