Ghostbusters Review by: supersonic44 - 6/10

Ghostbusters: Not as bad as everyone says
Ah, Ghostbusters for NES.  How you are a fun game to hate.  Seriously, the nerd made a 3-part mini-series basically dedicated to this game and all the hate he gave it.  But, does this game really deserve all the hate?
Story:
This game basically follows the story of the film.  Gozer, (Or Gorza, as this game calls him,) "recruits" Dana Barrett and Louis Tulley to be the Gatekeeper and Zuul, respectively.  If you have any knowledge about games or the movie, you'd know that these guys are the bad guys.  Anyway, Zuul and the Gatekeeper take over a building in New York, send an army of ghosts to stop you, and you must stop them.  It's a story that really isn't that different from the movie, the only reason I'll give it a meh score is they don't try to deviate from the movie to much, which is a good thing, since the movie is so familiar to people.  6/10

Graphics:
THIS GAME IS UGLY!  I know this is a NES game, and the graphics aren't as good as they would be today, but, come on, this makes the NES look like it can't process anything.  If you want to play this game, hope you enjoy the colors gray and green.  In excess.  Animations are bland, even for the NES.  Also, if you're looking for a proofread fail, play this game until the end.  It's hilarious  Basically, this game could run on the Atari 2600 with a mild graphic downgrade, (which, it pretty much did.) 4/10

Sound:
Like the Ghostbusters theme?  Would you listen to it for a 3 hour period?  Still here?  OK, now would you listen to an 8-bit version for 3 hours?  Exactly.  The sound effects aren't the great either.  Stocked bleeps and bloops are expected, but, knowing how this games play, this needed more memorable sound. 3/10

Gameplay:
Alright, it may seem I just bashed this game to a new low, and that I hate it.  I don't.  Why?  This game did something different.  When I went into this game, I thought it would be a sidescroller, (like the Ghostbusters 2 NES game was.)  It's not.  It's a tycoon game.  Basically, you control the Ghostbusters logo and walk around the buildings of New York, looking for buildings to flash red.  You then drive to the flashing red building, and fight ghosts to get money.  After you reach a cap on money or play for a little bit, you go to the building "Gorza" is at, climb the stairs to fight him.  The tycoon elements come in when you realize you have to buy stuff.  You have to buy ghost traps, the Ghostbusters weapons, etc.  You can switch out weapons to have different experiences.  Aside from the driving scenes, this game actually plays Really good.  7/10.

Interesting thing about this game:
It's end screen.  Seriously, look it up.  It's worth a laugh or two.

Overall:
The gameplay of this game saves it.  If you can deal with repetitive graphics and HORRIBLE sound, it's not that bad of a game. 6/10

Ghostbusters Game Description

Based on the movie of the same name, the Ghostbusters are the ones to call who will "bust" any ghost hauntings. It does this through the use of nuclear accelerated "proton packs" and traps, whereby the ghosts can be captured and transferred to a secure storage facility. However New York City has suddenly become a very haunted place, and the number of ghosts has suddenly increased. The Ghostbusters must reduce the paranormal (PK) level in the city, representing ghost power, before the Temple of Zuul awakens and ressurects an evil goddess, Gozer.Ghostbusters is an action game that combines an overhead view and a side-view. From Ghostbusters HQ, the player must monitor the map of New York City for "ghost alarms" as well as casual spirits, and plot a route to the alarmed area. The player then controls the Ghostbuster vehicle as it drives through traffic. Here, the player is able to capture casual ghosts on the way if they are en route. Once at the location, the game switches to a side-view. Two of the ghostbusters will take position and activate their proton beams and toss a trap to the ground. The player will attempt to maneuver the ghost(s) over the placed trap. Once activated, the trap attempts to capture any ghosts directly above it. Successful capture will earn the player money, which can then be used to purchase new Ghostbusters vehicles and new modifications for the vehicle. Unsuccessful capture will see the ghost fly away.As the game progresses, the PK energy of the city increases. Ghostbusters must keep it under critical levels by being constantly successful at ghost captures. Eventually the Temple of Zuul will activate, and if the PK levels are still manageable, the Ghostbusters can venture there for a final showdown with Gozer.

 To start the game, you load it and then reset game. The plugin initially thinks the ROM is corrupt, but on a reset/refresh it loads.
