There's something strange in the neighborhood, who ya gonna call? GHOSTBUSTERS! Bill Murray and company have made the delight of a generation in 2 films marked in my teens. Ghostbusters, the game is a deserved tribute that comes 20 years after the PlayStation 3.

The story goes up some time after the second movie. For a change, New York is being attacked by all sorts of ghosts and evil spirits.

The four main actors are represented faithfully in the game and give voice to their characters. The player does not control any of the Ghostbusters known. Instead, go down in history as a new recruit and follow the orders of the veterans. The mechanics is an action game in the third person, but with a very special weapon.

Have a proton pack just for me is a dream come true. This weapon that fires beams of light and the ghost fry breakfast is one of the coolest accessories and geek in the history of cinema. More peaceful, the PKE Meter puts us in a first-person perspective, with night vision. This gadget is used to find ghosts, find articles and do a scan to the spirits in order to identify their properties and weaknesses.

Our equipment is highly developed prototypes, but can also lead a series of upgrades that are acquired whenever we have money to spend. The system to capture the ghosts is fun but it is something repetitive throughout the game. Reach them until they consume energy, drag them from one place to another and catch them, are moves that we will repeat many times. Another problem is the difficulty level that has some unexpected peaks that can take the player to despair. In these moments I remember that there are action games and better for the PS3.

There is an online multiplayer mode that allows ghost hunt with some friends. In the various cooperative modes, we can play with all the characters, something that should please fans.

Ghostbusters has good graphics, but nothing extraordinary. The dialogues are funny and the music in the movie continues to be addictive. In the technical field, Ghostbusters is a slightly above average.

Although not a great game, Ghostbusters is much better than the film adaptations that we used. The participation of writers and actors and cult status that the saga has, as the key to the outcome. The note is positive, but there is much room for improvement.

  • Featuring original
  • True to the movies
  • Gameplay reasonable
  • Difficulty poorly balanced

    I really like the play (not yet finished) but the graphics leave something to be desired, and those loading screens looooooonnnnngggggooooooossssss of when we have to repeat a level only if they can handle because the background music is the theme of the original movie soundtrack hehehehehe ...
