This game is an absolute must play for Ghostbusters fans or action game fans. It contains a rich tapestry of baddies to fight, excellent voice acting from all 4 Ghostbusters and fun and involving ghost busting mechanics. The only major letdown for this otherwise excellent game is the lack of any multiplayer support on the pc. One hopes it is something that can be added in via a patch or mod. Not having the opportunity to try the multiplayer I can't say for sure how much is missing but from what I hear it's not a whole lot. A major boon to this however is the much lower price tag on the pc, only $30 US.
On a side note for those of you who missed out, had you pre-ordered this game through GameStop you could have gotten a recorded message from Dan Ackroyd himself telling you your game will be available the next day.
