inb4people start complaining about too many 4v1 type ga-

Too late.

How many even exist (or coming soon) on current PlayStation's, like eight?

Yea seems there’s about 8. For me it just so happens many of them are my favorite franchises and hard to resist: Friday the 13th, Ghostbusters, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Evil Dead. I enjoyed White Noise 2 and Evolve was my very first plat. I’d much rather take 4v1 over any other death match, battle royale, or other online versus modes due to it’s co-op aspect. Despite preferring single player, I don’t have a problem with 4v1 as much as others. To each their own, right.

Preorders now up. Preorder bonuses just give early to access to playable ghosts and other items. Interestingly there’s a higher priced Collector’s Edition but no details yet on everything it contains.

 

Standard edition, digital - $39.99

Standard edition, physical - $39.99

Collector’s Edition, physical - $69.99

Physical edition bonuses above + ???

C.E. cover art likely placeholder as it’s the same as the standard edition cover.

Assuming the trophies match the achievements, the list doesn’t look bad. This looked hella fun in the dev live play. Really looks like a pick up and play game for all ages and skill levels. Getting this for the family. I’m really happy they showed stuff off today, am hyped now.

Same company that gave us the badly broken, poorly supported already dead Arcadeggedon. Hard pass, how did they even get allowed to make a Ghostbusters game. I mean they release a new game then just 4 months later another, says everything.

I'm cautious about this game.

 

I liked Ghostbusters and the PS3 multplayer was amazing but I can see this being a game that doesn't stay around long.

I see it's 20 bucks right now on the PSN store. I'm gonna pick it up because I need a new MP game to sink my teeth into.

[jackmadrox]

What a fun game! I'm absolutely loving it. I dig the feeling of a true party game from this. There's no competitive feel to it, just a fun MP game to enjoy with friends. Haven't seen anybody rage quiit mid game or anything like that. Playing as your own customized ghostbuster is fun, but playing as a ghost is just as fun too.
