Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered review

Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered takes the No. 1 spot because it is the franchise game that feels most like a third film and is still sold new at a low price. Saber Interactive's remaster, published by Mad Dog Games, features the voices and in-game likenesses of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson in an original story penned by Aykroyd and Ramis. You scan rooms and artifacts with the PKE Meter, wear ghosts down with the proton stream, and use experimental firing modes such as a slime string to fling ghosts into traps and solve puzzles. The Steam version costs $24.99, needs only an Intel i3 and 4 GB of RAM, and has full controller support. The limits are clear: the Steam listing is single-player only and Windows only, and the install takes 24 GB. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not play-test it for this list.
