    It’s the perfect fan service addition to the Ghostbusters canon, and regardless of the all-female reboot or upcoming Ghostbusters 2020, this still stands up as that ‘third film’. The fact that it’s also a very good game frankly makes our toaster dance. [Issue#184, p.82]

    This may seem like an easy cash grab scheme to re-release the same game and play on the nostalgia people have for the Ghostbusters. But they have done a lot of work to upscale the graphics to make it feel like the game belongs on the Xbox One. It is still a good fun game and it does feel like a continuation from the movies and great that you feel involved in the story. If you can ignore the few minor annoyances, then this game still holds up as a decent game for anyone and not just long-time fans.

    Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered on Xbox One remains as fun and nostalgic as it did in 2009. With punchy combat, creepy exploration and a hilarious script that’s beautifully voice acted, it’s hard not to recommend this Halloween treat.

    Ghostbusters Remastered is a 3rd Person action Adventure following the events of the Classic Ghustbusters Movies. Originally released in 2009,Ghostbusters Remastered is a 3rd Person action Adventure following the events of the Classic Ghustbusters Movies. Originally released in 2009, Dan Aykroyd accompanied by the entire original cast, brought us what was to be the Third chapter in the Ghostbusters story. Utilizing the soundtrack, and voice lines from the 2009 release, experience the whole Ghostbusters team, Including Harold Ramis! You are the Ghostbusters new recruit, and new equipment tester, and by the sound of it... not the first. With a new Gozer exhibit at the museum, the anarchy of wild spirits spikes to new heights when something sets Ivo Shandors' evil architectural works back into motion. Tying everything we Loved from the classic movies together, the story paints a phenomenal picture and adds a new dimension to the already established lore. No matter if you're playing it again since the first release on the 360 or the One, or this beautiful remaster for the first time, you get to live the Ghostbusters dream. This game delivers the closest thing to strapping on a proton pack, and slamming ghosts into traps you can experience. The removal of Multiplayer is the only complaint I can muster about the latest release, but promise of a revamped version of multiplayer keeps my hopes high. This is like living a childhood dream for fans of the Classic Movies, and the loving dedication to Harold Ramis will help keep Egon alive for all of us on our beloved Xbox One consoles.… Full Review »

    Although the story and characters are fantastic, this ends up feeling more like a re-release than an improved experience.

    And yet, it's quite endearing. Probably because it doesn't take itself too seriously.    … Full Review »
