    Ghostbusters: The Videogame isn’t a bad game, but had more potential. Empty levels, ghosts that move too fast for the psp to move along and the sound show the symptoms of an average port. The gameplay itself is rather varied and the cutscenes are wonderful. Too bad the PSP didn’t get its own version of the game.

    At the end of the day, Ghostbusters for PSP isn't a bad game but seems like a bit more work would have helped push this over the thresh hold.

    Disappointing when compared to the PS3 version and even other PSP games. Could have bee a lot better.

    As a third-person-shooter on the PSP, Ghostbusters The Video Game is a distinctly average offering.

    Ghostbusters on PSP doesn't look, sound, or play very well and is best passed up for a home console version.

    A mediocre port of a merely decent original entry, resulting in a functional but hardly enticing take on the series. PSP action fans are probably used to this second-class status by now, but this one's strictly for the franchise die-hards.

    The PlayStation 3 version of Ghostbusters is a pretty solid game. This portable version is a very poor adaption with crappy controls, bad audio and bad graphics. If you haven’t played one of these versions, just go for the PlayStation 3 version, it’s a lot better.

The game is a real hoot and I highly recommend it for Ghostbuster fans. The character interaction is funny and fulfilling. The controls aren't bad, but once again we are reminded that the PSP needs a second stick on the right side. Ghostbuster fan? GET IT!… Expand

    It's basically the same game as the PS2/Wii version, which is a stripped down version of the Xbox 360 and PS3 version. The game would be fineIt's basically the same game as the PS2/Wii version, which is a stripped down version of the Xbox 360 and PS3 version. The game would be fine except the controls kill it. It's a weird combination of auto-aim and using the buttons to control your reticle. If they could have done a better job on the controls, this would have been a grand game.… Expand
