The year is 1991, it is two years since the events of Vigo the Carpathian plagued New York City. Now the Ghostbusters are going strong and looking to franchise out the business. You play as a new recruit in Ghostbusters International, and just as you get started with GBI, an ancient evil descends upon New York City and several familiar faces return. —Thomas Walters

Trivia
Dana Barrett was originally in the script, but Sigourney Weaver turned down the offer to play the role. However, Weaver changed her mind when the rest of the film's cast, including Bill Murray, were signed on, but by that time, Dana had been written out and the part had been rewritten as Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn (played by Alyssa Milano).

Goofs
When listening to messages on the answering machine back in the firehouse, if only one message remains on the machine it will say "You have one new messages." However, this is not so surprising, especially considering that it is 1991 technology. In those days, the extra circuitry required to eliminate that minor grammatical error in an answering machine may have substantially increased the unit's cost, and so been deemed unnecessary by the manufacturer.

Quotes
[the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man has appeared again]
Dr. Raymond Stantz: It wasn't me this time, I swear it.

Crazy credits
Despite being made in 2009, the intro movie for this game carries the 1980s Columbia Pictures logo on it, just like the original Ghostbusters movie. However, the Columbia logo seen before the main menu loads is the modern one.

Good Story, but bad survival tactics

This game has good story elements, but bad gameplay , as far as, the health and revive aspect. This game had been beaten by myself twice on ps3, but some missions seems close to impossible in the remastered version. For instance, it seems like I had the same problems with some other previous games that I played on my playstation. Well, right now, this is the best ghostbusters game available, besides The real ghostbusters the arcade game is easier and has a better gameplay. This game is fairly ok, compared to the one on ps3.
