    A 50$ MINI GAME..! No way! Never buy this Sh*t!
    The movie is bad as the game! They do not feel the shame from the 2016 Movie version. Now they give us a JUNK.
    There is nothing to say with the game and the movie too.

    God save the people who are playing this game to show everyone how bad this is. While Ride to Hell was partly amusing just because how bad it was, this game is so bad that you just want burn the game disc after every level. I have never seen such a repetetive game like that. And just watching someone else playing it gave me nightmares.

    Absolutely awful. This makes Sanctum of Slime look like a masterpiece. So onto the review then.

    Pros: -The ar style i have to admit isn't awful, it's appealing and the story did give me a chuckle a couple of times but that's about all the good things i'm gonna say about this travesty. Cons: -The gameplay is boring as **** and coming from somebody who likes twin stick shooters    Absolutely awful. This makes Sanctum of Slime look like a masterpiece. So onto the review then.

    Pros:
    -The ar style i have to admit isn't awful, it's appealing and the story did give me a chuckle a couple of times but that's about all the good things i'm gonna say about this travesty.

    Cons:
    -The gameplay is boring as **** and coming from somebody who likes twin stick shooters that's saying a lot.
    -The 4 ghostbusters you control have little to no personality. They are all just stereotypes that we'd all laugh at if we saw them anywhere else.
    -The levels are uninspired to say the least. They just threw a bunch of corridors, put a bunch of flying books and said :Eh that's probably enough nobody's gonna buy this **** anyway right?"

    In conclusion ghostbusters 206 the game much like the movie is a bag of unplayable **** It is boring,repetitive an most of all....IT'S NOT WORTH 60 ****ING DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!    … Expand

    Ghostbusters
    When theres something bad in your video game.
    Im going to start this review by saying this is probably the worst video game I have ever played. This is a dungeon crawler style shooter where you play as 1 of 4 different ghostbusters with up to 4 local co op players… all with their own stats and main weapon… as well as a proton wand… there are 6 locations in this game    Ghostbusters
    When theres something bad in your video game.
    Im going to start this review by saying this is probably the worst video game I have ever played.
    This is a dungeon crawler style shooter where you play as 1 of 4 different ghostbusters with up to 4 local co op players… all with their own stats and main weapon… as well as a proton wand…
    there are 6 locations in this game featuring 1-3 missions that can take everywhere from 7 to 40 minutes each…
    But its pretty much the same thing throughout…
    shoot smaller ghosts.. larger ghosts.. boss ghosts.. checkpoint after checkpoint location after location…
    over and over and over…
    The main problem with this game is that the pacing is way too slow and the combat is overall completely unsatisfying…
    every encounter feels like a boss fight and not because of difficulty but because how spongy every single enemy is…
    the things other dungeon crawlers like diablo get right is that weaker enemies feel like warm butter…
    but here youre shooting for what seems like forever as there are usually doezens of enemies around every corner…
    And to make it worst.. your gun overheats…
    that’s right..
    practically every 10 seconds you have to cool off your gun which brings this game to an unbearable crawl…
    when you do fight a boss, you have to weaken it to a certain point, pull out your proton wand when theyre weak, slam them a few times, and then trap them..
    you then tap x as fast as you can for an xp bonus…
    you can use this xp to upgrade characters skills like the rate in which you over heat and the damage you do.. which isn’t really too noticeable….
    And you get to do all of this while you listen to ghost puns…
    which is actually the best part of the game.
    This game is bad.
    Don’t play it.
    I give Ghostbusters
    my first ever and hopefully last ever

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only reason it exists is to confuse people on Amazon so they can buy this piece of trash instead of the 2009 remastered Ghostbusters videogame.… Expand

    Sadly all the words I would like use to concisely sum up Ghostbusters are not admissible in print. [10/2016, p.62]

    Ghostbusters is unfortunately a very boring and bad game. The four main characters have no charisma and they try to seem funny... but they are not at all. The gameplay is repetitive and the player will be bored in no time, and it is really too bad that the Ghostbusters franchise couldn't be honored with a good game that the original four deserve. Because Ghostbusters is simply worth it, this is not.

    Ghostbusters is one of the worst video games I have ever played. It wears its disdain for the player on its sleeve, and the truly scary thing is that everything in it appears to be working as intended.
