    Just finished this last night. Enjoyed most of it, there were a few ba$tard hard difficulty jumps, where they bombard you with cheap-shot dive-bombing enemies that come from all round, but after a bit of swearing and frustration and multiple tries at that part, the enjoyment came back. Thoroughly enjoyable for Ghostbusters fans, but not sure there'd be an awful lot of interest there for general gamers that aren't Ghostbusters fans.

    But who isn't a Ghostbusters far? :D

    Is there replay value? What about multiplayer?

    Wondering which will arrive first; my copy of GB or my RROD Xbox from repair. :(

    Had one shot of the Multiplayer so far, could be fun, but I was tired so didn't play it long enough to tell.
    I already wanna play through it again on the professional difficulty, as it was the "Experienced" one that I played it on.

    Oh no, that's a cakewalk compared to the bit I mean.
    Imagine crossing the stone gargoyles with the mini-puft creature swarm...

    When you had to break that arch? Ugh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    That's the one... >_<
    Lost count of how many times I had to re-try that! Should be fun on 'Professional' :eek:

    Just received mine this morning from videogamesplus.ca, only ordered last Sunday so I'm happy and no duty to be paid....will update my post later with some thoughts I was a big GB fan when I was younger.

    Id say it would be ok but I propaly wont buy it although one film game that I am looking foward to is Transformers 2 really want to buy it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 933 ✭✭✭Furp


    Really enjoying it so far, love all the talk from the characters and the trivia, injokes for those really familar with the films.

    some tough parts so far and frustrating in a few places but I'm really enjoying it.

    I like the look of the game and the graphics are great more so for all the particle effects then the finish.

    I also love in some of the levels that you will walk into an area and
    the room will go dark and when the lights come back on things have been moved around, or you turn your back and something might be different you turn back around like the hallway with mirrors

    The music is also great and really adds to the atmosphere.

    Only about 3 levels into Transformers. It's not amazing by any standards. Ghostbusters was a much better game, graphically, funwise and gameplay wise. Transformers isn't bad, but don't be expecting much. Oh, and the control system is silly. You have to hold down the right trigger to stay transformed.

    Ghostbusters is a bit of fun its really well written but by is it annoying and flustrating in places, I have it on the PS3 and when you die it takes 30 seconds yes 30 seconds to reload dont know if its like that on xbox but after installing a game that in fairness isnt that big it shouldnt take that long. I got to the dive bombing angels bit and died about 10 times having to wait for it to reload walk around the corner scan some thing get a cut scene then battle for a few mins die and have to go through it all again i gave up on it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    It's the same on the xbox. Unfortunate about how they messed up the PS3 graphics though.
    Those cherubs are a pain in the hole though!!!

    It's funny how that happened since the game was developed on PS3 then ported to xbox.

    Lovin the game at the moment, very funny.

    Ok fellas and felines I need an update. Where can I get this game with minimal (in order of importance):

    1. Hassle
    2. Delay
    3. Cost

    There must be a million websites in the states I could get it from, and some seem to be out of stock, but since y'all have had a bit more experience with importing than I have, perhaps you could advise me. Maybe a Top 5 websites? Thanks


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Just ordered mine off play-asia.com and its gonna take 5-15 days for it to be dispatched.

    WHAT WILL I DO TILL THEN!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,223 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT

    hey rizzla it was supposed to be dispatched at first and they then put it on backorder so i dont know whats going on!!

    im thinking of just waiting for pal release now im really upset with axelmusic big let down!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Can you not get a refund and buy elsewhere??

    Play asia say it will be shipped within 5-15 days and say nothing about back order or it being out of stock so i have layed my trust with them.

    Finally got my RROD Xbox back so played GB for first time yesterday! Loving it! Mind you Im a big GB fan.

    Didnt have alot of time to play it so just said Id play the Slimer/Sedgewick mission. Was about to turn it off and Stay Puft turned up so I was glued again!

    The in jokes and quips to the movies are great. I love the Vigo painting comments in the firehouse.

    Finished the single player on Experience last night. Was good fun. The final boss was rather easy but some of the stages in the cemetary are quite tough.

    Played a round or 2 of multiplayer afterward but its not that much fun.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    I played the demo which i probably shouldnt have because now im itching to get the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,814 ✭✭✭Nemanja91
