Was Genesis the only good Ghostbusters game ever?
>>11999492The pinball is really good if that counts
There is the 2008 one, but that's not retro
>>11999492The HAL Famicom / Game Boy title is pretty cool.
>>11999509HAL made a ghostbusters game??? Damn I need to try that
>>11999512Yeah man check it out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Ghostbusters_II
>>11999514I like the chibi graphics, looks cute. Also laughing at Winston being blue. Thanks Japan
>>11999492No, Genesis was a console.
>>11999492yes>>11999503doesnt count and was made by a pedo
What exactly is it that most of the good licensed games are japanese?It's weird you'd think westerners would want to protect their properties
>>11999567>was made by a pedoI would never let MJ babysit my kids but that doesn't mean I would stop listening to Thriller. It's a good pin.
>>11999492Bustin' makes me feel GOOD~!
>>11999492What's wrong with the arcade game?
>>11999492Playing as a kid, this game was scary as fuck. And super hard. Never made it to the end
>>12000761I made it to the end as a 14 year old, but died when the final boss had like 2 hitpounts left. That was painful.
>>11999492This version was actually pretty good too, despite being very different from the one everyone's familiar with.
>>12000806I remember buying both the PS2 and PS3 version and the store guy thinking it was weird because the PS3 version looked better and was next gen blablabla.I tried explaining that the PS2/Wii version was worth it becsuse of the cartoon aspect but he didnt get it.
Last time I checked the genesis was a console and not a game ESL
>>11999492The Real Ghostbusters arcade game was good
>>11999571Protect their properties from what, making money?There was a time when video games were just toys and IP holders (and fans) weren't autistic about established "lore" or "canon" and for a price video game developers could shit out any damn thing and slap an official movie license or IP on it.
Ghostbusters 2009 was officially the third movie, until they made a third movie and it was way worse
>>12003225Honestly the problem isn't the canon aspect, just the fact western licensed games tended to have bad controls and bad design while japanese licensed games (of japanese OR western properties) tended to have good controls and good design.
>>12003785When le heckin' wholesome Harold Raimos ghost showed up to save the day I had to wonder how we got to this point.
>>11999492The 2009 one is genuinely fantastic but it's not retro>>12003785It's less a third movie and more "what Aykroyd WANTED Ghostbuster 2 to be all along before the studio told him that would be way too fucking expensive"
>>12000806>>12000814Aren't they're they the same game just with different graphics styles? The PS2/Wii ver is trying to look like the cartoon, the PS3/360/PC ver is trying to look like the movies.
>>12004761There's considerable differences in both games despite following the same general plot.
>>12004761I'm a Ghostbusters fan so I got both, just a neat way to experience the same game twice.Shame that that wii proton wand controller never came out though.
>>12003821a former member turning up as a ghost was an idea rolling around for years when Murray was in peak dick mode, it's the nostalgia as reverence that makes my skin crawl about that film
