Ghostbusters

If there’s nothing good...in your console tray….what’cha gonna play?...Ghostbusters! (I will not apologize for that, because it just felt too good.) It’s been 25 years since the seminal comedy graced movie screens, and this week, Ghostbusters: The Video Game is finally being released, much to the delight of eager and adoring gamers everywhere. Based on everything that's been released about the game, it looks to at least be one hell of a ride.

The other big title this week is Guitar Hero: Smash Hits, a compilation of 48 of the franchises most popular tracks repurposed to support features seen in past games (duel drum pedal option on Expert, individual/band play for drums and vocals, Rock Star creator, etc.). If you're a die hard Guitar Hero fan and you don't mind paying for songs you've already played a thousand times, then this game has your name written all over it.

I'll be buying Guitar Hero: Smash Hits when it gets a reduced price tag not too far from now. Paying for songs twice isn't my thing. Besides, the music game market is getting flooded and I foresee price drops happening quickly. GH: Metallica has been on sale for $37.99 twice in the last few weeks already.

Ghostbusters Wii and PS3, PS3 for graphics and story, Wii for using nunchuck like proton pack and cheap way to get Amazon's limited edition bundle.

Is Guitar Hero becoming a seasonal thing now? Somebody should tell Activision to take better care of their beloved franchises and not to milk them to death. Better yet, tell them to call SEGA and ask to speak with Team Sonic.
