Ghostbusters (1984)
Genres:Arcade
Themes:Fantasy, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player
Story:Ghostbusters is an action game that features an overhead-view and a side-view. From Ghostbusters HQ, the player must monitor a map of midtown Manhattan for "ghost alarms", as well as for casual, roaming spirits, and plot a route to the alarmed area. Once the route is plotted, the player then controls the purchased Ghostmobile as it drives through traffic. Here, the player is able to capture casual ghosts on the way if they are en route. When the haunted location is reached, the game switches to a side-view. Two of the Ghostbusters will take position, activate their proton beams, and toss a trap to the ground. The player must then use the two Ghostbusters to attempt to lead the ghost(s) over the placed trap. Once activated, the trap springs to capture any ghosts directly above it. A successful capture will earn the player money, which can then be used to purchase new Ghostbusters vehicles and new modifications for it. An unsuccessful capture will see the ghost fly away (after nastily sliming one of the Ghostbusters).Show more

Played the game on Atari 2600 and on C64 and it was great!
We dont need to talk about the soundtrack. Yeah, its beeping sound, but it is the additctive Ghostbusters song.
The game is not brutally hard, but not the easiest either for a kid. So back then I never made it through. But I was really amazed a few years later, when I played it again and found out how deep is goes for an A2600 game. In this early years it was everything but standard for a game to have so many different mechanics and levels. And not to forget that it was really associable with the movie - which was REALLYREALLY rare.
The game is not a gem - its a treasure of history.
The Nintendo version was terrible. Ok, that's out of the way.
The C64 version was a lot of fun. You move around the city, busting Slimers for cash. Repeat until the city gets flooded by so much PK Energy that the Marshmallow man shows up. Run between his legs, beat the game, use your hard earned cash in new game plus to buy a better car and more gear. Make sure you buy ghost bait every game so when the ghosts freak out and rush at one building, you can stop them from Voltroning and crushing a major part of New York (and losing you that precious cash).
Also, the chiptune soundtrack is weirdly annoying and yet incredibly satisfying. You'll basically hear the same few notes for an hour, but it will be a heavenly trumpet call leading you to glory and franchise riches. Fun times.
Oh yeah my Brother C64 game!!!!! =)
1985 i love this game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
