Ghostbusters: The Video Game....Which platform? Also discussion about the films and series and such.

[Crow550]

I didn't know to post this in the PC gaming area or Console, since I'm asking about both....


Anyways......Which platform should I get it for?

If Atari does what they did with the Riddick game. I don't want to pay for a game I can only install 3 times or some crap.

Like Noah Antwiler from the The Spoony Experiment says: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umnvziIZFNU


The Wii version looks fun, expect the cartoon apperence of it.


I would get both.......I might get both.....Just not when it comes out.

I want the Wii edition for the controls and multiplayer, but the pc for the cinematic look and feel for a movie like appearance.

So which to choose....

Umm, Xbox 360 version FTW?

I support the PC wherever possible in the hopes that some day we will get equal treatment, but I'd proably buy the Wii version also because it is different and I have both. I'll wait for it to get cheap though (PC prices spoil me).

He doesn't have a PS3 or a 360.

Wait for some reviews and others to try it. If it has nice motion sensor implementation, then get it. If not, get it for the pc.

 

[Miklebud]

Sega Genesis version FTW.

 

[Queasy]

The cartoony art style of the Wii is winning me over.

I still want to hear more about how well it plays...not just on the Wii but on the 360 and PS3 as well.

 

[AyashiKaibutsu]

NES version obviously

 

[SlitheryDee]

I'd get it for the PC personally. I gotta use all this expensive hardware for something.

 

[Babbles]

Get the Atari version. It was totally awesome.

 

[KMFJD]

I had the c64 version, it rocked!

 

[KMFJD]

double post!

Dan Akroyd said he liked the way the Wii version came out the best.

 

[Crow550]

Here is a trailer of the Wii version: http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects...er_trl_wii_041709.html

PC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyVGSGynYpg

I know graphics don't make a game as much as good game play does.

Both versions look good.... Again the PC version has got the cinematic look while the Wii version has multiplayer and controls.

So over all I think i'll get the Wii edition and wait till the PC version drops....I guess....

Cool thanks.


Oh I use to own the C64 & Sega Master version of the game and the pc version of the second....

The NES version was blah. The Sega Master was better. The C64 version had no boss fight. I could never beat the Master Version....

Ghostbusters 2 on PC was lame.

I heard the Genesis version of Ghostbusters is awesome.

 

[TreyRandom]

If you even have to ask the question, by all means, get the Wii version. For me, there's no contest: I'll definitely be getting the PC version.

 

[Zolty]

If it's not a wii sports or wario ware style game I see little point in playing it on the Wii if given a choice.

Go PS3 or in OP's case... Wii.

But... the crappy NES version had that "so-bad-it's-awesome" digitized voice when you started it! Doesn't that count for something?!

 

[LumbergTech]

Just in case anyone hasn't seen it, I suggest you go watch the angry video game nerd review of the old atari ghostbusters game

I wasn't sure about the cartoon graphics of the Wii at first, but its slowly winning me over. I might pick it up when it drops in price a little.

Interesting that Akroyd liked how the Wii version turned out the best.
