I really, really loved this game. Bear in mind I grew up with a Ghostbuster's lunch box and watching the cartoons, but the game isn't just good for nostalgia purposes...it stands up in its own right. Campaign was very fun, really brought the feel of the movies (ok, the first movie) to the game, and even has the original cast as voice actors.

There is also an online co-op mode for up to 4 players (like myself).

Trailer to get you pumped:

Who ya gonna call?


Edit - Good description of the online play. I haven't really gotten into this, but what I did was fun:
"The game's multiplayer component is strangely as exciting as the story, and a better implementation of the game's combat mechanic. Four players work together to capture ghosts, destroy evil relics, survive wave after wave of ghosts and demonic entities, and much more. Players choose a weapon specialization, a Ghostbuster (warning: everybody wants to be Peter Venkman), and whether or not to play a one-off "job" (another word for the various modes), or several jobs in a short campaign. Players earn cash towards rank upgrades, which bring better equipment and other enhancements. While the jobs are all cooperative, they're also a bit competitive as each player strives to be the best Ghostbuster, earning the most cash and therefore ranking higher than their teammates. Bottom line: the Ghostbusters multiplayer is better than it has any right to be."

Would love to play with some of you guys.
