This looks good compared to its time. I remember watching one of the Ghost Busters animations when I was younger (dubbed in arabic) and I remember liking it.
Thank you @ahmadmanga, both for your up-vote and for stopping by. :c)
I'd have to agree. The graphics were not the worst aspect of this game by far - and it looked fairly good on both Atari and Amiga.
As for the 'Real Ghostbusters' cartoons of the 80s and 90s - they were actually pretty good from what I recall. Then again - its been a while and memories are only coming back in flashes.
Its certainly a franchise that 'could' use a 'proper' reboot. :c)
Thanks again!
So, which is better. Movie or game?
The movie is arguably better made than the game in this context.
As for whether movies or games 'in general' are better - you will find good and bad examples from both forms of media.
As for Ghostbusters? Its largely plagued by bad-to-mediocre games (even if they may still offer something in the form of learning) - and I feel that its fair to place responsibility for this squarely at Activision's feet.
